With the postponement of "Black Widow", the schedule of many Marvel movies has been adjusted accordingly.
The magical year 2020 has become the first year in a decade that no new Marvel Cinematic Universe films are released .
The sudden shortage of films made people feel unprepared.
However, they are also engaged in movies, and the situation on Netflix seems to be much better than that of Disney.
Some time ago, I found the idle Spider-Man and the Winter Soldier, as well as the new Batman , and made a big production "Land Forsaken" .
Recently, Da Chao and Xiao 11 were invited to stage a sex-turned version of "Holmes" and "Miss Sherlock" .
The co-authors of Chaoying who have nothing to do because of the epidemic have all been taken over by Netflix.
However, the film I want to talk about today is completely different from the previous ones.
It doesn't have any famous movie stars, and it doesn't have any amazing VFX techniques and gimmicks.
It 's still a very niche Argentine movie, suspense genre .
But friends who often watch Netflix all know that Netflix's suspense dramas in small languages can all be conferred gods.
This one is no exception.
No gore scenes, no horror scenes.
But its story can make you feel terrified and unfinished.
A sentence in the last ten minutes of the film, reversing the whole film.
Let this unremarkable movie go straight to five stars!
It is the new one released by Netflix in August——
bound offense
family crimes
The film is based on true events.
The scene from the very beginning of the film captures the hearts of the audience.
A dark, deep, narrow corridor, dimly lit.
Figures swayed in the bathroom at the end of the corridor, and after a while, the door was opened.
A blood-colored woman walked out of the bathroom cautiously, and there was a faint trace of blood behind the door.
These dissonant factors all make one wonder, what is going on behind the door?
The film features two female protagonists.
One of them is the heroine of the movie, middle-class wife Alicia.
After retirement, she lived a very smooth life.
Not only does he live in a big house, but he also often gets together with his best friends for afternoon tea and yoga classes.
The only thing that worries her is her son Daniel.
This son can be said to be unsatisfactory to the extreme.
I don't have a job, I still take drugs, and I do nothing at home all day long.
But Alicia is very doting on her son, almost responsive.
No, today she received another call from her son from the correctional center.
Daniel, was arrested.
The reason is that he was charged with trespassing, carrying a firearm without a license, and sexually assaulting a woman.
And it was none other than his wife, Marcela, who was accusing him.
This isn't the first time Masila has sued Daniel.
Before that, she had sued Daniel many times, but this time Daniel was arrested for some unknown reason.
This has never happened before.
In court, Daniel told the "truth".
He tearfully sued his wife, accusing him of 23 false charges.
After they separated, Masila had not let him see her biological son, Martin, for more than a year, and every time he asked, she was turned down.
When the two were together, Masila cheated on her colleague and gave him a green hat.
And when his career was at a low point, Masila not only did not support him to cheer up, but instead mocked him for his incompetence, beat him, gave him drugs, and even sold him drugs.
Whenever he wanted to start over, Masila would give him more drugs.
Eventually, he became an addict without a job.
In his mouth, his wife Masila is a "poisonous woman" who dragged him into hell in a cruel way.
And his mother Alicia always believed in her son, believing that Masila made her son have no future.
In order to exonerate her son, she will use any means at all costs.
But Alicia never thought that if Daniel was telling the truth, why was he the one who was eventually arrested?
Sure enough, Masila's confession gave a completely different version.
There was only one person who suffered from domestic violence, drug use, and not working from beginning to end, and that was Daniel.
After the company went bankrupt, he was idle and reluctant to work.
The burden of the family forced Masila, who had just given birth, to go out to work.
She worked three jobs by herself, working 14 hours a day, and had to take care of her children when she got home.
At this time, Daniel not only did not help, but also became addicted to drugs and spent money like crazy.
The side effects of the drugs made him always fantasize about Marcela and his colleagues cheating on him, so he often beat his wife and son.
In order not to be beaten, Masila bought Daniel drugs to escape everything, but he didn't expect him to get even worse.
Until one day, he locked her and her son in the house, took out a knife, and threatened her to kill them before committing suicide.
Only then did Masila realize that she might not be able to walk out alive.
She took advantage of her unpreparedness to jump out of the window with her son in her arms, but did not expect that Daniel was still haunted, frequently found their place of residence, and threatened many times.
She also sought legal protection, called the police and charged him 23 times, but nothing worked.
In the end, she was stabbed by Daniel, who was finally sentenced to two years in prison.
This time, when he was still on probation, he came to the door again and raped her, which is why he was arrested.
The case is complicated and confusing, and the two sides hold their own opinions. It is still unclear who said the truth.
Another bizarre case happens at Alicia's home.
Her maid, Grati, is another heroine in the film.
She murdered her newborn child in the bathroom and was charged with "murder of a close relative".
Why would a mother choose to do this?
When the psychiatrist opened the shackles of Grati, we only saw the truth about the case.
Glatty came from a very poor family, she did not go to school, and her brain development was somewhat delayed.
After her father's remarriage, Grati's status at home was like that of a maid. She did laundry, cooking, and cleaning, and she did all the housework alone.
Neighbors couldn't stand it anymore, so they sent her to the city to work as a live-in maid.
It can be said that Alicia gave her a home.
In Grati's eyes, Alicia is gentle and kind.
Because before that, Grati also had an accidental pregnancy . The father of the child was a young man in the community. After learning the news of Grati's pregnancy, he disappeared.
Grati didn't know what to do, and it was Alicia who took her to the doctor, gave birth, helped her raise her children, and sent them to school.
Alicia was as good to this child as she was to her own.
But the prosecution believed that Alicia had hinted to Grati that there was no room for a second child in the family, which indirectly led Grati to make the decision to kill the infant.
Alicia is angry, but she can't do anything about Grati's case, she thinks she has done her best.
She can't save Grati, but she can save her own son.
Alicia asked her husband to hire a barrister to defend her son, but her husband refused.
The husband believes that the son should confess and that he should pay the price for what he did.
Alicia couldn't bear it, she firmly believed that her son was "not guilty".
So, she went to a well-known barrister alone.
The eye-catching barrister told her that as long as he gave the full $400,000, he could get the conclusive DNA test evidence, so that the woman could not sue.
$400,000 is not a small sum for their middle-class family, either.
Eventually, she broke up with her husband, who moved out.
And she sold her big house, moved into a cramped little apartment, and bought the so-called conclusive evidence.
Clearly in the heart of the maid Grati, Alicia was gentle, kind, and powerful, but when facing her son, she seemed so selfish and mean, refined and egoistic.
She didn't want to understand the truth of what Masila said. She blindly believed in her son, but she never thought that by doing so, she was pushing another woman into the abyss.
With no conclusive evidence, Daniel was released shortly after.
The maid, Grati, was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 18 years in prison.
The guilty man was acquitted and the guilty woman was sentenced to 18 years in prison.
This ending is really unsatisfactory.
So, in the last ten minutes of the movie, the crazy reversal began.
The maid's words finally made Alicia wake up.
No spoilers here, but I believe many smart friends can guess the truth.
In fact, "Crimes of Restraint" is a realistic film focusing on the female psychology of sexual violence against women and infanticide.
In this film, the "infant killing" and "rape", the two cases are intertwined, seemingly unrelated, but in fact closely linked.
The director used a lot of montages and episodes to make the film's sense of suspense and rhythm just right.
There is no violent scene in the film, but in the character's narration, drug use, domestic violence, infanticide... Every element of this is so bloody, it doesn't make people feel bland at all, but it can't help but give birth. A feeling of contemplation.
By telling the tragic experiences of three women, the film explores the various problems faced by women of different ages and classes in society.
Marcela, the daughter-in-law who was abused by the family, Grati, the maid who was abused by her father, and the heroine Alicia, although they are in different social classes and have completely different life experiences, their lives are full of the same pain. .
And the heroine Alicia can be said to be the most complex and fullest image created in the whole film.
The audience has been following her point of view, peeling the cocoon and discovering the truth step by step.
From doting on his son and paying blindly from the beginning, to finally recognizing the truth and examining himself, he made the only correct choice.
In the last ten minutes, the emotional connection of the case broke out, and all the foreshadowings were revealed at this moment , and Alicia also completed her "transformation" in it.
The title of the film, "The Crime of Restraint", is very intriguing.
Before watching a movie, you wonder, how can you commit a crime when you are restrained?
After watching the movie, you will realize that if love is not restrained, isn't it a crime!
