Angel of Death
Big eyes, a curly blonde hair, if you unfold a harmless smile, when the beautiful teenager on the poster makes a request to you, there should be very few people who will refuse.
In particular, this scene is almost like an oil painting.
So that when the shadow brother first saw this movie, the fresh painting style was overflowing, and he thought that he had mistakenly entered the set of the youth film, the sunshine, the young girl, the locomotive...
Unexpectedly, these are all illusions.
Calito, a 17-year-old boy with an irresistible angelic face, can almost always do whatever he wants.
Young girls are infatuated with him, and middle-aged women who still have charm are interested in him.
Even the man had to sigh at his face: "You're a bit like Marilyn. Monroe ".
But what made Brother Ying shudder was that he did nothing wrong, and in just half a year, he committed 11 murders, 1 attempted murder, 17 robberies, 1 rape, and 1 attempted rape.
Even the accomplices who committed the crime with him, he did not let go.
Even more shocking, this beautiful teenager is not a fiction.
His prototype is Argentina's most notorious murderer and the country's longest-serving criminal, who has been in prison for 46 years since his arrest in 1972.
When the convict of the crime was arrested, the Argentine people were not only shocked by his ferocity, but also by his good looks, so he was later crowned the "Angel of Death".
The archetypal character Carlos Roberto Pussey
Probably this fame that is not lost to superstars, when the Argentine director Luis When Ortega put it on the big screen, it attracted a lot of attention.
The first weekend grossed 38.6 million Argentinian pesos (about 1.39 million US dollars), which set a new record for the opening of Argentine films in Argentina.
Released for four months, it won the annual national film box office championship, defeated "Deadpool 2" and "Black Panther" and many Hollywood blockbusters, and was also selected by the country to impact the Oscar for best foreign language film.
Almodóvar, the producer of this film, I will not say anything else, the "Skin of My Habitat" that shattered the three views was from his hand.
Familiar with his style knows that he never touches uninteresting subjects, and if he does, the style of painting ... You know.
At first, Calito was just a small fight, at most over the wall to steal something, because this son is not easy to come, coupled with the puberty, parents are often only advised.
Later, there was really no way, so he was sent to a correctional institution, which is a place where juveniles who made mistakes were reformed, somewhat similar to juvenile detention centers.
There, he and Ramon did not fight and did not know each other.
Ramon invited Calito to his home, and what he served was not a delicious refreshment, but a gun.
The first time he came to the door, Ramon's father enthusiastically taught him to shoot.
Calito, who had only been pointed at by others with a gun before, experienced the thrill and excitement of shooting with a gun for the first time, and he begged if he could let himself shoot a few more rounds.
Ramon's father said that bullets were too expensive and refused him, and Calito immediately asked, "Why don't we rob a gun shop?" "
The idea was not just talk, the three men hit it off and looted a gun shop in a few days.
With the successful implementation of this plan, Calito and Ramon officially formed a crime duo, starting their path of theft and murder.
Like the rich kids in New Cop Story, they rob banks not for money, but for the thrill of that game of hunting.
The style of crime they commit in online games shows that they are still rebellious teenagers.
Calito they are the same.
The first time he shot and killed, the man's sudden action of turning on the light frightened him like a frightened bird, almost reflexively shooting.
After shooting and killing people, he only took a painting from the family's house, and before leaving, he asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
The tone was as if he hadn't fired a shot.
When he was done, he slept at home as if nothing had happened, and the stolen painting was hung on his bedside.
To put it bluntly, Calito didn't feel like he was committing a crime at all.
Robbing the jewelry store, he did not panic at all, comforted his accomplices to slowly enjoy the present, and picked up a pair of earrings to try on, posing in the mirror.
In front of the sleeping security guard, quietly pull open the chair and sit down, leisurely reading the newspaper, where there is a thief's appearance.
Entering someone else's house is like entering your own home, stealing something to give to your girlfriend as a gift, and the stolen stolen goods are hidden in the piano.
This immature approach itself shows that he is a vicious murderer and a 17-year-old teenager.
Ignorance is fearless, killing people as a game, and everything that naturally manifests itself is so casual and careless.
And this is the most frightening part of this film.
Inexplicably, neither calito nor the archetypal character Roberto Puxi in the film did not grow up in a crippled family.
On the contrary, the parents are kind, the family is well-off, the whole process of growing up is worry-free, and Roberto Puxi will go to church regularly.
If he had not committed a lot of crimes, he would have gone to school, worked, married and had children like other children of the same age, and spent the rest of his life in peace and rather than sitting on the bottom of the prison.
It is said that in the years since his imprisonment, Roberto Puxi has submitted several applications for release, but only in 2016 he was approved to leave prison for a medical examination due to physical health factors.
When the film sold well at the Argentine box office, he himself watched the film.
Dissatisfied with the film's handling of many details, Roberto Puxi sent a letter to director LouisE. Ortega sent a stash letter prohibiting the filmmakers from mentioning their names at any event.
The face of an angel, the deeds of the devil.
He thought he was just playing a game, but he didn't know that his hands were already stained with countless blood.
When the police were all over the house, waiting to arrest him one by one, he was still dancing leisurely, did he really not know what was going on outside?
Does he really not know what awaits him in the future?
No, he knew.
It's just that he thinks heaven is too boring and resolutely goes to hell!
