In no particular order: details to be explained

3 points: 14. Bullet holes in the shape of a man in the bed, and a portrait in a shattered glass frame.

Eve's dialogue: i'v been looking for him since yesterday.

------This is very interesting. Yesterday here can refer to yesterday according to the plot, or it can echo the yesterday in the soundtrack. In fact, this film is about yesterday. Use this word to refer to the past or the passing away.

According to the plot, the contradiction is that in the subsequent plot, the male protagonist called the police station on the day he said goodbye to Eve. And he was hunted down as a traitor, but it was the next day. So what happened after he finished the phone call? Why wasn't he there himself? Where has he gone? An opium den? Why did his friends die but he escaped? Isn't it weird? If Noodles originally thought, he called the police to save Max's life by putting himself and his friends in jail. This is a doubt.


5 points: 18. How could Mo know that the male protagonist is in a Chinese theater?

Underworld Dialogue 1: Who are you protecting? Is that the scumbag who betrayed his friends? Those people are also your friends. (Explain why the male protagonist was hunted down, betrayed and betrayed)

Underworld Dialogue 2: I get it, you want to end up with that bitch. (Foreshadowing for the later plot, don't speculate from this sentence that Eve has been killed)

    Years make people grow old. 30 years later, the memories of the past are bittersweet.

    It's boring. It took almost four hours to narrate such a thing in a chaotic and vague manner, and I have to say it was a failure.

Once Upon a Time in America quotes

  • Frankie Minaldi: Hey, Joe, tell these guys the story about the pussy being insured. What is it? Tell these guys how you stumbled on this whole thing. Tell them the story. Come on. Pussy insurance, the insurance pussies. Tell them that story.

    Joe Minaldi: Life is stranger than shit, that's all. It's a pisser. No big story. I got this insurance agent, this Jew kid named David. He conned me into every policy in the world. Every policy, name it, dogs, house, wife, life, anything. I'm drinking with the boys one night. He comes in with his wife, a brunette with a nice ass who works for a jeweller. And he's still on the hustle, this guy. So I wink at the guys, I say, "Look... the most serious policy, you don't have me covered for." He goes, "What's that, Joe?" "Cock insurance. You make me a policy that when it don't work, I get a payment. I'll write out a check now." He thinks, and he says, "I don't know if the actuality gauges govern this... but we can make a policy. But you gotta guarantee you're in good health now." I says, "Look, leave her with me. Come back and see if it stands up. If it stands up, you know I'm in good health." The jerk leaves her. I screw her. Not only that, she likes it. And she tells me when her boss, the jeweller is shipping stones to Holland, where he keeps his stash - in a drawer in the safe - everything! Can't ask for more, right? Except, one better. I never paid the first premium on the new cock policy.

    Max: [laughing] Cock insurance...

    Joe Minaldi: Life is funnier than shit. But... be easy with the girl. I mean that. Be easy with the girl.
