This is a film made twenty years ago, and the male and female protagonists are all uncles and aunts. The man is very heroic, not very handsome, but the woman is very sexy, especially when I see her smiling at the end, she is really one of the most attractive. It is said that the two have been married for a long time in real life. Fairy couple. I really like the translated name of "Mandarin Ducks", which fits the plot very well.
After reading it, it is really "only envious of mandarin ducks, not immortals". I think the director's filming is very quiet, but it's secret that people can't help but like Duck and Carlo. Because the characters in the play can be said that there is no good person, they are all robbers and murderers. But in the end, I was also impressed by Dak's superb skills and fascinated by Carlo's beauty.
The contrast between the two couples is very obvious. In order to save Dak, Carlo sacrificed his body and Bunyan repeatedly enjoying. When Dak fulfilled his promise, Carlo killed Bunyan, and Dak also understood that Bunyan had fucked him. 's wife. He was pissed off, and I loved the scene where the two bicker and reconcile on the road. In fact, the two were deeply in love with each other from beginning to end.
And Rudy met the veterinarian's wife, a seductive woman with a unique voice, a flirtatious woman, who hooked up with Rudy, mad at the weak and incompetent veterinarian, but the ending was not good, and Rudy just put her Just as a plaything.
This is the best plot of the movie.

Duck's chasing the robber in the red shirt on the train is also very interesting, and it is quite suspicious. However, it was precisely because of him that the police were attracted, and there was an episode of refuge in the garbage truck. This part is also very good, clever escape.

The fight in the hotel is indeed a routine, and it is seen in many movies, but the old man driving an old truck at the end can't help but laugh.
The two drove away from the border to Mexico and continued to live their dream of a mandarin duck.

The Getaway quotes

  • Fran Carvey: What's the plan?

    Rudy Travis: The plan is shut up.

  • [At Benyon's compound]

    Jack Benyon: Thought I'd never see you again. The news said one dead.

    Doc McCoy: [drops the bag] Three dead. Hansen got jumpy and shot a guard, and Rudy got ambitious and killed Hansen, then he lost his head and tried to kill me.

    Jack Benyon: How's your wife?

    Doc McCoy: Let's cut up this money. I wanna get outta here.

    Jack Benyon: I don't like complications.

    Doc McCoy: Well, you pull these kinds of jobs, you take those chances.

    Jack Benyon: You know, McCoy? You and I are two of a kind.

    Doc McCoy: No, I don't think so. I like to do my own dirty work. I never much like guys like you, crooks that want to look respectable.

    Jack Benyon: [chuckles] You still don't get it, do ya? That's funny, because I've always heard what a smart operator you are. So let's just look at the situation: One, a very attractive young woman. Two, the woman's husband, a killer and a thief, serving a long sentence in a Mexican hellhole. Three, a businessman, lots of power and influence, a fella who can easily get the husband a pardon. But why should he? Well... one simple reason, the obvious reason: Money. But maybe there are other considerations. The wife is very attractive and she proves to be willing. Very willing. She sees an opportunity and she takes it. Who can blame her? She's tired of life on the run. Her husband, he's a loser. She wants something better, and so the inevitable happens. A very... intimate alliance. A very pleasurable alliance, enjoyed by both parties both vigorously and repeatedly. Enjoyed. And then the moment arrives. The husband is baited to a remote place. A place... well, Doc, kinda like this.

    [Carol sneaks into Benyon's place with her gun, unbeknownst to Doc and Jack]

    Jack Benyon: Don't think too badly about your wife, Doc. After all, you were locked up in prison. She is a stunningly, healthy young woman.

    [Carol fires five rounds at Benyon, killing him as he falls on the patio; Doc, pointing the gun, is shocked at Carol for killing him, but relents]

    Doc McCoy: [picks up Carol's gun and the bag] I see you've been practicing.
