black and white tones

An innovation of Bruce Willis in 2006, he no longer played the role of a superhero who could not be beaten to death and could not run out of physical strength, but an old policeman who was late, alcoholic, lame and corrupt, which is in line with the American mind. The heroic images are far apart, but for Bruce Willis, it is a helpless move. As he gets older, his skills become obviously slower, and the audience is a little tired of the heroic police image he often played in the past. This time I met Richard Donner, an old-school director who doesn't like to use stunts and CGI. The two hit it off. The quality of the work was very good, and the audience also cheered. When it was released in China in 2007, without any promotion, the box office hit also reached 8 million. . .
I really like the black-and-white tone at the beginning of the movie. . .

    Seeing old Bruce frowning makes me feel tired...
