Roman Polanski’s masterpiece is about a dark scene of murder. The narrative structure is cleverly constructed, and the story is slowly spread out without leaking. The intrigue of the characters and the intricacies of the incident are not revealed until the last moment. The film is aimed at the black gold politics of the supremacy of money in American society. Innocent or kind-hearted people are gradually dying, while the black hands recklessly act as "saviors" to reap profits. The "Chinatown" law, which is almost a predator of the weak, makes this civilization manifest. The barbarity of this world. Roman Polanski combined film technique with practical meaning almost perfectly, and achieved this classic.
