    The lineup is familiar and still very young. There were so many tragic things that happened to the type of problem in those days. I don't understand how these people can do it. Can they do such cruel acts, are they all...

    Look at what Django knows Mississippi is the harshest place in America. Just came across something like this. This kind of injustice was treated so seriously in the 1960s? Where does white superiority come from? They are now, too, crying when they saw the black father in the middle being hanged, the son came back to report to his father that his family was all right, and called his father not to die. Education, inheritance, whoever understands when I was a child, is all taught. What use do you...

    Alan Parker's movies always have two sides of the word, and your position determines how much you like the movie. Foreigners can only take a neutral attitude towards racial issues in the United States. In this realistic film, we can see the real human rights issues in the American countryside from a certain point of view in a certain era, but reality does not mean comprehensiveness. The description of the black crime problem seems to have only one line of dialogue, so your position...

    The film won the 61st Academy Award for Best Cinematography and was nominated for Best Picture, Director, Actor, Supporting Actress, Editing and Sound. It's a really heartwarming, heartwarming film. Those who open their mouths and shut their mouths about Christ, but do killing, maiming, intimidating, and discriminating are the real demons. And those who ignore this happening are accomplices! Discriminating against others is actually a sign of lack of self-confidence and...

    It has been pressed in the hard disk for almost ten years... It is actually a new HD version... Several major turning points are very exciting. And a model about the general trend - the people are completely suppressed by the county, but when the central force is suppressed, the county is powerless to fight...

    Two white FBI policemen help black people to defend their rights in the American theme movie. The narrative style of the movie is progressive, and the actors' performances are remarkable. It is a pity that the main characters are shaped in a genre, but it is difficult to make new ideas on this theme. There is a sonorous BGM in the movie, which appears every five minutes on average, and the sound of the movie is still circling in my head after watching the movie. PS Dafoe looked like Huang...

    When Dafoe and Hackman first entered Mississippi, one had the enthusiasm of a young man, and the other had the sophistication and calmness of an older generation. The former was obviously leading the latter, but as the plot developed, their attitudes changed rapidly, the former was calm, The latter's work style becomes more and more crazy as his investment in the case increases, and gradually replaces the former as the core of the investigation team. This process is exactly the process in which...

Mississippi Burning quotes

  • Anderson: [after the altercation with Ward where Ward pulled his gun on Anderson] Do you think he would have shot me?

    Agent Bird: Oh, yes sir.

    Anderson: Ballsy little bastard, isn't he?

  • Anderson: [Anderson is in a barbershop, shaving Clinton's face with a razor blade and simultaneously interrogating him] This is tricky. They make it look so easy, don't they? I got a question for you, Clinton. You don't mind if I call you Clinton, do you? I feel like I know you so well. The way we have it, on the night of the murders... you made a short speech as the bulldozer buried the kids in the dam. How does Lester tell it? "Mississippi will be proud of you. You've struck a blow for the white man." Is that what you said, Clinton? Hm? Is that what you said? It must've been you... because Clayton Townley and Ray Stuckey, they were too smart to be there. And you was too stupid to think anybody'd remember what you had to say. But old Lester, he got a good memory.

    [Anderson groans as he accidentally cuts Clinton with the razor blade]

    Anderson: I'm sorry. I haven't done this for a long time. Did you make a speech the night that you beat up your wife, Clinton? Huh? Did ya? Did you strike a blow for the white man that night? Huh?

    [Anderson lifts Clinton out of his barber chair and thrusts his face towards a mirror]

    Anderson: You got a stupid smile. You know that, Pell?

    [Anderson pushes Clinton's face right up against the mirror]

    Anderson: Can you see it? Huh? Good!

    [Anderson pulls Pell away from the mirror and throws him up against a wall]

    Anderson: Did you smile when the bulldozer ran over the black kid's body? Did ya?

    [Anderson pulls Clinton away from the wall and walks him towards a sink filled with water. Anderson then pushes Clinton's face into the water then quickly pulls him back out]

    Anderson: Did you smile when the bodies were covered over? Did ya?

    [Anderson throws Clinton towards a wall. Clinton hits the wall and falls to the ground]

    Anderson: Get up here.

    [Anderson pulls Clinton up off the ground]

    Anderson: Come on. Get up! Did you smile that same stupid smile, huh?

    [Anderson smacks Clinton in the face]

    Anderson: Did ya? You...

    [Anderson throws Clinton towards a line of chairs, knocking them over and landing on the ground]

    Anderson: You... Did ya smile, Pell? Did ya smile? Huh? Did ya?

    [Anderson pushes Clinton onto a barber chair and holds the razor blade to his face]

    Anderson: Make no mistake about it, Deputy. I'll cut your fuckin' head off and not give a shit how it reads in the report sheet.

    [Anderson walks away, leaving Clinton lying dazed and beaten in the spinning barber chair]
