One winter twenty-six years ago, two boys who skipped school were hanging out in the mall. By chance, a two-year-old boy wearing a sky blue coat and a white scarf walked into their sight.
is him, they decided to kill him. The appearance of the idea of
is as simple and casual as picking up a piece of candy. The two boys who exuded murderous aura were only 10 years old.
This is the murder of James Bulger that shocked the world on February 12, 1993.
Irish director Vincent Lambe (Vincent Lambe) compiled and shot a short film-"Detention" based on the interrogation records of the real case at the time. The whole film only takes 30 minutes, without any bloody scenes, tells this creepy story. The director presents the crime and trial of the two murderers, Robert Thompson and Jon Venables. This short film was nominated for the best live-action short film at the 91st Academy Awards.
At the beginning of the film, Robert and Jon, like all rebellious teenagers who played truant, opened the store’s toys, batteries, and candies into their pockets, and then they were thrown out by the angry clerk under the collar. The only thing
shows that they are different from other children is their desire for destruction. Jon threw a plastic model from a height. When the doll fell to the ground, they showed weird smiles. What
intersects with all this is the scene of the interrogation room. Robert and Jon walked through the dim corridors to the interrogation room and were questioned by the police.
Robert denied the fact of the murder throughout the whole process and pushed all the crimes to Jon. During the
process, he only cared about two things-whether the dead boy was broken in two and could not be saved; whether the train just passed by the window was not. Robert
in the
film and Jon in the other interrogation room use his underage status to hope to win sympathy. Facing the identity of the suspect, he panicked, rushed into the arms of the police and wept, and even beat his father, hoping to stop the interrogation. Of course, he will not admit that he is the murderer, repeating over and over again: Robert hit him! I've never! (Robert hit him, I did not!)
Jon
in the film is engaged in location, actor costume and The moves are highly restored to the real case. And its cruel part is also here. The audience can't even comfort themselves after watching it-it's just a short film, it's fake.
