Newton's firmness

Newton decided to remove the collar from the black man's neck. There will be a noise.
  "The hounds will come when they hear the sound."
  "How many hounds are there?"
  "The patrol will also come."
  "How many people are there in the patrol?"
  Newton launched an ambush on the patrol who heard the sound.
  This is one of his choices at a critical moment. In the process of fighting for the rights of poor people and slaves, all his decisions were so decisive,...

I almost got the ballot

This is not to rob or negotiate with gangs, but to carry out the election with live ammunition. The Democrats don't want to let the Republican guys in.
I squeezed in, and the scrutineer ridiculed that there was no such vote as the Republican Party, and almost shot at random, and finally had to give the Republican brother a few votes.
In the election, the Republicans were still defeated. Seeing that they went to dozens of people, they got 2 votes, insulting 2 votes!
This is still...

Plain as water

Watching this movie feels like watching a very ordinary TV work. It was originally a legendary story, but the story is as boring as boiled water. It hardly feels the point, and there are very few climax scenes. It was watching Matthew McConaughey acting alone there, but without a good story background, there is no superb acting ability by himself. . .
    For such a historical theme, the film was a little wasteful, and it came to the end without pain. Perhaps, the film was placed many...

The first half is good, entertaining, and the structure is qualified. The movie starts to crumble from the second half. turned into a running account. The KKK, new policies, etc., are only briefly mentioned. The first half is about characters with events, and the second half is about events with characters. The director has digressed. So just talking about the script is definitely not up to the...

Through this film, you can learn a lot about the history of slavery in the United States in the 1980s. They fought for freedom, suffrage and human rights. And all this is through the experience of a white Newton Knight and his descendants, to uncover that dark history. They set up a prison in a swamp in Jones, fighting against government forces and the Ku Klux Klan. Today’s free and open America has come this way too. The key is for someone to fight and stick to their beliefs, even if they pay...
