Different characters from different industries make their debut on this unique New York degenerate street. Each character is so distinct, so similar yet so different, with similar lives, but different lives.
The pimps wore suits and shoes, leaned on crutches, wore gold and silver, drove luxurious Cadillacs, and roamed the degenerate streets. They were the most beautiful people at that time. They look for distinctive prostitutes as their tools to make money, train them to be obedient, and promise to protect them. This "protection" is more like a brainwashing plunder, giving weak prostitutes the so-called sense of security in exchange for exploiting prostitutes. Rights, "If you want to control their bodies, you must first control their minds." This "protection" is fragile and powerless. When a prostitute really has an accident or is in a dilemma, the pimp is actually powerless. But why do so many prostitutes need pimps? Maybe prostitutes who are not brave enough also need a sense of dependence and identity.
Sad for the passing of Ruby Elephant Leg, Zhan Street is about to retire from the stage of history, the brothel is the protagonist, and Elephant Leg is powerless, the brothel has no place for her, and she is unique only through Zhan Street. People see and need. Ruby was lying on the degenerate street like this, so sad, yet so normal, it seemed to be an end to the era of standing on the street in the past. Lori is vain and timid. Maybe this is her character weakness. She has gained more income from filming and is highly valued by CC, looking forward to her future fate.
It may be understandable why Abby gave up college and a wealthy family life and chose to work as Vincent's bartender on Degenerate Street. Hate hypocrisy and betrayal, feel that the life of the degenerate street is real and depressing, but like it, it is probably a declaration of war on the fucking life.
Sandra is a reporter who wants to present the complete degenerate street to the public. She comes with justice, wants to expose all this and change it, but it is so powerless. I admire her bravery in spite of everything, but also helpless that she doesn't understand human nature.
Katie must be the heroine in the show. In the era of standing on the street, I chose to be independent, take care of myself, and do not need the exploitation and protection of pimps. It is inevitable that I will be beaten, but I am still strong. Finally, by chance, I entered the originally hated filmmaking job, but I got a windfall, so I took off my wig and started anew. This kind of starting is a clear understanding of self-selection. In the face of such a mourning life, probably the daughter is the only motivation.
I like Vincent. He is one of the rare people who has a sense of responsibility and credibility among so many men who are selfish. , very manly. Of course, he also likes his brother Franky. Franky is uninhibited, has no sense of responsibility, no obligation, loves himself, loves freedom, and makes people infatuated. Vincent is trustworthy and dependable, and Franky is adored and liked.
I like the way these people live in the degenerate streets, so mourned, yet so alive.
Life is so fucked up, so bad, if you live obediently and bewildered, you are really draining your life.
I love the people who are sober in it, Katie, Vincent, who live through it and live the way it should be in a life that is already consuming.
