    This kind of biopic of a legendary figure is actually the most difficult to make. The excellent performance of the actors is still not as charming as my own. With such a good theme, the narrative rhythm of this film is not good. The foreshadowing is too long and the editing is very confusing. Part of it is just too shocking, and Marie Colvin and all war correspondents like her deserve all the...

    In the end, you can't tell whether the war killed her or she killed herself. She has fallen into a vortex and can't extricate herself... honorable and...

    The things of the same family and genus as Lu Wei, or they are cruel, I am really sorry for the natural laws of this world. As far as the battle of Sri Lanka that took its left eye at the beginning of the film, if it weren't for China's active role in it, and let these European and American war stories that set fire to the mountain as a show, Ceylon would definitely still be a place where the long-term civil war was...

    "Private War"

    This is a biographical film. It is about the biography of the famous war correspondent Mary Colvin. Mary is a reporter for the "Sunday Times". She has conducted interviews in war-torn hotspots and was blinded by the bombing in Sri Lanka. Hence the nickname "One-eyed Woman". She also went to the...

    False political propaganda! Very hypocritical!

    I think some plots of this film are debatable, especially the Syrian part at the end, which is suspected of whitewashing the rebels. There is no justice party in the civil war, but in this movie, the party who is declared "just" by the United States is depicted as a victim, persecuted and oppressed...
