But some people just don’t accept their old age, but they are still working hard for their careers after they are old.
Pumpkin Jun said that he won the Oscar for Best Picture and Best Director twice, nominated for Cannes Palme d'HTM2 5 times, and also won the Venice Lifetime Achievement Golden Lion Award " Clint Eastwood " .
Because the surname can be divided into "East" and "Wood", many movie fans affectionately call him "Dongmu" .
Dongmu, born in 1930, is now 92 years old, but he has no intention of retiring.
Following the previous work " Richard Jewell's Elegy ".
After 3 years, the old man returns with a new movie -
"The Crying Man"
Cry Macho
Cry Macho
This old face on the poster is Clint Eastwood himself.
People who are familiar with the old man should know that he debuted as an actor.
"Borrow Trilogy" (" Golden Three Deadly ", " Dusk Double Deadly ", " Red Deadly ") starring him is recognized as a classic in western films.
Since the 1970s, Eastwood, who is good at acting and director, began his fifty-year directorial journey. There are as many as 40 works directed by
, and a large part of them are fine works.
" Bridge Dream ", " Change of Zi Suoyun ", " Captain Sally ", "Million Dollar Baby" , etc., all have both reputation and box office.
After more than 60 years of filming, he is known as the "living fossil" of Hollywood movie .
Whenever we think he is going to retreat behind the scenes, he will appear in his own video and bring us surprises.
This time is no exception.
In "The Crying Man", Eastwood's character is called Mike.
When he was young, he was a very popular rodeo star. Later, he fell off the horse in the competition and retired from behind and became a horse trainer.
retirement does not mean lying flat.
Even if you are old, you are still proud and strong in your bones.
After being disliked by the ranch boss for being old, he simply resigned and did not forget to laugh at him before leaving.
I thought I had forgotten my boss.
Unexpectedly, a year later, the ranch owner suddenly came and begged Mike to do something.
He wanted Mike to go to his ex-wife in Mexico to bring back their 13-year-old son Raphael in the form of kidnapping.
Mike is a strange person with a bad temper and has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband and father to his family.
But there is one thing, he did absolutely nothing wrong -
emphasizes love and loyalty.
Thinking of the kindness of the former boss, he took on this task.
After entering Mexico, he realized that things were much more complicated than he thought.
The ex-wife of the ranch owner is a very famous and powerful family in the local area, with tentacles spread all over the local area, both in black and white.
Before Mike could carry out the kidnapping operation, his ex-wife saw Mike's purpose and said harsh words early.
No one can take Raphael away.
Otherwise he would stay in a prison in Mexico for the rest of his life and die alone.
Any time she is fifty years younger, Mike will not be afraid.
But Mike, who is now over 90 years old, obviously has the will but lacks the ability.
So, without thinking, Mike decided to run away overnight.
But the car drove halfway, and Mike suddenly found that Raphael had been hiding in his car.
Not to mention whether Raphael's mother will come here, mainly this child is not a "good man".
Like all children in the rebellious period, Raphael likes to prove that he is a "pure man" with all kinds of rebellious behaviors.
ran away from home, fight, gathering people to fight cocks...
In his opinion, men just want to become bigger and stronger, and get rid of the fate controlled by adults early.
Especially the mother who has been abused by him.
And Mike's arrival just gave a grand blueprint.
When I heard that Mike was a cowboy, there was a ranch in the distant United States waiting for me to inherit. What else is cooler than being a cowboy?
So, he sneaked into Mike's car and decided to go back to the United States with Mike.
Raphael's ideal is very full, but what is placed in front of Mike is the fact that a disaster is about to come.
Mc had only one thought at the moment, so he quickly left this hot "sweet potato".
Kraphael also responded smartly and released a big move -
He directly threatened Mike. If he didn't take him away, he would tell the police that Mike abducted and molested him.
Mic was helpless and could only compromise.
So, the old and the young embarked on a long journey of continuous twists and turns.
In this process, the two people gradually got to know each other and collided with different sparks.
But don’t think this is a quiet road film.
Other side, Raphael's mother has sent a killer to pursue the two.
A thrilling escape journey began...
One person, one car, one child .
"The Crying Man" easily reminds people of the movie " Perfect World " directed by Eastwood in 1993.
Unknown journey, uncertain factors and the warmth flowing between characters.
are all familiar recipes and familiar flavors.
However, compared to "Perfect World", it is more like a yellowed love letter written to himself by a late hero .
The character of Mike is the master of Eastwood's screen role over the years:
Whether it is the ruthless retired cowboy in the center of " Unforgivable ", the lonely and mean boxing coach in "Million Dollar Baby", or the grandfather of the neighbor who is cold and hot in " Classic Car ".
All characters have extraordinary past like Mike.
They were crushed by the times, but they were unwilling to surrender to fate and time.
They have sharp personalities, but their hearts are filled with tenderness.
The most important thing is that when the wheels of time reach their old age, they try to make up for and redeem the past by doing something adventurous.
Interestingly, the film title is "Crying Man", but there are actually no men crying in the whole film.
But look at a sentence on the poster -
"This is a story about loss and search".
It is not difficult to understand all this.
Looking at Eastwood's works in recent years, we will find it.
He rarely shows off his skills in the video, but instead tells good stories steadily .
In his works, there are many complex and distinct characters, and these characters are the most realistic portrayal of Eastwood.
The old cowboy who was strong in front of the screen could not withstand the wind and frost of time.
But even without the attitude of a young man, he still has a stubborn soul that refuses to hunch his body.
. For the audience, no matter what the movie is evaluated, Eastwood's movie can be said to be watching one less movie.
and cherish it.
