Remember "Old White"?
Of course, it is not Bai Zhantang.
What Uncle Fish wants to say is the male protagonist "Lao Bai" in the classic American drama "Breaking Bad".
A fierce character who went from being a high school chemistry teacher to becoming a big drug lord step by step.
The appearance is too classic, and it is clear at a glance that it must be hard stubble
In my eyes, this has always been one of the most classic characters in American dramas.
On the one hand, it is a bitter little person who is deeply involved in a midlife crisis.
On the one hand, he is also the boss of a criminal syndicate who is greedy for profit.
Whether it's from the contradictory and tragic character design, or from the actor Brian Cranston's extremely tense interpretation.
Can taste too much depth and complexity.
Recently, "Old White" Brian Cranston has made a strong comeback with his new show.
Uncle Fish has been following two episodes at present, and he is very excited.
There is a feeling that "Breaking Bad" was reborn.
Today, I can't wait to share it with you -
"Your Honor"
Your Honor
"Lord Judge" is a 10-episode miniseries that premiered on the 6th of this month.
The first three episodes are known to be directed by Edward Berger, from Germany, who has directed a series of critically acclaimed television series in recent years.
Among them, "Melforth" starring Roll Fu has a Douban score of 9.0.
"Lord Judge" is based on a 2018 Israeli drama "Kvodo".
Because it is too unpopular, there are no related pages on Douban, and only some information is seen on IMDb.
114 people scored 8.2 points, and the reputation was good.
The show has just aired two episodes so far, with a Douban rating of 9.1 and an IMDB rating of 8.6.
Obviously, the level has been further upgraded.
Male lord, needless to say.
Starred by "Old White" Brian Creston.
In 2014, he won the Golden Globe Award for Drama Drama with his outstanding performance in the fifth season of "Breaking Bad".
After becoming famous, he put more energy into the field of film.
Films such as "Trumbo" have also been widely recognized and nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor.
This return to the TV series to pick up the beams, very exciting.
He plays Michael as a prestigious justice.
He has adjudicated many cases, whether it is sharp speculation or a sense of justice and responsibility, which is widely recognized.
Widowed in middle age, he raised a son, Adam, alone.
And all the stories begin with an accident in Adam.
When he woke up this morning, he looked sullen and worried.
This day was his mother's death day.
After packing up, he went to the courtyard and picked a few yellow chrysanthemums.
He drove to the Lower Ninth Ward, stopped in front of a house, and paid tribute to his mother.
This is a neighborhood of low-level blacks in New Orleans.
The streets are poor and dilapidated, and the walls are full of all kinds of graffiti.
At this moment, suddenly a group of local black approached him.
They showed obvious hostility towards the "uninvited guest".
Panicked, Adam hurried to the car and tried to leave quickly.
Poor Adam suffered from asthma.
In such a tense atmosphere, asthma suddenly attacked.
Coincidentally, there was a bump in the road, and the inhaler for asthma relief accidentally slipped under the seat.
Immediately after that, a black private car suddenly approached.
What these two cars are coming from, I can't guess at all.
And Adam was already in a terrible mess.
While paying attention to the rear car, he played the steering wheel and groped for the inhaler.
In this instant, tragedy struck.
A motorcycle sped up from the front and collided head-on with Adam's car.
Driving the motorcycle was a young man about Adam's age.
His whole body was knocked up, and when he fell to the ground, he rolled over several times in a row.
Shoes knocked off, big things are not good
The black car that had been following Adam saw this and immediately turned around and left.
Apart from that, there was no one else, only a wild dog who witnessed the whole process.
Watching the knocked-down young man gasp, Adam fled into the wilderness, hit-and-run.
At this point, the camera turns and receives the father, Michael.
At the end of a busy day's work, he returned home.
He was greeted by his soulless son Adam.
After listening to his son's confession, Michael was shocked.
Even if he tried to rationally find out whether the accident was salvageable, it was still to no avail.
While comforting his son, he prepared to take him to surrender.
At the same time, he also tried to contact the detectives and lawyers he knew, and tried to take more care of his son in the subsequent interrogation.
Meticulousness can be said to be worthy of the dual identity of father and judge.
But when he entered the police station, he did not immediately speak up.
Instead, I noticed the other side of the police station—
The father and mother of the deceased also came here, almost in pain.
Michael fixed his eyes on it, as if he saw Yan Luo.
Frightened, I took a breath of cool air.
Quickly turn around and leave the police station.
When he saw his son waiting outside, he immediately told him to get in the car and leave.
The son was confused, he had hesitated before, but now he had figured it out.
At this time, Michael's face changed, and his father became a tyrant.
If it weren't for the outside, it is estimated that I would want to slap my son.
Uncle Yu had a premonition at this time, and Lao Bai was coming back.
He lowered his voice and said sharply:
"You killed Jimmy Baxter's son this morning."
This Baxter is the most murderous and dangerous gang boss in the whole of New Orleans.
Obviously —
Even if they turn themselves in, Michael's family will not be easily spared by the gang.
He rushed home with his son.
Clean up blood coats, wipe vehicles, destroy evidence...
He had made up his mind to protect his son at all costs.
On the other hand, the gangster is also determined to find the hit-and-run who killed his son at all costs.
The air duel between the two fathers officially began.
An accident leads to the confrontation between good and evil, but the identity is completely reversed.
The righteous judge becomes the sinner who shields the perpetrator;
The evil gang boss became the victim of an accident.
One wonders how things will unfold.
Both the atmosphere and details of this play are presented very well.
For example, the process of crashing and escaping is actually stuffed with various bridges.
Adam had no intention of running away at first.
He noticed that the victim seemed to be muttering something.
As soon as they got closer, the other party spat out a large pool of blood.
Because of the mouth full of blood, the injured person could not breathe well.
The sound of rapid breathing accompanied by blood is very real.
Adam picked up the other person's mobile phone and dialed 911.
But because of his asthma attack, he couldn't say a word.
Even I was in danger.
The audience's heart can be said to mention the throat eye.
These details are the foreshadowing specially buried by the creator, hinting at the direction of the plot.
And Michael deserves to be a seasoned legal official.
Quickly start to act, for his son to hide the sky and cross the sea.
The first step is to destroy the traces.
That night, he came to the bridge with a pile of objects that would prove Adam's sins and threw them into the river.
However, because he stopped illegally on the bridge, he was caught by the police car.
Looking at the officer who stepped out of the police car, Michael was in a hurry.
I remember hearing about the defendant's lawyer having to urinate every 15 minutes because of prostate cancer in the morning.
Start urinating directly in place.
Before the officer could swear at the street, he claimed to have prostate cancer.
Hearing this, the police officer, instead of suspecting his suspicious behavior, felt sympathy and apologized.
Michael escaped.
The second step is to find the scapegoat.
He found an old friend in politics, a candidate for mayoral election.
Ask him for help in making his accident vehicle disappear and become a missing vehicle.
The candidates made a phone call, from the sheriff to the gang leader to the newcomer.
A scapegoat is born.
The third step is to prepare for the alibi.
Early the next morning, Michael began preparing a montage.
Took his son to breakfast and deliberately talked to the lady of the restaurant about yesterday's case, as if he was going to be sentenced today.
Then he and his son made up the process of going to the cemetery to pay homage to his deceased wife.
This paragraph is quite a bit like the meaning of the domestic film "Manslaughter".
Replace yesterday's memories with today's experiences.
Make sure your defense is true, reasonable, and free of loopholes, and that the witnesses you encounter confuse the date and impress them at the same time.
But even so, there were too many accidents in my son's car crash.
The asthma after dialing 911, the inhalers that were lost, the residents of the Lower Ninth District who met on the road, the beggars who begged for money, the grumpy drivers who met at the gas station...
There is also a foreshadowing.
The family dog took some of the evidence while Michael was cleaning up the car.
All of them indicate that Michael's father and son will be in danger next.
And the gangster side is naturally not a fuel-saving lamp.
That night, the big guy's men found an inhaler at the scene of the accident.
Through the child's phone record, I found the phone number that dialed 911.
So many accidents, so many handles, how to be round and clean?
It depends on how the judge can turn the danger into a disaster and survive in a desperate situation.
The harder it is, the more exciting it is.
In addition to the advancement of suspense, the portrayal of characters in this drama is also quite rich.
Often a few seconds of footage will make the character image come alive in an instant.
For example, Michael wept silently in his bedroom alone before he was about to take his son to turn himself in.
The dual identity of judge and father made him suffer.
Even a scheming judge is, after all, just an ordinary person.
Only when one person can truly achieve emotional release.
The impartial justice, for the sake of his son, goes to the path of crime of concealment.
Isn't it the old white man who raised money for his family to sell drugs?
Man has seven passions and six desires.
The same is true of judges, and so are the gangsters.
On weekdays, he is arrogant and vicious.
In front of his son, he is also a gentle and kind father.
It turned out that on the day of the accident, he just gave his son who was about to celebrate his birthday a big gift - motorcycle.
After the death of his son, he could not bear the pain of losing his son.
He even blamed himself for giving the motorcycle to his son early.
Turning grief into murderous intent, he vowed to find the perpetrator.
In this war, good and evil are inseparable, and good and evil are inseparable.
But one thing is certain, the judge has been innocent.
At the same time, from the moment he sought the help of the mayoral candidate, he was doomed to be inseparable from political struggle.
The duel between the two fathers gradually escalates under the continuous impact of the incident.
It is about to turn into an all-out war between two gangs and political blocs.
Evil, there is no turning back.
And look at our old white, how to go all the way to the end.
