Therefore, the array of doubts, the voice dazzles, the ingenious workmanship, the broken jade surging in the dark.
Noah clashed with his son-in-law Murray over the dam and killed Murray and moved his body in his back garden. Prior to this, Noah also asked a strange woman to impersonate her daughter Evelyn, and ordered the private detective Jack to investigate Murray who had an extramarital affair. Murray's extramarital affairs is the 28-year-old Noah's "granddaughter" Catherine, who was born to his raped daughter Evelyn. Suspicion of love and political conspiracy go hand in hand.
Murray actually had no affair with Catherine, he had always protected Evelyn's mother and daughter. If the dark world has no value to rely on, then Murray is an image of a loving and responsible protector. And Noah's desires continued to expand as Catherine grew up day by day, looking for her daughter/granddaughter in the name of extramarital affairs.
Corruption, irrationality, absurdity, haze. Noah is just a heinous image of rape of an underage girl. What's incredible about him lies in his powerful driving force and ambition for political goals. As a scumbag in the civilized world, he did not have the slightest conscience and awakening of humanity, and he could only rely on the primitive attributes to outline the world he controlled.
The private detective Jack is different from the image of a police detective in previous film noirs. He is energetic, vulgar, and impatient, but he is very alert and cunning when investigating the case. 他真正的目的是为了保护爱人伊芙琳不受伤害，虽则用情甚深，但是和其他黑色电影的硬汉派侦探相比毕竟窝囊了许多，而且三番两次挨揍，只是观众体验文明废墟The leader of the corrupted hearts of the people above. His image is undoubtedly weakened. In the end Jack was taken away by the police officer, but Noah was in peace. Evelyn was shot and killed by the police officer. Social life was in a chaotic and sluggish state-a state of faltering and collapse in an instant. It is also a wonderful expression of Roman Polanski's sense of despair and sorrow.
The investigation involves not only the trade-off of opportunity, but also a test of the hearts and minds of people on the verge of collapse. The cliffs on the slope of desperation are desolate, depressed and unwilling, depressed and desperate, justice cannot be done, reason cannot resonate, it is the total amount of everything that has created the shattered jade of ingenious art. If Jack’s investigation is the main line of the movie, then the entanglement of Noah and Evelyn constitutes the side line of the narrative. The whole film adds a bit of breathtaking sound interweaving in addition to the non-linear narrative.
The dream of a heroic beauty has been shattered, and what is presented before our eyes is the unbearable and obscene dark world. The whole story is very powerful and natural, intertwined into a series of miserable and terrible cryptic pictures. Noah's selfishness has always been closely related to his dream of the peak of the future, and Evelyn always wanted to protect her daughter, but never thought that her husband was killed by his cruel father, Jack's voice was slow and indulgent. It is a pity that the features eventually confuse with the messy and dying. Roman Polanski uses this kind of film noir method to construct his own humanistic audio-visual effect. This is a huge production and a mourning work of spiritual history, just like the gunshots Jack heard last and Catherine’s sorrow. The horrible roar was the same as the sad eyes that couldn't calm down.
