The title of the film is a bit confusing. After all, after watching this film, I don't know who Raymond Snitch is. Of course, Wikipedia will tell you that Ramon Snitch is the author of the novel based on the film.
The storyline is relatively old-fashioned, but the soundtrack or something goes well with the direction of the story. The heroine, violet, looks beautiful when she doesn't wear a wedding dress and in regular clothes, which is my favorite type.
Violet and his younger brother Klaus, Sunny's parents died in a sudden fire. The fire not only took away their parents, but also the home where they grew up.
As the executor of the parents' will, the banker Pore, among their distant relatives, is looking for guardians for the three siblings.
First they were taken to the home of Earl Cole. Earl Cole is an actor, but also a down-and-out actor. He took in the three siblings entirely because he coveted the inheritance left to them by Violet's parents. At the Earl's house, the three siblings help the Earl with various chores, such as cooking. Even so, the three orphans were still a burden to the count. Once the earl took the three of them out, when he returned, the earl showed a rare kindness, stopped halfway, went to the grocery store and claimed to help the three brothers and sisters buy some food. As the train whistle got closer and closer, the three finally realized that the Count had parked the car on the rails, and all the doors of the car were firmly locked. Violet is a smart girl who makes various inventions before their home is destroyed, so she is often able to come up with strange ideas in danger. Through the half-opened car window, the three of violet joined forces and threw a rope to the control switch in the distance. With a hard pull, the train changed its tracks, and the three were out of danger. At this moment, the banker Poe also passed by, and saw the three siblings left alone in the car, and even Violet was still in the driver's seat. Although he did not know or believe what the earl did to the three siblings, he was still brooding about the fact that the earl allowed underage children to drive, so he cancelled the earl's guardianship.
The second guardian is a scientist, or more precisely, a snake lover, and the house is full of all kinds of strange snakes. Although the house is a bit scary, the scientist is kind to the three siblings. In order to better study snakes, scientists plan to take the three siblings to Peru. The scientist's assistant is sick, and the new assistant, Violet, recognizes at a glance that it is Count Cole in disguise. Scientists have long discovered the fake identity of Earl Cole. During the night, Earl Cole killed the scientist and pretended that the scientist was attacked by a snake. The scientist is dead, are the orphans going to Peru with Cole's disguised assistant? The next day, when the police inspected the scene, the youngest sister, Sunny, played with the so-called poisonous snake and exposed the lie of the poisonous snake's murder. Cole ran away long before the sheriff and others realized it.
The third guardian was a widow, said to be the aunt of the three Violet. The widow's house hangs alone by the lake, and the widow has made all kinds of strange house rules. One day, my aunt took them to the market to buy vegetables, but they met an enthusiastic fisherman. The three of Violet saw at a glance that the fisherman was pretending to be Earl Cole. When the three of Violet bought daily necessities at the market and returned home, they found that the glass facing the lake was broken, and there was still aunt's will on the table next to them. In the will, they were to be handed over to the guardianship of the fisherman whom my aunt had newly met. Aunt is a very strict person, especially can't stand grammar mistakes, but there are many mistakes in the will. After splicing these erroneous letters, in order to escape the tragic fate of being guarded by the earl cole, the three rowed to the cave specified in the will. There, they found their aunt and persuaded her to go back with them. On the way back, a large number of leeches in the lake attacked the boat, and there were many leaks on the boat. At the critical moment, a boat came to the rescue, but the person on the boat was indeed a fisherman disguised by the Count. The three siblings were forced to board the Earl's boat, and the banker Pore's boat also appeared at this time. The earl pretended to save the three siblings, deceived the trust of the banker, and regained custody of the three siblings.
After learning that only the three brothers and sisters are adults, they can obtain their inheritance, and before that, the personal safety of the three must be guaranteed, and the earl can't wait. He wants to take violet as his wife, even though violet is only a 14-year-old aunt Liang, not yet the legal age for marriage. As long as the guardian's consent is obtained, the earl can marry Violet, and Violet's guardian is the earl. The drama-loving judge was fooled by the Count to participate in the performance and presided over his and Violet's wedding. Sunny was locked in a cage and hung up high. Unless violet agrees to her and the earl's wedding, the earl will quickly throw sunny's cage down. On the day of the wedding, the guests were full, and the wedding ceremony was going on one by one, and it was almost the last one. klaus climbed to the attic and rescued sunny. In the attic, Klaus also found a huge convex lens facing his burnt home. The wedding ceremony continued, and the marriage certificate was signed with the names of the Count and Violet. Violet exposed the true face of the earl in front of the guests, but with a legally recognized marriage certificate, what can they do. The earl held his marriage certificate aloft, showing off his strength. Klaus adjusts the convex lens and burns the marriage certificate. The guests stepped forward to catch the earl and handed it over to the police.
The orphans are finally free from the Count's clutches. However, where will the banker pore send them next?
