影片简介:The Departed 无间道风云
The Departed is an Academy Award-winning 2006 film directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen, and Alec Baldwin. A remake of the popular 2002 Hong Kong crime thriller Infernal Affairs by Andrew Lau and Siu Fai Mak, the film's screenplay was adapted by William Monahan from the original script written by Felix Chong and Siu Fai Mak.
The film takes place in Boston, Massachusetts, where Irish mob boss Frank Costello implants Colin Sullivan as an informant within the Massachusetts State Police. Simultaneously, the police assign Billy Costigan to infiltrate Costello's crew. When both sides of the law realize the situation, the two men are dispatched to discover each other's identities.
The film was a critical and commercial success, ultimately grossing over $132 million in the United States, $286 million worldwide and receiving four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for Martin Scorsese, which was the first win of his career.
Plot
The movie begins in the 1970s in South Boston during the Boston race riots, when Irish mob boss Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson) takes very young Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon) under his wing preparing him to be a mole for his crew. Years later, the audience finds Sullivan training for the Massachusetts State Police, with classmates, including Barrigan (James Badge Dale). Brown (Anthony Anderson) and Billy Costigan (Leonardo Dicaprio) are similar classmates on another class. Meanwhile, the cool and collected Captain Oliver Queenan (Martin Sheen) and the aggressive and foul mouthed Staff Sergeant Dignam (Mark Wahlberg) of the Undercover Division assign Costigan to infiltrate Costello's crew.
Costigan and Dignam.Sullivan is soon promoted to the Special Investigation Unit (SIU) headed by the humorous Captain Ellerby (Alec Baldwin). Costigan gains notice of Costello and becomes a member of his crew. Meanwhile, Sullivan begins a romantic relationship with criminal psychiatrist Madolyn Madden (Vera Farmiga), who is also having sessions with Costigan as a part of his probation for assault. Unknown to Sullivan, Costigan begins a relationship with Madolyn.
During one of his heists, Costello, through Sullivan, discovers that there is a police informer in his organization. In order to catch the insider, he requires each member of his organization to fill in his particulars in a form, including social security numbers. Costigan (the insider) knows that this envelope will end up at the hands of Costello's man in the police. He follows Costello (who has the envelope) into a porno theater, where he witnesses Costello handing over the envelope to the police mole (Sullivan), whose face is hidden in the dark theater. In order to discover the mole's identity, Costigan shadows him into the streets, only to lose him.
Meanwhile, Sullivan is assigned to uncover the mole in SIU, who is, of course, himself. This makes for some tension between Sullivan and Dignam, who accuses Sullivan of being the mole in the SIU. Above suspicion, he focuses instead on finding the police snitch in Costello's crew.
In the interests of finding the undercover agent in Costello's crew, Sullivan orders the SIU to follow Queenan, eventually following him to a meeting of Queenan and Costigan on the rooftop of a run-down building. Sullivan tells Costello's men that the snitch is at the building. As Costello's men approach, Costigan is able to flee, but Queenan is captured, and thrown off the building to his death.
The letter "X" appears at various points throughout the film as a homage to Scarface[citation needed]At the police precinct, a fist fight breaks out between Dignam and Sullivan over Queenan's death. Sullivan orders Dignam to hand over the information on his undercover, which Dignam refuses. Ellerby, who takes over for Queenan, orders Dignam off duty with pay for two weeks. Still trying to find the police mole in Costello's crew, Sullivan calls Costigan with Queenan's phone pretending to be the new agent assigned to the latter's case. A few days later, Costello and his crew are tailed to an old warehouse where they aim to retrieve drugs. When Costello demands it, Sullivan disengages the tails and instead sets up a police ambush at the scene. Costello's entire crew is killed in the ensuing shoot-out, Costigan slips away; Costello also escapes only to be confronted by Sullivan himself. Costello confirms that he is a FBI informant, after which Sullivan shoots and kills him.
Back at the station, Costigan finds incriminating evidence on Sullivan's desk and flees. Costigan later sends Sullivan recordings of Sullivan and Costello's conversations, with a phone number. Madolyn hears one of these recordings and ends her relationship with Sullivan. Sullivan calls the phone number and speaks to Costigan, who reveals to Sullivan that Costello was the source of the recordings, which Costello kept as insurance to use as a possible legal immunity if he was arrested. They arrange to meet.
Trooper Brown confronts CostiganOn the rooftop where Queenan was killed, a hysterical Costigan confronts and handcuffs Sullivan. Trooper Brown appears and Costigan takes Sullivan hostage while Brown tries to talk Costigan down. Costigan tells Brown that Sullivan is the mole and has proof before fleeing into an elevator with Sullivan. The elevator stops, and just as Costigan leaves the elevator backup trooper Barrigan shoots and kills Costigan, and then kills Trooper Brown. Barrigan reveals to Sullivan that he is the second mole in the Massachusetts State Police, and that they need to work together. As Barrigan is manipulating the crime scene Sullivan shoots Barrigan. Sullivan later blames everything on Barrigan and recommends Costigan for the Medal of Merit for supposedly saving his life.
Sullivan attends Costigan's funeral, where a tearful Madolyn shuns him. Much later, Sullivan returns home to find Dignam waiting in his apartment, who shoots him dead and leaves. As the film ends, the camera pans out and a lone rat crawls across the balcony railing, silhouetted against the gold dome of the Massachusetts State House.
