The biggest charm of crime films is the criminal who hides behind the whole film. The difference between them and police and gangster films is that they pay more attention to causal logic and magnify the details of clues, as well as the focus of the scene. One is to focus on the pleasure brought by burning the brain. One is to focus on the thrill of violence. Like the famous detective Conan, this film drives the audience to solve an unsolved case through the perspective of a male policeman. The protagonist's confusion is also the confusion of the audience, and the pleasure of watching the movie is obtained through speculation and inference. The results of this kind of film are often unexpected. If the criminal is buried too shallow, it will lose its viewing value. The more unexpected the ending, the more clever the screenwriter is. Anyway, I didn't expect the criminal to be her! Of course, the final causal circle also made this matter reasonable. After the mystery was revealed, I felt that this matter was so simple, and we thought it complicated. This is a typical crime movie technique.
The director deliberately made a few characters seem ordinary, instead of using beautiful and handsome guys, but ordinary-looking actors, this is also a good way to highlight the plot, not to give "eye candy", and not to distract the audience. Of course, this kind of film can't stand the second viewing. When you know the answer, all the links are boring, which is also the weakness of this kind of film. It is a classic that is worth watching again and again, and the more you watch it, the more flavorful it is.
