Michael Scofiled, the hero full of personal heroism, is obviously a character that the screenwriter focuses on portraying. His calmness, persistence, courage, guts, wisdom, strategy... is bound to win the pursuit and infatuation of countless audiences, but in reality In life, I think, such a combination of characters does not exist. His childhood experiences can partly explain his paranoia - desperately trying to rescue his brother who was sentenced to death was not only more difficult than most people could imagine, but it was not the result of his previous 9-to-5 white-collar life. The experience provided can support it. The well-educated and gentle man, after entering the savage and terrifying male prison, quickly mingled with all kinds of people around him and found his comrades and supporters. Although this was because of his careful planning before, he had enough information, but There is a sharp contrast between the gentleness and kindness in his nature and the deep scheming he showed after being imprisoned. Even how the screenwriter supplements the explanation with various details, it still makes people feel that the male lead character is unique and unreal. But we are willing to believe that there is such a person, who combines a high degree of wisdom, courage and various survival skills, and at the same time can quickly adapt to the environment. Such a complex person is more terrifying than all the prisoners in the fox river. He alone can subvert the entire prison, disintegrate the long-established forces, and make the perverted killer T-bag and the gang leader John Abruzzi. Submit to him, obediently be part of his plan. Is this ability innate? Or forced by the situation?
In contrast, Lincoln Burrows, the scumbag brother who has debuted for many years, basically did nothing except for the initial despair, innocence, anger, and the plan to follow Michael all the way. Maybe he's incapable of making a difference, maybe he's intrepid, but I find it odd that a death row inmate doesn't have the slightest insight in someone else's plan to rescue him. The stupid things he did on the way to escape include throwing himself into the net to save LJ, at this time MONEY is almost at hand. The younger brother abandoned everything for himself, and he left as soon as he said it, even for the sake of his son (who knew it was a bait), he couldn't be so unorganized and undisciplined.
As for the emotional line between Michael and Sara, it is even more nonsensical. After reading the whole article, think about it calmly. In the first season, Sara's role was purely for "staying the door". In order to portray the hero's struggle in prison, he doesn't pay much attention to the things that are loved by children, so it seems a bit abrupt. Just imagine, even if there is such a prisoner, who looks a little more handsome and speaks a little differently from ordinary prisoners, a lonely single female doctor who usually only contacts with prisoners may indeed have some strange thoughts about him. However, in such an environment, the contact time with each other was relatively short, and Michael still planned such an earth-shattering action, and he could not make a mistake. In the sinister environment where he was walking on thin ice and being plotted at any time, he still had his mind. Flirting with a female doctor? Therefore, at least in the first season, Michael was not tempted at all, purely to take advantage of Sara. Sara is also really, in order to have a hazy and illusory relationship with a prisoner, he even lost his head and did something that went against his professional standards. Serious dereliction of duty, and by the time the incident happened, she should have understood that others were really taking advantage of her, a lonely single woman, a romantic relationship failed, so she attempted suicide. Because of Michael's kind nature, he was full of guilt towards the female doctor after the incident. That's okay, in the second season, he was still using various encryption methods to contact Sara on the escape route, Even if he is very confident in Sara's IQ, I don't think the two of them have reached such a tacit understanding before. Why did you take advantage of me, fly away, ruin my life, and then decide my future life? Michael is a seemingly charming man, but in real life he's probably the guy who keeps making his own way and ignores women's feelings at all. From the day he was imprisoned, he decided that Sara's life would never return to its previous normal and peaceful state. Sara's "staying the door" was more of justice, because she realized that there was something suspicious in Lincoln's case; but this action determined that he and she would go to the end of their lives together in the future? Who in real life would give up everything for an indeterminate relationship? There are too many questions to be answered, Sara's attitude in season 2 shows her feelings for Michael, but I think it's because she's caught in a conspiracy to kill and she has nowhere to go, and now she feels that only Michael has the potential to take her Fly away and end it all. And Michael, regardless of morality, responsibility, guilt, or feelings, is obliged to take Sara with him, whether he goes to Panama or flees all the way, it's hard to say how much love is at this time. What is certain is that the common Fate bound them together.
Kellerman is actually a very dedicated person. Everything he does is to protect the female president. For this reason, he has done a lot of bad things, but he does not think he is a bad person. In his career, killing has nothing to do with morality, and all effective means are desirable. Maybe because of the limitation of his career, he always sees problems from a narrow angle. In his world view and values, he only needs to be responsible for one person, that is, the female president. He is just doing his own job. Therefore, when the female president abandons the loyal him, his instinctive reaction is revenge, which, again, has nothing to do with morality. This is a desperate man. There should be a lot more to this character in the second season.
In addition, various prison figures, including the warden and prison guards, are actually representative. On the contrary, these characters are closer to reality, because the characters given to them by the screenwriter are very typical, there are perverted rapists, gang bosses, thieves with unshakable conscience, robbers who are confused for a while, and lovers who are desperate for love. St. Without the wonderful performances of each of these people, the storyline surrounding the male lead would be much more bizarre.
"Prison Break" continues to be staged, and the final outcome of this story, in fact, everyone knows: no matter how much the screenwriter has to toss the audience, no matter how long the screenwriter has to toss the audience, justice will definitely triumph over evil - no matter how much this victory comes It's tragic and difficult, and lovers get married eventually - no matter how many relatives and friends die, life will go on - on and off screen.
