This film was misunderstood by me, thinking that the theme was wrong, and now I realize that I was wrong, and the tragic ending is part of its intention. An idol commercial action film 27 years ago is actually an advanced critical realism work.
The structure of the story is very simple, and the meaning is profound and comprehensive. The peak duel between the two male gods cannot escape the sad ending. Al Pacino, the policeman, shot and killed Robert De Niro, the robber. The wrong work platform, zero-sum a cannibalism between heroes. Two capable and good people are equally dazzling, courageous and kind, equally prudent and thoughtful, equally virtuous and wise, and equally fraternal and chivalrous. They have the feeling that they can understand each other without speaking. If they are not opponents, they should be the best partners. However, the heroic robber who never hurt the innocent and eradicated the scum all the way was finally killed by the heroic police representing justice. This is the inevitable result of two opposing forces. This film contains two ideas: 1. People are not equal, and they are divided into good and bad grades. The hierarchy of people should not be defined from superficial concepts. If the quality of a person is defined only by the "occupation, social and family status" he is engaged in, or some kind of "moral advantage" that is not analyzed and established by convention, it will nourish the scumbags of all walks of life, or a variety of An ill-conceived moral kidnapping. The substantive standard for defining "the quality of a person" is the size of its objective ability. Note that this ability does not mean cheating, opportunism, or playing with "human weakness", but refers to the ability to approach and serve the facts to the greatest extent possible under the simple life and attitude of doing things. The greater the objectivity, the better the mind, and vice versa. In the film, non-objective gangsters abound. They are mixed in the ranks of the police and robbers. If they can't make things happen, they will only have bad things. The contradictions and conflicts in the film are not between the two strongmen, but between the strongmen and the cowards within the two groups. Therefore, the first thing that should be eliminated is not so much the robber group, but the messy people in all groups. In fact, there is no need to worry about this, even if the strongman does not make a move, the society will complete the final shuffle in the process of moving forward, and those who are not qualified will be deleted. 2. Excellent people also need a right working platform, otherwise their abilities will only cancel each other out in the end, which is meaningless. The platform for robbery must be wrong, which is why the police is the opposite. As the same force to contend against, the two are of the same nature. The reason is very simple. Once a non-existent force is formed, it will inevitably produce a force to counteract it. They are in the relationship of birth and death. Therefore, there is only a truly right work platform that can not produce opposites. It can unite all useful people, make efforts to make one, and produce a high-quality life without negative effects. Obviously, the right platform is difficult to build, so let's not delve into it. What sets the film apart from other cop movies is that it questions the working platform that currently exists: Whether it's a robber or a cop, their lives are a mess. In the end, the robber couldn't get together with his lover. The police faced the third marital crisis. The adopted daughter he loved committed suicide because he couldn't get the love of his biological father. Everyone was in a difficult situation. The movie uses a lot of space to describe the dilemma of their respective private lives, to illustrate: it is not the police who won in the end, the matter is right, how can it be that simple, the pursuit of the police and bandits is just a game, and everyone faces life itself. The test, the problem is far from solved. What the film really wants to reveal is that everyone is in a realistic environment where "the platform is wrong and no one can get through", and this is where the advanced nature of the film lies. But after all, this is just a movie and not reality. In reality, as long as the platform is not right, people with strong objectivity will not be able to exert their energy. They usually show decadence and nothing to do, just so that the audience will not be able to see the excitement of the heroic duel. scene. In order to meet people's sensory entertainment needs, the film has to ignore this fact, and has to insist that the elites enter the game track that does not exist in their own spirit. So we saw a blockbuster with a very enjoyable process and a very excessive ending. Well, if the story has another ending, will the sheriff show the courage of a strong man to let the robbers go? The moment he let go, it should also be the moment for the robber to wash his hands. No, I guess it's still not the best ending. The best ending is that one day there will be no more robbers and no police in this world. What will the two heroes do? Once again, they will no longer have the opportunity to confront each other, they will all find their rightful positions, and have a brand new ending of walking hand in hand. Not only them, but also all useful people. But after all, this is just a movie and not reality.
