My humble opinion: The roles of police and gangsters are reversed.

The French drug network has created a dead policeman with violent tendencies and racial discrimination. He has broken into black bars many times to find trouble, but only goes to black bars. He has a strong racist overtone and believes that black people are robbers, thieves or thieves. Drug dealers, addicts. In a bar dominated by white people, even if he thinks the other party is a big drug lord, he will only talk to his colleagues, at most stalking, and he does not go up to beat and search! !
He was impulsive, irritable, selfish, alcoholic, and lascivious. Unscrupulous in order to solve the case; you can kill a colleague, rob someone else's car as a police officer, and then crash it into a mess, and you can go to the illegal search and violence.
This movie gives me the feeling that there are no good people for being a cop. Instead, the drug dealer from France is elegant and gentle. The police are rude, twisted and perverted in their hearts. This broke the traditional impression of police and gangsters.

    Probably the most bizarre Oscar best picture I've ever seen. The unconventional use of the camera as a passive object in a veritable movement of capture is the real essence of what has led to the so-called documentary style. The final state of the police detective is similar to that of "The Hurt Locker". With the remnants of evil spirits lingering, everything has long been irrelevant. Any of the standard scenes of police and bandits are still at the top level today, and one day you can enjoy the restored version on the big screen and fill it with five stars.

    The shooting of sports lens is a classic of an era.
