    In the end, it turned out to be a mouthpiece to solve the problem. It's definitely not as refreshing as taking a plane. Black and white films deepen the face blindness of foreign white...

    The story of this film is very good and very fascinating. But I'm going to talk about the old topic again. I don't really feel the political subject matter. What I feel about this film is the development of the plot, so I can't feel the political connotation. What's more unsatisfactory is that the appearance of a lot of names at the beginning of the film made me very confused. There are so many stars in this film, and March's performance is a little more eye-catching. The male nominee’s...

    This movie was released a year after Kennedy's assassination, combined with Kennedy's handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis and some hawkish images of the military at that time, it perfectly reproduces the atmosphere of the Cold War. Under the black and white images, several shots are very powerful, and with snare drums, this film is as calm as an internal reference...

    Constitutional missions, political suspense, moderately well-formed, sophisticated images (do not compare this film with "Dr. Strange Love" if you don’t look at other short reviews). Is the senator’s way of finding the secret base a bit far-fetched... It’s also a "for Don’t engage in all-male class politics and make a sex scene between men and women.” After Ava Gardner’s "Embroidered Scarf Masked Pirate", remotely VS Bertrand Lancaster again. Lanka's role as war mad general always feels that it...

Seven Days in May quotes

  • Paul Girard: Admiral, I understand you're not much of a betting man.

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: It depends on the game.

    Paul Girard: Hmm. What is your pleasure... poker... roulette... what?

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: No, those are house games. I don't much care for the odds.

    Paul Girard: What about horse racing?

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: On occasion... it depends on the race... sometimes the weather... and the horse does make the difference.

    Paul Girard: Hmm. That's true, that's true. What about the Preakness? Have you got anything good going there?

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: [Adm. Barnswell senses that Girard knows about the takeover plot] I only bet on sure things.

    Paul Girard: Admiral, you're a very lucky sailor. That's exactly what I've got for you: a sure thing.

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: What is the bet, Mr. Girard?

    Paul Girard: The bet is that there are members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who are involved in treason. We know who they are, we know the essence of the plan. Now from you, Admiral, I want a signed statement indicating at what moment you first heard of this operation and your complicity in this entire matter.

    Vice-Adm. Farley C. Barnswell: Frankly, I wish I had more time.

    Paul Girard: [sarcastically] I wish you did too, Admiral.

    [tosses him a pen to write the statement]

    Paul Girard: Unfortunately, you don't.

  • [last lines]

    President Jordan Lyman: [to reporters at a televised press conference] There's been abroad in this land in recent months a whisper that we have somehow lost our greatness, that we do not have the strength to win without war the struggles for liberty throughout the world. This is slander, because our country is strong, strong enough to be a peacemaker. It is proud, proud enough to be patient. The whisperers and the detractors, the violent men are wrong. We will remain strong and proud, peaceful and patient, and we will see a day when on this earth all men will walk out of the long tunnels of tyranny into the bright sunshine of freedom.

    [president exits; reporters stand and applaud]

    Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, that was the President of the United States.
