Paul seems to be beautiful, strong and miserable, but in fact, he is really beautiful and strong and miserable. He bears two sins from beginning to life, one from war, and one from marriage.
After watching episode 7, I finally breathed a sigh of relief: fortunately dead. Because even if you live to the end, you may face a broken family and a more fucked life than now.
The first felony, the "those" crimes Paul committed during the war.
The specific crime is not clearly pointed out in the play, but based on the two scenes of the confrontation with the actress' lawyer team and the siege of reporters, I think the crime of killing civilians cannot escape, and what is worse may be the killing of a large number of civilians and torture. Civilians, torture of prisoners... All in all, what is done is done, but to what extent and how bad it is depends on how you view this role.
why? From the very beginning Paul was haunted by allegations of "crimes" committed during the war (to determine what crimes he was charged with), and the allegations and investigations by relevant departments may have affected him in his current role (Paul is satisfied with the career of the Mounted Police) In order to get rid of these trivial matters, in order to keep their jobs, join the death investigation team, why not? If you want to completely wash away the crimes of the past, you have to confront the authorities. Who has more power than those official officials with the word "prosecutor"? Here, the actress' backlash was an accidental trigger for the investigation, and he was already in a dire situation. The actress' accusation and the operation of the actress' legal team made his situation worse, and he had no choice. In episode 7, he told his fiancée and his mother that this operation may be futile, which can more or less explain the utilitarian nature of his actions. Damn, he is really the most diligent in the investigation of the death team, diamonds, orphans, documents... ...In the end, he died from a cold gun, tragic.
The Montenegro in the play seems to be the real American Blackwater Company, which owns the famous news torture gate. Let’s look at several famous locations mentioned in episode 4: Fallujah, Tikrit, Iraq, War Small When the war broke out, many civilians were killed or injured. But it could also explain Paul's adeptness in street fighting when a group of police officers checked Mexicans. In the end, there were many casualties, V and B were almost sluggish in despair, and I was stunned: this Nima is California? Not Afghanistan or Mexico? ? Only his expression is calmer, but there is also a kind of unease that he doesn't dare to be too calm on the surface. If a reporter captures his calm expression and reflects his calm heart, and uses the reporter's ability to slander people, will he not be notorious for the rest of his life? ?
Also, Paul's attitude towards crime charges, episode 1, he told his boss in the face of the exit investigation, we were working for America. Episode 4 min 13: I did everyting they said, Army, PD. But it doesn't matter...
The dialogue in episode 4, that doesn't matter, I don't understand what it means. However, I think the text before and after the link reflects Paul's hard feelings, "why did the labor and management do everything from the military or the police station?", and the sentence "we were working for America" couldn't be more obvious. , do nothing without labor and capital! Obviously, I did those things, and I couldn't help myself. (It's ironic that Paul ended up being so hard-pressed, and there was an advertisement for American conscription on the street where he asked prostitutes at night.)
The second felony, co-wife maker. Emotionally, Paul is undoubtedly an iron man, so the combination with Emily has the nature of self-escape and deception.
Paul seems to have only said I love you to Emily once in the play, when Em came to him and told him that he was pregnant. Paul was impatient at first, but suddenly I love you, I'm afraid he thinks this is some kind of miracle or miracle... which makes Em happy to believe it. But in fact, even before going to Los Angeles to investigate the death, he had a quarrel with Em before leaving, Paul didn't even bother to pretend to coax his girlfriend to say I love you, so it can be seen that Emily noticed it too, Paul was very interested in this passage. How careless the relationship is, Emily looks at the beauty and body of her absent-minded boyfriend (it's really handsome, even if Mommy came to visit them Em is still bragging about the beauty of her fiance, and Mommy agrees with a very knowledgeable smile. Haha), as for Paul, he was the one who asked Emily first, for, as he said: trying to be a good man.
This relationship was always dominated by Paul. Before leaving, Em had a showdown. Paul didn't comfort Em with a single sentence (it may also be my opinion of being too drama queen). And set up the mother and Emily to live in the hotel, the fiancee asked: what should we do? The answer is: if something happens, call room service. Of course, the attitude in the play is not so cold, he is really not good at handling family relations. Although it may not be possible to contact at a critical moment, and even if contact is made, it may not help, but if something happens to your wife, you don't want to be the first to know? Don't want to do something or know there's nothing you can do? ? (It's still possible that I'm thinking too much of a drama queen...) Emily is still too talkative, but the relationship is too cold.
In short, fortunately Paul did not survive, and he died heroically, which may be the best ending for him/
deserve it? Guilty not so far? I think neither, but a relief.
Paul was definitely not a kind person in the beginning, but a veteran who slaughtered civilians in the war and deceived his girlfriend emotionally. The former obeyed orders, and the latter avoided himself. The investigation was so diligent that there were obvious purposes and utilitarianism. sex. However, as he explored the truth, he gradually established his own view of justice. Several scenes: chasing the corpse bird to the hut in the valley, and seeing the bloodstains left after the cruelty of a life, I think he should think of something; He was about to become a father, but learned that the dark case of that year had created a pair of orphans... So, when the other party threatened him with photos, he did not choose to benefit himself - anyway, the two partners jumped into the Yellow River and could not be washed away. He can put all the blame on the two and be a black policeman, but he chose to fight back against the black policeman. He established his own view of justice instead of obeying the orders of the police station and the army (obeyed long enough), and he walked out His own path, but in Vinci City, where the folk customs are simple, the government is harmonious, and his path has come to an end.
The three true detectives in the second season have all gone through the process of transforming from walking dead to human beings, but this is a world of walking dead, how can mortals survive?
I found that the private lives of the true detectives in the second season are quite isolated, outside of business and selfless, causing a feeling of "loose", at least they have worked together for a while, right? ? It's not that after the reconnaissance process, the "big bang of life" will be staged for N people, but the pony in the first season has invited the partner's house as a guest (although it involves a lot of family chores later, but on the one hand, the characters are richer On the one hand, it satisfies the audience's curiosity about the mysterious person...) However, the true detectives in the second season just went their separate ways, even if V and B rolled the sheets, they felt very out of tune.
Also, the policewoman's father called her Antigone when her daughter came to the door in episode 1 (Antigone, the version I read had a little problem with the subtitle translation, and I realized it later), the name of the famous Greek tragic heroine , the old man called the other daughter Athena, I didn't check it carefully, and I don't know if there is any meaning. Anyway, my father is an old hippie, and he was an old hippie who thought it was the final BOSS of this season. What is the meaning of this setting? ? ? ? ? ?
