There are some movies that take a more tortuous path. It may not have a good response when it is released, and it seems to be forgotten. However, time is the best proof. After years of refining, the relics of the sea will always see the light of day again. Thirty years, from the United States to the Berlin Film Festival, and then to CC to include it in the list of video discs, the creator of the classic drama "The Detective Pretty Baby" entered the industry, the first self-written, directed and acted "Breakout in Silence", which is such a film. Dream chase.

This is a very typical noir film. Solitary killers, gangsters, strong fatalism and similar movie shooting techniques are all presented in this film. The film was filmed in 1961. The director Allen Baron was a cartoonist before shooting this series, but he fell in love with the film because he went to the studio with his friends to get in touch with related work. Later, he studied film courses, and finally made this set of " Bursting in Silence".

This is a set of extremely low-cost works, and the length of the film is only 77 minutes. But the director's effect is by no means inferior to other noir classics. The film is about the unexpected trivia encountered by a killer in the process of assassinating a member of the Mafia. The side shows a lone killer who escapes a life full of hardships by loneliness, and finally embarks on the road of destiny. The director couldn't find the right actor due to resource issues, only to realize that he was the best actor for the role when feasible. This "Lone Killer", who appeared before Allen Dillon, displayed "humanized loneliness" and was a success.

The film brought Allen Baron to Hollywood that year, but nothing better. On the contrary, he stepped into the TV circle and made hundreds of TV shows. In the documentary reviewing the bits and pieces of the film, Allen Baron revisited his hometown, and his words are full of life feelings, and he also has a bleak sadness and helplessness about Hollywood. Thirty years later he wowed audiences with his films at the Berlin Film Festival. The dream-seeking work of the past may be the director's only classic masterpiece. It finally stepped from the dark to the light and won thunderous applause and praise from everyone. Last year, the film launched a CC version of the DVD, and entered the threshold of the movie hall.

The journey of chasing a dream always touches people's hearts, no matter whether it is successful or not. Whether you like film noir or not, this is a must-see.

    The process is very delicate, and the movie is like a killer tutorial. Are you sure that it will not bring bad children? The part after the task is completed is very worrying, the tight music, the running of the escape stairs, and the calmness on the street, I am fortunate to have survived the catastrophe, and what should come is finally here.

    The voice-over is a bit self-righteous, killers are killers regardless of success or failure, and no matter how crazy the commenters say, they are also villains. It is also said that people are afraid of the sensationalism of sweating or something. Try to kill yourself.
