The subject matter is very good, the angle is also good, and the performance is of a high standard, but the story is a bit broken, the rhythm is a bit off, and the narrative details are not quite...

I feel that the filming is still a bit simple, except that the real-life situation at the end of the film is more shocking and helpless, it is difficult to leave any deeper...

7 points. The story of a prisoner in Guantanamo after 9/11. His male protagonist was captured by the U.S. government without evidence, and is one of the tortured prisoners in the Guantanamo torture incident. Thanks to the tireless efforts of his defense lawyers, he remained behind bars for 14 years after the prosecution officer in his case dropped the prosecution for lack of evidence. Just watching the torture episodes in the movie is very irritating, but the male protagonist can survive...

It's a very old narrative, and it's really obscene to deliberately confuse the government and the judiciary at the...

"Freedom" and "forgiveness" are the same word in our country's language, as long as I forgive others, I am free. The film uses an almost two-line narrative, focusing on the male protagonist's experience on the one hand, and debating the law on the other. But this way of operation, although the plot is full, has a great impact on the control of the rhythm and the approach of the climax. I can't describe the protagonist's psychological state calmly, nor can I gradually discover the truth from the...

The three-line narrative structure and frequent interspersed narratives, the film adaptation is quite satisfactory, and even a straightforward glance. Fortunately, there are wonderful performances by Judy Foster and...

The subject matter is very good, but the story is overcrowded, and the expression is still lacking even when it is so full. Content and expression are fighting, so it would be better if it was made into a miniseries. The advantage is that all the performers are excellent, and Judy is steady and...

Nancy Hollander: You can't win a case if you don't believe your own shit.

Teri Duncan: Fuck... he fucking confessed.
Nancy Hollander: To what?
Teri Duncan: To everything. To financing 911, to hijacking the planes, he fucking ordered spreadsheets, inner workings of Al Qu'aida. Why didn't he tell us that he confessed?
Nancy Hollander: That's not the first time in history that a client's lied to his lawyers.
Teri Duncan: Look at this, look at his one - he admits to acquiring explosives to blow up LAFs. The millennium plot?
Nancy Hollander: What's your point?
Teri Duncan: He's guilty! He's fucking guilty!
Nancy Hollander: [shrugs] Maybe he is. He still has a right to counsel.
Teri Duncan: I'm not saying he doesn't, I'm saying that he helped to kill 3000 civilians and we're doing everything we can to get him out.
Nancy Hollander: We're doing our job.
Teri Duncan: I did bake sales for his legal fund! That's not a part of my job. My dad told me I'm not welcome home for thanksgiving, that's not a part of my job.
Nancy Hollander: Get out.
Teri Duncan: What?
Nancy Hollander: You want turkey and pumpkin pie with mom and dad and uncle Joe? Go on, get out. Go home. You can't win a case if you don't believe your own shit.
Teri Duncan: I'm not trying to...
Nancy Hollander: [interrups] Stop fucking wasting my time! Get out.
