    In the later period of Queen Victoria, in order to expand the cultural influence of the British Empire in overseas colonies, she mobilized the English-speaking intellectuals to work together to compile a dictionary. To be honest, the hardest part of this film is the acting competition between the two powerful actors Mel Gibson and Sean Penn. Speaking of the core, I am really disgusted by the British bureaucracy who wants to decorate the facade and secretly rub the bottom of the pot. The book is...

    Love this kind of human story. Civilization has survived because of the tireless efforts of those who built it. Cats will never pass on civilization to future generations. There are actually little roses,...

    The plot is handled in a forward-looking manner. A little less love, a little deeper; the greatness of the academic enterprise is diluted by the tangle of strings. (From this, I realize the goodness of the BBC.) This is an ordinary, abundant, and broad life! It should be like...

    In fact, there is a shift from an objective perspective to a subjective perspective, but the emotional scalability is really good. While most of the characters are following their true feelings, Sean Penn's character has been restraining the outburst of emotions in the infinite self-blame and self-control. This difference is unforgettable, and it is indeed the ministry who dares to say Forgive the genuine "forgiveness" movie. PS. Everyone has a chance to reform, the motif of the whole...

    Dr. James Murray is not crazy. All art, literature, and architectural masterpieces come from lunatics. The scientists and politicians who move history forward are lunatics. Mel Gibson is like Marx in...

    History becomes legend, legend becomes myth. The story behind the compilation of the Oxford English Dictionary evokes the respect and yearning for the predecessors to explore the limits of knowledge, and also deduces an amazing emotional entanglement between the murderer and the victim's widow. With smooth narration, suitable actors and top acting skills, you are bound to be touched by empathy at the time of watching the movie, and after being touched, you will definitely explore a more real...

    Although it is a restoration of history, I still feel that the movie is very fragmented, maybe it is stuffed with too many things, ideals, politics, love, friendship, flying over the...

The Professor and the Madman quotes

  • James Murray: Who's she?

    Dr. William Chester Minor: The impossible.

    James Murray: The more impossible, the greater the love.

    Dr. William Chester Minor: Do you truly believe that? My heart is so sick.

    James Murray: Well... what I know of love is that the sickness often becomes the cure.

  • Ada Murray: Sometimes when we push away, that is when we most need to be resisted.
