The panning, soundtrack, and gorgeous and cruel editing of the first episode will no longer appear in the second episode.
It is estimated that there is no time to watch it the second time. Let's start recording from the seventh episode. The ones in front just appreciate it.
S01E07
Conversation between Margaret and his mistress and girlfriend
"If a man is willing to open up to you, your presence is a reminder of how fragile he is. So you don't want him to say more."
In the old house, when Nucky confided in him, M interrupted him, "I am not a stranger to man's cruelty."
The encounter between Jimmy and the half-faced sniper was moving.
"Can't smoke"
Ask him to drink and give him a straw intimately. The man turned around while drinking with a straw to prevent J from seeing his embarrassment, and used a straw to wipe the leaked liquid with a tissue.
Give him respect for beautiful women and men.
(I think the screenwriter or director prefers the role of J. He takes on most of the silent, still, melancholic, gentle, polite and affectionate part of the delicate emotions in the play, and even the reckless despair of young people. His performance seems deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.)
In this way, when J takes revenge, the bullet in the middle of the man's right eye is logical.
The next shot is a sentence on the movie screen:
For the first time in his life, Jekyll had wakened to a sense of his baser nature.
I really like the connection between this line and the previous plot. It is both clean and meaningful. It also paves the way for the next scene. (Lucy, the mistress who was alone in the cinema watching the movie that Nucky promised to watch with her, burst into tears with a sad expression on her face)
N promised to give to someone else’s old house. Because of his father’s arrogance and disdain, he burned it out after visiting the decorated house twice (full of expectations and great attention), and gave a sum of money to the other party to buy it again. Lost the unbearable memories of childhood and the cruelty of his father. (The happy family, the sense of responsibility and the love for the children of the person who sent the house; the dictatorship of the father to M that he told about both promotes the plot and explains the motives of N's actions)
Those silent, profound eyes and dialogues, unspoken emotions and actions made this drama give me the feeling of watching Mad Man at the beginning.
S01E09
The more I look at the role of M, the more I hate it. There are several places in this episode about her development and changes.
The female owner of the clothing store said to her: "You are more influential than you think."
When she and N mentioned the clothing store for the first time, N was very angry. It was a threat of interference with men’s power; the second time when N was in bed boasting that she was on par with the congressman and asked her to give a speech, She seemed to have suddenly realized her power, understood her bargaining chip, and started to change a strategy to fight for the clothing store. "I pleaded with you to make myself more charming" This very feminine rhetoric, And this time it succeeded. This shows that men prefer to objectify women in order to be more charming and to please men. Therefore, he likes this kind of "selfishness" because it is petty and makes men feel safe and important.
When M hinted to the female owner of the $480 dress in the clothing store, she must have begun to transform. She was not confident and calm and ambitious from the beginning. Her temptation, cautiousness, keen intelligence, and the nature of pleasing men but unwilling to be manipulated did not become apparent until a little bit of reminder.
And the last blue dress that made her glamorous was dyed with the red blood of the woman who died because of N (impact shot), which paved the way for her struggle and moral dilemma.
By the way, the role of Micky led a group of criminals to infringe on N over and over again, which shows that N’s actions against him in prison before was a make a mistake. For such a person who has too much business information on himself, even if he doesn’t. Money helps to appease him to make him satisfied, at least it should be killed for good, so that there will not be so many future troubles. It can be seen that N is a politician and a businessman after all, otherwise it would not have reached such a level of business power, and there is no armed force that sells his life around him.
Jimmy: Can you bail me out?
Nucky: The legal system's not your ticket fo freedom. This line is wonderful.
S01E10
Nothing says I AM SORRY like money.
There is no better compensation than money.
J explained to his wife the impact of the war on him:
Over in Europe,in the war...
art,painting,poetry...
two weeks in the trench and you forget that there's anything beautiful in the civilized world.
In the synagogue, the man's unintentional words about "hat-child" to Al produced images of Al.
M uses the fairy tale Oz---woodman to stop the children from being afraid of half-faced soldiers.
Questioning the mayor-the inspector's direct and rude accusation caused moral uneasiness in her heart-wonderful speech at the mayor's selection meeting (ingeniously connecting Builder and women's rights)
There were many accusations and curses against M and J’s wife and the photographer’s wife on the barrage. At first, I didn’t like these two women, but later I realized that it was just because I was from the perspective of the two male protagonists, N and J. Let's take a look at it. If a couple like a female painter and a female photographer are in a Les movie, it will be a romantic couple who escapes from a loveless family.
S01E11
The quarrel between N and M is wonderful. She is a woman who is tortured by the weight of life and self-consciousness, so she sways between succumbing to N, enjoying a rich life, and her own moral judgment.
S01E12
N's passionate speeches, gorgeous speeches, and montages of bloody scenes of Italians being killed one after another reminded me of "The Godfather."
M has eaten the rags that symbolize poverty, so she takes the initiative to come back, and really "coincides with N". Because this time she has no reason to condemn N because of her own morals.
There was a sentence in the barrage that impressed me deeply, "Doumi raises grace, raises rice raises enmity." People without self-knowledge will always be dissatisfied with what others give him less, but forget that he originally had nothing, just like N's younger brother. , An incompetent and reckless police officer. But N is indeed cruel and ruthless, like a "machine", sometimes his perfection and reason are really pleasant to the audience.
