Lance, do you think that Hardigan's ending is not suicide, but blackening. In order to protect Nancy, he started to kill innocent people... Frank's voice came from the other end of the phone excitedly, and he couldn't wait to tell what he had just said. Capture the inspiration and share it with Lance.

It has been a week since Lance took over the adaptation rights of Sin City, and many things have happened in this week, and the most exciting things are no different from Quentin Tarantino and Harvey Wayne. News of Ernstein's big fight at a party. Since it was a private party, the news was only spread in the circle without leaving any evidence,

However, Dorothy Wright told Lance very firmly that it was true, I heard that because of Harvey, Quentin missed an important work, which made him angry. I always thought that Quentin Ting is working on 'Kill Bill 2', but I've never heard of him planning other projects.

Technically, this project is Robert Rodriguez's, not Quentin's. If it was Quentin's, he would have missed it if he missed it. With his current status, there is no shortage of projects; but because it was Robert's, he missed the best time because of Quentin's relationship, which made Quentin angry. Loyalty is even more important to Quentin than women.

The Sin City project is still under strict secrecy, and no news has been leaked. The main reason is that Lance must now devote himself to the post-production of Borrowing a Knife and the script adaptation of Sin City. He needs absolute input, doesn't want any interruptions, and doesn't need Ryan Kavalaugh and the others to mess around, so Lance didn't speak, Frank didn't speak, Robert and Quentin couldn't speak, so, Not even Dorothy knew that the project she was discussing was in Lance's hands.

The excitement and excitement are only temporary. In the past week, Frank and Lance have started to work on the script. But this is obviously not an easy task. The two met and held two meetings successively, exchanging and discussing their ideas and ideas, hoping to construct the script, but the progress is still slow. bottleneck.

Lance sat in the driver's seat, less than a mile away from the place where he and Frank met, and Frank called again impatiently. It can be clearly felt that Frank is full of enthusiasm for the film adaptation, which is different from the previous stage. The strong rejection reaction formed a polar contrast.

If you say that he started to run for Congress, I think it's a little bit more interesting, just killing innocent people indiscriminately, which is too common in Sin City. Lance shook his head and rejected Frank's proposal, What's more, If you want to emphasize the story after Hardigan kills the yellow bastard, it will make the plot very long and long, and it will destroy the overall rhythm of the movie.

Frank was not discouraged, but he just thought about it seriously, What you said is also reasonable. Actually, what I mean is, let Hardigan realize the blackening after protecting Nancy...

Frank was still talking, but this caused Lance's thoughts to surge. He suddenly remembered the ending of Batman: The Dark Knight. The fact that the double-faced man committed many crimes made the double-faced man a light knight, while Batman took on all the crimes and became a dark knight, who was cast aside by people. This is not just bearing the burden of humiliation, but falling into the trap of the clown. In order to achieve justice, he defines himself as evil. This philosophical thought not only completes the whole story, but also sublimates it.

Frank apparently meant the same thing. If Lance wanted to make the ending of Sin City positive, it's actually a good choice, but the point is, Lance doesn't want to.

Frank, what do you think of this? Hardigan rescued Nancy from the yellow bastard, but was seriously injured. The yellow bastard wanted to kill Hardigan, but at this time Nancy rushed over desperately, and then she was in grief and anger. Under this, he killed the yellow bastard and smashed the yellow bastard into a pile of mud. Hardigan knew that the father of the yellow bastard would never let go of the murderer who killed his son, so Hardigan put the charges I took it on myself, and after sending Nancy away, I chose to commit suicide.

Lance's words made Frank quiet and fell into deep thought.

In the original story, Hardigan killed the yellow bastard—the yellow bastard was Roger, the son of the senator. Hardigan knew that the senator would never let the murderer go easily, so he chose to commit suicide. Cut off all the clues, let Nancy go far away, and be able to live a truly happy life. The ending of sacrificing one's life for benevolence has a strong spirit of sacrifice, which is moving.

But this ending more interprets Hardigan's love for Nancy, which does not match the tone of the Sin City story, and it is not on the same track as Lance's sin trilogy.

Now, Lance has changed the ending - Nancy's hands are also stained with sinful blood, and she is finally no longer a bright angel with white wings, but a dark angel who is gradually falling into hell; at the same time, Hardy In order to protect Nancy, Gen took the crime on himself and committed suicide in fear of crime. This is not only a sacrifice, but also a kind of despair and cruelty.

Hardigan is like Batman in The Dark Knight. In order to maintain justice, he chose to fall into darkness, but Batman still bears the heavy responsibility of justice, so he re-boarded in the third part of the series The Dark Knight Rises. reached the pinnacle. But this is not the case in Sin City. Hardigan chose to commit suicide with the name of sin, and walked into the grave with sins that did not belong to him. This definitely raised the darkness and sadness of Sin City to a level A whole new level.

So, who is left in Sin City? A bunch of whores, and a bunch of thugs, and a bunch of corrupt cockroaches. As the finale of the trilogy, Sin City ended in such a desperate way, which is obviously more meaningful.

Wow... Frank sighed involuntarily, then paused, and then exclaimed again, Wow. This sounds like a really cool idea, I need to clear my mind, I need a little time .uh, I'll call you later!

After finishing speaking, Frank hung up the phone directly, and Lance threw the phone on the passenger seat, and then fell into his own contemplation. It was just a burst of inspiration, and all thoughts were incomplete, so He needs to think about it further.

According to the definition just now, Hardigan seems to be on the side of justice again, which conflicts with the core idea of ​​defeating evil with evil constructed by Lance...

Lance remembered a movie directed by Clint Eastwood, Perfect World. During the process, a father-son relationship develops between the two, and in the end the hero dies in order to save the child.

So can Hardigan's setting be the same? He is not a good guy, he is a dirty cop/cop, there is no doubt about it, the previous definition of villainization of characters still continues, Hardigan is a criminal through and through, but in Nancy, he has found his own Conscience, and finally chose to kill for justice. Of course, he cannot be defined as a good person because of his protection of Nancy. He is still a bad person with blood on his hands, but this relationship is particularly different.

While thinking about it, Lance realized that he had arrived at his destination, Roberto's Garden—it was time for another annual family gathering.

After Lance found a parking space, he quickly got out of the car, and the enthusiastic smile of the duty manager Jack Newman soon came into view, Mr. Strelo, your good guys are waiting for your arrival. Then he took the initiative to lead the way and walked into the restaurant. Lance soon saw three men sitting around the table.

Gao Wen was gesticulating and saying something, Ian sat beside him with a smile and became the best listener, while Theo sat quietly directly opposite Ian, his eyes fell on the two people in front of him , but his hands were placed neatly on the table, and he could vaguely feel the tense muscles under the shirt, as if he was a protector, always on guard against all dangers around him.

Sorry, I'm late. Lance walked quickly to the dining table, and gave fist bumps to his three brothers, with apologetic smiles on their faces.

You must have forgotten the time again because of work. Gawain said jokingly, pointing his index fingers at Lance like two pistols.

Lance raised his hands cooperatively, I plead guilty. The helpless gesture of surrender combined with the innocent look in his eyes immediately made Gawain laugh happily, and even Jack, who was standing by the side, couldn't help but laugh.

Ian turned his head and looked at Jack, We can start serving. By the way, please give us a glass of honey water.

Jack took a step back and nodded politely. He knew that this glass of honey water was specially for Lance.

Lance sat down next to Theo, and cast his gaze a little guilty, You know I didn't do it on purpose... Theo's mouth slightly twitched, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he shook his head, Work There is always a reason, isn't there? The cold words immediately turned Lance's expression into a bitter face, and he raised his hand again in a gesture of surrender with a slight frown, You know there will be a next time.

These words made Theo roll his eyes speechlessly, Then why do you explain? After speaking, he put a small candy basket in front of Lance.

The expression on Lance's face couldn't help but blossomed. He reached out and took a candy, peeled off the wrapping paper skillfully, threw it into his mouth, and then said, So, what were you talking about just now?

Gao Wen said that there was a newcomer in the team. He was late for training because he was attending a party. All the coaching staff already knew about it, but he still opened his eyes and lied. As a result, he was directly kicked into the training group. Ian said a few words and put Gao Wen Wen Na's long speech has been summed up, and it's over in an understatement.

Lance pursed his lips and retracted his jaw, Oh.

Gao Wen's eyes widened, The process is much more exciting than this, okay! The thing is like this...
