"Be frank and lenient, resist strictly!" I believe that everyone has heard this sentence, in fact, this sentence has always been controversial.
Of course, this sentence is the product of a specific social period, decades ago, the rule of law in society was not perfect, people's legal awareness was weak, and although the slogan carried a sense of power, it was good that it was sonorous and powerful.
With the continuous improvement of China's legal system and the enhancement of people's awareness of the rule of law, there is the concept of "no doubt about guilt" and "freedom without restriction of law".
Convictions are evidence-based, and in the course of enforcing the law, the courts will deal with them on a case-by-case basis. Some people will exploit loopholes in the law to defend their own interests, and sometimes we think that the law is absolutely fair? But I don't think the law is absolutely fair, but it's trying to be fair and just.
The movie "First-level Fear" is a "popular law" movie, which is a thought-provoking movie, the plot is extremely frightening, and the stamina is full of momentum.
Starring Edward. Many of Norton's friends have seen his movie "Fight Club" for "First Level Fear" may not have seen it, this is a good actor, worship!
Have you questioned the evidence? It turns out that evidence can also be forged!
Have you ever questioned a lawyer? Lawyers can also be unjust!
Have you ever questioned justice? It turns out that justice also needs necessary conditions!
"First Fear" is an American crime and suspense drama, set in Chicago.
Bishop Rosen of the local church was killed, and the suspect Aaron was found at the scene, and the killing of the bishop caused a local sensation.
Martin is the lawyer of the suspect Aaron, he likes to defend the weak and famous crimes to gain fame and fortune, he wonders how the cowardly Arun can kill the protagonist?
The female prosecutor, Rena, firmly believes that Aaron is the murderer and that murder in bad faith must be sentenced to death.
Killing people to pay off debts, debts to pay off money, it is a matter of course.
What if it was the wicked who were killed?
The protagonist, Rosen, the superficial hypocrisy can not hide his multiple crimes!
Take the charitable fund as a real estate investment and take it for yourself.
The transformation of slums into high-priced shops in an attempt to sell them, despite the objections of the indigenous population, is bent on going its own way.
The most disgusting and perverted thing is to let the teenager in the choir perform a special performance, and he watches it from the side.
The supreme prosecutor, Shannash, also has some connection with the protagonist Rosen, and in the Martin investigation, it was found that Shannah and Rosen are real estate partners.
It turns out that the controllers of all kinds of power are delusional and dreamy of linking up with money, and at the same time they have power, they must also have money, and it is the style of corrupt officials who have always used power to open up the channel of money and seek private interests for themselves.
In order to make the plan run smoothly, Rosen and Shangnah made deals with the leaders of the slums. Fortunately, although the leader came from the barren land of the chaotic gang, he was very skeletal, preferring to die and directly refusing to trade.
As a result, the leader was assassinated by Shannard, and of course no one paid attention to the death of such a person. The superiors will not pay attention to the life and death of a bastard, no one will hold a grievance for the righteous, and no one will investigate the real culprit behind the scenes. The lives of the people at the bottom are like grass mustard, which can be ignored.
The death of the bishop here is a sensation in the whole city, and the media is particularly concerned. Martin's nemesis, Shannards, and the female prosecutor kept a close eye on Aaron, and if nothing went wrong, Martin Allen was destined to be crucified in the cross of fate.
If Aaron is not guilty, then the murderer must be someone else. In order to restore Aaron's innocence, Martin tried to collect evidence, but Martin has been confused by misinformation and has been misled, perhaps you think that these misinformations are done by sworn enemies Shannard and female police officers, but they are not.
In the process of digging up evidence, Martin discovers that Aaron has a serious mental illness – split personality... In a fit of rage, Aaron splits into another personality, Roy. Roy's personality is obviously a crazy person, so it is possible that Alan killed people during a psychotic attack. In this way, Alan is not intentionally killing, can be acquitted, and can become a famous lawyer after becoming famous.
The sudden discovery of the videotape is an important clue, Martin finds the tape in Alan's home, the contents of the videotape... A bit of color, it's a crazy video of Aaron, his girlfriend, and another friend recorded by Bishop Rosen.
The videotape above the trial was exposed, and Jenita wanted to force Arun to confess. However, unexpectedly, Aaron was enraged, and Arun's heart broke down, and Arun's other person, Groy, appeared. Roy violently and angrily pushes Rena down and beats people in full view of the courtroom, a scene that is difficult to control, and this time everyone thinks that Aaron is a mental patient.
After receiving treatment, Arun will be acquitted.
This is not the end! This is not the end! This is not the end! Say important things three times!
Martin, who had finally achieved fame, went to visit Aaron, and when he was leaving, Arun asked him to apologize to Rainer and ask her if her neck was injured, which made Martin thunder.
Shouldn't Aaron's illness be a post-seizure and not remember what he did?
So Aaron's psychosis is fake, it's fake! Aaron finally revealed an evil smile that made people's scalps tingle...
The ending is as expected at the beginning - Aaron is acquitted, but the truth is that Arun deliberately killed people, and the mental illness was pretended by him. Aaron's normal state is the grumpy Roy, and the cowardly Arun image is all pretended by him.
All justice collapses in this movie, and Martin tries to do justice in this play, thinking that his wish has come true, but in the end he is hit by this blow.
What justice is, a lot of justice is false, and everyone can only see the performance and it is difficult to see the essence. In the movie, justice is difficult to be upheld by the law, the bishop and prosecutor do bad things but no one cares, the black boss from the slums seeks justice but inexplicably dies tragically, and the justice that is finally kept is false, is this the result we hope to see?
In fact, what we want most to see is that prosecutors and bishops are put on trial by law, rather than relying on Aaron to design a crime to kill the bishop to solve this problem.
The law is above all else, there is a law to follow! There is a law to follow! Breaking the law will be punished! Law enforcement must be strict! The law is the lowest bottom line for people, but there are still people who want to trample on the bottom line. As everyone knows, Skynet has been restored, and it has not been leaked.
Everything depends on evidence, and if you can't find evidence, you are innocent, what if the evidence is false? This is more terrible than not being able to find evidence, false evidence will lead to the wrong outcome of the trial, so what is used to uphold justice?
The ending of "First Level Of Fear" is extremely frightening, and Norton's performance is too wonderful. Especially in the courtroom scene, the eye exchange between evil and pure goodness is full of tension, and Norton's last smile is very evil.
What is terrible about "First Level Fear" is not the dual personality, the terrible thing is that the dual personality is also pretended. But the movie is a movie after all, and the reversed plot and protagonist make people's scalps tingle.
Push this movie because it's really good!
