Some details and logic need to be looked back to find

1. David, the Customs Commissioner, is self-righteous, wise, and full of Keaton, and the questions he asks are "mostly about Keaton". Based on his "understanding of Keaton", he actually already believed that Keaton was the mastermind behind the question before he came to question. He questioned and analyzed issues with his own subjective judgment, not based on case analysis. The cripple saw David's weakness as soon as he came up and took advantage of it later.

2. The 42-point cripple laughed secretly after hearing David guess that Keaton was the mastermind behind the scenes (the director handled this detail very well, and deliberately gave a close-up, Kevin's laughing and closing performance is really good ), the cripple went along the way, taking advantage of David's weakness, pretending to be weak and ignorant, mainly relying on acting to deceive David, but the last part of killing the whistleblower Markz made up a story.

3. About which is lame and which is true. The statement to the district attorney only recorded that the five of them conspired to rob the police taxi of diamonds, the drugs and money of the Hungarians, but the five of them did not follow the stolen goods REDFOOT (REDFOOT) and the lawyer Kobayashi. paragraph story. The things that REDFOOT and Kobayashi told David were true, but the names were made up.

4. This film also criticizes corruption and darkness in that era to a certain extent, the police trampling on the human rights of suspects, the police smuggling, the mayor and the governor colluding with the cripple, etc.
