When it comes to Spain, the first editor will think of the song "Madrid Incredible".
Now, the editor will first think of the Spanish films that have stood out with suspense in recent years.
A series of suspense films such as "The Invisible Guest", "Mirage", "Dark Side" and so on are stimulated and reversed layer by layer.
As netizens commented, there is a kind of crime suspense, called Spanish crime suspense film.
Recently, there is another Spanish crime suspense film worth looking forward to.
After reading it, the editor's feeling is that the story is tense and exciting, the reversal is wonderful and brain-burning, and the ending is warm.
"The End of the Tunnel"
At The End Of The Tunnel
Argentina, Buenos Aires, rainy season.
The male protagonist, Joaquin, is a programmer who lives alone.
His life was as lifelike as the rain outside, lifeless and gray.
Half paralyzed, in debt, he lives alone in a large, lifeless house, accompanied only by a dying old dog.
Forced to make ends meet, he decided to rent out his extra room.
It didn't take long for the tenants to arrive, and a mother and daughter came to rent an apartment.
It's just that the mother and daughter look stranger.
Mother Porta is sexy and beautiful, warm and generous. Daughter Betty is lonely and autistic and does not like to talk.
Not only did they not call to make an appointment in advance, but they took the liberty of renting a house.
And it is not necessary to move in on the same day.
After checking in, the beautiful mother did not idle, and did not regard herself as an outsider at all.
Wearing a small vest and miniskirt all day long, he greeted Joaquin and helped him sort out his books and clean his room.
He also prepared a birthday party for Joaquin on the balcony, not only performing sexy hot dances for him, but also confessing to Joaquin that I know you like me.
The male protagonist also slowly changed from the initial indifference to gentleness.
Because before that, he hadn't been on the balcony for many years.
In this way, the three of them lived a peaceful life together until they were broken by the faint noise next door.
The male protagonist listened curiously, this listening was unbearable, there was actually a group of people next door who were digging tunnels to plan to rob the bank.
What surprised him even more was that Porta was actually the girlfriend of the leader of the group, and Porta came to rent a house not by accident at all, but to spy on himself.
Next door is a gang ready to rob the bank, inside the house is to monitor their own internal line, in the face of this situation, normal people will usually call the police.
However, the male protagonist had a bold idea, using the tunnel dug by the gang to rob the bank in advance in front of them.
Thus, a game of "black eating black" began.
"The End of the Tunnel" Douban score 7.2, directed by Rodrigo Grande. The main cast of the movie is not unfamiliar to everyone.
The male protagonist Leonardo Spalaglia, starring in "Wild Story", ranked among the TOP250 Douban movies.
Played the "boyfriend" of the male protagonist in the 19-year Cannes hit film "Pain and Glory".
The heroine, Clara Lago, has starred in another Spanish suspense film, The Dark Side.
"The End of the Tunnel" tells a very old story, the male protagonist accidentally found a group of thieves digging a tunnel near the bank to steal money from the safe, and then cut off the beard.
But the old-fashioned story adds something new.
First of all, in the setting of the character, the male protagonist is not a normal person, but a disabled leg.
And he is even more determined to fight bandits with one enemy and many enemies.
Faced with the contrast between the strength and weakness of the disparity in strength, the story is immediately full of suspense and excitement.
Although the male protagonist is paralyzed in both legs, he is an uncompromising technical coffee, with a super high IQ and super forced power.
Drawing and measuring, modification of mechanisms, drilling holes, eavesdropping records, recording analysis, simulation exercises...
One person formed a team.
At the same time, the character image of the male protagonist is also worth talking about.
Unlike the protagonist of many wit robbers, he is not a wei Guangzheng character, and two details can be seen.
First he discovered the robbers' actions and instead of wanting to call the police, he chose to listen to their action plans.
When he witnessed the thief brutally disposing of an accomplice suspected of being a spy, he was so frightened that he subconsciously picked up the phone, but he hesitated when he pressed the alarm number.
If the former action is the instinct to survive, the latter action is survival under the balance of desire and conscience.
Here, there is no absolute opposition between black and white, and everyone is sinking and struggling in the vortex of desire.
As a chamber crime suspense movie, "The End of the Tunnel" has only three scenes - Joaquin's house, the robber's rented next door house, and a tunnel.
Three places form a triple confined space, and all the contradictions and conflicts in the film are magnified again and again through the small space.
It not only creates a suffocating atmosphere, makes the drama tense, but also makes the film more visual and psychological impact, and enhances the audience's pleasure of watching the movie.
In particular, Joaquin and the robbers met in the narrow road in the tunnel, which was simply high-energy and exciting.
The editor who watched it all mentioned the throat eyes, and across the screen, the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
Just like the comments of netizens: nervous and exciting, ups and downs, it is simply a secret room version of "Eavesdropping Storm".
The reason why Spanish suspense films are good is that it is reversed and reversed.
"The End of the Tunnel" carries forward this fine tradition, maintaining a speed of reversal every five minutes, constantly refreshing the audience's cognition.
And more reversals means more foreshadowing hidden in the film.
Euthanasia cookies for dogs, watches for the robbers who disappeared, notes from the male protagonist when he was listening...
These seemingly insignificant details together form a centripetal force that leads to the ending, and then detonates the reversal point at the end of the film, allowing the audience to enter the climax of the movie.
The many foreshadowings buried increase the scrutiny of the rationality of the storyline, but such a detailed arrangement also makes the development rhythm of the story too slow, making people feel tired that the process is too long and the climax is too short.
This is also the point that "The End of the Tunnel" makes the editor feel amazing enough.
But what impressed the editor more in the film was not the resourcefulness of the male protagonist and the thrilling duel with the robbers, but the small warmth hidden under the criminal conspiracy.
The male protagonist, Joaquin, once had a happy and beautiful family, but a car accident caused him to lose his wife, daughter and legs.
From then on, his life, like his legs, was crumbling and decadent.
At this time, the young mother and daughter appeared, knowing that their intentions were not friendly, but the male protagonist still chose to accept.
Because he was so lonely, and their arrival made the house laugh and warmed his life.
So when he saw the dying dog stand up again, he hid his face and wept.
Isn't this dog the man himself, who can't stand up when he is suppressed by life.
And he's been stuck in the tunnels of life for too long.
This time he was going to get up again and live again.
Because he knew that at the end of the tunnel this time, there was hope and love.
