movie plot

False

The film was adapted based on real events. A single working-class woman, Christine Collins, left her child at home because of overtime. When she returned home, her son disappeared. The police first refused to accept the report within 24 hours, and the case was delayed. The original incomprehensibility of the Los Angeles police is now more questionable. It was not until five months later that the police suddenly told Christine to help her find her son and take the team media to pick him up at the train station, even though Christine saw that the boy was not his son, but the boy insisted on her son, police. Chang also tried to persuade him to leave his son for too long and could not recognize it. In this way, the newspaper is full of messages of mother and child reunion, and the Los Angeles police will save some face. However, Christine determined that the child must not be her, according to height, foreskin, and the judgment of the dentist and the teacher. I hope that the police will continue to search for a son, but they are rejected. They are also regarded as mentally ill and locked into a madhouse.

Official fighter

Christine discovered that many women here were locked in with the police. Only by ensuring that they no longer have to find trouble can they let go, so that power can cover up the truth and fully show the police's discriminatory practices of discrimination and injustice against women. Fortunately, on the side of Christine, the priest Gustav Briegleb, who had despised the police, and the prostitutes who were treated equally by the police in the psychiatric hospital, and many people who were also dissatisfied with the police, helped Christine to stand up from the court with a weak woman who was helpless. Los Angeles police officer against the thin court. On the other hand, the son’s whereabouts have gradually come to the fore as a perverted killer. The son had a chance to escape, but in order to help the other partner who fell, he returned to the killer farm and there was no news. In the end, the state government abolished Article 12 of the law that allowed Christina to enter a mental hospital. The police chief was demobilized and the police chief was permanently removed. Christina was searching for her son for the rest of her life, but she did not find it until her death.

Video segment preview

Clint Eastwood

With the work of Clint Eastwood and the trophy, it can be said that the Hollywood filmmaker is a generation of Taishan Beidou, and his 80-year-old is still active in the front and back of the film. Earn a name for a living fossil. Counting the number of actors and directors in Hollywood like Clint Eastwood, only the descendants Kevin Costner and Mel Gibson are in line with their line. But it is not an order of magnitude compared to it. In short, people like Clint Eastwood are afraid that they can't find a second one in Hollywood today.

Jubilee is not old

And every piece of such a character will also be accompanied by the attention of the public. The works of the old man’s last time, the "Iwo Jima Family Book" & "The Flag of the Father's Generation", did not reveal the old age of the old man, but instead used a humanistic perspective to tell the intriguing war of the cruel war. The praise was also received in the Oscar. The strength of the veteran plus this former Oscar title must be even more eye-catching. However, it is the recent film about the absence of black soldiers, but recently the black director Spike Lee lived and kept a bombardment. Clint Eastwood also put down the shelf and had a big fight with him for a few months. Although this incident is hurtful, one side is to let Spike Leder's new film "Santa Anna Miracle" get free publicity, and on the other side, Clint Eastwood "old work" is revisited for two films. It is good to get the prize.

Almost aborted

This film is the first time since Clint Eastwood has jumped out of the Warner Bros. However, this is not to say that there is something wrong with Clint Eastwood's relationship with Warner. Mainly because the original film was bought by Ron Howard of the world. The fascination of this film makes Long Howard feel that he can bear the masterpiece of his own re-enactment after the Da Vinci Code, but then Long Howard suddenly chose Foster Dialogue to become the next one. works. This move made the film shelved indefinitely and almost died. However, Clint Eastwood took the film immediately after reading the script, so he had his first cooperation with Universal in the past ten years. Speaking of the reason for the film, it is also because the film and Clint Eastwood's previous work "Mystery River" has the same purpose, and even can be viewed as two sister articles.

Angelina Jolie

The joining of Angelina Jolie also made the film a sharp highlight. Earlier, Angelina Jolie had expressed her admiration for Clint Eastwood to the media, and this time I was fortunate to cooperate with him. Julie was also very helpful. For the role of the thin figure in the film, Julie does not hesitate to lose weight, the whole skinny became a skinny, combined with the skinny skin on the skinny skin, it describes almost horrible. In the whole process of shooting, Julie is also free to ask for the experience of the older generation. Such a hard and painful spirit also made Clint Eastwood greatly admire him. He said "Juli is my vice president" and said later that she is a real acting actress, just her. Too beautiful, some cover her acting skills, and all kinds of praises are mixed. This year, Julie’s performance in this film is also the Oscar-winning laurel, and Clint Eastwood has always been a good-natured tradition. Julie’s prospects for winning this year are very optimistic.

Pros and cons

At the 61st Cannes Film Festival this year, the film also appeared as the main competition unit competition film. At that time, Julie was in the middle of the Liujia, but she still had a big belly to promote the film. In the film festival, compared with "Panda" Jack Black, it was a funny talk. Clint Eastwood himself was elected to the special jury award for his outstanding contribution to the world film. Kancheng and his party let the film start the propaganda offensive early. Of course, it is a good thing at the box office. However, in many Olympics, the film became the first to appear in front of everyone. Compared with the mystery of other films, the early exposure of the film seems to be quite unfavorable for its road to the Olympic bid. Of course, in addition to this film, Clint Eastwood also has a strange soldier "Classic Car" has not appeared yet.

Film analysis

"Change the doubt cloud" should be said that since the fall of this year, all the "Chong Ao" films I have seen, the most powerful one, is also the most twists and turns of the plot, the most fascinating, let people watch for a long time can not be calm, but also The saddest movie so far this year. In this film, Clint Eastwood basically repeats the sad and painful narrative style he used in The Mystery River, the dark gray tones, and the film has created a strong, resistant to male and corrupt forces. In the end, Angelina Jolie gave the role a full-fledged performance, which in all respects became the standard for many Oscar films. Unfortunately, the film lacks novel themes and controversial characters, but still praises ClintEastwood. It has been maintained at the level of work over the years.

Central theme

"The pursuit of the truth" is the central theme of "changing the suspicion." The end of one thing does not represent the truth. In many cases, people only care about whether things are finished or not, and they are neglecting the true face of things. Especially when we understand something in the media, if we have a case, as long as we see the newspaper saying that "the case is gone, the murderer has caught it, the incident has subsided", my heart is practical, but is it true? In "Change the Suspected Clouds", the editors believe that people's lack of attention to the truth has become a social atmosphere, and it is also the most lacking virtue in human nature at that time. The story is everywhere to emphasize the importance of the truth. From beginning to end, the heroine has not given up looking for her child. Even if there is more "evidence" in front of her, she chooses not to give up as long as she does not see the child or his body. Sometimes people around and even the audience feel that she is a bit paranoid, but for this reason, the story has been turned back and forth, and the truth of the missing son has been exposed.

Re-create the center of gravity

In addition to the "truth", Clint Eastwood is very ambitious in dealing with "The Suspected Cloud". As the story progresses, the film constantly changes its type and theme. At first it seems like a crime film about children missing, but at the same time Through the "reconciliation" of children to accuse the Los Angeles police of raising the image, regardless of the truth, lie, ignoring the interests of the people, the power of acting. With the development of the story, the heroine saw the unfair treatment of the Los Angeles police for women and the weak, and began to take the initiative to resist, and insisted on acting as a representative to declare war on corrupt powers and seek justice. At this time, the film seems to become feminist again. A strong female struggle film. Shaping a female hero and exposing the darkness of the law enforcement department at that time also became the focus of the story, but similar content is not uncommon in the past films. The film about LAPD or NYPD dirty work is not uncommon in recent years, except for "Luocheng Confidential". In addition, Pride and Glory, also released in the same week, is one of them. The police are no longer a representative of justice; Julia Roberts's "Never Compromise" and Charlize Theron's "Northern Storm" have also shaped similar female figures. In view of this "changing the doubt cloud", although it is a high-quality film art film, it still has the Eastwood style, but it is difficult to refresh.

overall evaluation

Even if he can no longer bring an Oscar for Eastwood, it is definitely a boutique, showing that Eastwood's knives are not old and the rigorous pursuit of art, but also shows his unique eye. Watching "Change the Suspected Cloud" is a rich emotional process, repressed, and heart-wrenching. Maybe you don't get much insight and content to explore, but the brain and heart will be carefully carved out for this appearance in these two and a half hours. The story of the ups and downs of the content is firmly stunned. After reading it, there will be a kind of exhaustion after the spiritual marathon, and the ending will not give people a sense of relief.
