Analysis of "Never Compromise"

Tressa 2022-03-23 09:01:28

1. Linear narrative structure
2. The composition of the characters promotes the narrative of the story quite thoroughly. For example, Irene's impulse, in her own car accident lawsuit, scolded the other party, causing the appeal to fail. However, in the face of Eide's lawyer When he was obstructed, he used his impulsive and blunt words to gain the right to stand up for himself. In the P&G case, in the face of the disdain and blow of the cooperating female lawyer, he also responded in this blunt and daring way. In the same way, it is this uneducated way to know the BF with tattoos and beards, and in the process of getting along with the BF, he sticks to his own position, does not compromise, does not give in, and actively deals with the difficulties in life.
3. At the beginning of the audio-visual language, when explaining the characters, combined with the characteristics of the heroine, the choice is in place, no nonsense. The first scene, Irene's interview, through the conversation between Irene and HR, let the audience understand Irene's character and family status, a simple look, Irene's face close-up response, these simple shots, just I told the audience about the results of Irene's interview; when I picked up the car, Irene got a ticket from Irene's old car, the chewing gum on the door armrest, Irene's swear words, got into a car accident, and the nanny resigned, shouting for her nine-year-old son and six-year-old daughter, hug her. With a 10-month-old boy, he met cockroaches in the kitchen with the cry of the youngest son. This series of trivial matters intuitively showed the poor living conditions of the heroine. The footage is simple and the amount of information is quite large.
4. The character's motives and desires are clear. In the face of a bad life, it is only for job hunting; when encountering lawyer Ed, it is only for rights protection; careful character, discovering the poisonous water in the house purchase case, tirelessly researching, and returning to the key of the P&G case, The persevering family visited the family and finally obtained the key evidence for the victory of the P&G case.
5. In each scene, there is a corresponding emotional point. And the corresponding character values ​​are clear, and the characters are three-dimensional and full.

PS: The heroine's chest always feels like it is going to jump out, and it jumps out...

    Reminds me of the lead poisoning incidents in China for several years. The solutions in the two places are really different. In addition, I saw the heroine Catherine in CSI and Hodgins in Bones.

Erin Brockovich quotes

  • Erin Brockovich: Are you going to be something else that I have to survive? Because... to tell you the truth... I'm not up to it.

  • Ms. Sanchez: [at the meeting with the PG & E lawyers] Let's be honest here. Twenty million dollars is more money than these people have ever dreamed of.

    Erin Brockovich: Oh see, now that pisses me off. First of all, since the demur we have more than 400 plaintiffs and... let's be honest, we all know there are more out there. They may not be the most sophisticated people but they do know how to divide and $20 million isn't *shit* when you split it between them. Second of all, these people don't dream about being rich. They dream about being able to watch their kids swim in a pool without worrying that they'll have to have a hysterectomy at the age of *twenty*. Like Rosa Diaz, a client of ours. Or have their spine deteriorate, like Stan Blume, *another* client of ours. So before you come back here with another lame ass offer, I want you to think real hard about what your spine is worth, Mr. Walker. Or what you might expect someone to pay you for your uterus, Ms. Sanchez. Then you take out your calculator and you multiply that number by a hundred. Anything less than that is a waste of our time.

    [Ms. Sanchez picks up a glass of water]

    Erin Brockovich: By the way, we had that water brought in specially for you folks. Came from a well in Hinkley.

    Ms. Sanchez: [Puts down the glass, without drinking] I think this meeting is over.

    Ed Masry: Damn right it is.
