Shame on the Road

The movie "Flawless" begins with an interview with a female reporter, like the beginning of "Titanic." The dialogue between the female reporter and the heroine is full of generation gaps. The female reporter seems to be born in the 1990s, lively and playful, while the heroine has experienced the world and has a face of vicissitudes. The theme of the film is revenge, but it is also interspersed with memories of the rise of feminism in the 1960s. The director expresses his special insight into the society without being ostentatious. A good director is no less than a sociologist, so that the stories he tells reflect an era. Such as "The Godfather", "Once Upon a Time in America", "Gone with the Wind", these works reveal the characteristics of the times. Seeing it is like being there. The advantage of watching movies is that you can constantly enrich your imagination and experience life in different time and space with the protagonists on the screen.

The hero in "Flawless" is an old janitor who is about to retire. The greed of an insurance company executive causes his wife to delay treatment and die of illness, so he joins forces with the outcast heroine for revenge. The conception is exquisite, and the ups and downs of watching it are addicting. The master is in the private sector, and a cleaner wants to avenge his beloved wife, sweeping the elites of society, company executives, capitalists, and detectives, all in his calculations. The beauty of the story is that it is unexpected, such as the sweeping monk written by Jin Yong is also impressive. In contrast, "The Shawshank Redemption" is about the revenge of the elite. When the banker is behind bars, he designs to bring the warden to justice, and the successful escape is extremely inspirational.

"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years", this is an old Chinese saying, and the world still holds true. Alexandre Dumas' "The Story of Monte Cristo" is a model of Western revenge literature. Offend the villain, "Uncle Li is very angry, the consequences are very serious"; offend the gentleman, "blood splashes five steps". Likewise, offending the king may lead to the destruction of the country. For example, King Goujian of Yue, "three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu"; for example, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, "kill Qin and Chu"; like Genghis Khan, he destroyed the Xixia Kingdom in one rage;
