In the end COMEDY not? -------- "Frozen Storm"

Alyson 2022-04-22 07:01:02

I have heard a case similar to the story of "Frozen" in the TV talk column. I remember that experts discussed whether kidnapping relatives (immediate family members) constituted a crime, and similar plots have also appeared in Hong Kong films. The last time I heard such a thing was in "Crazy Stone", where Charles in the toilet taught his friends The experience of ripping off my father, saying, "You say that you have been kidnapped and ask your father to pay."
The interpretation of judicial experts is that this is illegal and is a crime. Obviously everyone knows that this is stupidity, and it is necessary to bring out the bricks here to reinforce the seriousness of stupidity. So we see a legal illiterate begin his own criminal process.
One sentence overview of the film's plot: The son-in-law hires someone to kidnap his daughter-in-law to blackmail his father-in-law, comedy or not, a matter of opinion. There are also some details in the storytelling process. Do you think you can feel comedy?
1. If you don't say a word in a car for four hours, is it a disaster to meet such a fellow traveler?
I have seen the hitchhiking section of "The Grapes of Wrath". According to the traditional American view, the driver hopes to have a hitchhiker who can tell jokes, so that the journey can be less tiring. Conversation makes people cheerful. According to the traditional Chinese traffic safety point of view, we must talk to the driver more, otherwise fatigue driving may cause the driver to fall asleep.
2. If you don't speak, I won't speak. Make a game to see who can hold on for a long time.
This game is really boring. If you curse, I will curse, if you hit, I will hit, if you kill, I will kill. Why don't he learn if he has good ones, it's really easy to learn bad ones. Look at the horrified expression on the driver's face when the patrolman was killed, but it's the same as killing him later.
3. The big man wants to eat pancakes, and this is the whole meal.
Vegetarians and meat eaters, vegetarians are not necessarily cruel, and meat eaters are not necessarily cruel. Of course they all have one thing in common, the entertainment of Blue Harbor.
4. The testimony of the two sex workers is actually thirteen points, describing the characteristics of the criminals, "not circumcised".
5. At the beginning, the business manager solves the customer complaint.
He is a manager, of course he will not ask the boss for instructions. Even a business person in a workplace that emphasizes execution will do this, go out for a walk, and then say that after asking the boss, the biggest concession that can be made is -----. Such bridges are not uncommon in real life, and I feel the same way. Lying, yes, that's the norm in business. So does he lie all the time or just lie to the police? How can we control the transgression of lies?
6. Minimum spend of $4.
Steal a license plate, it's four dollars; or turn it around for four dollars. The parking lot is somewhat similar to an amusement park, and obviously it's four dollars if you steal a license plate or not, because you're having fun. Of course, our protagonist feels that this is simply a lack of humane and arbitrary charges. If I were the director I'd add a plot where the protagonist drives in and goes around and smashes a few car windows. It is used to express the protagonist's mood swings and thought changes. We often see this kind of charge in real life, 2 yuan for sterilizing tableware, and 1 yuan for sterilizing chopsticks. I really saw people who took sterilized tableware home that day. The four dollars is actually a critique of the commercial society.
7. The sheriff's classmate.
At first it was a phone call at an inappropriate time, and then the classmates met and sat on the same side of the sheriff. The details of the eyes rolling up during the conversation, the state of laughing and crying for a while, did point to a conclusion.
8. Are you interested in the work of escorts?
I heard the talk of "Three Walks" two days ago. It seems to be called the Hong Kong Wisteria Association to safeguard the expediency of sex workers in Hong Kong. It said that some sex workers loved their work, and I was shocked. This topic has some dark humor, and only Phoenix TV can talk about it.
9. Report the statement of the bar owner to the police.
Who patronized that bar, I think it was a big man, and his language was short, so the bar owner needs to add a lot of content. The boss's reporting language logic is very poor. Call him a fool and kill, which is in line with the characteristics of a big man. And the little guy can't go wrong looking for an escort. Certainly not making up the words "The person who called me a fool last time was dead, and he died young."
10. Welcome statue and 9:1 composition.
At the beginning of this film, there are several shots in which the ratio of heaven and earth is flipped 9:1, which is very interesting, and the edge is very vivid. There is a statue repeatedly in the film, "Welcome to", a lumberjack carrying an axe and the welcome words are somewhat unworthy.

At the end of the police car, the female sheriff's question was not answered. "Life isn't worth that small amount, you know" "And now it's the end, on this beautiful day."
Obsessive-compulsive disorder, how can autistic patients experience a beautiful day, how can schizophrenic patients who have communication but not autism like the sheriff's classmates experience a beautiful day? You can see that ordinary people are eager for quick success and distorted ego, and they will only deviate more on this road.

    At first glance, it is the works of the Cohn brothers. As always, there may be a pleasant surprise in those years, but I feel a bit tired after seeing more of Cohn's works.

    The Coen brothers are particularly good at telling stories. Their stories are calm, calm, and dull like Maggie's life, but they are not boring. Compared with the thunder of the earth, the Coen brothers at this time were more calm when shaking off a suspense. Stupid mind and inner peace are both important factors that affect people’s behavior. The two robbers and Shelly died for tens of thousands of dollars, and when they went to jail, Maggie was happy for her husband, and peace is power.
