Fate under the torrent

A good movie always has something moving. To be honest, I didn't understand it the first time. After reading the interpretation, I got a clear understanding of the story line. Mike didn't have a generation of godfathers who lived and died together. The final scene It seemed very lonely, and he sacrificed himself for the family. It was also in the last scene that I found out that Mike is also a colonel in "Scent of a Woman".

But what moved me was not Mike, but Frank, who had worked for the Kryon family from a generation of godfathers to the end of his life. As soon as he appeared in the story, he disobeyed Mike, saying that Mike bowed his head to the Jews and humiliated the blood in his body, so Frank was a traditional gangster from the beginning. He himself said that he has no smart mind, can't do a big business like Mike, and can only "fight" on the street. At this time, he has proved that he will never betray the Kryon family, loyal to the old godfather, and loyal to the old godfather. Mike. However, as a pawn, he obeyed Mike's order, but was bewitched by Laws, mistakenly thinking that Mike was going to kill him, and finally chose to accuse Mike as a witness.

I was sad for Frank. When his brother came to the charge meeting, the two looked at each other and let Frank see the confusion in his brother's eyes. Sicily's silence did not allow them to negotiate with the police, and Frank took himself very seriously. A man of blood and tradition, he knew that if he accused Mike, he would definitely disappoint his brother and even bring shame to his family. So after seeing my brother, I bowed my head and thought for a moment to decide my destiny. The thief also has a way, it is the unthinking decision shown in the face of life and death that highlights a person's beliefs.

Frank vaguely described his fate to Tom. He wanted to find a bathtub, soaked in warm water, and cut his own blood vessels, but wanted to have a small party ahead of time, which was almost a request, although he was The deceived person, although he has always been loyal to the old godfather, has harmed the interests of the Kryon family, it has become an established fact, so he has no hesitation in sacrificing himself for the sake of the rest of the family.

This is Frank's fate. I have to say that when I watched it for the second time, I found that there are many, many details. The most attractive thing about this movie is that he does not give the audience a detailed explanation like the current detective films, and tries his best to let the audience see the director. The well-intentioned and detailed control of each shot still makes people feel far-fetched and arrogant. The details of "The Godfather" lie in every expression, every sentence, you feel shocked and reasonable after you suddenly realize it, and you want to watch it again to experience the slightest taste. In the end, I have to sigh with emotion, the works that have gone through the great waves of time are indeed good works.

    The first part has been written by God, and the second part is even better. Looking back is not a shore, and there is no shore. This is what "The Godfather" wants to talk about-a person has only one destiny. The two-line narrative also reflects the completely different principles of the two generations of godfathers, and the "alienation" of justice in the Mafia family. Coppola is more powerful than Mario Puzuo: he knows the true meaning of "behind huge wealth, there is always crime" : Evil will not end evil. The family established in the name of love at the beginning creates wealth for the family, but it is exhausted by the benefit to kill the original intention of la mafia-family, love. Tang said that it is not like being controlled by a big man like a string puppet, but in the end everyone is still the string puppet of God and destiny. The last scene is simply wonderful.

I don't want to see you at the hotels, I don't want you near my house. When you see our mother, I want to know a day in advance, so I won't be there. You understand?
