the strength of persistence

An already excellent story + Angie's excellent acting + the director's unique shooting method, it was late at night after watching the movie, but I couldn't calm down for a long time. In the end, the Collins mother and son were not able to reunite in the end. This regret is the best ending in my opinion.

Director Clint really made my eyes shine. In the past, his image of a western cowboy was deeply rooted, but now he can make such a delicate and profound documentary-like film. Many of his films are dedicated to focusing on child abduction and sexual assault. He also strongly advocated the death penalty.

This movie is based on real events, and it is estimated that the real events happened when the director Clint was a child. I was moved by the dedication of the director and screenwriter to explore the power of human nature in history.


There are all kinds of power in this movie, the power of mother's love, the power of rights, the power of belief, and the most precious thing is the power of persistence.

Without perseverance, the truth of that sin will never be known; without perseverance, the surviving boy will not be discovered; without perseverance, the bill will not be amended, and good will not triumph over evil.

    The big problems caused by small people are one of my favorite types of words. The rhythm of the first half of the film can be described as turbulent. It is almost non-confrontational to resist the social system from a personal point of view. It is inevitable for individuals to act around their own existence value. Being involved in the whirlpool of interests centered on social power, we still cannot ignore the force majeure of challenging authority. After the beautification, behind all the harmony is unknown, women and children are still the weak circle

    Walter Collins disappeared on March 10, 1928, on his way to the cinema. The disappearance of the little boy has drawn national attention. Los Angeles police launched a massive search operation that was unsuccessful. The reputation of the police department has plummeted, and more and more people are putting pressure on the police department to resolve the incident as soon as possible. Until five months after Walter disappeared, a boy calling himself Walter appeared in public view.
