But angles were man Thomas

As long as there are films with a dark atmosphere, the city and life on the screen seem to be more authentic than their own. After all, student life is soaked in disinfectant water, and the monthly payment is handed to the streets to let the wind out. It is nothing more than a beautiful and civilian place. Passers-by (because they are passers-by) are kind and lovely, even if there is no sun, the world is white powder, friendly to body and mind, neither will they be dazzled by the glittering golden light of material desires, nor will they be frightened by naked human desires.
Thanks to Neil Jordan, Xiaomin was fortunate enough to have a glimpse of some of London's best-sellers: the West end Hotel, the Royal Albion Hotel in Brighton... the prostitutes wandering around King's Cross at midnight, the Piccadilly Circus (known as meat) more than two decades ago. rack) and soho. Of course, the protagonist George is a former rogue whose quality is not as good as mine. Seeing him being treated coldly by a hotel waiter who uses "clothes" to get people, he immediately feels the same feeling of being a downtrodden person. Simon, who hired him as a driver and an emergency escort, couldn't stand it any longer. He gave him money to buy clothes. As soon as he turned around a floral shirt and an orange leather jacket, he looked like a pimp. fishnet tight, with 'prostitution' written on your face."
The dialogue is still the British guy who always takes humor as his meal. Sometimes I feel that British men are very sharp to women, they sharpen their mouths to speak, leave no room, eat low and don't care (I'm cheap, I can't help it, God make me that way), but gentleman turns out to be upper class , If you have wealth and status, you need to put on a show. In the film, George also made outrageous remarks to Simon at first, and then became emotional and wet his eyes for the pain she suffered (but the number of times was a bit more), risking his life to save his rival, and finally gave the British man extra points.
A few scenes (elevator in distress, pretending to be a sincere marriage proposal on the porch of the Royal Albion Hotel) are well-structured, and the camera scheduling closely follows the protagonist's actions, which is very dynamic, although there are many failures. But the overall plot is still a little weak. The excavation of Simon's prostitute career and its dark inside story is not in place. In the end, it turns out that S&M and homosexuality (the synonym of "violence" that was taken for granted in the 1980s) at the bottom of the box is too simple and not like the truth. Like a gimmick, it gives a superficial feeling. In addition to Bob Hoskins' super-level acting skills - at most, with his mystery novel fanfare Thomas, the other actors are not worth watching, and even the general level of British actors is not enough, which I am very puzzled.
All in all, the process of watching is very engaging and enjoyable. People who like British drama film should not miss it.
