A good movie really stands up to scrutiny, with good details and a coherent plot. After watching "Chinatown" twice, I got a lot of details.
1. The male protagonist hates his current job content. At the beginning of the film, the actor was entrusted by a man and found evidence of the man's wife cheating. The man looked at the photo with grief and anger, but the actor was impatient at this time, and even slightly despised. This beginning shows the male protagonist's dissatisfaction with his work. He doesn't really like the detective work that can only help solve family affairs, which lays the groundwork for him to follow the "conspiracy" incident in the crisis city.
2. Morey's character is straightforward, professional, and decisive. In a voting mobilization meeting, the words used by the last member of the parliament were all inciting and arousing people's emotions, and the next one to give a speech was Morey. What was different from the previous one was that Morey's speech was short and full. It's data and historical practice, and the last sentence: I'm not going to build it, it's that simple. This is what characterizes Morey's staunch opposition to the construction project. Foreshadowing of the death of Wen Morey. After Morey's speech, many audience members cheered, and some people even chased the sheep up, indicating that the masses are very supportive of this construction project. It also shows that this project is imperative to build.
3. Facing the question from the herdsmen---"You stole the water from the pasture and destroyed the pasture", Mr. Morey frowned, sighed softly, and lowered his head. The next scene moves to the scene where the male protagonist uses binoculars to monitor Morey. When you see this and contact the whole play, you will find that Mr. Morey is actually trying to figure out the meaning of what the questioner said, which has nothing to do with his later death. have a lot to do with it. We can already vaguely feel how terrifying the people involved in this corruption case are, how great the interests are, and there can be murders.
4. Why did Gittes first look for Morey, to search his office. He had already vaguely felt that this was not just a matter of derailment, he realized that Mr. Morey had discovered the fact that the reservoir was releasing water into the river. Mr Morey's notes also show this.
5. The efficiency and corruption of the local police. In the movie, there are a lot of jokes between Guites and the police, and it can be seen that these police do nothing.
6. The reason for publishing Morey's derailment in the newspapers, so that everyone pays attention to Morey, he is about to be killed. But this did not attract public attention, everyone just thought he had committed suicide, only Gittes suspected that Mr. Morey was killed.
7. Why did the heroine sue Jites, and she quickly withdrew the accusation to maintain her image. Every time Mrs. Murray was questioned by Kitters, when she mentioned her father, Mrs. Murray was very nervous. I felt that Mrs. Murray also wanted to tell her father. She tried to tell her father, but she failed. When she met Jites again, she felt that this person could help her. Including the back, Mrs. Murray told Kitters that Murray often went to the reservoir for walks, which also helped Kitters to track the case.
8. Morey's housekeeper is always straight-faced, and the workers at home behave a bit weird. I think they are Noah Cross's eyeliner on Mr. Morey's house, watching him.
9. When Gittes went to Morey's house, a worker was washing the car, a worker was cleaning the pond, and the housekeeper was stern throughout the whole process, all of which actually implied that Mr. Morey had been killed and transported at home.
10. Mrs. Murray's eyes floated in the face of Jiters' questioning, and she led Jiters to the reservoir, where the deceased was found.
11. I took the director's business card so that I can investigate the case secretly in the future. The details are well done.
12. After Mr. Morey's death, water bonds were issued. Nojax cleared the hurdle and went on to make a fortune.
