The Lost Lamb's Way of Redemption
Heart disease, heart disease. Finally, I couldn't help but write a review for the movie "Rage Rescue" starring Denzel Washington. The movie has been stored on the mobile phone for a long time, I have watched it many times, and wanted to write a movie review. I have been getting carried away, and now I finally put it into practice.
5 minutes and 20 seconds, such a moving 5 minutes and 20 seconds, the distance from 47 minutes 46 seconds to 53 minutes 06 seconds in the film, the director's perfect control of this image, it can be said to be the epitome of the whole film, it is amazing . Before writing the main content, I have to recite this video. If you are stuck in your throat, don't say unpleasant.
5 minutes and 20 seconds, close-up, a black hand, rings the doorbell. As soon as the camera turned, Pinta (the heroine) picked up a small yellow flower from the door and gave it to Krish (the hero), "Thank you", and then brought it to the shirt. A small flower, bright yellow, grows naturally at the door, pick it at will, and send it out with normal movements, showing casualness, a kind of warmth between family members. The texture of the picture is full of soft light, and the lens is very beautiful. At this time, an old man with glasses (the piano teacher who taught Pinta to practice the piano) came out to exchange a few words with Chrissy, and led Pinta up to the second floor to practice the piano. The normal life on the street is full of tranquility. Chrissy sat on a bench, and could clearly see the curtains wafting out of the piano room window opposite.
A quiet bench on the street, the little yellow flower on Chrissy's shirt, the elegant and peaceful atmosphere around, the beautiful rhythm of the piano sound and the pianist's scolding from time to time, "Pingta" . Close-up of the face, the camera moves slowly clockwise over Krish's face. The unique softness of black skin color, the curtains of the piano room fluttering gently in the wind, everything complements this peaceful and quiet afternoon and is harmonious.
Dog, Sam, Pinta's pet. The silence was broken by the barking of Sam and the other dog. Chrissy stood up to stop it, and the atmosphere returned to calm again, the curtains of the piano room still fluttering gently in the wind, a beautiful prelude. Chrissy led the dog to the door and put the dog in the car.
A car passed by the road in front of him, stopped again, and then reversed, the harsh friction between the tires and the road, the untimely panic bells in the distance, accompanied by the rapid horns of all kinds of cars, not far away The idle street police, all elements of peace and tranquility are completely broken, and the noise and chaos of the surrounding environment are released. Shaking light and shadow in the lens, noise mixed with the sound of the piano. The camera moves quickly and frequently, and the background music continues to intensify with Krishna's uneasy expression and the fast rhythm of the film, one wave after another. Various sub-shots convey various disturbing information about the surrounding environment. At this time, as soon as the camera was given, a small white hand pushed open the door of the piano room, and Pinta walked out of the door. There is also the policeman's incomprehensible, messy and hurried foreign language. The camera image changes rapidly, and the rhythm of the heartbeat is matched, which further exacerbates the tension in the external environment.
Pulling out the pistol on his waist, Krishna shouted, "Pingta", the little yellow flowers on the shirt on his chest were bright and moving. Krishna pointed the gun to the sky, and the trembling of the gun and arm, together with Pinta's face frightened by the gunshot, completed an instant change with the first gunshot in the 5 minutes and 20 seconds. Pinta ran away. Chrissy was shot in the left chest by a police officer on the side. The police are actually with the kidnappers. Krishna was indistinguishable between us and enemy, and he was desperate. The fierce shootout became more and more intense. The noisy street environment, the screeching local dialect, the irritable car noises, and the shaking images all rushed to direct the shootout scene. Clichy was shot again, and the shot fell to the ground, and the bullet came out of the gun of the law enforcement police. Chrissy then fired a fatal shot, hitting the officer who shot. Finally, he also slowly fell to the ground. This last shot first gives the little girl Pinta a close-up of her overall state of panic, panic, and crying, followed by the sound of gunshots, followed by Krish being shot and falling to the ground. The little girl Pinta ran back desperately and threw herself on the fallen Krishna. He was then mercilessly taken away by the kidnappers. The shot becomes a black and white overlapping light and shadow.
The whole process, 5 minutes and 20 seconds, changes from static to dynamic rhythm. Magical images, shots, music, expressions, content, emotions, good and evil, and choices are intertwined into a shadow, hearty and smooth. The use of multiple cameras from various angles of the scene has formed such a vivid and textured image that magnifies the audience's perception. Can not help but admire the director's skilled shooting and editing skills, and throughout the film. Words are always limited, and the movie itself is truly shocking.
And these 5 minutes and 20 seconds are just the transition from the warm, loving and quiet prelude of the whole movie to the thunderous revenge like "losing a loved one" in the latter part of the movie. The link between the previous and the next also reflects the tone of the whole movie, from static to dynamic, from warmth to anger.

1. Dance with the inner devil.
Chrissy, the male protagonist, has 16 years of military experience. He has engaged in anti-riot work in Thailand, Pakistan, Jordan, Angola, Lebanon and other countries, and has rich anti-terrorism experience. Perhaps it was the tiredness of killing, or the guilt of the innocent lives that had been hurt, so that he could not extricate himself and escape. Alcohol, use alcohol to drown sorrow, use alcohol to temporarily numb yourself, cover up your inner fear, curb the demons deep in your soul, and struggle with the sequelae of war. The pain of psychic trauma rips, scorches, and torments the deep-seated soul of the person behind the sunglasses and the beard. Unable to redeem oneself. Even in a joke with old friend Ray, there needs to be this kind of inquiry - does God forgive us for what we do? Ray, I don't think so. I don't think so either.
Late at night, the rain was crying. In the small room, Krishna in the dark night does not need to hide, the expression of sadness and joy is uncertain, the sadness is the struggle of inner pain, and the joy is the release after the embrace of death. The bullet from the gun chamber, the trembling left hand could not catch the trace of death. The Bible and bullets, the choice between life and death, redemption and fall, the soul walking on a tightrope between God and the devil. Facing the bullet in the temple, pull the trigger, free forever, without hesitation, the music dances frantically in front of the grim smile of death, the confusion and freeness of the camera image devours the fragile soul. As if there was a voice urging the finger on the trigger, gently, waiting for that violent sound, everything, everything will end. The bullets that were supposed to come out of the bore were now silent. "Bullets never lie". What remains is endless prostration and the mockery of death, and perhaps a nostalgia for the lingering of life. Chrissy in the rain looked lost and helpless, a melancholy bear, a wounded bear, and a desperate bear. Life still needs to wait, waiting for the redemptive angel of fate.
2. The redemption of angels.
Pinta, the heroine. Angel face, pure smile, kind heart. She is St. Jude of Chrissy, the patron saint of the despairing. She is the weak little yellow flower in Krish Bear's heart that needs protection. The Redemption of Melancholy Big Bear Krishna in Pinta's Diary - Hope You Love Me, You Are My Favorite Bear. I love you, Chrissy Bear. I love you, Chrissy Bear.
"The Bible says you don't have to conquer evil, but overcome it with goodness—Romans, chapter 12, verse 21." Chrissy told the nun that he was a lost lamb, and the lost lamb was melancholy in Pinta's eyes Big Bear, his own Krish bear. In Zhou Guoping's book, I read this: "Compared with believers who never make mistakes, God is more merciful to those lambs that have gone astray." I don't want to say what kind of gift from God that brought Pinta into Krish's life. As a child, she did even better because of her golden innocence and pure innocence. "Innocence is the highest aesthetic—Wang Kailing."
"I was hired to be a bodyguard, not a friend." At the beginning, Krishna was still closed to the outside world and would not let in oil and rice. There was a discussion in the car, "What are the advantages or disadvantages of black people being bodyguards in Mexico?" If I really want to be speechless, what kind of problem is this. The kid is really innocent, smart, innocent and cute. Then, when it was mentioned that Pinta took office as a bodyguard because someone else had a high price tag and chose another good branch, Krishna's answer was also humorous: "Then I'm not a cheap product," I laughed dumbly. At this time, the relationship between the two was still in the employment relationship of a cold stranger, not a close friend, but it was clear that the unawakened love and kindness in Krishna's heart. There is also the natural nature of Pinta.
The turning point begins with the swimming competition, the relationship between the two. "Accept the sound, it sets you free," Clichy shouted to Pinta, who was terrified of the gunshots before entering the water. Chrissy was mentoring Pinta, who was about to compete, and the two became close friends, father and daughter, and Pinta won the swimming competition. A turning point, a turning point for redemption. Here I am more inclined to such details - the two are in the kitchen, Pinta is doing history homework, and suddenly asks Krish what is a concubine? The emperor of China had thousands of concubines. After Krishch explained, he asked, do you think the emperor of China is pitiful? Pinta replied, imagine if my mother became a thousand. Chrissy was amused, and Pinta said as if he had found a treasure, Chrissy, you laughed. The music plays, just the right amount of light music. Chrissy immediately denied it, and a game of who to laugh followed immediately.
The harmonious atmosphere, the appropriate and soft background music, the friendly dialogue like a father and a daughter, a completely normal Krishna appeared, a normal person, a normal person who broke free from the shackles of his heart, a normal person whose inner ice melted, A normal person who has been redeemed.
What is worthy of admiration is the timely connection point when the background light music sounds, which is natural and smooth, without seams, and correspondingly interesting, from the words of the conversation to the emotional fit and the reflection of the soul. Just like making soup, at the right time, the authentic fragrance overflows every corner of the entire kitchen, which is the heart-warming sense of happiness. That's what the nun by the pool said to Chrissy - you're Pinta's father today. It is the necklace that Pinta gave to Chrissy - St. Jude, the protector of the desperate.
3. Burning with anger, the thrill of thunderous revenge.
Revenge - do what I'm good at, kill them all, whoever's involved, whoever gains, whoever dares to look at me.
Revenge - The judicial policeman who was tortured to death in a car and then pushed off a cliff, one of the members of Rahmanda, the so-called professional staff. That, the opera climax of "Nobody's Sleeping Tonight".
Revenge - Pintaremus, it's just a statistic for you, one more death toll, but it's just a number. How important is that to Krishna? Pinta, she made him feel worth living.
Revenge - Man becomes an artist in any field, food, etc. The key is to what degree of specialization, Clichy's art is to kill people, to die.
Revenge - The old man told Chrissy that the Bible teaches us to forgive. Forgiveness is between them and God, Krishta, and my job is to arrange for them to meet. The old man was completely speechless.
Revenge - Bullets don't lie, never lie. This bullet won't kill me, maybe, it will kill you.
Revenge - Fu Entai, according to himself, is Chairman Rahmanda. He was also a direct participant and beneficiary of the Pinta kidnapping case, as well as the head of the government's anti-kidnapping department. In the end, he was killed by "exploding the anus" with C4 explosives. I am also speechless.
Revenge - "Voice"'s younger brother, who had just held the phone in his right hand, his left hand was sprayed with a shotgun, and shouted horribly. In this heart-piercing cry, any voice in the world was stunned, and all were stunned. Empty. Including the head of the Brotherhood, called "The Voice" because of his nickname. A very revengeful scene.
Some sins can only be atonement, not washed away. ——Balzac
's words are not only for Clichy himself, but also for all the villains who have done a lot of evil but have no conscience- They always say that, I am a professional, when it comes to threw up. Chrissy can redeem himself through his love for Pinta. Although, in those countless dark nights, the guilt grew wildly in Krishna's heart, to break through his chest - some sins were inexorable. He also struggled, committed suicide, and the right hand he grabbed also acted as the "Hand of God" of judgment, but also because of this God's hand, the bullet to the temple did not come out, "the bullet never lies", stay Give him a chance at redemption - Pinta. The hand of God has finally become the hand of redemption. After the Pinta accident, the hand of redemption returned to the hand of God of judgment. This time, the object of the hand of God was not myself but—anyone concerned, anyone who profited, anyone who dared to look at me. Including Pinta's biological father, Samuel, who was fed the bullet that refused to kill Chrissy in his head. Maybe Pingta's father deserves sympathy and is fundamentally different from other related villains, but the road he embarked on is the same as these villains, and it is a road of no return - he betrayed his daughter Ping Tower, but also betrayed himself.
The empty bridge, that is the last intersection of Krish and Pinta's lives. "Hey", Krish Bear and the little girl looked at each other and smiled, everything will end, including Krish's redemption. The last two looked back, the flow and blur of the scenery outside the car window, the expression of Chrissy's absent-mindedness, and St. Jude, the patron saint of the despairing, quickly slipped from the black fingers. It doesn't matter if Krish is dead or alive in the end, the dust settles.
The heart disease is over, let's end it. Leave the end to the touching scene and the touching song in the movie.
In the evening, the starling flew back again, and Pinta shouted. In a black T-shirt Chrissy stood up and came to the window.
"How did it come out?" Pinta asked.
"I let it out," Chrissy replied.
"Freedom is better, right?" Pinta said.
"It's better for it." Chrissy said again, "Actually, I'm going to be driven mad by him."
Pinta smiled, "Good night."
"Good night." The soft light in the room reflected gently from behind Chrissy.
The touching song, the climax sounded.
Pinta hugged the teddy bear and jumped onto the bed in a whirling dance. Pinta dances with "Bear", her Krish bear.
That moving song, "Blue Bayou".
