Then the only confusing thing happened, Anna wanted Joy to accompany her home to find the red whistle, but she "prepared the father for everything" and let the little ones leave without confirming whether the older ones were with them. You need to know that a cautious person will cause consequences after only one carelessness, and his subsequent remedial actions will often overcorrect.
The fact that Alex has a driver's license is very strange. First of all, he should not have obtained the test. Obviously, the child has difficulties in communication. Second, his real name is not Alex, so the driver's license should be the original Alex's, but who is this person? Is it their dead child? The video doesn't seem to give an answer. But for a kidnapping suspect who has been detained for 48 hours, it is truly incredible that his fake identity information can be concealed from the sky.
I always thought that Alex's IQ was very random, so he was locked up in the police station for 48 hours, had Keller grabbed by the collar for ten seconds, and then gave that sentence to Keller, more or less. Deliberately create the suspicion of dramatic conflict. And with this sentence, it also slightly diluted the evil value of Keller's behavior after that, of course, only slightly.
In fact, at first I wasn't sure whether Alex was a criminal, but when Keller executed his prison sentence, even if it was certain that he was not, and not only was he not, this kid must have a poor background. Sure enough, the film first uses Loki to investigate the case of missing children 20 years ago, leads to a poor mother who has been watching her son's video tapes, and finally points out Alex's life experience. Keller has always abused a poor child who was abducted like his daughter.
Like the Kellers, the Jones family is also a faithful believer. They not only believe in God themselves, but also make pamphlets to spread the gospel to others. But the death of my son from cancer changed them, I have always believed in you so much, why did you make me suffer so badly. They have misunderstood the purpose of faith from the very beginning. Faith does not have the ability to keep people away from misfortune, but it can make you better out of misfortune. But the Jones family has since become the devil.
Old Jones went to the priest to pray, not to atone for his sins, but to declare war on God with pride, and then disappear.
Mrs. Jones, who lost her backbone, was incapable of committing crimes until one day two little girls came to her door.
My biggest disgust with Keller is not that he imprisoned Alex. One is that his daughter is too important to his father, and the other is that despite the torture, he has always shown his inner struggle. My distaste for him comes from the fact that, while identifying the clothes, after he found his daughter's socks, he said to Loki, "You wasted your time stalking me, you made this happen." Don't say that Loki has always done his best. Conscientiously working on the case, even if he stalks you, it's because you're also committing a crime, Loki basically does everything impeccable. You can't act recklessly and arbitrarily just because it's your relatives who are missing.
Two children who were tortured 20 years ago, were tortured in more brutal ways, Alex was abused beyond recognition, and Bob Taylor shot himself. Everyone else, is either evil or is harmed by evil. Only Loki was alone, but he couldn't see the slightest happiness on his face, and from the few words he revealed, his childhood was equally miserable.
At the end of the film, he always wanted to save his daughter's father in an evil way, but was saved by the whistle that his daughter had left behind. After the whole film is baptized by evil, it can finally end with good.
Trivia:
1. At the beginning of the movie, there is a shot of Anna and Joy looking at the mouse in the cage. After the incident, Keller felt that he had taken action and imprisoned Alex, and the camera was given to the mouse again, and it turned black. Foreshadows Keller's transformation from a saint to a sinner.
2. The film was first submitted to the MPAA and received an NC-17 rating for its tone and theme, which was later revised to an R rating after cutting scenes of torture and some hints of pedophilia.
3. Detective Loki is clearly seen wearing a Masonic ring on his left hand in many shots.
4. Hugh Jackman plays the father of a kidnapped daughter in this film. He had hoped to play a similar role in "The Lovely Bones" (2009), but this role was finally acquired by Mark Wahlberg. And Mark Wahlberg was also considered to be the protagonist of the film.
5. The film was originally scheduled to star Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale and directed by Bryan Singer. But later, Wahlberg and Bale chose to star in "The Fighter" together.
6. Leonardo DiCaprio followed the film for a long time, but eventually pulled out.
7. Paul Dano admits that the character's personality (learning disabilities, screaming, nonsense growls) appeals to him, and he can use his own personal experience to perfectly recreate the character.
8. When the film was supposed to be directed by Antoine Fuqua, Hugh Jackman was interested in it, but then both dropped out, and when the film started again a few years later, Hugh Jackman returned to star.
9. Holly asked Keller to drink more potion, which was played on the spot by Melissa Leo, because she felt that the potion Hugh Jackman was drinking was not enough to make the scene believable.
