When I saw it halfway through, I actually didn't understand why this movie got such a high score. When I saw that the male protagonist was going to kill himself after explaining everything for a young prostitute, he thought it might be about the issue of class: The presidential candidate who speaks tall and full of benevolence and morality does not care about an underage girl, but a girl who can dress up The handsome and dashing ex-Marine, after shattering the pursuit of a beautiful American dream, can sacrifice everything for this girl she never knew. Satire. I thought this was the whole plot, but it turned out to be a heartwarming ending. Of course, this ending is not like some countries are forced to change the ending because of the film censorship system, which must conform to the main theme of harmony. After experiencing the rebirth of Nirvana, the male protagonist who was so persistent, entangled, and paranoid actually laughed. The act of burning jade and stone that was suicidal turned him into a hero. The beauty who was originally pursued and could not get it, when she took the initiative to show her favor to the direction, she did not complain or attack, but smiled and said goodbye. Because he knows that classes cannot be crossed, and some things, although beautiful, will not belong to him after all. When you understand and recognize yourself, you will be like most people. After living your life in an ordinary way, you will truly face everything calmly.

    The biggest regret of 9.0 may be that the poster spoiled this shocking enough classic image. I don’t need to say more about De Niro’s acting skills. The most powerful part of the movie is that it captures the loneliness and confusion of young people after the Vietnam War, with herrmann’s saxophone soundtrack , an ethereal feeling came out. The protagonist strays from the dark corner of the city, and the audience enters the character inadvertently, feeling the unknowable future. The "salvation" at the end is not only satire, but also the brilliance of human nature that has never changed.
