"Nightcrawler" is about such a group of people, and Louis is the extreme representative of this group of people. Through his story, we can learn about the familiar city and the other side of human nature, the darker side.
"Nightcrawler" is the film debut of screenwriter Dan Gilroy. After watching this film full of personality and talent, you can't wait to see his next film.
If the ironic irony and bone-wrenching noirism throughout the film were the biggest surprises of the film, the second biggest surprise was Jake Gyllenhaal who played Louis — after watching the film, Jack's slender figure, ghostly figure, green eyes that look like he's always looking for prey, and the expressionless face that always has everything under control will be deeply imprinted in your mind. . Yes, in this film, Jack gave an Oscar-level performance, and not being nominated is the collective blindness of this year's Oscar judges.
The story of the film is simple: A burglar accidentally takes an interest in news shooting, and in the days that follow, he eventually becomes a connoisseur with his eccentric talent and near-insane paranoia. But the film’s core is rich and profound: like coyotes who eat carrion, Nightcrawlers chase and reflect the dark side of our humanity and society.
How much can a man pay for the pursuit of his own desires? For Nina and Louis in the film, the answer to that question is obvious: Everything.
