"An Eagle"

"An Eagle" is the



same as many stories that describe human beings' crazy pursuit and fighting for wealth. The film also needs something symbolic, so this eagle came out!
Yes, it is a statue, an eagle made of gold studded with all kinds of precious jewels!
The story originated from the Crusaders of the Knights (Westerners love to talk about the Knights, because hundreds of years ago, they looted the Middle East, North Africa and other places and obtained countless rare treasures).


After that, one of the eagles that paid tribute to the King of Spain became exiled to the people because of pirates. After hundreds of years, it reappeared in antique shops in London!
When the eyes of a person who knows the goods are wide open, it will also cause killing, so the eyes are really dead! In the next 17 years, this eagle wandered in Europe again, and was held by a certain Russian general. The stealers continued to seize it, and finally succeeded!
However, the thief group itself had infighting, and the game of chasing finally set foot on the land of the United States!

So, the opening scene of the film was staged in a private detective office in San Francisco!
Of course, since it is a film made by Americans, the private American detectives of that era as an elite model are of course both civil and military, and they are not tempted by beauties!
Finally, all the criminals were handed over to the troubled police!

Is that an eagle? By the way, it finally appeared. When it was chased across the ocean, after the subject of the pursuit of life was placed on the table, it was finally discovered that it was not gold at all, but lead!
The backbone of the thief group couldn't help but sigh, the Russian made a trick!

Ha ha! This is mankind's crazy game of wealth. For decades, hundreds of years, and thousands of years, nothing has changed except for the things on the table!

    Everything is good, but I can't stand the chatter. I want to give it three and a half stars, but I can't come up with it.
