I usually like to watch crime-related content, so halfway through the film, I realized that the main story line was adapted from the case of "Angel Killer" Amanda Knox. It's just that the family environment of the daughter involved has changed from a well-off middle class to a red neck in the south, and the place of occurrence has been transferred from Italy to Marseille, France. In reality, the British girl who was killed and the American girl involved in the case were only roommates, not lovers.
Talk about the interesting part of the movie. The family environment and the male protagonist’s character are deliberately set as the image of the bottom red-necked migrant worker from the south, outspoken and reckless, and not good at socializing. of helplessness and confusion in an exotic environment. What Italy and France have in common is that they both insist on their own language environment, but Italians are still relatively enthusiastic, and it is really difficult to do without French in France. The Americans, who have always felt welcome in the center of the world, suddenly became "outsiders" and lost their superiority. This replacement of status and situation is in stark contrast to the leader's warm speech at the end and the people's welcome home. It seems that the world is as black as crows, and you can only rely on yourself outside, and no one cares if you live or die. Once rescued, it is a collective credit.
The film also touches on Europeans' generally one-sided understanding of American politics (such as whether to vote for Trump, whether to control guns or not), satirizing the United States' rampage and being unable to truly let go of its stature and pride to integrate into other cultures, as well as the European Public Prosecution Law. Weakness of the system and policing issues. Today's humiliation of beauty and humiliation of the law 2/2.
The role of the father and his redemption is an important thread in the film. Thinking that Ma Ma has started acting as a father now, I suddenly feel old too? Unlike most reorganized families who love their other half and then love the house and Udi to love each other's children, I tend to think that Bill loves her mother because he loves Maya. And his love for Maya comes from the guilt of his own daughter for years of neglecting to take care of and communicate with him: he takes care of Maya, picks her up to and from school, brings snacks, buys jerseys, watches cartoons, and even takes her to the ball game... these The things he may have never done for Alison, the fact that he never played a good father role, and the sins that indirectly caused his daughter to go abroad and "wrongfully" imprisoned, are all redeemed by Maya. One of the more touching points is that before being forced to leave, Bill specifically said I love you to Maya, which is the deepest apology and love from a father to his two daughters. I praise the little girl's acting skills. She shows the image of the little girl who is precocious, precocious, and longing for father's love. The performance is natural. I cry when she cries? It's also because she truly loves Bill, like any little daughter who simply loves her father. Of course, at the end of the film, I think it's pretty cruel. My daughter got what she wanted, and poor Maya got her father's love and lost it. In the end, it was just a dream.
The actor of her daughter Alison is also a child star. She has acted in "Little Sunshine" and "Sister's Guardian", and she is also a professional daughter. Whether Amanda is guilty or not in reality is still a mystery to this day, but she got what she wanted and returned to China, and a biography was published. The most pitiful thing in the real incident is the innocent British student who died at a young age in a foreign country. Life is brutal, cherish life and cherish the people around you.
