``The Gentlemen'' Everyone has grown up since then. “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” like 20 years later

PAGES


Conversation plays are all about the action of words, characters and lines.



The great appeal of Guy Ritchie's screenplay lies in its elaborate dramatic structure and the pleasure of vividly converging foreshadowing. As I mentioned earlier, the attention to structure in ``The Gentlemen'' is clear, and although I won't say much about it, the way it handles foreshadowing is as brilliant as ever. What makes this story unfold are the characters, another charm of Guy Ritchie's works.


The characters that appear are all addicts, and their characters stand out from the moment they first appear. The writing and production of characters that instantly capture the audience's heart or make them wary is a ``promise'' that has been consistent from ``Rock, Stock~'' to the present. Dramas that highlight the relationships between men are also a key point, and this style has been carried over to the " Sherlock Holmes " series (2009-11) and the live-action version of " Aladdin " (2019), and of course, the original screenplay for "The Gentlemen" It will have a strong scent.


“Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” trailer


Since Fletcher's narration drives the entire movie, the most important thing is the dialogue. Hugh Grant, who plays Fletcher, who speaks for almost the entire film, spent several months memorizing a huge number of lines. The conversations between the characters are carefully crafted, and the dialogue is varied, with the F-word popping out amidst the graceful delivery of words, and the characters' delicate inner lives and dark humor oozing out. Guy Ritchie was constantly rewriting the script during filming, and Matthew McConaughey, who plays Mickey, said he felt the words come alive with each revision. He boasts of a rich career and goes so far as to say, ``His lines were delicious and on a different level from the roles he has played before.''


It was millionaire Matthew Matthew who said of Guy Ritchie's lines, ``His poetic language, the musicality and sharpness of a play.It's like a stage play, like Oscar Wilde or Noel Coward.'' Jeremy Strong in the role. This comment touches on the core of this work, and the exchange of lines that unfolds has an action-like feel to it. In fact, most of the action and violence in this film occur when people's tensions reach their peak. Until then, the children perform verbal actions while listening to each other's responses, so you can thoroughly enjoy the conversation between adults. You can tell from the quote from William Shakespeare's `` The Merchant of Venice '' at the climax that everything is exactly as Guy Ritchie intended.

In this film, all the actors are naturally attractive. Matthew McConaughey, who plays Mickey, combines the composure of an adult with a maniac inside. Charlie Hunnam, who plays the role of Ray, shows off his calm and collected demeanor with something on his mind. Henry Golding, who played Dry Eye, betrayed his image with a mysterious performance that resembled Benicio del Toro in "Snatch." Colin Farrell, who plays Coach, fully demonstrates his tired coolness and sense of humor, and Hugh Grant, who plays Fletcher, tells the story with a Monster style that erases his past as the "king of romantic comedies." Tow.


Strong said, ``Once we found the core tone, it was free and fun. He allowed us to do theatrical things and try things off-script,'' and Farrell said, ``Guy... "Ritchie's films have riffs. They react to each other, like jazz, and the sounds resonate together." The joy of the ensemble play that shines throughout is probably due to the chemical reaction between Ritchie's script and direction and the talented cast.
