Because I recently read the first few Rick and Morty movies, and saw the episode of Citadel, so I read this "Training Day" again (haha
A few things I didn't notice when I watched it before:
1. When Alonzo's drug lord friend told the joke about the "snail", Jake really laughed. Seeing Alonzo's serious face, he immediately felt embarrassed, so Jake said "Smiles and Crys" to control his emotions What, because what Jake saw in that story was the snail's tenacity, "Yeah, you gotta control your smiles and crys, because that's all you have and nobody can take that away." And what Alonzo and the drug lord saw was It's "arms can't twist thighs", that's how society is, you rookie don't pretend to be arrogant and struggle, do what your buddies say, and your benefits are indispensable.
2. I forgot how many times Alonzo preached to Jake in the car. Alonzo always came up and said, "You really look like the old me blablabalbla". It was full of daddy flavor, and I thought about it in my mind. Many people, I believe that everyone will meet some such people in their life. They will say that you are very similar to the previous self, and you are full of blood and grievances, but society is like this. If you can't change it, you have to adapt to it, implying that you One day it will be like them, and, don't talk about politics, that sort of thing. They use this to justify their own depravity, and they are probably the kind of people who "desperately persuade you to learn well, so that they can do whatever they want". Maybe at a certain stage in their lives they are indeed the same as the passionate young people with a sense of justice, but they have already used their own choices to deny that kind of self. Be a life coach for the next generation. You know, some people will not make a choice against their conscience even if they are in the same bad situation. Here I originally wanted to quote the passage from "The Queen's Classroom", but obviously I forgot the words, so I won't repeat them.
3. In the last paragraph, Alonzo, who was dying, had no regrets in the face of Jake with a gun. He shouted and offered a reward to everyone to kill Jake. However, Alonzo was suffering for a long time and no one dared to do it. Seeing that people's hearts are already bewitched, Alonzo took out his police badge and put it on to force Jake not to kill him even if Jake had no intention of killing him, and at the same time stressed that killing a policeman would end in a gas chamber, he described the smell of the gas chamber seriously, in the final analysis Or intimidation, like "what's the last refuge for hooligans". Then, he continued to intimidate everyone, "I manage this place, and you just live here, and whoever I put you in jail will be imprisoned, and you will be locked in the cell 23 hours a day, never seeing the light of day", but even if it is In this way, no one is willing to personally end the "tyrant", because their minds are already thinking about the fears described by Alonzo, like every Dictator's last moment, everyone kills and fears what he has. Retaliation with power.
4. The wallet of the girl rescued by Jake. From the current point of view, this eye-catching pink wallet must be a prop that will play a key role later. The characters are full, and what they do is in line with their identities and logic, and that's enough, and it's a 2001 movie with a complete story and a sense of relaxation, plus Ethan Hawke and Denzel Great show from Washington, I wouldn't ask for more.
In addition, among the three gang members who tried to execute Jake in the bathtub, Tuco Salamanca of Breaking Bad was found (laughs).
