Today, I watched the movie innocent murder that I wanted to see the day before yesterday. Ironically, its ticket price is currently the cheapest in all the theaters, but its content, I can say with my chest, is the best, compared to Actors get together and push small fresh meat and so on, they are completely two-level things. When I saw the end, I almost cried. The director and screenwriter's meticulousness touched me deeply.
At the beginning of the film, the main character Colinny went to the senior presidential suite of the hotel, and then switched the scene directly to the simple plot of him stepping on the blood, sitting in the hotel lobby, and asking the waiter to call the police, without filming anything about the killing process and The appearance of the corpse, here, maybe many crime movies will remind us, maybe buy a murder, maybe a gang fight, etc., and the murdered protagonist is a rich man, we will think of family struggles and so on, However, the plot is not so traditional, because this is a German film, and we don't have much contact with it. The protagonist of the film, Lawyer Ryan, a newcomer who has just obtained his lawyer's license, was assigned as the defendant's lawyer in this murder case. , and his opponent lawyer is a mentor-level lawyer Professor Martinger with 40 years of experience. Judging from all the evidence in the case itself, it is an ordinary murder case. The only puzzle is that the defendant has always remained silent and said nothing. On the other hand, Lawyer Lane was raised by the deceased. Emotionally and legally, all cases should be ended one-sidedly. However, because of the need to know the purpose of the murder, Lawyer Lane made every effort to find clues for the defendant, and finally defended the case without For the crime of murder, the turning point of the film is not violent, but more reasonable. I will interpret it from several angles:
1. Lawyer Ryan has defended the bottom line of legal workers. From the very beginning, in the face of powerful opponents, even prosecutors, judges, and juries are biased towards old lawyers. This is exactly the same as the current working environment. Perseverance, the distinction between public and private, and the most vivid display.
2. Regarding the defendant, he didn't say a word at first, but at the end, although he didn't say much, it was enough to show his views on the law, and he turned from helplessness to recognition, because as early as 1969, after his mother died, he He had sued, but it was dismissed. The shadow of his childhood has been lingering, so much so that he took extreme measures. He finally said that the deceased does not need revenge, but a statement to comfort the dead soul. The old lawyer admitted that the law he followed was unreasonable, and on the eve of his acquittal, he chose to commit suicide, which is enough to show his alternative respect for the law. He gave an account to the family of the deceased with his death because he also Standing at that angle to feel the endless pain and sadness, why didn't he die in the first place, because he didn't get the support and respect of the law, if he was just convicted of murder, he would be in prison for 7 years, he could not commit suicide, so this suicide The plot is even more fearless.
3. From the murdered tycoon Meyer, he was the commander of the German Nazis in World War II. The defendant's father was commanded by him and killed himself. In the post-World War II legal system, the time limit was deliberately used to protect the war criminals of World War II, so that They can still swagger and live a prosperous life, and in the final stage, the process of killing is restored. Meyer's actions are just like the death of old Colinney. The tragic situation of three shots in the head and stepping on the face many times is worth it. The death of Doctrine, Meyer knelt on the ground, but folded his hands and lowered his head, maybe he knew this day, maybe countless nightmares made him uncomfortable, maybe being killed was his best way to escape.
Finally, from the director's point of view, this film is directed by Germany and is a movie to comfort the innocent people of World War II. As a German, you can recognize your past sins, which is much better than the Japan next door. Germans It also won more respect. Everyone makes mistakes. The most terrible thing is not to admit mistakes and make mistakes again and again. In the end, after the funeral of the deceased, when Lawyer Ryan threw the ball he picked up and rolled over the stairs, he appeared in front of him. Colinney and his son, they picked up the ball and walked down happily, implying that there is more happiness in heaven. The director once again comforted the victims and their families by means of a movie.
This is a thought-provoking movie!
