The story takes place in a small town in North Alaska, USA. This town is named "Halibut Fishing Capital of the World", which should be the only gimmick of this town. The town is small, as the warm hotel owner in the movie said, "There are two kinds of people who live in Alaska, those who are born and raised, and those who come to escape certain things. I want to live the lifestyle I want, so murders are extremely rare here. The damp, cold, and clean in the small town in the movie reminds me of another movie "Shadow Writer". The population is sparse and the natural scenery is at hand and foot. The protagonist is dying little by little in an empty and cold environment and a strange and peaceful town. I like the story in this environment. Another natural feature provided by this small town is the polar day, the middle of the night is as bright as the day, and the 24-hour Bright freezes time, leaving new travelers empty and chaotic.
On one bright night, old detective dormer and his partner hap came here to investigate a murder case in which a 17-year-old girl was beaten to death. , Under the fog, dormer killed hap by mistake, but all this was seen by the murderer Brody, so the relationship between justice and injustice changed and implicated.
Nolan likes This is the discussion about justice and morality. The police who are too just should not be able to handle the case. People have inferior roots and weaknesses. Face these, release them, and solve the case with the perspective of being born behind the criminals. A "good" policeman's interpretation of "justice" has always been his own personal philosophy, not the kind of foreign rhetoric in the classroom on the news on TV.
Because of that mistake, dormer made him go further and further on the road of tampering with the facts. Due to the fear and questioning of dormer before hap's death, dormer was also confused about whether he killed him on purpose. Brody said he and dormer He is a fellow man, what does a man who killed a 17-year-old girl in 10 minutes talk about make a mistake? Dormer fell into insomnia for 6 days in the struggle and conflict, and the auditory hallucinations ravaged him and nearly collapsed. Dormer said in his consultation with Brody that the insurmountable homicide limit does not exist in consciousness. Yes, perhaps, many moral constraints may not exist in consciousness at all.
Later in the film, Dormer told the boss about the case of Dobes. He said that he would feel that it would bring him bad luck sooner or later. He asked the boss to judge. The boss said he was not qualified. He pleaded again. The boss said that this It was your idea of right and wrong at the time, and then you chose to accept it.
All this, without judgment, without right or wrong.
