professionals in hell

I watched "The American" twice and really liked it. First of all, the picture of the film is very beautiful, the Italian town is picturesque, and the dialogue in the film is not much. The camera and the body movements of the actors are used to demonstrate the inner activities of the characters in the story.
When we mention professionals, for example, respectable professions such as surgeons, architectural designers, etc., come to mind, and the protagonist of the movie is also a professional. He is a gunsmith who specially tailors killing tools for killers. His profession requires him to be alone, facing the threat of death at any time, lacking in the maintenance of human feelings, and falling into fear and bloody memories at night. He is tired of such a life, but he still has an accident at the last order!
The priest in the film is still very interesting. He is the hero's soul savior. He concluded that Jack was living in hell. He seemed to say, "I have a heart that loves my children and obeys the Lord. What do you have?" A knock hit Jack's door.
This is a good movie that needs to be carefully savored, and it is very memorable after watching it.

    The director is a photographer, the film has a strong sense of picture, the color is dull and beautiful, the plot is soothing and attractive, and the small emotions are well managed. Compared to "In the Clouds", I prefer this Clooney.

The American quotes

  • Father Benedetto: Of course... You're American. You think you can escape history. You live for the present.

    Jack: I try to, Father.

  • Father Benedetto: All the sheep in my flock are dear to me. But some are dear the most. Especially those that have lost their way.
