The old man seems to have no special skills, far less than the extraordinary and beautiful thieves in the movies "Eleven Arhats", "The Day and the Day", etc., but this old guy is full of shrewd calculations to win over the London Diamond. The most unwilling female executive in the company joins the theft plan and uses the position of a cleaner to collect information on the company's wealth. The best thing is that his plan has been tried and tested and has been successful. Each piece is used properly and in place.
However, in the middle of the film, when the camera pointed to the empty diamond vault of Lunzuan, the iron box with corpses and the sad diamond display rack made the image of this old man magical again.
Mind you, magic, this is just magic.
It is easy for a movie to create a magic. It can stand out from many excellent movies, not only by a few seamless tricks. It's the character's inner struggle, purpose, exclusivity, and certain moving qualities. Obviously, with the progress of the plot, the inner activities of the old man and the female executive have become the focus of attention of the audience. He hides deeply, she is contradictory and fearful, he is calm and serious, and she suffers.
Why did this old man emptied a vault of diamonds and still didn't run away? Why does this female executive have to stick to her post and deliberately expose the case?
Unable to withstand the moral pressure at the last minute, she cried beside the pool, and the unmistakable fall of the earrings finally exposed the mountain of diamonds.
But this is far from what Flawless wants to end up presenting - struggle, deceit, betrayal, fear, moral condemnation, and the dust finally settles when the old man is holding a pistol.
Are you a receiver or a giver? he asked her.
Her thin and pale face was full of confusion, but in the end she chose a straightforward and correct path.
Leaving aside eating, sleeping, watching TV, and doing idle work, a person's truly effective life is only 40 years old. He entered the society at the age of 20 and became famous at the age of 60. What have you been doing in these 40 years? How to do it? It is an unsolved proposition that everyone is on and off but chasing after. Just like the protagonist in the film, the old man suffers for 15 years just for this day, while the female executive spends the rest of his life to make up for his moral shortcomings.
Perhaps the ending of the film is that Demi Moore's lonely and lonely back left the audience not only a legendary story that will never return, but also the noble and self-sustaining quality of a person and a soul.
Are you a receiver or a giver?
It is up to you.
