1. The role of Western films
(1) When Samuel called Uncle Spacey, he mentioned the Western movie and discussed the different endings of the movie. Spacey thought that the people in the movie had died in the end, and Samuel felt that he was not dead. This part should be that Samuel deliberately proposed different endings to test Spacey's negotiating attitude and value orientation, because the requirements of "priest" as a metaphor for death could not be met, but Spacey directly told the negotiator about the death of the protagonist Such a negotiation taboo, negotiating rookies like Farley will probably choose to ignore the true ending of the movie, follow Samuel's statement in order to find a loophole in Samuel's negotiation, and then take sudden action. (This point can also be echoed from the attitude of Spacey when he went upstairs to talk to Samuel face to face for the first time. Because of his professional habit, Spacey perfunctory helped Samuel out to be seen through by him, and finally said him. The real purpose of the negotiation was Samuel's willingness to start the formal negotiation.) Spacey had already understood some of Samuel's negotiation requirements on the way to the scene (Spacey's "criminal" felt wronged and wanted the truth. ), so stick to your own opinion about the ending of the movie, and emphasize "facts" and "own opinions". Therefore, the western movie that was drawn from "small talk" was Samuel's request for Spacey's negotiating attitude. Spacey responded with Samuel's response: "I am serious about negotiating with you, and I have my own position."
(2) In the last part of the movie, Spacey and Samuel once again proposed the ending of the Western movie, which is more obvious. Spacey already knew through the mirror that Frost was also a member of corruption, and Samuel was still confused because of his long-term friendship. When he saw the police officer preparing to kill Samuel outside the window, Spacey was forced to pull him out of the room and start the plan. bluff, suddenly proposing that the protagonist of the western movie is not dead, is also telling him not to get up hard when he falls (from Samuel's expression, it can be guessed that the previous protagonist's death was his nonsense).
2. About who is in the pocket
The explicit embezzlers of the disability fund in the film include Niebaum, Frost, Hellman, Argento, and Allen. Niebaum found corrupt people during the inspection and then extorted them. Hellman, Argento, and Allen used bank accounts. Frost may be a member of the foundation, the one who was approved by the disability fund. In the end, Niebaum did not ask Frost to participate, most likely because there was no approver in the recording he had, so there is a sentence in the movie that puts the responsibility on Samuel, because Samuel is a fund committee member. There is also what Niebaum said to Samuel "It was you (killed him)".
3. Murder participants
It is also clear that Frost killed Nate and then framed Samuel. Master Frost, other accomplices. As a 20-year-old friend of Samuel, when asked the stereotypical question "Do you doubt me too?", his answer was, "Well, of course." The intention of framing is no longer obvious. He never said a good word from Samuel, but used Karen to force him to submit. The closer you are, the more vulnerable you are.
4. Characters
(1) Assistant Maggie
She was the one who first provided the Niebaum computer password, and she was the one who finally escaped from the building to reveal his whereabouts. During the process of being kidnapped, she kept emphasizing that it had nothing to do with her. She has also experienced two robberies and was held hostage with a gun. She is just a powerless little person at the bottom. It doesn't matter whether she is mutiny, or standing in line between the police station and Samuel, just to get rid of this matter. Little people have a little personality at the same time, for example, they don't want to be released because of their gender, and they are calm and rational in the face of "murderer" Samuel.
(2) Nate's wife
The wife should know a little about Nate's investigation, but she also misunderstood Samuel and Niebaum's nest. The owner of the police station.
One more thing here, when Samuel rushed into the Niebaum Internal Inspection Department, the camera gave the front desk the scene of accepting gifts, suggesting that the department was rotten.
(3) Sheriff Beck
From the pic of Samuel's wedding beginning with his fist clenched, and the pic of the medal awarding him being presented with Samuel, it's inferred that he has a grudge about the negotiation and the negotiating experts. On the 60th birthday of the chief, when Samuel was interviewed by reporters and regarded as a hero on TV, the sheriff was jealous of Samuel and pointed out his faults in person at the party (fortunately, the negotiating experts eased up, and asked Otherwise, it is really a scene of social death). In addition, the sheriff has always liked violent handling of such hostage situations, and probably also wanted to get the honor of Samuel as a competitive policeman. Competitive and enjoys power like to command. The desire for meritorious deeds is strong, so he wants to kill the "criminal".
(4) Director
The police chief began to worry about the impact when Samuel took the hostage and the FBI was ready to intervene at any time (it was the chief after all), so he spy on the sheriff and did not want to stay alive. This is a bit chilling, because the director is also a person who has known each other for 20 years and attended Samuel's wedding. Facing the old subordinates, he did not say that he would try to find a way to conduct a thorough investigation, but when Samuel raised doubts, he was like Frost, "Well. What?" With a "I don't want to check" expression on his face. Any policeman should be vigilant in the face of Samuel's arrest of the crime scene, and all evidence will be left at the scene. Based on the fact that Samuel was stealing the limelight on the big birthday of the director, I guessed whether he was inadvertently doing more than the master, and the director was not happy, so Samuel didn't want to worry about it. life.
(5) Sightseeer Eagle, Sniper Palermo
The two never believed that Samuel murdered, and the sniper was doing his own psychological work when Samuel took the hostage, telling himself that he was wrong for taking it, but when he finally got a chance to shoot him in the head, he said A sentence cannot be fired. The reaction of these two is that of a true friend of many years. Of course, this is also partly because they are not guilty of participating in the corruption of the disability fund, and they have no official position to speak of as a colleague Samuel did not hurt their interests.
5. Others
(1) The translation of Rudy's little hacker's words is wrong
What Rudy is saying is that the police's network is always six months behind the times, meaning it's easy to crack.
(2) A FRIEND OF MY STORY…
(3) Flashbang
The firefighting system didn't start automatically when Samuel's flashbang ignited the pile of documents at the door, and only started when the fire got bigger.
(4) Commander replacement
It's easy to change the commander. I feel like I can ask Xu Du to disturb the police when I'm on a mission.
(5) The Big Bang Theory
Stewart is too fat haha
(6) Spacey, who succeeded in his plan, said "um" proudly
(7) Return of police badge
(8) So Spacey ran up and down the 20th floor three times?
I like this movie, so I feel a little bit clearer. After analysis, I found that the characters in the movie also exist in reality, and reality is more dramatic than TV.
Born as a human being, there is nothing to rely on, it really takes a lot of hard work to live an ordinary life. ☀
