Today, let's talk about the Spanish drama "The Most Innocent".
Title El inocente / The Innocent (2021), alias The Innocent / The Second Ring.
The Spanish director Oriol Paulo, who was affectionately known as the "King of Reversal" by domestic fans, joined Netflix and filmed a short 8-episode miniseries "The Most Innocent".
Based on the novel of the same name by the famous American suspense novel writer Harlan Coben, "The Innocence" tells the story of a group of people full of secrets entangled with each other.
When Mateo Vdar was still a college student, he went to a bar with his brother to dance, only to get involved in a fight. During the conflict, Matt accidentally killed another young man and was sentenced to four years in prison for manslaughter, which changed his life.
After being released from prison, Matt tried to start his life again. He found a job, found his wife Olivia Costa (Olivia Costa), and soon his wife became pregnant. uplifting. But just as the young couple was about to welcome their new life, a phone call completely disrupted their lives, and the old people always came back to find him.
"The Most Innocent" builds a maze, and all the characters are in the maze, and they cannot see the whole event from their own perspective.
Each character is not as innocent as they appear on the surface, and each has its own dark history.
In order to make it easier for the audience to understand the whole thing, "The Best of Innocence" uses POV-style expression techniques, filming what the characters have seen and heard one by one in primary and secondary order, and finally pieced together a complete picture.
Each episode of "The Innocence" tells the story to the audience from different angles and with different voices.
And what's interesting is that the director played a trick here. The story begins from Mateo's point of view, and the subsequent episodes seem to be inextricably linked to Mateo, and the audience also naturally preconceived that Mateo is the center of the whole incident, and all clues must be Gather here at Mateo.
As the number of characters increased and the storyline increased, everyone suddenly realized that the real center was not Mateo, but his wife "Olivia". What's more, "Olivia" doesn't even exist.
In "The Most Innocent", every character is inevitably entangled with the past, and everyone is trying to distance themselves from the dark history of the past, but these efforts have proved to be in vain.
After tossing for a full 8 episodes, they led the audience to understand that only by learning to live in harmony with the past can they truly embrace the new future.
However, Mateo is also a well-deserved male protagonist in this play. He has the aura of the protagonist that others envy. The most prominent thing is that he is the only character in the play who has two chances to be reborn.
The first rebirth was in prison, and the second rebirth was bestowed by Sonia after all the hardships.
"You never thought a person could be born twice. This is the forgiveness of a woman (Sonia) who you shattered in her soul and who can give you an angelic love. Thank you for a second chance at being born again."
Comparing Mateo's preferential treatment, you will find that it is difficult for other characters to get a chance to be reborn. Emma, Kimi, Theo Aguilar and others all lost it when they sought the first chance to be reborn. life.
"The Most Innocent" is a fascinating suspense drama.
The POV-style expression can further enhance the sense of suspense. The scope of what each character has seen and heard is limited, and the audience will only follow behind in confusion.
Only by following the different characters and slowly exploring their gripping past stories can the audience piece together a complete picture of the conspiracy.
This kind of leopard-in-the-tube expression is very suitable for the theme of suspense. Each character is limited to its own positioning, and can only see part of the truth. When switching to another character, it is likely to be reversed or subverted.
"Reversal King" Oriol Paul even set up a small reversal 30 seconds before the end of the whole play.
The background music of "The Innocence" is also refreshing and suitable for the performance in the play.
Who the hell knows why Manson's music goes so well with erotic nightclubs...
Ordinary people basically have no chance to come into contact with so many thrilling and thrilling events. If you want to completely avoid the minefield depicted in the play, then there are two suggestions worth learning.
The first lesson learned is, don't dance. Bars and nightclubs are a concentration of hormones. Most of the people who go to play have a purpose that you know, and jealousy is also easy to happen. If you can't fix the conflict and escalate it, it will be a lifelong regret. In addition, there are wine trays and rice trays. There are too many routines to prevent.
The second lesson learned is to be careful with Aventures. Suddenly a curvaceous and glamorous lady gives you a wink, which in most cases will not be a good thing. Just like the joke that Miss Congliang found an honest man, the vast majority of diaosi should not think that the heavenly encounter is because they stepped on the shit and found the treasure by themselves, maybe they took over the plate.
According to foreign media news, there will be a second season of "Not Guilty", when we look forward to it.
The second season will also be 8 episodes, with the premiere likely to be April 29, 2022.
Mario Casas will then return as Mateo and Alexandra Jimenez (Lorraine).
Also returning are Jose Coronado (Teo Aguar) and Aura Garrido (Olivia).
