The sad American dream

Monserrat 2022-02-21 08:01:08

This is an illusory and real American dream. The sisters from Poland who had the American dream were forced to separate. Sister Ava was rescued by Bruno of the prostitution organization, but had to become a prostitute and a stray warbler. Such a humble life is not a lot of roads before these new immigrants. The appearance of Bruno's magician cousin brought Ava's hope, but it was a pity that the fireworks were cold and unpredictable. The entangled love and hatred of the three people, how to decide in that long time, in the timeless paintings of oil paintings, the joys and sorrows are slowly staged.

The plot, photography, art director, and soundtrack all exude a thick and charming atmosphere of the age, and the pale yellow pictures put an epic color on the past in that desolate age. Although it is too hasty in narrative, it is impeccable in art.

    7.1 Generally speaking, it is a story about redemption. In fact, the real focus is on the pimp played by Jacques. Ma Liang's role in the script is far worse than Jacques, although they both acted well. The instability of the character's center of gravity is also reflected in the narrative. There are many themes involved but no deep digging. Only at the end, the theme of salvation is less convincing.

  • [last lines]

    Bruno Weiss: If you could lick my heart, you'd taste nothing but poison. See, you think there's goodness in everybody, but there isn't. So you go and you forget about me, and you forget about this place. And you forget about those things that I made you do! Because I took everything from you and I gave you nothing! Nothing. 'Cause I'm nothing.

    Ewa Cybulska: [hugs him] You are not nothing.

  • Bruno Weiss: [does a step dance] I used to dance on the street as a kid for money. We fastened tin onto our shoes. Things you do to survive...
