    Almost perfect films, not all films based on real cases can be so good. Whether it is the atmosphere of the film, the shaping of the characters by the actors, the grasp of the rhythm, the soundtrack and the lighting are almost impeccable. The 140-minute film does not feel long at all, and the psychological activities of the characters are interspersed with the storytelling, and there is a degree of relaxation. Julie's performance is really good, and I think of Philomena, who is also the subject...

    Eastwood's narrative skills in the lens made me admire to the ground, and his emotions were played between his palms. Angy has really lost her star power this time around. If it weren't for the fact that the plot was too crafty and lost my cool... five stars subjectively, four stars...

    The best Jolie I've ever seen, taking off the huge label, acting down to earth, acting really well. The film is a bit long, and the director put too much effort into the foreshadowing, and after the climax, some bridges are superfluous, and the ending is a bit vulgar. The clip is a little blunt in the two trials. The ending music and pictures are...

    Falling in love with Angelina Jolie for the first time. After seemingly unrelated lines are intertwined, the film gives people one thunder after another. The first half is desperate and depressed, and the second half is angry and unbelievable. Liked the beginning, the conversation between Mrs. Collins and her son about "father", "responsibility", "fight" and...

    I have to say that Jolie's performance method has been used in her strong heart before. This kind of story, eighty years later, still happens all the...

    It turns out that the police station of the US imperialists at that time is comparable to what China has now! Jolie finally showed good acting skills in this film, it's really not worth it to waste her talent on those action movies. Although the child was not found in the end, as Julie said in the film, it is important to have hope in the heart. The soundtrack of this film is actually composed by Clint Eastwood, and he also plays the piano. The old cowboy is so...

    The old cowboy also took pictures of his relatives. 1. Adapted from real events, it presents American society, justice, and police-community relations in the late 1920s and early 1930s. A strong mother who is obsessed with finding her children, although her struggle against the system is difficult, fortunately, there is the help of the media. Using the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) as a target of corruption is reminiscent of [LA Confidential]. 2. Dongmu's narration is as calm as ever,...

    Zhuan: You say that it is based on the United States in the 1920s and 1930s, or that it is based on China in the early 2000s. Both are established. Isn't it because the victim's family petitioned and locked up as a neuropathy? This kind of thing happens every day here, and it continues every day....

    A great mother who never gave up fighting for her son. Never provoke a fight, but will accompany to the end. The struggle is destined to require the sacrifice and awakening of some people as the premise, in order to exchange for peace and tranquility in the future. The elegant and timeless tone of the movie, as well as the red lips of Angelina Jolie, are memorable. "Being mentally ill," "violent law enforcement," and "civilian petitioning." How can we the people of the Celestial Dynasty be...

Changeling quotes

  • Christine Collins: Why would they do this?

    Rev. Gustav Briegleb: To avoid admitting they made a mistake when they brought back the wrong boy. Of course, anyone reading the newspaper with half a brain would see through it instantly. Sadly, that would exclude about half the readership of the Times. Mrs. Collins, I have made it my mission in life to bring to light all the things the LAPD wish none of us ever knew about. A department ruled by violence, abuse, murder, corruption and intimidation. When Chief Davis took over the force two years ago, he said...

    Chief James E. Davis: We will hold court against gunmen in the streets of Los Angeles. I want them brought in dead, not alive, and I will reprimand any officer who shows the least mercy to a criminal.

    Rev. Gustav Briegleb: He picked fifty of the most violent cops on the force, gave them machine guns and permission to shoot anyone who got in their way. He called them the Gun Squad. No lawyers, no trials, no questions, no suspensions, no investigations, just piles of bodies. Bodies in the morgues, bodies in the hospitals, bodies by the side of the road, and not because the LAPD wanted to wipe out crime. No. The LAPD wanted to wipe out the competition. Mayor Cryer and half the force are on the take: gambling, prostitution, bootlegging, you name it. Because once you give people the freedom to do whatever they want, as the Lord found in the Garden of Eden, they will do exactly that. This police department does not tolerate dissent or contradiction or even embarrassment. And you are in a position to embarrass them and they do not like it. They will do anything in their power to discredit you. I've seen it happen too many times to start going blind now. That's why I wanted to meet you, to let you know what you're getting yourself into and to help you fight it, if you choose to.

    Christine Collins: Reverend, I appreciate everything that you're doing and everything that you said, but I'm not on a mission. I just want my son home.

  • Dr. John Montgomery: He had two cavities that needed filling. He put up a fight, but I took care of it.

    Christine Collins: And?

    Dr. John Montgomery: Your son's upper front teeth were separated by a small tissue, a diastema. It made them sit about an eighth of an inch apart. The boy in that room has no such gap.

    Christine Collins: Can that change with age? Because that's what they're going to say.

    Dr. John Montgomery: In some cases, yes, it's possible. But the tissue between Walter's teeth prevents that from happening. You see, they can never come together without an operation to sever the tissue, and I can tell you right now that he has never had such an operation.

    Christine Collins: Would you be willing to put that officially in writing?

    Dr. John Montgomery: Pardon my language, but hell yes.
