Gangster movies without ***police***

The road to destruction is that there is no police at all, and the gangster film where the judicial intervention is involved
has a term called "underworld" in China and "underground society" in the West
. Obviously, the grievances and hatreds in the underworld are
the interests and emotions of individuals who are not controlled by the agreed law. The driving factors of all activities (murder, fire prevention, abduction...) are
in the whole story without police yelling, using the underworld way of doing things,
torturing human nature, family affection, and responsibility. . . It saves a lot of film costs, it looks concise and clear, and
the tone of the sharp film is also dark. The whole story is either snowing or raining.
There is only a short period of sunshine near the beach hut, and the good life is always fleeting.

One thing needs to be clarified.
Many film critics said that the whole tragedy was caused by Michael's peeping at the murder. After 007 wanted to get rid of it, it was
just nonsense
. The director portrayed Newman's dissatisfaction with 007 again and again and the intimacy between Newman and Hanks, which
is obviously a reminder to watch. The officer, 007, who has little roots, is jealous and wants to get rid of the Hanks family.
The so-called fear of little Mike leaking the wind is just a rhetoric. At the end of the film that lied to the old man,

there is finally a bright confession
that the little Mike who lost his father did not embark on the road of destruction as the title of the film. It
is a wish of Hanks
from Fighting and killing all the way to the return of little Mike to the pastoral
, from the panic and rebellion of little Mike, to the definition of Hanks: he is my father
The director used the mouth of little Mike to re-emphasize the broad and heavy relationship between father and son
Hanks is Mike 's father, newman is not 007's father!
Because of this, the collision of two father-son love is so thrilling

However, is this kind of happiness and enmity that can be seen in normal society?

Road to Perdition quotes

  • Maguire: Smile.

  • [last lines]

    Michael Sullivan, Jr.: I saw then that my father's only fear was that his son would follow the same road. And that was the last time I ever held a gun. People always thought I grew up on a farm. And I guess, in a way, I did. But I lived a lifetime before that, in those six weeks on the road in the winter of 1931. When people ask me if Michael Sullivan was a good man, or if there was just no good in him at all, I always give the same answer. I just tell them... he was my father.
