Not everything is as it seems. What is easy can be difficult and what is difficult can be easy.
An old man, weaving through traffic, is in a hurry to prove his young wife unfaithful. I do not welcome infidelity between couples when the option of separation is on the sidelines, but I am not so unscrupulous that I want them to die. But there is always the possibility of murder in infidelity between couples.
The film Fracture was released in 2007 and was the scene of Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling's cat and mouse game. You can consider what I wrote above as the plot of the film because they contain the opening scene of the film.
Many things can be said about Anthony Hopkins, but in general terms, I choose to remain silent and stay within the boundaries of the film. In his role, he plays Ted Crawford, a cold-blooded and intelligent character. Ted is the victimised husband who is cheated on, but punishes his wife instantly. There is no mystery at the beginning of the film because right at the beginning of the film Ted points a gun and shoots his wife in an attempt to kill her. He thinks his wife is dead. He confesses to the police who come to the house and hands over the murder weapon!
So far, it can be seen as a simple crime, a simple case and a detective film, but forget the above, and if you don't forget it, the film will make you forget it because the flow of events that seem to be over is actually just beginning.
Willy Beachum (played by Ryan Gosling) is a successful lawyer with a 97% winning rate and is about to start working in another law firm. How hard can a murder case with the above confession be for such a career lawyer?
This is where the cat and mouse game between the two starts. I'm not talking about the cat and mouse games in Tom and Jerry. lol. The dialogues between them, their attempts to refute each other's evidence, and the moves that require superior intelligence ensure that the needle that will show the winner constantly changes direction.
The film has a good reflection on watching the film carefully, I had the feeling that I should watch it more carefully in a way I can't understand how. While looking for evidence like looking for a needle in a haystack, sometimes we also see attempts to produce evidence from the parties. The ethics of this is questionable, and some of the characters do so as well.
For Ryan Gosling, starring in the same film with Anthony Hopkins has undoubtedly been a great pleasure and luck. However, it has been the biggest disadvantage to be compared with Anthony Hopkins' performance in the role because although Ryan Gosling is successful, Anthony Hopkins' performance ensures that all attention is on him. One is a big plane tree and the other looks like a sapling trying to grow in its shadow.
You can watch Fracture without getting bored, I can give full marks to the film in terms of the beginning and the continuation of the story, but after the clever confrontations, there seemed to be something missing in the binding of the film. For example, when Ted denied that he was the one who shot his wife, no one asked or questioned why he didn't call the police despite the time that had passed. While a lot of evidence was cleverly refuted, such a simple mistake was remarkable.
And it was interesting how one bullet could kill two people! My favourite scene was the genius of removing the murder weapon from the house.

Two great actors in one movie, and I didn't watch it, what a shame. I must make up for it soon and watch it! Thank you for a very interesting post.

Thank you, it's actually a film I'm late to watch. In some periods of our lives, when we are busy with different jobs, we can miss some beauties. So I wish you a good time during normal and viewing.
