We often say that people's hearts are not enough for snakes to swallow elephants, people's greed is indeed bottomless, people know their faces and do not know their hearts, people always wear masks, and deceive others with hypocritical appearances, so as to get what they want.
The film I'm going to share with you today illustrates this problem, where the unscrupulous poor boy kills his rich second-generation friends out of jealousy and lives a rich life instead, and also takes his fiancée for himself.
This movie is a Douban high-scoring classic suspense crime film - "Angry Sea Sinking Corpse"!
Released in 1960, 60 years ago, "The Dead Body of the Angry Sea" is a full-fledged movie that has received a high score of 8.1 on Douban!
The film is based on Highsmith's novel Genius Ripley, and the title has changed.
Underneath this movie, it is full of praise for the male protagonist's appearance in the movie:
I personally think that the appearance of the film is quite high, just like the audience said, the overall is too handsome.
The director is René Clement, who has won many awards such as the Palme d'Or and the Golden Lion for his classic films such as "The Hague" and "Forbidden Game".
The quality of the previous Palme d'Or and Golden Lion Awards was much higher and more demanding than they are now, so it was already great to win these awards.
Although "The Dead In the Angry Sea" did not win any awards, the rating given by the audience is also a recognition of the quality of the film.
The protagonist of the movie is also very worth mentioning!
The male protagonist consists of the famous beautiful man Aaron. Played by DeLong, he won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Cannes Film Festival and also won the Golden Bear Platinum and Golden Globe Awards.
His award-winning works are not many, but he became the most popular French actor in the 60s and 70s, and for Chinese mainland audiences, the works that impressed him should be "The Legend of Zorro" and "Black Tulip".
He was not really an actor at the beginning, he became a soldier at the age of 17, returned to Paris at the age of 4, that is, 21 years old, worked as a hotel receptionist and porter, and later was favored by the director Yves Allegri, and entered the show business circle little by little.
He continued to practice his acting skills, and his resources were getting better and better, and he became famous with "Blood Ring" and shot more than 60 films.
Created a lot of anti-riot and righteous characters!
But in "The Dead Body of the Angry Sea", he needs to play a poor boy who will stop at nothing, be carried away by greed, and kill people for money.
Playing against DeLonge is Maurice Rohne, compared to DeLonge, Rohne's works are not much, but he himself is also very handsome, and when he and DeLonge acted in this movie, both of them are very good-looking, especially eye-catching.
The heroine is played by the French actress Marie La Fole, and as soon as she appeared on the scene, I realized, is this Audrey Hepburn? The appearance is indeed somewhat similar to Hepburn, but it is not Hepburn on closer inspection.
In this film she will play a fiancée with Rohne, a poor woman who has lost her lover and been cheated on by bad people.
Unfortunately, La Fole died on November 2 of last year at the age of 80.
These three people are super good-looking, so even if this is an old film from 60 years ago, it is also very eye-catching.
So what story does the movie tell? Let's briefly talk about the plot!
Tom was a poor boy with no stable job, no prominent family lineage, or even no object.
But what is hard to believe is that a poor boy like him has a super rich second-generation friend Philip.
This Philip took the rich father's money and went around looking for flowers and willows, and lived a life of drunken gold fans.
Not only that, Philip also has a beautiful fiancée, Maggie, and the reality is so heartfelt, which makes Tom envious.
One day Philip's father approached Tom and entrusted Tom with a reward of five hundred dollars to retrieve his son Philip.
Tom went to Philip and spent a few days with him, and lived with Maggie and the three of them.
On this day, Tom, Philip, and Maggie took a yacht to play together, Philip and Maggie made love in the boat, and tom, who was lonely and cold, was very upset, so he deliberately made a huge noise on the yacht and disturbed Philip's Yaxing.
Furious, he threw Tom off the boat and tied him to a rope to tease Tom.
When Philip was finished, the rope that bound Tom's boat had already been broken, and he was terrified.
Fortunately, Tom did not die, and finally found Philip and the two of them and got on the yacht.
Philip felt nothing, but the seeds of hatred had been planted in Tom's heart, and he took Maggie and let her down, and the two men got on the yacht alone.
Because of his hatred, his envy of Philip's life, and his admiration for his fiancée, Maggie, Tom killed Philip and threw the body into the sea after wrapping the body in canvas.
He painstakingly practiced Philip's signature and sent a telegram in Philip's name to Philip's father, asking him to pay for it and sell the yacht.
Later, Philip's friend came to visit, and Tom almost slipped his lips, so he had to kill Philip's friend as well.
Disguised as the illusion that the friend killed Philip and committed suicide, Maggie, who lost her lover, finally gave Tom a hug under the care and caresses of Tom.
Tom is beginning to enjoy the joy of the harvest, but Philip's body is dragged ashore, and on the other side of the rope of the propeller hangs another corpse.
After that, the plot will be left for everyone to see, here is a personal viewing experience.
When I was a child, I thought that killing people was impossible, and I knew that there were some things that could not be done.
But when you grow up, the cruelty of really seeing through reality will be angry.
We say that all roads lead to Rome, but there are people who live in Rome and are born with everything they can't get in their own lifetime, like Tom and Philip.
When these two kinds of people meet, jealousy is inevitable.
And we habitually, in order to cover up a mistake, will use countless lies and mistakes as a shelter, so that mistakes are made again and again, and finally cannot end, and humanity is lost.
Greed is the essence of human nature, but we must understand that some things do not belong to us, and if we have to have them, we must plunder, that is, we must seek wealth and kill.
Okay, that's it for today, so what do you think about that? Welcome to leave a message to communicate Oh!
