Chapter 286： Chasing the murderer in the night

On the white paper surface, black ink dripped down, showing the font, then fainted and disappeared.

The white fibers were soaked with red to black liquid, which penetrated all the white fibers, and the thick blood stained until all the white fibers turned black.

A large piece of iceberg, clusters of fibrous clumps of crystal clear blood dripped onto the white cotton cloth, turning red in patches. When the camera was pulled, the blood was dripping on the cuffs. The hands wearing plastic gloves were trying hard to wipe the blood from the cuffs, completely covering the red color.

Just the opening chapter made the audience feel a little dizzy, but the appearance of the blood drop brought some doubts and opened the prelude to the movie.

Evan Bell was sitting next to Christopher Nolan, and on his right was Robin Williams who interrupted further communication between Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan. "Chris, amazing." This is Evan Bell's comment on the opening. Christopher Nolan smiled without saying a word, just moved the corner of his mouth, and his eyes did not leave the big screen.

The film begins to tell the story in Evan Bell's old eyes, to be precise, Will Domo's eyes. Just a pair of eyes, closed eyes twice, and a touch of fatigue in the bottom of the eyes seems to be meaningful.

The film unfolds in a slightly slow and heavy atmosphere. It seems like a simple story. Old-fashioned police detective Will Domo travels to the Alaska town of Knightswood to help investigate a teenage murder. The progress of the plot is also normal. As soon as Will got off the plane, he went to the police station to listen to the progress of the investigation, observed the corpse, and began to speculate the details of the murder from the details of the corpse.

The search in the deceased's room found some clues that could be pursued by the gods, and Will Domo asked to go to the school to chat with the deceased girl's classmates. However, female police detective Elì stopped him because "it's ten o'clock, night."

Will Yiduomo stood by the window and the sun was shining brightly outside the window, and compared to Elì's sentence "ten o'clock in the evening", it seemed a bit dark and humorous. Many people in the cinema laughed lightly. This is Alaska, in the polar season of the year, where the sun never sets.

During the dinner between Will Domo and his colleague Happ, the audience discovered that Will Domo himself was in trouble at this time. Will Domo captured a suspect in a case in Los Angeles who had to fabricate false evidence to convict him. The matter has been investigated by the Department of the Interior. Before coming to Alaska, Happ was summoned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three hours, but there was no news for the time being. But Harp thinks he should tell the truth to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is also good for Will, but Will does not think so. Because Will believes that compromising with the Ministry of Internal Affairs means the criminals will go unpunished.

As the evidence reveals that Will-Domo is gradually approaching the suspect in the girl's murder case: at the same time, the dispute between Will and his colleague Happ has also heated up.

Will and Harp use an exhibit to lure the suspect to the hut where the crime happened. They followed the criminal to a beach full of rocks and mist, but the criminal suddenly disappeared into the mist. The suspect shot and wounded another detective next to Will, and Will struggled to catch up. In the vast fog, the suspect escaped from Will's sight. Will saw a figure in the fog, he pulled the trigger and a gunshot sounded, and the figure was in a pool of blood.

Will took a closer look and found that the person who was hit by him was actually Hap!

"Do you want to kill me?" Happ's words put the movie into a completely different tone.

When Will fired in the white fog, he might not have seen the other's face clearly, but at least he could see the other side's outline, that is, his height and size. As an outgoing detective, Will has shown his observance before, so in the fog, did he still choose to shoot after judging that the other party was his partner? Or is Will's judgment already starting to lose focus due to the extreme daylight in Alaska?

At this time, in addition to the teenage murder case, the second main line of the film surfaced. Will shot and killed Happ. Was it to kill or unintentionally? By the end, even Will himself couldn't tell.

Will kills Happ by mistake, and with guilt and the influence of polar day, he falls into insomnia for days on end. Auditory hallucinations, hallucinations, anxiety, fear, he swayed between sobriety and vagueness, but the truth about the manslaughter of Hap was mysteriously concealed by him. Mistake, from this moment on the road of no return that can't be turned back.

In the fog, the criminal saw what Will was doing, and he called Will in the middle of the night to blackmail Will over this matter. The confrontation between Will and the criminal on the phone was full of tension.

Will found clues to the criminal in the evidence left by the deceased, namely the reclusive novelist Walter Fentz, who hurried to Walter's home. Will and Walter launched a fierce chase, and the tension of confrontation reached its peak. Will and Walter started chasing from the hut and ran all the way to the river. The chase on the driftwood on the river surface made Will's bottomless physical violence come out, and he stumbled. Will fell to the bottom of the river.

The driftwood drifting on the river blocked all the gaps that surfaced, Will struggled under the water, the deep blue water, the rumbling of the bubbles and the collision of the driftwood, between the thin intervals of the driftwood. The cold and cold light outside made the tense emotions of all the audience reach their peak. Not to mention the capture of Walter, whether Will can escape from this terrible **** is still unknown.

Finally, the stairs down the pier brought a glimmer of light. Will firmly grasped the stairs, and the whole person finally surfaced, savoring the fresh air. Exhausted, Will stood up and looked back. Sly Walter was standing by the river looking back, escaping from Will's sight in a hurry.

When Will returned to Walter's house again, the recording phone rang, Walter calmly analyzed the development of the situation with him on the phone, and demanded an agreement with Walter, that is, the two would not expose each other.

Will and Walter meet on the ferry!

Walter is like a wily demon, holding a bargaining chip that Will can't refuse, and will lead Will into the abyss of sin step by step. This is also the most brilliant head-to-head confrontation between Walter and Will in the entire movie. After the two sides tore off their disguise masks, they project their psychological weaknesses on each other: there is only a thin line between evil and good, just like the positive and negative sides of a coin.

At this moment, all the audience's emotions of sympathy and disgust jumped, and the movie's ** was dialed to the highest point here. The confrontation between Walt and Will released all the secrets in their hearts. It seems that the murderers have their own reasons, which are worthy of sympathy from a rational point of view, and intolerant from a moral point of view.

In the end, Will was captured by Walter and fell into Walter's control. Will's symptoms of insomnia became more and more serious. While he was deeply remorseful for his behavior, he helped him again and again for fear of failure. Finz, cover up the facts from each other.

More than half of the film, the murderer has already come out, but obviously, the film has entered another rhythm from the plot of solving the case, the psychological level of wits and courage, and the case-handling process has been replaced by various acts of covering up the crime. The abyss of sin requires the loss of justice and the annihilation of human beings as nourishment, and the blooming flowers of human beings can bloom. The confrontation between Will and Walter, the confrontation between Will and Insomnia, and the confrontation between Will and the sense of justice in his heart make the movie sublime from a simple case-solving story to a deep level of deliberate setting by Christopher Nolan.

At this point, the culprit of the murder, the means of committing the crime, and the psychological analysis of the perpetrator are no longer important. The loss of principle and the sense of justice that the film's theme shows, as well as the confusion of people under professional ethics and self-confidence, surfaced.

At this time, the female police officer Elì of Knight Curtain was getting closer to the truth. She slowly found clues from Will's deeds, and she also began to approach the real murderer, Walter, step by step.

Regarding Will's insomnia, Elì said that "a good policeman can't sleep because of his duty to do business, and a bad policeman can't sleep because of his conscience." This sentence is the policeman that Elli admires the most. 〗 Cha Weier did not say anything. But at this time, Will couldn't remember what he had said before. He has already started a deal with the devil and there is no turning back.

Every confrontation between Will and Walter is so tense, and Will, who is still struggling with his conscience and insomnia, is on the verge of collapse at any time. This also stretched the spirit of all the audience at the scene to the extreme, and it may break at any time due to Will's outbreak.

However, when Elì found evidence, the deceased's boyfriend Randy became a scapegoat through Will and Walter's design. The case was over, and Will could create a **** and return to Los Angeles.

At this time, the blood dripping on the cuff at the beginning of the film also revealed the mystery, that is, when Will Domo was in Los Angeles, he fabricated false evidence in order to convict the suspect.

At the moment of leaving, Elì went to Walter to get the letter from the deceased. Will was suddenly alarmed that something was wrong and rushed to Walter's hut. When he arrived, Elì had already been knocked out by Walter. When the two were arguing, Elì woke up from the stupor and heard their conversation, and the situation became chaotic Walter Defeat Will and escape from the hut.

And Will, who stayed in the hut, was very ashamed under Elì's questioning.

Inside the house, Walter picked up a shotgun and attacked the two. Will gave his gun to the female police officer, and both died in the confrontation with Walter.

At the end of the film, Elì looked at Will in pain, facing the good police officer she admired very much, and was about to throw away the evidence that could make a **** accuse Will of shooting Happ, but was killed by the dying threat. Er refused, he told Elì to stick to his principles, and then in peace and contentment, he finally closed his eyes, got rid of insomnia, and slept in this small town.

"The good policeman can't sleep because of his duty to do business, the bad policeman can't sleep because of the torture of his conscience" Will finally "falls asleep" because he chooses to stick to his own principles and not let the devil go unpunished. After all, he closed his eyes as a good policeman.

But at the same time, Will shot Happ, whether it was a mistake or deliberate, he didn't give an answer until the end, which also left all the audience feeling sleepy.
