Suspense films have always been the favorite of Sister Tiao.
However, if you want to say which country's crime suspense film is the most addictive, it must undoubtedly be Spain.
Unlike Hollywood's assembly line works, Spanish suspense films are more unique and do not fall into the genre.
And, never out of date.
Why?
Because it belongs to the brain interaction between masters.
Across the screen, the director and you wantonly move, sword and light sword shadow, so unhappy, and all you need to do is to see the move.
If the general suspense film is reversed and reversed, then the Spanish suspense film is the ballet 32 laps of whiplash.
After one, the people who understood shouted that it was so cool to see, and the people who did not understand it looked confused, plus went back to think about it for two weeks.
That's the charm.
For example, two years ago, the dark horse movie "The Invisible Guest" with a score of 8.8.
The reversal at the end of the look at the person is that the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are sweating.
This year, the same director performed a new work for us, "Mirage".
It combines a variety of classic elements such as the butterfly effect and parallel space, although it does not surpass the previous work, but it also brings us a good brain and visual feast.
Today, Tiao Jie is going to introduce you to another Spanish suspense film.
It's a lost pearl—
The End of the Tunnel.
Although it was only released on the big screen on July 25, this is actually not a new film.
The film was released in Spain as early as August 2016, and it was seen earlier than "The Invisible Guest".
Three years ago, it was definitely a surprise.
The male protagonist, Leonardo Spalaglia.
Argentine national treasure actor.
Played the "boyfriend" of the male protagonist in this year's Cannes hit film "Pain and Glory".
The heroine, Clara Lago, believes that everyone is not unfamiliar.
She is the heroine of another Spanish suspense film, The Dark Side, a black woman with a "green" belly.
It was they who staged a different kind of thrill.
(Get to the point, spoiler alert!) But Sister Tiao promises to be gentler... ）
Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The place that dives to the bottom of the sea from Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong and crosses the center of the earth to know the other side of the earth.
Like Mirage, it starts with a thunderstorm.
In the movie, rainy days seem to be given various different meanings.
Confused and blurry, I can't see the window clearly, and I can't read people's hearts.
The camera turns, the male protagonist, Joaquin.
A man living alone with a disability of both legs, the only thing he owns is a dog named Casimiro.
It's just that the dog, like him, can't stand up anymore.
Old age makes it difficult to even breathe.
After some consultation, Joaquin decided to euthanize the dog.
Dark weather, old dogs that can't be treated.
Everything feels gloomy.
But just then, a sharp doorbell had to interrupt Joaquin's thoughts and what he was doing.
who? Visiting on a rainy day?
Open the door, a mother and daughter.
They were not Joaquin's wives and children, but tenants.
Came in the rain and did not make a phone call beforehand.
Strange.
After coming in, I didn't think of myself as an outsider.
Or rather, the enthusiasm is too much.
Not only did he walk around the house in his super shorts, but he also helped Joaquin sort out his books and clean his room.
She introduced herself to herself as a stripper named Lampota, and the little girl she had brought with her, a six-year-old girl named Betty, was her daughter.
Then I explained to myself that this profession is not what you think it is.
That means... such?
Yes, not long after moving in, the dancer showed Joaquin a wave of her dance skills on Joaquin's birthday.
The figure is hot, the movements are bold, and the people who watch it are indeed pleasing to the eye.
But why does it feel like naked seduction?
Could it be that the spring of a man who lives alone with physical difficulties has just come?
It's not that simple.
Women are real, but not his.
So who is this man in the shot? They seem to be under surveillance?
At this time, the main line of the story was finally drawn out.
steal.
What the robbers want to steal is the bank vault next to Joaquin's house.
And all this is actually in Joaquin's grasp.
The beginning of the film has already shown us joaquin's ability.
Joaquin's house has a basement, and although he has difficulty with his legs and feet, he is a programmer with excellent skills and has a complete set of technical equipment.
He often experimented in the basement, and the constant noise in the next room had already made Joaquin suspicious.
wiretapping.
Yes, he decided to eavesdrop, but when the wiretapping no longer met his needs, he opted for surveillance.
In this way, Joaquin knew all the theft plans of this gang.
Including digging tunnels under his house, including Lang Bota actually came to monitor him.
These are two groups of people connected by tunnels.
At the end of the tunnel is the bank vault.
On both sides of the tunnel, Joaquin on one side and thieves on the other.
Logically, the thief is the villain, and Joaquin should naturally belong to the positive role.
However, many of this year's TV series and movies have told us that there is absolute good and evil in this world.
So is Joaquin.
He chose to take a dangerous step, black eat black.
Yes, his plan was to get the money before the group.
This requires a precise planning and calculation.
But if it is discovered, it is death.
The end is like some guy who could lead to a leak.
After that, every time Joaquin went into the cave, it was frightening.
The contest between the praying mantis and the yellow finch, who loses and who wins?
Sister Tiao does not intensify much, only tells you that there will be a big reversal.
Finally, let's talk about a few details.
About Joaquin.
Why on earth would Joaquin take such a big risk to get this money? Is it just because of greed?
Not quite.
He was short of money, but the main reason was because his house was about to be auctioned off.
His home is gone, and this home is his only spiritual sustenance and memory.
Abandoned entertainment facilities, tattered cars, and a few old photos.
Originally a happy family, the wife and daughter were killed by a car accident, leaving only the dog to live with him.
Stealing a vault is an accident and a process of self-redemption.
About the mother and daughter.
Did Lampota just come to spy on Joaquin? But why the sudden tears?
Why did her daughter walk to Joaquin's bed in her underwear in the middle of the night and stare? (Emphasis here!) ）
Suffice it to say, don't miss a single detail.
This includes starting Joaquin injecting the drug into the biscuits.
Is it to euthanize dogs, or is it used somewhere else?
About the title.
It's an intriguing name, the end of the tunnel.
What exactly is the end of the tunnel?
Is it light or can only move underground in the darkness that can never see the head.
I think it's all up to you.
It's like the tunnel of life.
I don't know what's at the end, but it's better to climb hard than to sit and wait for death.
Maybe even the old dog can stand up?
