From HBO "OZ" Last Episode:
Beecher: "If you think I got any satisfaction for killing him, you're wrong....after 6 years in this place, I 'm not sure of anything any more, heven, justice, truth...there's only one thing I can believe is'life', every life is precious, not yours or mine, but every single person on the planet who is breathing. ..There lives are precious, and a lost of a single life even in OZ, is my lost too."
Keller: "Oh that's bullshit."
OZ, so far, can be the only one that can be put in my American TV classics store. After a long struggle, it seems that HBO is the one that most favors me. In this HBO pioneering production that ended in 1997 and ended in 2003, "not sure of anything any more", heaven? justice? truth? But after experiencing the first season like a line drawing, the climax of the second and third seasons, and the precipitation of the four, five and six seasons, I believe that the screenwriter took all kindness and compassion to write this violent and dark script. Even so, borrowing the confession of a certain main character still gets a "bullshit" in others' mouths. OZ’s stories are too many and complicated (basically covering all prison themes), and OZ’s ideas are too rich and intense. If the beginning and the middle of the story give people more excitement than reflection, after learning countless swear words, people will have a tendency to be violent. As it unfolds, its recurring violent blood deceives hate conspiracy helpless anger lies naked. The original stimulus dissipated unconsciously and replaced by desire. No longer angry, the violent dangerous element said "I'm so tired", and the long-sleeved conspirator picked up the Bible and prayed. This is the OZ where a cigarette and a mobile phone can lead to several lives, the hell where the most innocent villains in the world gather-but this is like a history of human growth, in all the people who are reduced to animality. Discover the humans themselves. During the six-year long journey, we were initially attracted by the most primitive laws of survival. However, violence and bloodshed do not necessarily lead to violence and bloodshed, because, thank God, in the end, we are still rational.
PEACE, this is the last narration of OZ, who is known to be extremely dark.
OZ, the full name of Oswald Maximum Security Penitentiary, is the fourth extreme felon prison. EM, the full name of Emerald city, a certain area in OZ, is structured to monitor and reform extreme felons with the lowest level of security. EM is full of glass transparency, every detail can’t be concealed. Prisoners watch TV, play cards, go to the gym, and when prison guards travel around, people who see it for the first time have a kind of "this is the legendary OZ." Doubts.
Indeed, although at first glance, the Emerald City is brightly lit, it is not a heaven but also enough for the world; but those who saw OZ firmly swear that FOX RIVER in PB is a children’s paradise, or the one in Xiao Shenke’s salvation is a welfare Nursing homes, etc.-I support, let me stay in OZ for a day, I am very willing to go to FOX RIVER to hold T-bag's white pocket...
The purpose of HBO, not to mention the very "It's not TV," "it's HBO", fully aware that "there is not the most aggressive, only the more aggressive." Regarding the violence that is full of fingering, the fierce racial contradictions, the unavoidable same-sex sex (I promise is not a type of fantasy) and the loss of all beliefs, PG-21 is for the comrades who have not received such training. , The threshold is still a bit low.
The Emerald City has no protagonist, no good or evil. When the little lawyer who was supposed to be the protagonist in the first episode disappeared after shaking for ten minutes, the second-in-command of the Italian gang started to molest the prison doctor MM again, making me think it might be a late game. A match completely burned the little brother into coke, and the screenwriter slapped the audience slapped the audience: It was what I wanted to show you, not what you asked me to shoot-so there is no good and no evil, completely lost.
EM convinced us that ancient Rome did have a glorious arena and the audience could cheer and watch without any psychological barriers-even today, who dares to say that this is no longer possible for humans? EM is hell, either you die or I die; EM is heaven, the most primitive freedom of man-as long as you don't die.
The poor lawyer Beecher was sentenced to 15 years in jail for hitting the girl to death while drunk driving. This moral and faith-constrained middle class entered EM City. It is not suitable to use sheep into wolves to explain, because many years later, it was completely abnormal. Classmate Keller has refuted with these words: "not OZ make you a bitch, you are born one." It can only be said that it is... stepping into another way of life of mankind: factions and killing, the strong and the weak, the eternal theme . So when I saw that I couldn’t help but blurt out the word "scum" to Beecher-yes, EM is a concentration camp for scum. When I say this word, I can even bring a little damn. Admire the colors.
1. The main components of EM city:
The staff: Warden had to worry: his wife was separated, his daughter was raped, the governor was an asshole, and he was black; McManus, the founder of EM, who was labeled as idealistic, did not change Oz, but assimilated OZ Of course, don’t expect the prison guards to be merciful. Before she got on the gallows, Shirley, the woman on death row, said in front of Warden that the guard comrade next to him and I sang songs every night, and she got a silent “bitch” in return. This is OZ's style. It's not kind, and it's not nostalgic. The important guy can disappear in a few seconds. Don't expect a few words of discussion. Someone keeps dying, some keeps advancing, and the story goes on. Father and Sister are the only human colors, but Father Ray most of the time even plays the role of black humor in anticipation. Sister Pete also doubts his beliefs. Who has saved whom?
The inmates:
The Italies: I’m sure the screenwriter Fantana must have the malicious intent of mocking the classics. For example, the old burrowing gopher ridiculed all the burrowing and prison escape works that everyone knows; therefore, Italy, Sicily, gangsters, Godfather-very unlucky in OZ, except for the second person who burned to charcoal in the first episode, the boss of this person was bleed every day by pouring glass in seven orifices, and then a young boss (poor child) was killed by Adebisi. Rape’s mental breakdown was finally recovered and was raped by Aryan Neo-Nazis... Completely collapsed, an old man who looked Godfather took over and was given a shot of AIDS and was killed by himself in the Aids quarantine. However, the skinny camel Bigger than Marathon, the Italies gang, although the boss of the Italies gang has dedicated himself heroically, but the control of the drug is enough to make them one of the fixed EM giants.
The Brotherhood: The infamous Aryan Party + the popular motorcycle gang with tattoos. Vern Schilinger, our lawyer, is the source of most of the pain and depravity. All his pain (if any) comes from his own sins: if he doesn't force Beecher to death, the two mates will not be as deep as the sea. Fighting to the death of the whole family, an endless cycle; if he does not take advantage of O'Reily's mentally retarded brother (the word is very civilized), he will not be so hateful that he who does not face an enemy will tick his teeth when he has the opportunity to poke two. Knife. Nazi can crucify priests who sexually assault children alive, and he can also think that killing his own son is not a crime—please allow me to say that if everyone is a scum, this is the scum of scum.
The Musilims: Faith, what exactly is faith. Although Said advertises to fight for his compatriots, we can easily see his hypocrisy or not knowing it. Only when he is abandoned by the congregation does he seem to be truly awakened-in OZ, Said is naive, just like Beecher , They cannot get rid of the attraction of their self-righteous good, even if they are in the worst evil. Most of the time, Musilims are more like the OZ sub-rudder of a certain al-Qaeda organization, and there is always a brilliance of a crisis of faith. Said’s faith, Christ’s faith-faith is not light, not truth, God is praise to light and truth, what about Musilims?
The Homeboys: I admit that I hate Adebisi incomparably. If O'Reily is a scum, Schilinger is a beast, and Keller has a brain disease, Adebisi can be described as a tuo ×. The most primitive ugly, the most primitive shrewd. The drumbeats in my hometown are just crazier. Fantana continued to leave no hope. Wangler's short-term reading and education were useless. Adebisi's simple (?) paper talk ended with Shirley's phrase "But you are a nigro"; Poet was regarded as a typical prison education pardon less than one. Moon killed another person and came back-goodness is so inexplicable, even a little hope for goodness may just be a label of others' hypocrisy and politics.
Others: The Latinos, The Irish, The Gays, and others that cannot be classified.
2. Some people who are impressed
Beecher: Although his appearance is only a part of OZ, it is far from the evaluation of "starring", but his pain, sin and hope are tangible, because he does not belong to the world of OZ, but belongs to most of them. US. This servant is really the worst person in OZ. He was tattooed with the Nazi logo on his butt, was raped, was tortured by spirit, was broken his limbs, his wife committed suicide, his son had torn off his ticket, and his family had not died. So he went crazy from the beginning to the end. The calm madness. Let Schilinger not be released on bail, and staying in OZ is a retaliation within the standard, then killing the prison guards and killing his two children will no longer be alive. Beecher is a human being taught by society. He has experienced the most cruel torture and also cruelly tortured others. How about? Just like this OZ by Fantana, all the violence and sinisterness are naked in front of you, so what? "Life is precious", this is Beecher's summary after six years of OZ, and also the summary of human beings taught by all societies. Humans are always animals, but thank God, we still have reason. OZ does not know where the rainbow is, but what OZ believes in is not to experience wind and rain and never know whether there is a rainbow.
Keller: Speaking of Beecher, I must at least mention Keller. This person only appeared in the middle of the second season, and the shots were pitiful. A greasy southern nasal sound, the most thorough stripping is at the level of porn star (thanks to this servant, the OZ scale is enough to improve. It is said that although HBO never sells handsome men and women, OZ well implements the appearance and body are proportional to the degree of exposure The good principle of ~). Although many female compatriots are more concerned about the relationship between this person and Beecher classmates, and some go to OZ specifically for these two, but I really want to say that this guy is really sick in his head, translated into plain language, is a complete anti-social elite . Showed good to Beecher, waited until they gave bend out, and twisted his arms alive (saying that I have a very strong taste, I can’t help but feel a little tingling in my arms when I see it here), and one night I felt that I still loved my loved one’s decision. I still have to talk to others, and then stabbed Schilinger in reverse. In his free time, I still seduce Sister Pete, who is at least 55 years old. It seems that everyone has to discharge it... The guys related to Beecher basically killed all of them and finally jumped off the building. Suicide planted Beecher to accompany him to death—it was in the criminals, and his brain was not normal. He and Beecher, although it is unlucky for everyone to meet everyone, this kind of relationship will never happen outside of OZ. No one can be trusted, no one can rely on. If you want to establish the most conclusive relationship in OZ, like the O'Reily brothers, it is born with blood, then the necessary bond of this relationship is sex. This is not a human need, but The need to survive (well, I'm really talking about serious issues). Anyway, I still want to thank Keller's selfless dedication. After all, OZ is not very beautiful, even though it is evil that every prisoner must be stripped naked.
Ryan O'Reily: Without physical strength, I have to rely on my head. In terms of fighting, O'Reily seemed to be inferior to Peter Schibeta. He only used the Bible to bully the weak man with glasses or beat the prison guards to take advantage of the chaos in the riot. But this Irish (Long live the Irish Gang ~ well, the local complex, the local complex ~) has enough capital to despise all men in OZ who cannot guarantee the dignity of men or who have never been able to guarantee the dignity of men. Speaking of this guy, let’s not talk about persisting to the end. Just think about Beecher’s level of entry to OZ and snatch it away from Adebisi and Schilinger. According to the OZ standard, this guy, who is absolutely pretty, is completely useless by one person. People dared to beat his ass idea (except for the fierce female prison guard JJ, which is also an unknown creature...), not to mention the number of dozens of people who died directly and indirectly in his hands, and even people never kill people by themselves— Therefore, no matter how people value physical strength in primitive society, facts have proved that wise people will always survive. In the first few episodes of OZ, when I still had a glimmer of worldview and life outlook, I really wanted to strangle him-the typical definition of the so-called "scum", who knew that he would gradually become better and morally decayed, and long live the Irish helper. …O'Reily’s principle is that there is no principle, faith is no faith, make friends with anyone, greet everyone with a smile, and carry it out to the extreme, except that Dr. Nathan and his brother Cyril basically seem to have a relationship no matter how hard it is. Don't be killed by a knife in the back~~ (The scene where he and the Russian guy cooperate and calculate each other is really quite dark humorous). It’s just that the scum is still a scum after all. The act of "falling in love" with the female prison doctor is to let her mentally retarded brother kill her husband, admitting that she sent someone to rape her to kill a rapist by herself, and will never stop until she achieves her goal. My brain is not normal)-Such a guy who created a unique way of survival in OZ, "fucking good at survive", eventually converted to faith. The only brother Cyril was executed. Although such brotherhood was exaggerated without leaving a trace, the fact is that O'Reily's selfishness caused Cyril to be reimbursed for his entire life. In the end, he was still in OZ alone, imprisoned for life, life will still be so cruel, two-sided, survive, survive, the end of absolute violence is peace, and the end of absolute unbelief is probably faith.
Alonzo Torquemada: (After all, this comrade played about 10 minutes in total...) Why did you say that Torquemada didn’t talk about Miguel’s classmates? Well, this, it’s really because of Miguel (another guy in HBO’s famous drama "Brothers"). The three generations of co-prisons, who are not good at using force, are certainly not as good as O'Reily's classmates who have infinite fear of Solitary (solitary confinement). In the end, the more they live, the more regressive and the more miserable they live... And this last straw is Comrade Torquemada, once again, I couldn’t imagine that I’ve dug the prison guard’s eyes and stabbed people many times. Most of my life was spent in Solitary, but Miguel, who insisted on 55 episodes of independent personality, actually said "I'" in the last episode. "m tried" and surrendered before the total collapse. When Comrade Torquemada first appeared, I was shocked. Do you want OZ to follow the QAF route? Although this style I actually like bt~ And, it is basically in OZ. There is no presence on the gay gang who acts as a living setting. Since the Torquemada boss appeared, he brought the brand new D-Tabs and worked happily with Fancamo, the Sicilian gang, and captured Miguel, the Latin gang who can never die in a few words. I have a kind of gay gang who wants to turn over completely. Feeling in charge...
