Look at the solidification of the wealthy class of American imperialism from the movie

Much better than expected. As a detective suspense film, this kind of film that stores the rapid secretion of adrenal hormones is indeed an effect of art. I don't think this film is purely commercial, after all - horror is an art too. Now, let's not talk about a political metaphor of the film, but it can indeed prove the semi-transparent structure of this film (slamming the American Conservative Party's bad attitude towards immigration issues and the problem of class solidification). So in terms of the script alone, this work can basically be regarded as a living room drama: the characters are also very representative. The three children of the head of the family: the gold eldest, the dead second son and the incompetent youngest. But whether it is the second or third generation of the old man, there is an obvious defect - parasites. Regarding detective suspense works, one of my favorite writers is the British Countess Agatha Christie, and the other is Detective Megre. I think they are both very good. The characters are reversed a lot. The process of solving the case is rather cumbersome. Also very sophisticated. I was going to leave Urumqi at that time, and I didn't go to many theaters during the same period, such as "Sherlock on the Plains", which I made up at home today.

    The most Agatha part of the whole article is not reasoning and reversal, it is the good people being tested and the good people finally winning safely, and the kind heart from beginning to end.

    3.5. Details, scenes, acting, shots are all good. It can be said that the hardware is almost impeccable. But this further highlights the bleakness of the story itself. The so-called "reversal and then inversion" can basically be guessed by anyone who has seen a little bit of reasoning. And the so-called "human nature" tells you from the beginning that this is the family. Can we really feel the so-called "complex human nature" after watching this film? I'm sorry, but I think the characters here are pretty face-to-face. The last letter is really a little trick. By contrast I can never forget the letter that appeared at the end of The Life of David Gere…

Knives Out quotes

  • Ransom Drysdale: [Driving away with Marta] I think this could be the best thing to happen to *all* of you!

    Richard Drysdale: [With the rest of the family] What does he mean by that?

  • Walt Thrombey: Marta, is it your intention to rennounce the inheritance?

    Marta Cabrera: [Marta shrugs] This is what Harlan wanted.

    Walt Thrombey: Yeah, but... Harlan put you in a very hard position here. I mean, it was unfair of him. I, I mean you see the kind of press and scrutiny that this kicks up, and you

    [hesitating]

    Walt Thrombey: and you know with your mother.

    Marta Cabrera: My mother?

    Walt Thrombey: Yeah.

    Marta Cabrera: What did Meg tell you?

    Walt Thrombey: Oh this isn't about... you're missing the point. We don't want to attack you in this, but Marta, if your mother came into the country illegally, criminally and you come into this inheritance with all of this scrutiny that entails, I'd be afraid that could come to light and that's what we want to avoid here. We can protect you from that happening or if it happens.

    Marta Cabrera: So your saying that even if it came to light, with the family's resources you could help me fix it?

    Walt Thrombey: Yeah, yeah, with the right lawyers, you know, not these local guys, but New York lawyers. D.C. lawyers, with enough resources put towards it, yes. Not that that ever even needs to come up, but, yes.

    Marta Cabrera: Okay good.

    Walt Thrombey: Okay.

    Marta Cabrera: 'cause Harlan gave me all your resouces so that means with my resources I will be able to fix it so I guess I will find the right lawers.

    Walt Thrombey: Er, Marta, that's not...

    [Marta slams the door on Walt]

    Walt Thrombey: ...you'd better be sure that's what you want.
