The dailyization of murder

Many people don't like Woody Allen's London trilogy, but I think these three films of his have started to look good and interesting.

The ending point of the game is a little more serious. In the exclusive report, Woody Allen’s rumors destroy the thrilling and suspenseful atmosphere. In addition, the dramatic death at the end of the play and the dark humorous dialogue between ghosts create a comedic atmosphere. Incorporating into the film makes the revelation of the truth of the final murderer seem without climax, as if it were a logical and natural thing.
In this film, Colin Falrell assumes the usual role-playing of Woody Allen. His hesitation, timidity, cowardice and nervousness make the viewer feel impatient and even angry, as if the murder became an audience and Ian. A wish that everyone wanted to achieve, but it happened that this bold gambler broke something. Although the audience understood that the victim was not at fault, they all followed Ian's ideas and strongly expected a murder. Murder has become a goal, not involving moral and legal judgments, but just an action that needs to be implemented.
However, murder is after all murder, and the audience’s psychology is misled by too much dramatic murder. In daily life, our attitude towards murder is more likely to be like Colin’s, and it is difficult to face moral and legal pressures. Calm, no peace. His somewhat irritating behavior is our own face, which may be disgusting, but we can't help but face it. Woody Allen did not exaggerate this point, but it made him look a little disgusted, so that the audience would look at their daily appearance from an ideal angle, and they would find that life is so helpless and wretched compared to drama. And this helplessness and insignificance has its place.
Therefore, in the end Ian was killed by Colin and not the other way around. This may not be the result we expected, but it is the most likely situation in a mediocre life. There is no climax, only helplessness.

    One of Woody Allen's rare dark crime comedies, it's pacing, impersonal, and long-winded. Kwon as Colin Farrell's warm-up foreplay before starring in "Killers Have No Vacation."

    The style of "Match Point" is exactly the same as before. Compared with the previous work, there are traces of regression. The brothers' Cassandra's dream of sailing was broken by the appearance of their uncle. Unlike the ending of the game point, the fate of the two brothers did not so lucky

  • Terry: What are you thinking?

    Ian: That then was then. And now is now. And we've done it and it's over.

    Ian: And it's always now.

  • Ian: You think we've committed some kind of unnatural act, but we haven't. The whole of human life is about violence. It's a cruel world, Terry.
