"Peaky Blinders" (Peaky Blinders) is a British drama that I like very much, partly because of the male lead’s handsome and personal charm, and partly because of the excellent production of the drama and the picturesque scenes. The song "Red Right Hand" highlights the British style and has a magical appeal that makes people want to stop.
"Blood Gangster" is a relatively niche drama, and there are not many articles about this drama, which is the reason why I write Wen Amway. The four seasons have been broadcast, and each season is 6 episodes in length. This article is a plot analysis of the last three episodes of the first season.

[Reminder: There are some spoilers below]
Whenever a major decision needs to be made, Tommy likes to toss a coin to decide where to go. Life is just like two sides of the same coin, with light and hope on the front and darkness and despair on the back.
While the lost weapons brought opportunities for the Shelby family's career, they were also endless troubles. Tommy had to deal with the consequences of taking risks: On the one hand, he had to deal with the police, communists, and the Irish Republican Army to seek the best interests of the family; on the other hand, his brothers and sisters were not very worried. , He needs to take steps to ensure that they are on the right path in life.
Although the younger brother John has four children, he is still immature. John hasn't renewed the string since his wife's death. One day he suddenly proposed to marry the prostitute Liz Stark.
Tommy used to go to a brothel to get drunk, and he used to be Liz's client. For his brother, Tommy tried Liz again to see if she was still returning to her old career, but as he expected, the past was the same. He told John the truth about these things.
I have to say that John is a man of love and righteousness. Although his brother messed up his marriage, the first thing he thought of was brotherhood. No way, who made Tommy his brother? The Shelby family should take care of each other more.
Unexpectedly, Tommy had other plans for John. John thought that there would be a fierce battle before him, but he did not expect that he was deceived to the wedding scene. I treat you as my own brother, but you treat me as my cousin. John, with a dumb face, didn't expect this kind of operation.
Tommy’s abacus is very good. Through the marriage of his younger brother John and the Lee family, one can ease the relationship between the two families and avoid greater casualties and losses. Second, they can gather the strength of the two families to deal with Billy Kemper.
If they refused on the spot, a bloody battle would erupt between the two families. John could only bite the bullet and go. Later, he found that the bride did not look as bad as he had imagined. It seemed to be a farce tied to family interests. He never wanted to achieve something. Jiayuan.
The younger brother John’s relationship issue is resolved, but the older brother Arthur has a problem.
Although the eldest brother Arthur is the nominal leader of the Razor Party, it is Tommy who really holds the power. He has been living in the shadow of Tommy. When someone asked him about the Razor Party, he didn't know the answer at all, because Tommy didn't tell him many confidential things.
Arthur, who was unable to use his ability, remained depressed until the arrival of their father seemed to give him a glimmer of hope, and he wanted to prove that he could also do something like Tommy.
Their father is a complete bastard, everyone in the family knows this, only Arthur still doesn't believe it. Not only did his father give him false hope, he also defrauded all his money. Arthur confronted his father at the station, wanting to get his money back, but his father left this sentence: "If a thief is hungry, and stealing to satisfy his hunger, people are not contemptible." He also threatened that if his son continues to struggle, He doesn't mind trying to kill the net.
When Arthur came home, he wanted to hang himself, but he never thought that the hook of the rope would fall off. Tommy comforted Arthur with his status as a partner in Shelby and one-third of the shares. Using Tommy's ridicule, it is an extremely stupid act to commit suicide by hanging himself. Effect.
Tommy is also a relatively contradictory person. He values his family more than anything else, and he has been compromising on issues involving his family. For example, fulfilling the love between my sister and Bolshevik Freddy Thorne, for the sake of her sister's happiness, giving up the exchange of interests between Freddy Thorne and the police.
But Freddie Thorne was arrested, but Tommy’s kindness caused a misunderstanding by Aunt Polly. Polly thought it was Tommy who informed the police.
In the end, Tommy sent his right-hand man to robbery, and tried to unite the members of the Shelby family together to fight against foreign enemies.
There is only one thing that can deceive a smart person like Tommy, and that is love. When his family didn't understand him for a while, he once desperately talked to Agent Grace, and even told Grace about the time of their actions.
When confronted with the Irish Republican Army in the tavern, she fired and he killed people. They exposed each other's true colors.
They are actually the same kind of people, evading their own demons, hiding their fragility under the appearance of indifference.
When having sex, it is accompanied by a melodious classical soundtrack, which means that British dramas can be so sang, xin, bing, and ya (kuang). If this paragraph were in an American drama, it must be a simple and crude cry.
Chief Inspector Campbell, as Grace's superior, as a friend of Grace's father, actually fell in love with Grace and even proposed marriage, which also caused many fans to complain.
Under Tommy's influence, Grace is no longer full of hatred and decides to abandon her spy status and terminate the operation.
Campbell can only find female (ji) scholars (nv) from other countries, where he can release his depressed emotions.
The Shelby family got the first legal horse betting license from Billy Kembau, which does not satisfy Tommy. He wants to replace Billy Kembor, join the official horse betting association, and enter the upper class.
Because Grace informed Campbell, not only did Tommy lose the weapons and the bargaining chip to negotiate with the police, the original plan to raid Billy Kembau was also disrupted, and his chances of winning were lost by a few points.
Unexpectedly, just as the two parties were preparing to fight, Tommy's sister Ada suddenly appeared, and she was moved by emotion, and there was no large-scale duel between the two sides.
The stupid Billy Kemper failed to attack Tommy, but was killed. I have to say that the big boss in the first season is a bit weak. There is no more fierce role in Birmingham. As the family business expands, we will I saw extremely threatening characters appear in the fourth season.
Tommy struggled to win the duel with Ken Bo, and Shelby Brothers Co., Ltd. became the country's third-largest legal horse betting company.
Although Tommy struggles to control his steering wheel and wants to control everything within his control, he finds that there are always people and things far out of control, and he is inevitably restrained by personal emotions.
Chief Inspector Campbell once had a conversation with Tommy:
Campbell: "People like us are destined to be lonely, and we have to pay for the love we get." Tommy: "I have family."
Although Polly and Tommy often disagree, Polly often does ideological work for family members because she knows that everything Tommy does is for the family. Under the background of that era, if you want to survive, you can only be more fierce and powerful.
It is difficult for us to answer the old question raised by Aristotle in "Ethics": How should a person spend his life? When Tommy tried to make his desires a reality and use his ambition to achieve his dreams, it is hard to say that he took a successful step. In the meantime, what price he paid and what he lost, the bitterness and taste can only be silent by himself. Experience.
