卢丹的恶魔

　　Erstwhile Special Forces operative Doc Alexander is asked to broker a truce with the Mexican drug cartel in secrecy. When Oklahoma Governor Richard Jeffs celebrates the execution of a high-ranking cartel member on TV, his Chief of Staff and Doc inform him about the peace he just ended. But it’s too late, as Cuco, the cartel’s hatchet man, has set his vengeful sights on Doc’s daughter Dixie.
　　They don’t make ’em like Little Dixie anymore: honed to the bone, all gestures and actions, only a few words. Too many genre films these days try to create meaning by piling ideas and intentions on their narrative frames. John Swab, as always, works the other way around. Meaning and depth come from taking away whatever is superfluous – by reducing the plot to its bare essence and the characters to their core trades and tricks.
　　Ultimately, Little Dixie feels like the pulp fiction version of a Giacometti sculpture, all fearful symmetries and mirror images. A gem of crime cinema at its purest and most philosophical, proudly featuring noir’s new darling, Frank Grillo.

　　少年不知愁滋味。某地红杉森林正在举行一个露天音乐会，青年男女聚在一起笑语欢歌，醉生梦死。一伙嬉皮士偷偷潜入森林腹地，打算举行一个以海洛因和大麻为主题的周末狂欢派对。他们的喧嚣吵醒了居住在林中的老妇人，这个戴着里根面具的妇人向嬉皮士们展开血腥追杀……
