An Officer and a Spy

His talent helped him escape the law, helped him rape a young girl, gave him a financial position, and now give him honor.

Those who judge Polanski's personal life and works separately, do you think talent is talent, personal life is personal life, don't mix it up, his movies are good enough and he should be awarded awards, for personal faults are the judge's If even the law cannot sanction it, it only means that there is a loophole in the law, and it has nothing to do with you. Does it really matter?

You know that attitude is silence? Your silence will make those pedophiles less afraid...

Anti-Lola historical narrative, analyzing film texts from a structuralist perspective

Alfred Dreyfus (1859-1935), a French artillery officer, was a victim of the famous "Dreyfus case" in French history. As a Jew, Dreyfuss was convicted of espionage by a military court on December 22, 1894, causing a worldwide wave of anti-Semitic movements. In the following 12 years, French society was also plunged into riots. The reason why the Dreyfus case became an unjust case was that it was influenced by the anti-Semitic sentiment prevailing in the French nation at that time, which not...

2 Political History Movies in 2 Countries in 2020

I accuse He Qijunzi , both of which are trying to restore historical events with extremely complicated backgrounds. After a lapse of about 70 years, one is a European Jew and the other is an African American. In the context of 2020, it seems especially timely.

The common denominator is what Abbie said to Hayden, throwing off his hippie jacket and risking his life: We are not killed by what we do but who we are. Country, army, heavy power, people, individual. Individuals who choose to...

"I Complain"

This is a movie released in 2019. Directed by Polanski. After watching this film, I specially watched the 1937 version of the film "Zola Biography" which was related to the plot of the film. The film describes a famous case in France at the end of the 19th century. French intelligence intercepted a letter addressed to the German embassy in France concerning a serious secrecy-related incident. After checking the handwriting, it was determined that it was written by the Jewish...

Isn't this the real irony brought by Polanski?

There seems to be a trend of moral conservatism and moral cleanliness in society now. Once private morality does not fall into the eye of orthodox morality, it will be punished badly. This is also reflected in the criticism of Polanski's new film "I Complain" at home and abroad. The great French director Roman Polanski, whose wife was brutally murdered in Hollywood when he was young, was accused of raping his young daughter in the United States in the 1970s, and has been living in Europe...

It's hard to watch only with English subtitles. A historical drama in costume is actually interesting under Polanski's hands. Lighting and photography are also great....

The historical Dreyfus Affair, an outbreak of anti-Semitism in France for a long time, led French society to sharp social conflict, and the event itself was regarded by scholars including Hannah Arendt as a French , even a landmark event of European anti-Semitism. Entering the film, Polanski recreated the incident completely with his skillful skills and excellent control. It's the tip of the iceberg of indifference. As for disputes outside the film, what Polanski has done is real, and will not...

When I saw the appearance of Alphonse Bettyron, who identified the handwriting, I immediately joined the scene. I remember that when Dr. Mortimer asked Holmes, he said that Fu "is the second best expert in Europe", and Fu asked "who is the first?", talking about Betty Rong, but he was also stubbornly prejudiced, and this year's experts will not work...

The change of attitude of the soldier himself and the change of a farm worker who joined the army (Austrian soldier swears filial piety and loyalty) in his secret life (like this one, also 19 years). These two can be said to be the personnel within the original system. Just like what Agamben said in an introduction I read before: resistance does not appear outside the existing system, resistance is in the current contradiction... I don't know if it can be connected in this way. (This one is...
