The devil descended to the world, aiming at the contract signer who deliberately deceived his identity to fulfill the promise of the day.
The process is quite bloody and weird.
In 1955, Brooklyn, the United States, was baptized by artillery fire during the Second World War. Private detective Harry Angel took the case of tracing the missing singer Johnny Favorite. His client Louis Cyphre put on black clothes and sat down calmly. He won't get up to say hello, but he has confidence on the corners of his mouth. His complexion is ruddy. Generally speaking, it is not the people's ability to pay a high cost to find someone. Even if it is possible, most of the clients will be eagerly reminded by the detectives to lose contact with relatives and friends. The psychological warfare of Jiu-xu's mind requires people to pay attention to it and focus on searching, but the client's face can't detect panic or loss of squareness. He seems to be chatting and laughing to the detective to help the beard regardless of his life or death. Investigating the ultimate persistence, that breathless oppression, the detective must not refuse.
The client's black clothes and his clothes soak up the surrounding light, and faintly cover the detective who wears light-colored clothes, and asks him to work hard to deal with the case. This kind of reversal of the subject and object is that the film has its own unique style, that kind of tone, unlike other films. It seems that a leopard wolf who has premeditated and wants its prey can't help but lay down its prey, stepping deeper and deeper into the abyss of the hell bed. What a beast needs is not to be furious, what it wants is to have its cheeks covered to make people feel serious The beard, a black dress, and a matte crutch, the camera captures Louis's rotating stick, alternating left and right, Angel (audience) eyeballs follow the twisting stick, like hypnosis, unexpectedly, gradually He took the body and soul to walk around the world, took the elevator down the bottom floor, and opened the gate of hell.
The client eating eggs was very horrible. Eggs are the origin of life and the carrier of the soul. The moment his row of white sharp teeth bite the protein, contrasting the detective's sensitivity to chickens in the future, a pun, his allergy is his identity. Fear, resistance to the truth, no need to follow the script, just a mediocre eating scene, it is enough to drive the detective's heart into a dead end in the case of the case, the fear of frequent nightmares, the movie is about the wrestling between the characters, and the proper deployment of items, people The blending with things is natural and well laid out.
"Angel Chasing Soul" is a very humid movie, and also a very seductive movie. Every time Angel goes through the provinces to investigate the case, he just explores slowly. The sweat is always on the body, and the water drained from the pores soaks the man's hair and mind, making the original upright hairstyle wet with body sweat to make it more three-dimensional, and the water is hazy. The eyebrows are even more unruly, exuding male primitive charm. They are very sultry to the voodoo goddess who is smaller than the outsiders. Relatively speaking, the woman leaned over and shampoo mixed with soap foam and wet the clothes. The looming sexual characteristics are equally pleasant. The two sexes attract each other, there is no such thing as the self-improvement of white superiority and the black exoticism, there is no unconventional father-daughter love between a seventeen-year-old mother woman and a middle-aged man who talks with her. The lust involved through clothes did not explode because of the encounter. However, when he saw that Angel left without cursing the roosting chickens that he almost came across through the sand, his heart was already covered up. This ignorance that shouldn't be there was the seed of grief he planted in the future.
The blood and water intercourse between men and women was very shocking. Later, the Japanese film "My Man (Hong Kong translation of the grace of desire)" also used it for reference, and the influence of "Angel Chasing the Soul" can be seen.
