Heroes have always been saddened by Beauty Pass. If there is no Edi, I don't think Terry would have resisted. Although I admit that Terry has long been secretly rebellious in his bones, he just needs a fuse. Being in the arms of a beautiful woman will inflate a man's heroic thoughts, creating a feeling of being needed, and even have the spirit of the world giving up on me. Terry's choice of Edie led to the tragic death of his brother Charlie. I don't know if there will be any guilt in my heart, but in the end, as the first hero to stand up to resist, sacrifice is inevitable.
The character of Father Barry is more expressive. When he starts smoking and drinking in a serious manner, people can't help laughing. The contrast between the character setting and performance creates a light comedy effect. The character setting of the priest in "Young and Dangerous" is also similar to this. It is similar, they all hide a sullen heart under their serious appearance, but upholding justice is their moral bottom line.
As for the heroine Yidi, apart from being pretty, there is nothing else that stands out. I feel that the old movies in the past are not movies with women as the protagonists. The expressiveness of the female characters is relatively average, and it can only be regarded as an embellishment in the film.
