Vol 2 Chapter 332: Three-line narrative


"Jane, you are half an hour late."
In front of an amg theater in Manhattan, Ivanka Trump complained to people who walked up to her, "It was you who asked me out to watch the movie, but I was late."
"Hey, Evie, you know the traffic conditions in New York."
With an apologetic smile, Jane Lauder took her arm and walked towards the theater, "Hurry up, my scheduled show is about to begin."
"What movie?" Ivanka followed her into the theater and asked curiously, "Can you be so anxious?"
"Duke Rosenberg's new film."
During the conversation, the two walked to the ticket window. It was Friday afternoon. There were not many people in the theater. After receiving the reserved movie tickets, Jane Lauder pulled Ivanka Trump into the movie. In the hall, I found two suitable seats and waited for the film to start.
Seeing that Ivanka Trump has been silent, Jane Lauder asked suddenly, "I heard that you and Duke were unhappy during the New Year party?"
"It's just a little misunderstanding."
Ivanka Trump adjusted a more comfortable posture and said, "Later I saw him at the Wharton School of Business, and we have already talked about it."
"Wharton School of Business?" Jane Lauder instantly revealed 9, like a gossip, "He went to you specifically?"
"No," Ivanka shook her head. "It seems that one of his director friends was shooting a movie near the Wharton School and happened to meet him."
"That should be Sophia Coppola." Jane Lauder immediately made a judgment.
This time the curious person changed to Ivanka, "Jane, it looks like you know him well."
"He has few friends, only a few, one of them is Irene."
Rolling her eyes, Jane Lauder said helplessly. "When you have a sister who often talks about him, it's hard not to understand."
Little girls have a gossip mentality, and Ivanka asked inquiringly, "Is he pursuing Irene?"
"No, he and Irene are just friends."
Having said that, Jane Lauder pointed to the big screen. "Stop talking, the movie is about to begin."
Ivanka? Trump let out a sigh of relief. Some time ago, she had received a package from New Zealand, but she didn't expect that guy to remember her...
After dispelling these unreliable thoughts, she looked at the cinema, and there were not many people, only a dozen or so.
"Isn't Duke very famous?"
Taking advantage of the opening of the screen, Ivanka asked in a low voice, "Why are there so few people watching his film."
"My dear. It seems that you don't understand the film industry." Jane Lauder immediately became a teacher and taught me in earnest, "This is just a small production with an investment of 10 million US dollars, and Warner Bros. does not do much publicity. , And it’s the off-season of movies, and those who like large-scale commercials won’t watch such small productions."
"Why are you pulling me here?" Ivanka asked.
Jane Lauder immediately gave the answer, "Because I am a fan of Duke."
"His movie is so good?"
Hearing Ivanka's questioning words, Jane Lauder turned to look at her. Seriously said, "It looks even better than the limit you imagine."
See friends like this. Ivanka Trump couldn't help but concentrate and looked at the big screen.
Warner Bros. and the Duke’s studio’s crown titles just flashed past, and a violent crash sounded in the theater. A high-powered off-road vehicle hit the vehicle that had just opened the door in front of the bank. The two were wearing headgear and cave The man pulling the body armor jumped from the off-road vehicle, holding in his hands an ak-47 automatic rifle with a drum.
Robbery of a bank money truck? Ivanka had just started this idea. The rapid gunshots sounded like a rainstorm hitting the glass. The two gangsters didn’t have any extra words, no extra actions, or even any thoughts. It was violent when they aimed at the money carrier. Strafing. Several escorts and bank security guards were shot and fell to the ground. The bullet-proof cash transport truck was also shot out of a hornet's nest-like crater...
No hesitation, no mercy, or even humanity, they are like bloated humanoid monsters, constantly shooting...
Not only the escorts and the security guards of the bank, the camera quickly switched, pedestrians in the distance were also affected, some were injured by bullets, some cars were broken glass, and the entire bank suddenly fell into panic.
The two gangsters finally stopped shooting, and the vicinity of the money transport vehicle has become a pool of blood. One person replaced the drum and held a gun to monitor the surrounding area, the other stepped over the corpse and entered the money transport vehicle, but only brought out a bag of money.
"Only a bag of money!"
Even if he was wearing a headgear, he could see the anger in his eyes, and he seemed to raise his gun at any time to shoot at the surrounding area again.
Fortunately, the other culprit was sane. After reminding him that the police would come at any time, the two ran to a Chevrolet parked on the side of the road and drove away.
From the start of the robbery to the final escape, the two of them took less than 5 minutes. The car escaped two blocks away. The gangster took off his headgear, revealing a fierce appearance, which fits the North American audience's usual aesthetics of robbers. .
One of the gangsters opened the bag of money. The bag was very big, but there was change in it.
"They haven't robbed too much. They must rob again."
Before the camera switched back to the bank, police officer Michael played by Liam Neeson was looking at the scene, "The gangster has automatic firepower and is equipped with a steel core armor-piercing projectile..."
The scene was in a mess, and the film also used this method to emphasize the fierceness and cruelty of the culprits. The robbery caused 3 deaths, 2 serious injuries, and 3 minor injuries.
In such a serious case, the entire Los Angeles police were mobilized. As the temporary person in charge of the case, Michael also assumed another task to notify the families of the victims that the deceased had been beaten into a hornet’s nest, which is not suitable for immediate Let the family members see that out of humanitarian considerations, the Los Angeles police will first send someone to notify the family members, so that they have sufficient psychological preparation.
Just like real cases in mainstream media propaganda, the Los Angeles police must have a very good image in the film.
Duke is a mainstream director, and he never thought about taking a non-mainstream path.
In fact, the theme of the film is very simple. It promotes the inevitable victory of justice that Hollywood has always advocated, and discusses family issues that mainstream society cares about. It touches slightly on the psychological and ideological conditions of Larry Phillips and Emile Matasalinu.
"It's not the same as Duke's past films, the rhythm is a bit slow."
Ivanka Trump heard Jane Lauder's murmur and did not respond. She was not an avid movie lover, but just a bystander, and she immediately remembered the content of the film. The North Hollywood Bank Robbery reported by the media...
Compared with the impression, the film adaptation seems to be a bit larger.
She peeked at a dozen people in the movie hall, and everyone stared at the screen. It seemed that the film was pretty attractive.
Ivanka's insensitivity to gunfights and other things, she just wants to know how the film develops, and the inhuman killing of the bandits at the beginning has inspired a sense of justice in her heart, and she wants to see two people fall the law soon.
This is also the reason why Duke handled it like this in the opening of the film. The film has a clear distinction between good and evil.
A pair of mother and daughter appear in the film. The mother is cooking dinner and waiting for her husband to return home. The daughter is sitting in front of the TV watching cartoons, joking and laughing with her mother from time to time, a very warm family.
However, there was a knock on the door, and the news from Officer Michael broke the warmth of the family. The hostess went from consternation, doubt, certainty, sadness to despair, and finally collapsed on the sofa and was carried away by her. Her daughter hid at the turn of the stairs, and big tears rolled silently from her face...
"I promise, I will bring the criminals to justice!"
Facing the painful Catherine, Michael could only give such comfort. He had said this many times in the past, and most of them could not be fulfilled at all. However, he saw this broken family and never caught the gangster. Strong.
"I promise, I will catch them!"
The grieving mistress, the little girl who shed silent tears, and the police officer who vowed to have a constant intersection.
"This kid has good acting skills."
Jane Lauder is completely expert, and regardless of whether anyone listens to it, she commented on her own, "Much better than her mother's rigid face."
Ivanka Trump squinted at her, and continued to watch the film without responding.
After showing the grief of a broken family, the camera follows Officer Michael back to his home. Like all heroic characters in Hollywood movies, there is always a problematic family behind the protagonist.
Although the girl who appeared in the lens was not a typical problem girl, her somewhat indifferent expression and the blunt communication with Michael all explained what is meant by no enmity and no father and daughter, and in the dialogue between the two, she also confessed the family. Background.
Because of work, Michael neglected to take care of the family, the relationship between husband and wife broke down. Lily, who grew up with her father, was in a rebellious period. She was extremely hostile to her father's profession and believed that the police occupation took away her originally happy family.
The father and daughter broke up unhappily. The two people hiding in the room behaved differently. Michael didn't know how to communicate with his daughter in the rebellious period. In addition to the anxiety about the case, he could not sleep over and over again.
He is like most fathers in this world, deeply in love with his daughter, but can't find a suitable way of expression.
On the other hand, under Lily's indifferent appearance, there is a heart eager for family affection. The distress caused by family breakup made her choose poison, and she switched from dama to cocaine. She chose to vomit. The foggy way numbs my pain.
Every family always has its own worries, the camera changes, in the three-line narrative, the other two lines also begin to appear in the camera. (To be continued...)
