The number one cinema understands Miss (topcinema original, strictly prohibited to reprint)
Some dramas are definitely worth waiting for.
Just on November 16, many people are counting the days of this American drama that they are waiting for, and it will start broadcasting.
As you may have guessed, the fourth season of Netflix's "Narcos," Narcos: Mexico, consists of 10 episodes of 50 minutes each.
As an extremely realistic crime drama, its first three seasons have received a high reputation, true, true, real (important things said three times), is its most distinctive label.
Therefore, even if there is no strong comparison, based on the real level, there are still viewers who think that it has completed the high-scoring American drama "Game of Thrones".
You know, there are still few American dramas that make fans feel so frightened, and even some fans leave messages saying that for safety, I hope the crew is safe, even if the fourth season is not filmed, it does not matter.
The reason why I say this is because this drama is really not very peaceful.
From the first season, "Narcos" focuses on Colombia's biggest drug lord Pablo Escobar, the most arrogant drug lord of all time. He was killed by the military on December 2, 1993.
However, Pablo Escobar's younger brother, Robert Escobar, took the show's producer, Netflix, to court and claimed a billion dollars for his belief that Netflix had used Escobar's name for unauthorized use of the tv series Narcos. He claims that he has already washed his hands in the golden basin and said that all the people and brands related to the group are under the umbrella of escobbar.
Later, Munoz (pictured below), a veteran landscaper on the Narcos crew, was killed while casting in Mexico, and his body was found in a car with bullet holes on the Mexican border, and the killer has not yet been found.
So Robert Escobar once again threatened the filmmakers, saying: "If I don't receive the money, you guys don't shoot this little drama!" He also warned, "It's dangerous for you to shoot in Colombia without our permission." He boasted that Netflix filmmakers didn't know about Columbia, and he warned Netflix that for the safety of its crew, it should hire gangsters as bodyguards.
Robert Escobar later said Netflix was particularly frightened and wrote him a long letter in which lawyers on both sides were negotiating compensation.
But even in this case, the fourth season of "Narcos" is still coming!
This is really an awe-inspiring TV series, and the crew is really filming with their lives.
Unlike the previous three seasons, this season is an independently produced spin-off that moves the time forward, temporarily moving from Colombia to Mexico, called Narcos: Mexico.
The fourth season, which tells the origins of the war on drugs, focuses on the Guadalajara drug cartel in Mexico: in the 1980s, Miguel ángel félix gallardo, a former police officer known as the Godfather, unified the scattered drug traffickers to form the guadalajara cartel.

In the play, The Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique " Enrique 'kiki' camarena moved from California to Guadalajara with his wife and children on an anti-drug mission, but he did not expect to face a fatal danger.

In the first season of "Narcos", it was mentioned that after "Kiki" was captured by the drug cartel, he was tortured and killed, skinned before he died, shot at his hands and feet, and used an electric drill bit.
The fourth season of "Narcos" still continues the realism of "Narcos".
In reality, "Qiqi" died a terrible death.
In February 1985, "Kiki" was kidnapped on the street, and a month later, his body was found hundreds of miles away on the side of the road, covered in bruises and inserted into the lower body by a wooden stick. (The picture below shows that the remains of "Qiqi" were transported away that year)
Behind this matter is not simple, the Guadalajara group took him to the United States Drug Enforcement Administration.
In Mexico in the 1980s, Felix Galado's Guadalajara group was a gangster overlord and had a very "good rapport" with the authorities of the time.
Allegedly, in response to U.S. pressure, the Mexican government would burn countless marijuana fields and arrest thousands of people, but they would not touch any of their petty bosses, and the drug dealers would never kill mexican policemen.
But all this has changed because of the intervention of the US Drug Enforcement Administration.
In 1984, a drug smuggling plane from Guadalajara to the United States was intercepted and 0.7 tons of cocaine was seized, resulting in nearly $100 million in compensation to the Colombian side.
So Guadalajara decided to take the man from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, and after discussion, they decided to kill The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent in Mexico, Enrique." Kiki" Kamarika.
After this incident occurred, the US side demanded that Mexico bring all those involved to justice, otherwise it would arrest people on its own. As a result, the Mexican government arrested three leaders of the Guadalajara group: Felix Galado, Raphael Carlo and Oniesto Fonseca.
In the 1990s, mexico's drug cartels were mired in a scuffle, and the Guadalajara group was split into three, with Felix Galado's assistant Joaquin Guzman taking a third, and he later developed into the world's most powerful drug dealer until he was arrested.
In the American drama "Narcos: Mexico", the "godfather" Felix Galado and the US Drug Enforcement Administration agent "Kiki" Camarekai are the two protagonists, although the fate of the two real people has long been known, but in this film, the interpretation of these two roles by two powerful actors is still quite exciting.
It is worth mentioning that the two Mexican characters are played by Mexican actors who are active in hollywood films.
Playing the fierce character Felix Galado is a handsome male star, Diego Runa.

He is an actor and director, versatile and has served as a jury member at the Sundance Film Festival and the BerlinAleuca. He starred in "Milk", played against Sean Penn, and also starred in the movie "Star Wars Story: Rogue One", playing the male protagonist Captain Cassian Amdo.
Michael Pena, who starred as the anti-drug agent "Kiki", is more familiar to fans.

In 2004, he became famous for starring in the Oscar-winning film Crash. Later, he has starred in many topic movies, including "Babel Tower", "Life and Death Sniper", "American Deception", "The Martian Rescue" and so on.
He not only starred in serious films, but also starred in the Marvel movie "Ant-Man".
Diego Luna and Michael Pena have worked together before, and in 2014, Diego Luna directed Caesar Chavez as a director, with Pena starring.
Reality is always more bizarre and cruel than movies, and what you see may not be the whole truth.
To be able to put such a story on the screen, even touch some relevant people, out of human life, but also to shoot in this way, I have to admire the courage and determination of the creators.
No one doubts the brilliance of Narcos: Mexico.
On November 16th, just sit back and wait for the broadcast to start.
