As the college entrance examination and the high school entrance examination end one after another, the summer vacation for college students is approaching, and it is time for the annual drama shortage. As the epidemic eases, cinemas in some provinces and cities are about to open, and you can feel the strong happy atmosphere everywhere. However, I would like to suggest that everyone is most important to safety. Try to choose to watch movies at home and wait until it is more stable before going to the cinema.
Friends who like brain-burning suspense dramas can watch another high-scoring domestic film I recommend with a Douban score of 8.1!
A good movie can often stand the test of time and settle down. After many years of watching it, you will still feel that it is a classic. As a rare crime biographical film in Hollywood, "The Cat and Mouse Game" released in 2002, I think it can be called a classic.
In fact, the whole movie can be summarized in one sentence with simple plot, but it can be complicated and complicated. Simply put, this movie tells the story of the male protagonist Frank, a 16-year-old boy who is not yet adult, who perfectly interprets many high-level fraud methods, which actually caused a headache for the entire US FBI. It took him several years to catch him. Indeed, this is a cat and mouse game. In this game, Frank's mouse always makes agent Carl lose, always one step late. Frank was able to observe people's words and deeds, keenly discover the flaws in this, and then use loopholes to take advantage of them. He was really a genius player. He was able to play the role of the deputy pilot of Pan American Airlines for many years, play the role of doctor, lawyer, teacher, make counterfeit money, and live a luxurious and glamorous life, traveling around more than 50 states in the United States and more than 20 countries in France. What an incredible thing this is. In the movie, Frank once repeatedly said "An honest person is fearless." He is the person who deceives others while also trying to convince himself that he is the person who plays the role he plays.
In the movie, the characteristics of the United States in the early 20s are fully displayed, with a very American style. After watching the movie, you can feel a little cultural heritage of the United States, which seems to be a fusion of the American dream, fashion, family, honor, status, openness, hero, and other elements. The beginning of the movie is mainly dark and low; while the middle part is full of youth and vitality, and the plot is orderly matched, with Frank's brilliant appearance, and his deep loneliness and desire to get affirmation; the ending of the movie is the most surprising. With Carl's efforts and guidance and help, Frank used his exquisite counterfeiting skills to work for the FBI. In an overnight stay, he went from a fake thief to an expert in solving the check fraud case, and obtained a happy ending and self-salvation in life. People call it "the depravity and return of genius."
The picture that touched me the most in the movie is how Carl found the picture of Frank, which was frozen in my mind for a long time. Originally, you might have thought that Frank had such a luxurious life in front of him and made so many counterfeit money. Even if he was caught, he should be in a high-end hotel or enjoying it. However, the style of the movie changed. On that Christmas Eve when every family was reunited, Carl found Frank sweating and covered in motor oil in a dilapidated house, alone, printing counterfeit money alone. When he saw Carl, Frank was shocked and could not believe it. Only at that moment did all his previous disguise and all his strong support instantly shattered and collapsed. I think you will definitely be touched at that moment and your eyes will be moist. After all, he is just a child who has not yet grown up, but he has to bear all kinds of disasters and misfortunes from this adult world, and needs to force him to disguise himself as an adult who is well versed in the secular world.
When he was young, he experienced his father's bankruptcy due to tax evasion and his mother remarried. He had to make a choice with whom he had to make. The blow to life instantly hit the head of this childish boy, and Frank's heart was severely hit.When he was unable to face this predicament, he chose to escape, but because he didn't have $5, he went astray and went on the road of crime. He couldn't help but feel heartbroken. He just hoped that he could make more money, get the recognition of his father, and get fatherly love. He hoped that his mother could return to his father's side, rather than his mother reorganizing his family and living a happy life. His father was busy making money all day long, and he was surrounded by neglect and loneliness. He hoped that through his own efforts, he could return to the happy family life in the past. This is the original intention of a child. In fact, in the movie, Carl and Frank always appear on Christmas Eve. It is because both of them are lonely. Frank cannot get the attention of their family. Carl was abandoned by his wife and daughter because of incompetence. The two lonely people talked to each other like friends, and eventually became the best friends of their lives.
When I finished watching the movie, I was surprised to find that in real life, there really is such a Frank and Carl in the United States. The movie is an adaptation of their story. In reality, Frank did play various roles in his youth and fought wits and courage with Carl for many years. He also did enter the FBI with the help of Carl and became a lecturer at the FBI, became close friends with Carl and Frank, and later got married to his true love, and had such a wonderful ending.
He is Frank Abagnell, known as the "most extraordinary liar of the 20th century". Since he was released from prison in 1974, he has assisted the FBI in arresting a large number of financial fraud experts and designed anti-counterfeiting checks for banks and others. In 1980, Abanel published his autobiography, Catch Me if You Can, which described his fraud experience in the first person. If you are interested, you might as well go and have a look. In addition to the movie
, there is a live-action story that is even more surprising and impressive. At the same time, this movie also made me think that parents divorce and fail to handle family relationships well have an important impact on children's healthy growth, both physically and mentally. Children are most susceptible to external influences when they are young, like to imitate the most, and have the strongest learning ability. Therefore, a good guidance is really crucial to children's future life path.
A movie of a criminal genius shows the interweaving of loneliness and love, which is a comfort to the lonely soul, and a call to love.
