This winter, Aunt Wen was lamenting the famine of the American drama winter break, but the corrupt country sent me more and more surprises.
First is the fourth season of "Sherlock", followed by this god drama with a flying reputation -
"Taboo"
The first episode just came out, IMDb did not hesitate to give a high score of 9.4!
Douban 9.0 points.
This drama is rich in elements, set of war, history, money, revenge, thriller, suspense, chaos, basic love, fruit (luo) body...
It's so unorthodox, it's just so heavy!
The old driver knows that as a TV series, it is very important whether the premiere episode has something to watch and whether there is suspense.
Sure enough, the show didn't disappoint you.
Under the retro and dark plot, there are many doubts, and the first episode throws out clues that cannot be counted on both hands.
If this kind of screenwriter had been placed in China, it would have been beaten back and revised.
Aunt Wen came to make a squeeze.
The story takes place in 1814, when the male protagonist James Delaney (Tom Hardy) suddenly appears at his father's funeral, shocking the funeral that no one is sad to cry.
Because he was "dead," James's sister was struck by lightning.
He was not welcome, and the people of the East India Company.
They had already negotiated a deal with the man's sister - the purchase of Nootka Island.
As soon as James returned, things fell apart.
Because Nutka Island is the inheritance of James's father, it is only left to his son, and he has a half-cent relationship with his daughter.
Nutka Island is the gateway to China, and taking it, the silver of The White Flowers of China will flow like water into the pockets of the British.
The East India Company is determined to win this! When the East India Company's gang threatened to lure and bully, James said:
Lao Tzu understands better than you! But, sorry, Lao Tzu doesn't sell!
The chairman of the honorable East India Company, which spanned the entire globe, was so angry that he wanted to solve the problem by civilized means, but now it seemed impossible.
Old way, do it!
The killer came on the field, but was killed by James, and he himself was seriously injured.
So the old man wrote a will:
If you want to kill me like you kill my father, I'll give Nutka to the Yankees, and I won't leave you a fart, and let you chickens and eggs fight!"
The East India Company is dumbfounded, how else is this playing?
An actress appears, and she is legally married to James's father, the rich drek, and she deserves half of her husband's estate.
Simply a savior for the East India Company!
At this point, the Yankees also began to move, and they quietly approached James and talked about buying and selling.
So, whose clutches did this barren island of Nootka, which is so barren that only stones and Indians fell?
If you think that this drama is such a simple and clear clue, you are very wrong!
There are countless doubts (super pits) waiting for you to solve (jump).
Pit 1:
What kind of emotional entanglement did James have with his half-sister (German orthopedics).
As soon as James returned, he said to his sister:
The feelings of German orthopedics are particularly sensational, and the sadomasochistic love + family struggle is simply a test of human nature.
James and his sister's emotional scenes are estimated to be in every episode.
She always hid herself tightly, saying no no, but physically she was still very honest.
This scene of the church is almost fake and real.
Pit 2:
How could the domineering general have so much money, and what did he do in Africa?
The first episode opens with the immediacy of Monte Cristo's Revenge.
Trapped by love, he ran away from home, accidentally boarded a thief's boat, and his body was branded.
How did he make so much money?
Where do those rock sugar cubes come from?
As soon as you come back, you will take the money and smash people! So wayward!
Pit 3:
James often chanted mantras, was he a wizard? Psychic? Or hallucinations?
Who are the people in the sudden picture?
I like to watch ghost movies and suspense movies!
(Note that there is a shadow of a person in the picture)
Although his mother had died, the housekeeper was still there, and he understood that the housekeeper knew the origin of this thing.
But James didn't force him to confess immediately, and we don't know the truth.
Pit 4:
In the face of the East Indies, James's strategy was to unite all the forces that could be united, from the operation of the intelligence network to the contact in the United States, plus the blessing of African black magic/witchcraft/occult (the ghost knows what it is called, or who of you will examine it).
The question is what is his motive?
At present, it seems that the purpose of buying a ship is not to trade for money, because he is prepared, diamonds are all bags, can you make money?
There are several directions that are debatable.
One is redemption, he wants to transport the toiling masses, including black slaves, to the United States; the other is revenge, to avenge his father. The third is the lover, he seems to still want to get back together with his sister, so evil!
Don't look at James's daily wandering the streets and alleys, in fact, it is very patterned, thick and thin dark, is not the biggest bright color of this play.
Taboos, since they are all called taboos, there must be many taboos that can be dug!
Pit 5:
Who is the boy James raised?
Is it his illegitimate son with his sister?
His brother?
It is completely invisible at this time.
Pit 6:
James went to buy news from someone from the East India Company, could he succeed?
How can there be no corrupt plot in the corrupt country god drama.
The man dressed as a woman is James's classmate Goldes, can he see the basis and money, and put water on James?
Pit 7:
Did James really not sell Nutka Island?
James is not selling Nutka Island, he is waiting for the price to sell, what does he really want?
You must know that he is not Chinese, and he will not stop the sale of opium to China.
And James looks very cold, very dark, always a fierce god of Lao Tzu in the world, but he can't stand the tenderness in his bones.
For Daddy's widow, the actress who came from afar, he was willing to help.
Despite that, she dismissed his warning with a look of disdain and a smile.
Who the hell are they? Who wants to use the inheritance rights of Daddy's widow to attack? Is it American? Or the British?
Americans don't have to go to such great lengths, they are naturally british with chicken belly. Because actresses are their only breakthrough.
What are their goals?
It was nothing more than half of the property rights in her hands! The so-called contract spirit of the award, the competition between them, are all deeper than the sea routine.
In addition to all of the above, there are many more questions, they are hidden in the dark and become taboo, can not be declared, only to wait for James Delaney to slowly reveal.
In addition to the brain-burning plot, the cast of this drama is also worth watching.
The domineering, crazy and gloomy James is played by Tom Hardy, known as "Soup Old Wet".
Some students, as soon as they heard the name, came, and some students came as soon as they heard that there was a fruit (luo) body.
Originally, Tang Lao Wet wanted to walk the birds frankly, but he was forced to wear a loincloth.
Tang Lao Wet was a weak little chicken cub, fresh and tender with a flower.
(Debut film "Company of Brothers")
After more than ten years of tempering, he slowly became a rough man.
(In The Revenant, he's a big villain.
It is worth mentioning that the script of this drama is dominated by Tang Laoshi and his father Chapps Hardy.
Screenwriter Steven Knight, this is their third collaboration after "Blood Gang" and "Rock".
James's sister was played by Ona Chaplin, the granddaughter of the great comedian Chaplin.
(Chaplin and his granddaughter Ona Chaplin)
The heroine is stoic, helpless, sad, numb on the surface, and the inner surge can be seen.
The chairman of the East India Company is Tang Laoshi's main enemy in the play, and the role is heavy.
Actor Jonathan Presy, who played the sparrow in Game of Thrones and the poor Governor Wetherby Swan in Pirates of the Caribbean, has played the role of leader in several film and television dramas.
Do you remember the red-haired heroine in Lola Run?
In the play, she plays a bustard who occupies the house of the male owner and runs a brothel.
After the man went home, he gave her two hours to let her get out of the egg.
Tang Lao's wet and fierce appearance is so afraid!
One after another mysterious events, mysterious characters, one after another, one after another, a bunch of invisible transactions, are coming to us without any taboos...
The first three episodes alone have thrown so many pits, and Tang Lao Wet and his father obviously want to do a big vote.
The overall style of this new drama is cold and dark, full of secrets, vague, blending history, religion, witchcraft, chaos, violence, war and many other elements, as to what exactly is taboo, we have to continue to see.
The character of Key Tang Lao Wet is mysterious, very enduring, and feels a lot like the violent rough guy in Mad Max 4, full of restless factors, and you can't predict what he will do next.
The delicacy of British drama and the atmosphere of American drama, the two are combined into one, very chewy.
Tang Laoshi has now begun to recruit soldiers, and the next series of black revenge moves are very much expected.
If it doesn't end badly, this is definitely a divine drama!
