The beginning of the movie is very common. A young woman is refused a job in the hospital. When the doctor makes a perfunctory reply, the camera gives her a close-up of helpless smile. Obviously, similar refusal has been made more than once. Then the camera changes, the woman stands against the wall in the afternoon sunshine, with sunglasses on her face, which makes her lonely. The director's precise use of Yan s è makes the previous helplessness more clear.
In addition to Adrian's love Quintet, Julia has tried many roles in the past few years, but it's the first time that such a tacky look has been made. However, vulgar to vulgar, but there is no sense of disharmony. Instead, it gives people a feeling that she is. It shows that Julia has a good grasp of her temperament.
And then there's the car crash and the courtroom drama, big supporting actor Albert? Fennie also appeared, the court did not have too many confrontations, the opposite lawyer only used a small trick Ji angry heroine Irene? Brockovich, therefore, because of her rude words, the case was eventually defeated, so that Irene, with only a few tens of dollars left in the bank, lost her temper at her lawyer.
Just a few shots, only five minutes or so, Irene and Ed's Xing grid was initially outlined, a strong approximation rough, a cautious and some kind of old man's appearance. This gathering is full of contradictions in the drama, which immediately arouses the audience's interest. Especially when Irene finally had no way to find a job, she had to rush into Ed's office to ask him to solve the problem. After a few minutes of consideration, ed actually agreed, and also agreed to her request for an advance salary, which made everyone look forward to the following content.
However, the following story seems to be beyond their expectation. Although Irene is not popular with office people because of her style and dress, she still works hard to prove herself. But she didn't expect that when she went to investigate a case herself, and was allowed by ed himself, she was fired when she came back!
"I thought you went to play." The old man said innocently.
Do you think I'm such a woman in your eyes?! Is it so many days to run around to investigate, but also to do their best to study and get such a secondary result?! Irene also left unambiguously, even the old man said that he would make more calls to help her find a new job.
"You're just trying to lighten your guilt! I'm not going to make you happy! " Irene so announced, and then majestically left.
There is not much brilliance in the editing of this part. It is very common, but s è color is always used very well. The faint yellow color can make people feel a warm and unyielding atmosphere. Just like bones in winter, the editing is normal, but the actor's performance and the cold s è color are perfectly integrated together to fully interpret the hard feeling 。
Although this was an unexpected setback, everyone knew that it was bound to return to the peak circuit. Sure enough, the old lawyer came to the door soon, because a UCLA professor called to tell them that the legal maximum content of hexavalent chromium was 0.05 ppm, while the hexavalent chromium content in water in the case investigated by Irene was 0.58, so he wanted to know how to return Things.
Of course, Irene is the kind of woman who is pushing for more. What's more, she has a lot of bills to pay for if she wants to know, and she has a lot of bills to pay, and --
"I ask for a raise and employee benefits, including dentists." She said with the baby in her arms.
Ed thought it was blackmail, but after some bargaining, he had to agree: "OK, 10% plus welfare, this is my bottom line!"
From here, we can see that he has begun to recognize Irene's ability, but even how tough, under the close-up, the helpless face is still very clear, which caused a lot of laughter. Adrian's handling of the details makes many audiences have a good impression on the old man who often eats in Irene's hands.
Next, naturally, he began to work. The old man was surprised that Irene could collect so much information, and even a lot of information from the water bureau: "why can you walk in and do what you want?"
"Because I have big breasts." Irene's answer is very direct, again let the old man speechless.
This dialogue is naturally the audience's favorite, although they won't show it clearly, Irene's original vulgar and rude image has gradually changed to straightforward and lovely. Then, after more than half an hour of foreshadowing and characterization, the main line of confrontation with Pacific power finally opened.
A series of investigations and confrontations made the old lawyers angry and tired, especially when the other party threatened that they had 28 billion dollars of funds to spend casually, and finally got angry at Irene's accusation He called to Irene like this, and then Irene called in a louder voice than he did The old man was stunned and then laughed. The audience on the screen also laughed. It was Irene who was so direct and shrewd, but it was also because of this that she was so cute.
Driven by a strong sense of justice, Irene not only urged ed to intensify the investigation, but also tried her best to promote the progress of the case. She even went to the water source of the power company to collect samples for testing. Although this has made great achievements, the opinions of hundreds of households have finally been unified, and the court has finally accepted the case, she has also begun to face many problems.For example, the children were short of care because she was running around. She also missed the third child's first talk. The power company also used delaying measures to make ED have to cooperate with other more famous law firms. As soon as the other party arrived, they began to tell each other and looked down upon Irene, a non professional assistant. In addition, her personal safety has also been threatened. Not only have anonymous phone calls come in to warn her, but her home windows have been smashed several times, scaring the children into screams and igniting the fuse to break up with her new boyfriend.
That's the price of heroes, Erin in reality? Brockovich did receive threatening phone calls and was broken through the window glass, but ed gave her a lot of support at least in the difficulties encountered, and the partner's law firm did a good job. But who made it a movie? American heroes will never be short of setbacks and difficulties, and they will never lack supporting roles around them.
In the whole case, ed contributed a lot. At least in court, he won over the interests of those people. But who let this be a movie? Drama and conflict are always important factors in a good film. What's more, Irene is the main character of the film. Therefore, it is doomed that the story will not be too much ink on the court debate, and all other people except Irene are supporting roles. In fact, ray? Dolly is the same, but the hard and cold life of realism greatly diluted her hero s è color, even so, it does not prevent critics from comparing the two films.
In short, Adrian has done a good job in the story. With the experience of previous life, he has supplemented those defects one by one, strengthened them appropriately in details, and carefully regulated his best s è color. Even if the bedding is a little long, that is, there is no thrilling plot and picture, the audience is still firmly attracted.
Irene has made a lot of achievements, and ED has further recognized her ability. She not only wrote her a check of $5000 to let her rest, but also asked the court for a ruling because she could not sue publicly. Ji told her that you need to rest. You can't help me like this. This case can't be separated from you.
In the end, they persuaded all the residents to agree to let the court decide - although there was no jury, and there was no way to appeal if they lost, they could at least get compensation immediately - in addition to that, a man who had watched Irene for a long time and was responsible for destroying documents at Pacific power, found Irene.
"Don't scare him away, just calm down," said Ed, who immediately realized that this was a good opportunity when he got the call. "Don't forget, if it wasn't for you, I would have gone to Palm Springs to enjoy it. You are very persuasive. Don't ask him too many questions. Everyone has something to talk about. Try to let him speak on his own initiative... "
At this point, ED has fully recognized Irene's ability, and so has the audience off the screen, especially in the last part.
"You How did you do it? " The co-operative lawyer stuttered after getting 90% of the household's signed documents and a list of evidence.
"I was ignorant and never went to law school. Ed lost confidence in the system, so I had to sell out and help 634 people blow the trumpet in five days I'm really tired out. " It's always revenge, Irene said.
Off the screen, there was applause in the laughter.
With such evidence, it is natural that the Pacific power company is doomed to lose, and eventually it has to pay compensation as high as $330 million. Of course, the court drama will be skipped. It is not the home of the protagonist Irene. As an inspirational film, the hero naturally has a happy ending. So she finally takes her boyfriend back to visit the residents who have been compensated.
"I want you to see with your own eyes what you have done for me." She said to her boyfriend on the way.
When the first resident who visited was sobbing when she got high compensation, not only her boyfriend was moved by it, but also clapped again under the screen.
But it would be a big mistake to think it would be over. There was a little tail behind it. After getting the lawyer's fee, ed took the office and moved into a larger office building, and Irene also had her own office. Then, ed deliberately hesitated to tell Irene when he handed the dividend check to her that he thought the number he had negotiated was not appropriate, so he made some adjustments.
Sure enough, Irene immediately began to count, a string of words came out of her mouth, making ed almost unable to pay back, and finally had to leave the check, and Irene refused to stop until she saw the number on the check.
"As I said just now, the amount you proposed is not appropriate, so I added some. " Ed stood at the door and said, "has no one taught the beauty queen how to apologize? Your apology is terrible
With that, the old man of revenge hopped back triumphantly, leaving Irene with her mouth open for a long time before squeezing out a thank you like a mosquito. There was a burst of laughter and applause off the screen, and then clapped more warmly after the film ended.
"There's no doubt that it's a perfect work, with Julia and Albert performing, and Adrian's directing standard, reaching the level of s è. This movie is based on real people, Irene? Ms. Brockovich won the largest civil compensation case in the history of the United States a few years ago. As a single woman who had never attended law school and knew little about the law, and was also a mother of three children, she helped her boss to collect key evidence with her courage and perseverance, and made the court award Pacific power company $333 million in compensation.In this era of lack of heroes, Irene's story can be called shocking, but also with a trace of rebellious flavor, Adrian fully grasped this point, and used exquisite techniques to show it in the film. He doesn't use too complicated editing techniques. Like bones in winter, his kung fu is in details and s è. Just like bones in winter, it shows the unique hardness of Missouri mountains in winter from beginning to end, and never compromise is full of passion and persistence that California should have.
It has to be said that Julia's performance is extremely s è, which should be the best performance of her acting career so far. Irene's strong, forthright and sense of justice are incisively and vividly interpreted by her. Although she is somewhat vulgar, she is vulgar and lovely. Albert's performance is not inferior to Julia's, as the old lawyer ed perfectly complements her. The interaction between the two is always the most interesting part of the film? Eckhardt, became a dispensable angle s è.
It is meaningless to compare "never compromise" and "bones in winter". Both films are very s è and have their own characteristics. We have to admit the miracles of miracle director. The styles of "never compromise" and "bone in winter" are completely opposite on the same theme. They both describe the firmness and unyielding in difficult environment. The former is full of one from beginning to end The latter is deeply rooted in reality and tries to show the coldness and cruelty of life.
There is no need to analyze which is more profound. This is an unsolved problem. Adrian has directed too many films with completely different styles. No wonder some people say that he is an all rounder director. It is difficult to believe that these films were made by the same person. The only thing that can be connected is the use of s è tune. Yes, Adrian's use of s è is almost superb. Throughout his films, he is very brilliant in the use of s è, which is probably one of the reasons why he took over the "eye opener" guide from Kubrick.
In any case, "never compromise" is a wonderful movie worth seeing
Francis, San Francisco Chronicle? As the main newspaper of the newspaper group that has the closest cooperation with AC media, the San Francisco Chronicle naturally highly praised Adrian. If it was written before the film was released, it might be ridiculed by many people, but after the film was released, it was a piece of praise.
"Julia? Roberts and Albert? Finny's performance in the film is so wonderful that she must not lose to Natalie?
O Terman and John? Huckles. " ——The Los Angeles Times
"never compromise, which is also written by Adrian, also shows s è, which may not be as heavy as bones in winter, but it is extremely eye-catching." ——"Empire"
"Adrian once again proves that he deserves the title of" miracle director ". The two films are also s è ——USA Today
you know, just a few days ago, these singing media all guessed more or less that "never compromise" could not be better than "bones in winter" under the same theme, but they never expected that Adrian would film "never compromise" like this good-looking! Yes, it's very good-looking. This is the first feeling of the ordinary audience. There is no lengthy legal term explanation, no court drama in which Ji lie confronts, but there is Irene who is rude, straightforward and full of sense of justice, and ED, a lovely old man who can tolerate her. The tension of the drama is just spread out to make many people enjoy it.
Weekend box office is the best proof. 1800 hospital lines won 20 million box office in North America in three days, which may not be as good as "bones in winter", but the potential of subsequent increase is definitely much higher, let alone in the Christmas stand.
This is why many critics have changed their rhetoric to praise "never compromise". As an inspirational film, it has done a good job in telling stories, creating heroes and showing reality. Even if some people want to criticize, they still feel that they can't tell. It may be said that among the heaviness of exposing Lu's reality, "never compromise" is far less than "bones in winter", but "never compromise" of similar types is more popular with the audience, so
"If Adrian had made bones in winter in the same way as never compromise, the latter would have said more.
Frankly speaking, it's more interesting to watch the tabloid reporter about Adrian holding Julia's arm to attend the premiere of uncompromising, but sometimes, whether praise or provocation, they all connect "never compromise" with "bone in winter", and even many of them didn't compare the two films at the beginning The same is true of critics.
