After watching this movie in the early days, I always felt I wanted to write something, but because I read less books and my literacy level could not keep up, I was stranded. I revisited it last night and felt that I really wanted to write something. I felt helpless and couldn't hold it, so I wrote a few sentences to kill time. This is an American film narrating social drug abuse, in which Mexico and the United States are used as two main lines, and then many branches are extended, intertwined with each other, seemingly intricate, but with clear thinking. The film has bright colors from beginning to end, with two main lines filled with warm and cool colors. Although the film lasts for 2 hours and 24 minutes, many scenes are memorable because of the color scheme. The one that impressed me most in the film was the two main line leaders, the American lawyer Wakefield and the Mexican police Gordon. Wakefield was a judge in Ohio. He was appointed by the state as an anti-drug officer and stood in the United States for drug control. At the highest point, he holds the economic lifeline of many companies. He has devoted his life to anti-drugs and has also gained a great political arena. Gordon, an authentic Mexican policeman, understands the “rules of the rivers and lakes” and also understands his own. Duties, after going through all kinds of undercover agents who risked their lives, they also completed their duties. Since there are too many branches in the film, I won't introduce them one by one. This film truly reflects the shortcomings of American society. The psychological description of the characters is extremely delicate. The first thing to note is that this film is not a regular underworld drug-trafficking movie. There are no fierce gun battles, hot fights, and passionate music. He is more similar to a real record of the sex scenes that he is good at in American movies, like "The Hurt Locker". Although it is shot against the background of the battlefield, the film is more like a film that reflects the state of society. The same goes for "Drug Net", where he pays more attention to the psychological description of the character, his thoughts and what the director wants to express. The film uses an interstitial shooting technique, and it takes 147 minutes to form countless small scenes, and then they all converge into the main line of the film. These scenes seem to be unrelated, but as the plot develops, it will gradually become clear. When I watched this movie for the first time, the switching of various pictures and the disgusting translation made me feel at a loss for a while, but many problems became clear during the second time. The film is very ironic for the character designer of the lawyer. The protagonist fights against drugs all his life, while his daughter who is both good and academic is taking drugs. This is a huge blow to him. However, the character has also experienced something from it and created it. The first scene that touched me the most in the whole movie: a press conference where Wakefield will announce a series of anti-drug laws and regulations that he enacted. This is also the beginning of his succession to the Drug Administration. However, a few days before this Over time, he was looking for his daughter who ran away from home because of drug abuse. On the podium, his thoughts were confused and depressed. Under the haunting of countless flashing lights, he interrupted his speech, bowed his head and meditated, and said that he was shocked. A word from the field: "I can't do this" and then continued to say in a frustrated tone: "If we declare war on drugs, it means that many families will become battlefields and loved ones will become enemies. Go to war." After speaking, he left straight away. My feelings about this were extremely profound. After that, he found his daughter who had just finished taking drugs and was preparing to have sex with a stranger in a hotel. At that time, I felt that the protagonist must be mad and beat the stranger and then be mad at the daughter. However, he just walked gently to the bed, picked up the delirious daughter, and said softly: Sorry, Dad is with you. Seeing this, I can only sigh, the differences in different cultures of education have given us an indescribable sense of distance. And the second touching scene is the police Gordon. The American police found Gordon and hoped to cooperate. The latter came undercover and provided information about the Mexican drug lord, so as to catch them all in one go. In the first negotiation between the two sides, the conditions were discussed. , And when the Americans asked if they wanted money, Gordon said: Do you like baseball? A baseball field with street lights, the kind where children can play at night. At first I didn’t understand these lines very well, and the reason for translation made me very puzzled. It felt like when I was talking about conditions, Gordon changed the subject and hid his intention deeply. Finally, Let a lion open his mouth. Of course, I guessed wrong again... (Cultural differences) The director put this condition in the last 40 seconds of the movie. Mexico, at night, but still warm, comfortable music sounded, a baseball field, the street lights are bright, the children on the field are playing baseball attentively, the whole picture is filled with laughter and applause, and then the camera cuts to a familiar one. Face, Gordon. At this time, I understood everything, and at the same time I admired the director's shooting techniques. And in the tens of seconds above this last clip, there is a room rendered in cool colors, a podium, and many audiences below. A girl is standing on the stage introducing herself and telling her past, the next one is The father hugged his wife and looked at the girl on the stage tenderly. He was Wakefield who gave up his job and helped his daughter to get rid of drugs with his true feelings. At this point, the entire film has also come to an end. Through the 147-minute interpretation and the interleaving of countless fragments, what the director wants to express is also vividly reflected. The suppression of drugs is endless, and drug addicts need more attention from family and society. Children need better education. A baseball stadium may change the fate of many people. However, the law is only a restriction, and true feelings can change human nature.
