headless rider

The male protagonist Johnny Depp still has a cold and white face in this film. At first glance, he thinks of Edward Scissorhands, which is different from the now eccentric Captain Jack.
The heroine Christina Ricci has a child-like face but a woman's body, which is really strange to look at. It reminds me of the girl with a grown-up face and a child's body in "Visit the Vampire". There is also the girl with a childish face in "Indulge in the Four Seas", which is also her. The male protagonist in "The Four Seas" is a gypsy, also played by Johnny Depp. The two have worked together twice, and I really like it. My favorite Johnny Depp said in the play: Here are my children younger than me, and my parents who are older than me. He can't go to America with her, he has a responsibility to his family. It was really sad to see. I can't see him unhappy, even in the movies.
The film "Sleepy Hollow" is actually quite terrifying. But when I watched it, I couldn't help but laugh. The male protagonist is a very timid man. When he saw a spider, he jumped on the stool and shouted "Kill it to death!" Second-rate. It is difficult for him to have a scientific and realistic spirit and diligently explore the truth of the case. And those weird reconnaissance tools, I don't know how he invented and made them.
The story tells that in 1799, in a place called Sleeping Hollow on the outskirts of New York City, four people died in a row, and the policeman played by Johnny Depp was ordered to investigate. He didn't believe in supernatural things at first, and then he saw the headless horseman slashing left and right on his horse, and he couldn't help but believe it. Under the guidance of the witch in the forest, he finds the tree cave where the unknown knight was buried 20 years ago, which contains the heads of people who have died recently. He suspects that the heroine is manipulating the Headless Horseman with witchcraft in order to get the inheritance of the rich man in the village. But when he left firmly, he found that the strange pattern drawn by the girl was to protect the one he loved, so he returned to the village, rescued her from the girl's stepmother and the headless horseman, and let the headless horseman get his back. head, so that he can rest in peace. The girl's stepmother was brought back to the tree cave by the Headless Horseman to die. He also took the girl back to New York to celebrate New Year's Eve 1800.
The story is nice, but a little bloody. But after watching this film after watching "Pirates of the Caribbean", I couldn't help laughing, which also diluted the bloody atmosphere.
The movie is the usual Tim Burton gothic movie, with dark pictures, weird plots, everyone is weird, and everyone seems to have an unspeakable secret. But Christina Ricci's blond hair warmed up the color, and her beautiful silk dresses. In a rural village in a remote valley, the people inside are dressed like medieval European palaces. Men wear white curly wigs, and women wear long Victorian dresses. How can they work?
Johnny Depp's clean face is really handsome.

    The best way to describe it is mediocrity. Of course, this term doesn't apply to Depp, never. The little heroine is like Xu Ruoxuan, with a cute baby face. However, after a few years, Todd's Depp has become so old that his face is still pink. No trace of the years was willing to leave him. The movie is average, noncommittal, and I don’t even know which category he should be classified into.

Sleepy Hollow quotes

  • The Burgomaster: Constable Crane! This is a song we have heard from you more than once. Now, there are two courses open to me. The first, is to let you cool your heels in the cells until you learn respect for the dignity of my office...

    Ichabod Crane: I beg pardon. But why am I the only one who can see that to solve crimes, we must use our brains, assisted by reason, using up-to-date scientific techniques?

    The Burgomaster: Which brings me to the second course. There is a town, two days journey to the north in the Hudson Highlands. It is a place called Sleepy Hollow. Have you heard of it?

    Ichabod Crane: I have not.

    The Burgomaster: An isolated farming community, mainly Dutch. Three persons have been murdered there, all within a fortnight. Each one found with the head lopped off.

    Ichabod Crane: Lopped off?

    The Burgomaster: Clean as dandelion heads, apparently. You will take these experimentations of yours to Sleepy Hollow, and there you will detect the murderer. Bring him here to face our good justice. Will you do this?

    Ichabod Crane: I will.

    The Burgomaster: Remember, it is you, Ichabod Crane, who is now put to the test.

  • Katrina Anne Van Tassel: Will you take nothing from Sleepy Hollow that was worth the coming here?

    Ichabod Crane: No. No, not nothing.

    [pauses]

    Ichabod Crane: A kiss, from a lovely young woman, before she saw my face or knew my name.

    Katrina Anne Van Tassel: Yes, without sense or reason.
