"Imagine a man born without a heart. He's kind, he's upright, he's polite, but he just doesn't have that heart." (Conscance Fonimore Woolson)
To me, Miller's Crossing seems like an alternative version of chaos Casablanca. That's right, it's the 42-year war love story between Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. I don't know if it's because of that hat or something else.
Perhaps for more people to see this film is the gangster element, the black element, or the director's talent and the tension of the actors. For me, it's more about the love element. For me, this is a beautiful and pure love story.
There are not many rival scenes for the male and female protagonists, and there are a total of six games.
In the first scene, shortly after the beginning, the male protagonist went to the female protagonist's door and knocked gently on the door. The girl asked him what he was doing, and the boy said I wanted my hat back. The girl wanted to close the door, and the boy said, I want a drink. The girl let him in and said why she didn't answer like this at the beginning.
In the second scene, the male protagonist just ended an angry conversation with crisis and tension. The male protagonist walked into the ladies' lounge and told the others to go out, leaving only him and the female protagonist. The male protagonist questioned that the female protagonist was the murderer. The female protagonist said, I don't think you think so. The male protagonist asked, what am I, and the female protagonist said, I think you are just jealous. The male protagonist kisses the female protagonist. The heroine pushes him away and says, I think you're from hell, and the hero says I'll let you know if I'm from hell. Finish.
The third scene is still outside the door of the female lead. The male lead knocks on the door, the female lead closes the door, the male lead forcibly enters, the female lead dials the number for help, the male lead takes the phone and has a brief conversation with the other side, and then for his previous Behavioral apology and so on. The hero and heroine reconcile, and the heroine plans the two to escape, but they know each other clearly that nothing is possible.
In the fourth scene, the male protagonist suggested that the female protagonist had better leave. Afterwards, the heroine is threatened by bad guys.
In the fifth scene, the two walked in the rain. The heroine listened to the slander that the hero killed her brother. The lens is like Casablanca, in the rain, dim, sad, the lights in the distance, and the hero and heroine are just very close, but never fit the perfect ambiguous distance. It's just that this heroine has a gun in her hand.
---- "Nobody cares, his friends don't really like him"
---- "He doesn't like his friends either"
---- "Did you kill him?"
---- "I I can only tell you that he is still alive"
----"Do you want me to believe you"
----"No"
Finally, the heroine said "Enough, it's over, it's all lies" and left, here, I'm not sure Does it refer to this hatred, or only the male and female protagonists, and then the male protagonist is left alone and can't see the true emotions.
In the sixth scene, the hero learns that the heroine is going to marry another man, and the two have no eyes or conversation with each other.
At the end, the
male protagonist may be full of a sense of justice and mission in the play, of course not the conventional one. But the positive role in such a film is undisputed. But when I saw the heroine crying in the rain, I was still heartbroken and puzzled why boys couldn't tell girls the truth. In this way, at least, it will not cause the disintegration of the relationship between the two.
Until the latter scene, the heroine's brother, who was let go, found the hero again, still threatening him with what he was always unwilling to do. The male protagonist took out his gun, and the elder brother was shocked, knelt down and shouted, ask your heart, ask your heart. The male protagonist raised his gun and killed his brother after "what heart".
It turned out to be here, the man without a heart.
-------------------------------------------------
Original I have a friend who can talk about movies and things on my mind. Once he let me listen to a song called Miss Riddle. I was surprised and asked him if it was your real thoughts or just a song. After that I let him listen to a song called I cant tell you why. I don't know if he heard it or not.
After that, we kept estranged until he completely left Weibo and my life.
When he left, he said, "I'm like this to everyone, I don't get in touch often, I don't take the initiative to contact you, it turns out that you are in a special position for me, I would like to talk to you every night, and now you are no longer, No one is yet.
I wonder what I did to put me in the so-called "special position", and I don't know why I am "no longer", maybe he just chose friends, ambiguous or addicted objects out of his imagination or boredom. Ego and need to choose tenderness, indifference and complete departure. I don't even know why he insisted that "no one is", there's no need to tell me, right? I've never had to take someone's special place, and I've said, I want him to be happy, and it's all sincerity. The closest distance I can accept is such a safe distance from friends. So I'm just replying, and I can only bless you -- after all, you've been yourself for so long, so please don't make any changes. I wish you happiness, I wish you happiness, I wish you all the best.
We didn't make any contact after that, but I can't deny that that person still hurt me for so long that I can't let it go.
Maybe I'm not suitable for any friends at all, as I told him at the beginning, I don't have any kind of intimacy. This reminds him that everything is impossible.
Miss Riddle, I don't deny that's who I am, but I can't call myself that either. Just listen to his accusations, and I always thought that I am a person without a heart, but you not sure, you have no idea, until you really meet a person without a heart, you will be able to appreciate your broken heart . That's all right. Doesn't matter.
Since as you've been a jerk for a long time,
You know what you are and you absolutely right.
So just keep that and dont change your mind.
I hope you happy, I hope you fun.
Enjoy every single time as possible as you can.
The man without a heart, I wish you all the best, the last song, I wish you love.
Although, I don't love you, even though, I can't love you. Although, I don't want to, and can't, love anyone. Even if that person is you, especially, this kind of you.
2015.05.09.
I'm DONE.
