long time no dark war

Since "Infernal Affairs", I have never seen a police and gangster movie that can make me make a good case... It seems that I have lost my love, so - miss it.

I got to the classroom early that day, and I had nothing to do after thinking about it. I turned on the multimedia and wanted to watch the video. There is a man beside him who is going to watch a movie. Well, let's watch "Dark War"! (What kind of Korean drama did he want to watch, but he categorically rejected it! Feminine enough for you!)

After watching it for a while, a certain man asked: Why do you like watching this kind of movie?

I forgot how I answered it, I just know that I really like movies like this. Perhaps influenced by my father, I grew up in the environment of Hong Kong films since I was a child. I especially liked police and gangster films, and once considered being a Madam as my lofty ideal, but now... Hong Kong films have also gone downhill, and the ideal has also been seven. Twelve changed.

That day, I was sitting on the table in the classroom watching "Dark War". One after another, students came in and asked me with great interest: Amy, what movie? My answer: "Dark War".

"Oh, Andy is so handsome!"
"That's Liu Qingyun?"
"Yeah."
"How many years ago?"
"Well... I saw it a long time ago, probably before 2000."
"Wow... ...It's so early!"
...
... I

checked the Internet, "Dark War" was in 1999, I didn't expect it to be ten years so soon ... Andy won the first best actor with this film, he Said that this film made him start acting in another way. I believe this is true. Although so many people say that Andy is still an idol in this film, wouldn't it be unfair to say that Andy is still an idol, aside from Liu Qingyun, a powerful faction? (Especially the emotional scenes between Andy and Meng Jiahui, can they be idols?)

I'm not a fan of Andy, but after watching "Dark War" again, I fell in love with him again. In that small restaurant, he sat down with Meng Jiahui for the first time, but the illness was playing tricks on him. Meng Jiahui was stunned when she coughed up a mouthful of blood into the glass of water... "Sorry, I don't have time." Andy left. When he got up and left after saying this, I fell in love with him completely!

I have always admired director To Qifeng, who can always insert such delicate emotions into such a Man's play, without being cumbersome or pretentious. Hehe...I call it "cold romance" myself. This kind of "cold romance" won't be too much in Director Du's films, and it's all over, so there's no end to it... Whether it's good or bad, the characters become more cute because of it!

In the afternoon, the review of both "Dark War" is over, I can't bear... Is it a movie or time?
