Harry Callahan, an old police officer and a true man, lives alone and prefers to handle cases alone. He also has a partner, but the fate of his partner is basically the death of Huangquan in difficult and dangerous missions. The five "dirty Harry" series are also a tragic history of Harry's partner. We can see that Harry's partners are men and women, and there are There are whites, blacks, and Chinese. Everyone comes from all corners of the world, but their destiny is all tragic and unanimous. Therefore, every time a new partner shows up, Harry always asks him seriously if he knows the fate of his former partner. Of course, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. The new partner always resolves it with ridicule, and then walks to the grave, but said Up, this kind of spirit is what Harry appreciates. Harry took over difficult cases. He dared to provoke people who were afraid to provoke him. He dared to break into the den of thieves that others dared not enter. A pistol of a large size was his hallmark. In fact, he is still a cowboy. It seems that he belongs to the system, but he still maintains the freedom of a cowboy. He has never been a superior. "Being on vacation" is even more commonplace, and superiors, senior officials, dudes and the like have eaten him. His superiors gritted his teeth at his sarcasm, humiliation, and even fists, but from the five "dirty Harrys", the superiors have changed a few, but Harry continued to make trouble, causing the leaders to irritate and clean up the mess. Harry's even the coherent actions of holding a gun, drawing a gun, and shooting a gun are still cowboys. At the beginning of each part of this series, he walked into a tense confrontation scene smartly, just like walking into a western movie bar, and then He talked with the suspect in a cool and calm manner, and then the gun shot, the criminal fell to the ground, and he left unhurriedly. This is an important point of my liking for the "Dirty Harry" series. The glory of his cowboy era can be vaguely seen. At that time, Eastwood was also in his 40s. It also brought a trace of vicissitudes to Harry. Thick flavor.
There are five parts in the "Dirty Harry" series, namely "Dirty Harry" (1971), "Magnum Force" (Magnum Force, 1973), "Full Search Order" (The Enforcer, 1976), and "Dirty Harry" (1971). "(Sudden Impact, 1983), "Gambling Blacklist" (The Dead Pool, 1988). The plot is often simple and straightforward, but each episode will have a suspense in the plot, such as a mysterious shooter who shoots civilians for no reason; a mysterious arbiter who murders villains who escape legal sanctions in the city; a mysterious city that provokes the city government A terrorist organization; the mysterious woman behind a series of serial killings; a mysterious blacklist that places bets on the time of death of celebrities. Despite the slight suspense, these suspense are all weak suspense. Especially when contemporary audiences look back at these films, many of the routines are already familiar, obviously missing some of the feelings of contemporaries. Therefore, the appeal of this film so far is still Eastwood's characterization of Harry Callahan. In addition to Harry's unruly and bravery mentioned above, he has a rough and direct, but strong sense of justice. Even when he is no longer on duty, he sees the wicked committing crimes, and he will yell at injustice. At the same time, he abides by the bottom line of the law. When facing a group of police officers, he is able to lynching to "justice" under the instructions of the chief. Point out the hypocrisy of this approach. In addition to being tough, he often shows tenderness, especially when his partners and colleagues are killed or injured one by one, he always shows restrained sadness. In the process of handling the case, his humor from time to time also filled his image with a sense of intimacy. The overall style of the film also follows a realistic line. It appears that the unmodified shots are full of realism and truly reflect the characteristics of the times, making people nowadays have a strong feeling of the 70s and 80s.
The "Dirty Harry" series also reflects the expectations of the people of that era for justice enforcers. That era was also the era of superheroes such as Superman, who used their superpowers to pin people's sense of security against external threats. And Harry is another sustenance in the face of inner anxiety. People hope that such a police detective will abide by principles, be full of justice, not afraid of danger, daring to fight against political power, and maintain with an anarchist attitude. For the stability of this society. He often seemed unreasonable and extremely hot in handling cases, but he was also very reasonable, that is, all these brutalities were swayed directly on the wicked. People prefer a simple binary world where love and hate are clearly distinguished. Evil is evil, and good is good. The relativity of justice is often frustrating, and Harry is the role of balancing this frustration, no matter how domineering you are or what the background is. Be tough, as long as Harry catches sight of it, then wait for it to be unlucky! Eastwood injected the cowboy spirit into this modern policeman. After watching five films, the plot may soon fade away, but the role of Harry has been deeply remembered. It is Eastwood that made us see A city cowboy with sharp edges and corners, with him, cross the streets with him, how happy!
