CITY HEAT




The movie begins with a rainy night in a popular diner. Speer who is a policeman comes in to have a coffee and Murphy who is detective comes on there as well but Murphy has fighting with 2 men and he also asked help from Speer. Then, he thanks to him that can save his life.
Both Speer and Murphy have eyes for Murphy's beautiful secretary Addy and she feel good with both. After that, Murphy finds a new romance girl who named Caroline but he found that he can not commit with her because of his attraction to Addy before.Next, Speer and Addy go to a boxing match of Pitt and Murphy's partner who is Swift, he is also there. Then, Swift is in possession of a briefcase whose contents are the secret of Pitt's gang after that Swift died. As a result make Murphy want to revenge on Pitt and Murphy also asked Speer to be his assistance to get rid of Pitt and his gangs that always take over the city. So, Speer agrees with him.

For this movie, I feel that the plot story is quite good as action movie but some character play as comedy movie. So, it is interesting to watch but actually, I love the style of movie like A River runs through it more that this movie because I don’t like action movie so, I may be tell the summary not well.

For the American culture that I have found, there are some characteristic that look like cruelty and always use gun to fighting.

A river runs through it


This movie is the real story that the director bring to tell anyone. The movie tells the story about two boys since they were young until they got old.

The story is about two boys that they have a strictly father who has duty in the Church. The father is a person who has a rule to control yourself and his sons with seriously. First of all, Father always teach his sons to fishing at the main river of their town since they were young and also make them love to fishing as it was their life. Boys always stay together and they love with each other very much. After that boys grow up in every day and they get separate from each other because of their work. Norman has to go to another town for high education and Paul stay at the hometown to college. One day, when they graduated, they have the work in different way. Norman was a professor and Paul was a newspaperman. However, both Paul and Norman were busy but they still have a time to fishing together at the same river. Next, Norman fell in love with some girls at the party and he try to get closer with her. He would like to get her as a girlfriend so he attempts to do anything for reach her heart and then he can do it.

On the other hand, Paul was a popular man in his hometown and his parents seem to love Paul more than Norman. Paul looks like a playboy and he always go to the Lolo that have bad girls as well as gamble in there. Next, Norman got a call from Police station to obtain the bad news about his brother that he died. Then, Norman goes back to home and tell the parents about this bad news. Mother can not accept the news and Father asked to Norman about the cause of Paul’s death. Norman tells him that he fell from the alley and got the hurt at his right hand but Father did not believe that he died only this cause. Norman knows that Father want to know more about this but Norman can not tell because he know only this cause as well.

The movie end up with the face of the real person of this story who is Norman at that he is fishing and also thinks of his brother at the same river. Finally, river is all memories between Norman and Paul when they have their life together.

For the American culture that I have found in this movie, there are the characteristic and behavior of the Father that he has the own rule to control his sons to be a good and excellent persons. Another one are the things that have different in the present time such as telephone, car, and dress.

For this movie, I think the story is very classic movie and it can make me feel impressive as well as happy to watch it because the telling of the movie is very beautiful and all the scenes is very attractive. So, I love this movie so much.
