good and bad cops
Beaulah 2022-03-20 09:01:39
It is another film about dirty police. The difference is that the police in this film have the meaning of repentance through the experience of life and death with witnesses, and finally choose to return to the side of justice. There are not many scenes in the film, only a few blocks in the film, and there are no big scenes. But it is in these scenes that the psychological state of each character, especially the performance of black people, is reflected through short and concise lines. A very small character knows how to ease the tense atmosphere. . . This film is worth watching. . .

Jack Mosley: [tape recording] It's Detective Jack Mosley, Shield number 227. I guess this will be my last will and testament. This is for Diane. When this day is over, they're gonna come and talk to you about this and they're gonna... gonna tell you what happened, Diane. But what they tell you is not really what happened here. So I hope that you get this. I was trying to do a good thing.
