The film is a modern-day film noir in which the sardonic, ginsoaked detective contends with an odd cast of characters while tailing a mysterious, middle-aged man traveling with a Mexican boy from Chicago to Los Angeles. John Rosow is a Chicago gumshoe whose skill for cracking a case often comes with a price; he has a penchant for getting in over his head, but he never loses his cool. Contacted by influential lawyer Drexler Hewitt and asked to shadow a man who is currently en route to Los Angeles with a young boy, Rosow collects his cash and instructions from Hewitt’s gruff assistant Miss Charley, and sets out on his latest assignment. Upon arriving in Santa Monica, however, Rosow is caught off guard to learn that his objective has been updated. He is now to bring the man back to New York. For his efforts, Rosow will receive the tidy sum of a half-a-million dollars.《失踪的人》是一部优秀的剧情片影视作品,提起美国电影,人们就肯定会想到《失踪的人》,这部由诺亚·布斯切尔导演,Michael Shannon,Amy Ryan,Frank Wood,Linda Emond主演的《失踪的人》,在剧里,每一个演员出色的表演将剧中角色形象呈现得栩栩如生。无论是剧情、演员的表演还是剧中歌曲,都是该片的美妙亮点所在。真正是成为一匹黑马,创造了一个奇迹。为何这么说,我想,就连大伙们都没有想到这部剧情片会得到这样好的反响。诺亚·布斯切尔先生拼凑大家到一起创作出来一部作品,也真是缘分!所以,正是这样的团体感和强烈的自尊心,他们在电影中投入的热情,是我们难以想象的,其实失踪的人中的人物心理历程和逼人的剧情,何尝不是现实中的真实写照呢?所以,他们怀着一腔心有不甘的英雄气,用他们的实力和人情成就了这部经典的剧情片,也成就了他们自己!
