In the 1930s, the United States promulgated Prohibition. This means that everyone can't drink, and can't buy or sell alcoholic beverages. The reason is that alcohol is the root of crime. This is a bit like the reform of public ownership in the former Soviet Union, which sold everything that could be sold to private ownership. The reason is that public ownership is the root of the country's backwardness. Both of these are the same nonsense, and the little monster on his chest has a big hood. Just like the former Soviet Union, the prohibition of alcohol in the United States has spawned a group of wealthy upstarts - bootleggers. These criminals active in the Great Lakes region of the north of the United States are in suits and cigars, holding cigars in their hands that even the US military consumes. The terrific Thomson machine guns run amok. The detectives also had lingering fears about Thomson's exuberant firepower. What is the first lesson for the police: go home safely after get off work. Of course, the dollar is more effective than bullets for most police officers and officials. It is against this background that the story of the film takes place.
There are two main clues in the film, and the title of the film can be understood from the chaotic shootout.
1. Wine: The director added another kind of liquid—blood when wine appeared.
Part 1: At the beginning of the film, Capone talks to reporters. Everyone drinks, and I sell alcohol, and I'm a businessman. The barber then scratched his face and saw blood.
No. 2: The cafe where the little girl was bombed. The letters on the name of the shop are very vague, but the three letters of DRY are very clear, implying that alcohol is not sold here. Then the liquor dealer blew up the entire cafe.
No. 3: Jimmy took Nas and others and directly copied Capone's warehouse. Capone's men came to stop him and Jimmy punched the butt twice. No blood? ? ? Don't worry, at the next banquet, Capone hit the fat man with a bat.
No. 4: Oscar kills three gangsters on the border bridge. Saw the liquor in the truck coming out of the bullet holes and took a sip.
Spot 5: Jimmy is waiting for Nass at home, takes a bottle from the kitchen oven and pours a glass of wine. He was later shot and killed by Malone.
These places also illustrate the reasons for prohibition. It implies that alcohol and violence are interdependent, and there is blood when there is alcohol. This stuff can't be banned. Look at the places where these things happen, Jimmy's house (private place), cafes, hotels (public place), Canada-US border (every corner of the motherland is spared). It is said that the sovereign territory of a country includes these private places, public places, and even border issues that are unclear to neighboring countries. So not only should alcohol be banned, but it should also be banned nationwide.
Look, Prohibition is right. Totally worth defending by an official like Nas. But yes, yes, yes, right?
2. Right or wrong?
The main theme of the film is absolutely rooted in red seedlings. The bootlegger represented by Capone violated national laws and was defeated by the heroic police officers headed by Nas. I'm so happy to see that the good guys beat the bad guys. Wash and sleep, your sister is completely wrong.
At the beginning of the film, Capone talks to reporters.
what am i doing? I reflect public opinion. (Identify, democrat) The
people want to drink, everyone knows it. (The reporters at the scene laughed, we are also the people, we must know, to show that Capone’s last sentence is
true ) I am just a prophet, I sell wine, I am just a businessman (I serve the people)
The interests of the people are fundamental Interests, the needs of the people are the fundamental needs. It seems that Capone hasn't slept in his politics and Chinese class. In some senses, the state gave Capone the opportunity to speculate and make a fortune, allowing him to go further and further down the road of crime. Without Prohibition, he'd just be an ordinary businessman.
If breaking the law is a bad person, then the righteous Nas, Jimmy, Oscar, and Downs are not good people.
Jimmy instigated Nas from the beginning to use extreme tactics against Capone, and took Capone's warehouse without a warrant. The interrogation of the accountant was also a forced confession, and the head of the other person was shot directly, scaring the accountant to the point of urinating. He is also hoarding alcohol at home. Articles are illegal.
Downs changed his gender name and held a gun to his head after being spotted by Jimmy. If such a person were a good person, the prisons all over the world should be closed.
Oscar is the most innocent, but he also drank alcohol.
Nas had a complete epiphany after Jimmy's death. Directly pushing Ma Long from the rooftop and falling to his death, the Red Army also had conditions for preferential treatment of prisoners. In order to contain Capone, he threatened the judge to accept bribes without any evidence.
Don't worry about the details of right or wrong, to beat a bastard, you have to use some bastard way.
Back to the title, what is the director talking about in the whole film?
US law? It seems so, but most of the people in the film are touched, and this statement is difficult to hold.
Looking at the press conference when Nas took office in the film, the reporter asked: What is your opinion on the prohibition of alcohol. Nas replied: This is national law.
At the end of the film, Nas walked out of the office building. The reporter told him that the prohibition order was going to be lifted. What is his next plan? Nas replied: I'll go have a drink first. Nas is also the people, and like Capone said, he also wants to drink, and he doesn't answer that it's the law anymore.
Nas' victory means the abolition of Prohibition, and democracy to government, such as Nas against Capone. Seemingly weak, but indomitable and never destroyed. The fight goes on until victory.
Untouchable is democracy.
