The end is also the way home

I went to see it purely for Johnny, and I was never disappointed. No matter what kind of role, as long as Yi comes to play, people will always see Johnny-style so-and-so. This magical man perfectly unites melancholy sensitivity and masculinity. Every time people are surprised, how can there be such a neurotic and so appropriate and beneficial person?

The legendary life of a bank robber. Both the evil sense of crime and the tender face of an iron man are suitable for people like Johnny who are both righteous and evil. In every gesture, people often fall into the illusion that Yi is the legendary figure.

In fact, I don't like the whole movie very much. Both the action scenes and the subtle beautification of crime in the connotation are somewhat uncomfortable. The first half an hour was so distracting, but the second half an hour was really the essence, and people couldn't bear to blink their eyes.

After spending most of the time describing Johnny as a myth, as the ending approached, everything took a turn for the worse. Friends in need have died, people with interests betrayed one after another, but my beloved woman has fallen into the hands of the FBI, and is my time approaching?

At this almost desolate moment, when Yi sent people to the police station, he even entered the building where the Dag killing order was issued, and became a leisurely bystander. The scene of the movie slowed down instantly, the light was vivid and the music slowly, and the faint voices of people in the office in the building and the sound of typewriters could be heard. Johnny opened the door and went in.

Like a completely unrelated person, step by step into the lair of the wolf and tiger, but so cautious, obviously can't get rid of the involved party. I saw my information being posted on the display board, I saw my photo with a confident smile posted on the list of wanted criminals, and I watched all the people and things related to me being made public in detail. The tension of going deep into the enemy's hinterland and the complacency of escaping outside are mixed together, and they can hardly be concealed on Johnny's face. The most ruthless thing was that when he saw a group of officials gathered to listen to a baseball game radio program, Johnny asked casually about the score like a staff member of this building, and then calmly received a reply. This scene is really praiseworthy. The irony of the bureaucracy and the appreciation of self-experience reached its peak in contradiction and uniformity at this moment. As expected to be Johnny, the performance of this episode is superb, from expressions to movements and expressions.

And the scene in the cinema is also very good. The man caught in the movie went to death calmly, saying "Die the way you lived, all of a sudden, that's the way to go. Don't drag it out. Living like that doesn't mean a thing." Johnny's eyes glowed with sympathy.

How happy is life, and how fearful of death. I have lived a life of what I want and no regrets, so what is death? The ancients believed that the saddest thing in life is "the hero is at the end of life, and the beauty is late." But since it has been vigorous, even in the end, the dust will return to the dust and the soil will return to the earth, but it is just the end of the natural prosperity. What is there to be afraid of, and what is sad? Just as Zhang Zai wrote in "Xi Ming", "Save, I will do things; No, I will also". Only a few words, but lightly resolved the heaviness of such a major event of death and life. Only by seeing through in this way can we truly see the flowers blooming and falling.

Although it was the end, Johnny died like a hero with no loss of dignity. Even the person who killed him couldn't accept the fact that such an omnipotent thief suddenly fell down suddenly, and he didn't even dare to get close, and was stunned from a distance.

As an audience, I was also shocked by this calmness.

Also commendable is the final scene. The agent who killed Johnny took his last words to the jail to see Johnny's woman. He said, byebye, blackbird. I didn't say that I love you, and I didn't say that you live well, but said byebye lightly like that you can meet again anytime. He can even imagine the light smile on his face and the casual waving of his hands when he said these words, but he just turned the solemn farewell into a casual farewell. Affectionate is true, and so is free and easy. Moved to tears = =

Great and wise people are often like this. Regardless of the unbearable weight or the unbearable lightness in life, they will always treat it as ordinary things indifferently, without happiness or sorrow. , Accepting God's fate, and live in peace.
