《赴汤蹈火》—Lord of the plains.

Lord of the plains.

As one of the border trilogies, "To the Soup and the Fire" is full of western style and the shadow of road movies at the same time, and it is a film worth quietly brushing off.

This is Texas。 As the second-largest state in the United States, its name is derived from "ally", but ironically, not only is it allowed to carry guns openly, but it has also been clamoring for independence. The movie story takes place in this place. A pair of native brothers brought about by the death of their mother, they did not work under the legal framework to revitalize the family, nor did they block the road and rob the end of the world to live a "grassy" life, but chose a very "Texas" way to get their life back on track. An older brother who has lost his life goal due to divorce, a younger brother who has just lost his good life after being released from prison, and a sheriff who is about to retire. Although they have their own different life trajectories, they have such a vigor in their bones, a kind of "barbarism" that does not know what blindly follows, and does not know what is high in the sky and does not know what is thick. Even in some restaurants here, you don't even have the right to choose food. This is Texas, the kind of "shackles" that never have a line of sight to block life, and people have long since lost sight of what bondage is. So when bankers want to tell them what the rules are, someone comes and tells them this is Texas!

kernel. Generally speaking, the opposing sides in the movie have obvious positions of right and wrong, but after watching "Go to the Soup", you will feel that the core of the bad guy can also be a kind of ordinary people's affectionate cry for the pursuit of a better life. The older brother Toby wants to leave his mother's farm, he wants to leave this inheritance to the children, and the younger brother Tanner leaves his hopes to his brother as well. Here I would like to say more about the absurd character of the younger brother Tanner, who is not between madness and stupidity, but in fact, there is a calm and doomed tragic core. This was a small hint after they accidentally robbed the family and returned to the farm to change cars, the older brother driving, the younger brother sitting in the co-driver looking out the window, revealing a determined look that was diametrically opposed to his personality.

Story. Regarding the storytelling of the movie, I sincerely hope that when you watch the movie, you should also look at him with any definition like a Texas man, or even with any expectations after recommendation, after all, there are really not many movies that can seriously tell stories this year.

Recommended Easter Eggs:

Male protagonist Chris. Pine has extremely deep pupils, and I believe that few women can gaze at it for a long time.

In fact, the film can have a deep shadow of the capitalist revolution, and everyone can think about it carefully after watching the movie.

From the perspective of this Chinese name, I think the translator understands the movie, because he gave the title of the movie to his brother Tanner Howard, gave him, in addition to sublimating the role, but also the Texas, freedom, family, brothers, good and evil and so on These elements are perfectly integrated, and people who want to see it can experience it in the movie.
