      Trendy multi-threaded narrative, remarkable group performance

      I have been watching it in HD for more than two years. I watched Roman Polanski's 1988 movie Thrill, also starring Harrison Ford. Watching this again, my uncle is old, but his expression has not changed. The fashionable multi-threaded narrative route is similar to Babel Tower and Crash. Except for the uncle (who may have watched too many uncle films, which are suspected to be similar), the performances are remarkable. Qi Zai's director turned out to be Wayne Kramer, who shot deadly gunfire and...

      How Far You'd Go For A Status

      【This article is written to be handed as final paper for my elective course: American Immigration Culture. If you are reading for the same purpose, I strongly suggest you DO NOT copy crz all the following words are written by myself.]

          Like many other films focus on globalization and immigration, Crossing Over is also a multi-character canvas about immigrants of different nationalities struggling to achieve legal status in Los Angeles.

      A trace of tranquility sought in impetuousness, for me

      What kind of opportunity is this for me to see this movie on this occasion, and I will leave for a strange city the day after tomorrow. Although I have been there before, this time I am looking for a place for me.
      No matter what the purpose of coming to an unfamiliar city is to find a way to integrate into it, that is to find the so-called sense of belonging. The bitterness of that is only known to the wandering people. But that's not how people are. It is always disdainful or hesitant to...

      Just like Westerners claim to be humane, they don't eat dogs, but cows

      The United States claims to be inclusive, free, humane, and bullshit. What they need is people who are useful to them, those who are useful to their country, and those who are useless to them. If you want to be a bitch and set up an archway, either you don’t claim those fake slogans, or you are like a shelter, open to anyone, secretive, saying one thing and doing another.
        Americans, or Westerners, don't eat dog meat because dogs are man's friends. Nima dogs are smarter than cows. Dogs...

      In the face of the American Dream, everyone is equal.

      After watching the whole film with ups and downs, this is a film recommended by a friend who was going to blackmail the United States. He told me: Ignore the scary places, that's not the point. I understood what he meant by that. For Chinese who want to stay in the United States illegally, immigration officials are not terrible. Even the videos that capture typical cases ignore the Chinese. Chinese people are very honest and honest abroad, and they will quietly and quietly integrate into that...

      The cups of various illegal immigrants in the United States really sacrificed everything in order not to return to the backward third world. Kind of like "crash". But such a straightforward film won't win an Oscar this year. It must be said that politics is in line with mainstream thinking in order to be best. tragedy. Ashley Judd turned into a big mom, that wrinkle. . How beautiful it was back...

    • Special Agent Howell: You see what's interesting Miss Shepard is we ran a check on your name. A Claire Shepard arrived on a B-2 visitors visa seven months ago and then just two days ago she has her status adjusted to an EB-1 green card for persons of extraordinary ability.

      Max Brogan: What do you want me to do?

      San Pedro ICE Processing Agent: Look, it's not my problem.

      Max Brogan: All I'm asking, Stevens, is did the old man get seen to? He was sweating and shaking when I put him on the bus. He said his arm felt numb.

      San Pedro ICE Processing Agent: Jesus Christ, Brogan, everything is a humanitarian crisis with you. You've signed off on more orders of recognizance than the rest of your unit combined.

      Max Brogan: Don't give me that shit. The man's about to have a goddamn heart attack. I want him seen to.
