"Ice Blood Storm" after watching~

Deontae 2022-04-23 07:01:01

Jerry, a man with big ambitions, business acumen and ambition, but has been suffering from the lack of a platform to show him, and he has always been depressed.
In order to stand out, Jerry married Jean, a mediocre and unattractive woman! (Reminds me of Zhuge Liang~~) Jean's family is very rich, and Jerry finally "married" into a wealthy family through hard work. Just when he was glad that he had the opportunity to display his ambitions, he found that things were different from what he imagined. His father-in-law, Wade, a shrewd old man, despised him from the bottom of his heart, and also held the financial power of the family. But his wife Jean is just like her appearance. She is a very mediocre and lazy woman. She is very satisfied with the current life without worrying about food and clothing. She has no ambitions. care, don't care.
Wade arranged for Jerry to be a car sales manager in his company, a stable career without any real power.
Jerry doesn't want to waste his life, because he is Jerry, a man with ideals, big ambitions and ambitions. He has always wanted to start a business to change his position in the family and prove himself to his father-in-law, wife, son and everyone around him! He is always looking for business opportunities.
With his keen business intuition and sharp business vision, he spotted a piece of land and felt that if it was converted into a parking lot, he would make a lot of money.
But he didn't have the money to invest himself, so he gave his father-in-law the business plan, hoping that he could lend him money and let him show off his skills. After Jerry begged his father-in-law many times, Wade never agreed to him. He also told Jean about the plan and asked her to ask Wade for money, but Jean was not at all interested in his ambitions, and felt that his life was good now.
Jerry felt very helpless, his father-in-law looked down on him, and his wife didn't even understand him. But this is definitely a good opportunity, he must seize this opportunity!
Jerry came up with a strategy, that is, to find someone to kidnap Jean, and "blackmail" himself, let Wade pay 1 million ransom.
Just as the kidnapping plan started, Wade asked his agent to evaluate the business plan and found that it was a very genius idea that was sure to make a lot of money. After Jerry learned the news, he felt that the emperor paid off, and his time finally came, which can be said to be a spring breeze. So decided to cancel the previous kidnapping plan!
But what he never expected was that Wade did not give him a chance, but wanted to invest in this project himself and kick him out. And the kidnapping plan has not been canceled. Depressed Jerry returned home and saw that Jean was kidnapped, so he took the plan. . .
This is how the story begins, but things do gradually get out of control, and finally have to end in tragedy.
In the play, the Jerry couple and the Marge couple were compared.
Marge, a woman with a successful career, is smart and has great communication skills. At work, she is her husband's boss, but she always encourages her husband. Even when his paintings are only used on 3-cent stamps, she still comforts and encourages him. She is a strong woman outside, and she is indeed a good helper at home.

Fargo quotes

  • Irate Customer: We sat right here, in this room, and went over this and over this.

    Jerry Lundegaard: Yeah, but that TruCoat...

    Irate Customer: I sat right here and said I didn't want any TruCoat.

    Jerry Lundegaard: Yeah, but I'm saying that TruCoat. You don't get it, you get oxidation problems. It'll cost you a heck of a lot more than $500.

    Irate Customer: You're sitting there. You're talking in circles. You're talking like we didn't go over this already.

    Jerry Lundegaard: Yeah, but this TruCoat...

    Irate Customer: We had a deal here for nineteen-five. You sat there and darned if you didn't tell me you'd get me this car, these options, without the sealant for nineteen-five.

    Jerry Lundegaard: All right, I'm not saying I didn't...

    Irate Customer: You called me 20 minutes ago and said you had it ready to make delivery! You says, "Come on down and get it." And, and, and here you are and you're wasting my time and my wife's time, and I'm paying nineteen-five for this vehicle here!

    Jerry Lundegaard: All right. I'll talk to my boss.

    [gets up and turns before leaving]

    Jerry Lundegaard: See, they install that TruCoat at the factory. There's nothing we can do about that.

    [Customer ready to shout]

    Jerry Lundegaard: but I'll talk to my boss.

    Irate Customer: These guys here. These guys. It's always the same! It's always more!

  • Marge Gunderson: So, do you remember getting a phone call late Wednesday night?

    Shep Proudfoot: [after a short pause] No.

    Marge Gunderson: You do reside there at 1425 Freemont Terrace?

    Shep Proudfoot: Yes.

    Marge Gunderson: Anyone else residing there?

    Shep Proudfoot: No.

    Marge Gunderson: Well, Mr. Proudfoot, this call came in past three in the morning. It's just hard for me to believe you don't remember anyone calling. Now, I know you've had some problems; struggling with the narcotics, some other entanglements, currently on parole.

    Shep Proudfoot: So?

    Marge Gunderson: Well, associating with criminals, if you're the one they talked to, that right there would be a violation of your parole; would end you up back in Stillwater. I saw some rough stuff on your priors, but nothing like a homicide. I know you don't wanna be an accessory to something like that.

    [after another pause]

    Marge Gunderson: So... you think you might remember who those folks were who called ya?
