root cause of discrimination

Bradford 2022-04-19 09:01:29

With the soft music and the graininess unique to the film era, people can't help but slowly integrate into the connotation era of that movie. In fact, I have never had much awareness of growth and the passage of time. Until I saw the brick flip phone and the iron taxi again, I suddenly realized that time has passed quietly for more than 20 years, and the inventions we have become accustomed to have come to the world 20 years ago Said to be so trendy and luxurious, it turns out that we are all getting old.

As a lawyer-themed work, several actors in it performed naturally and wonderfully. All the in-court defenses are also very lively and very high-level! The AIDS patient played by Tom Hanks is also very good.

The film discusses the root causes of discrimination against AIDS and homosexuality. Obviously, in those more conservative times, people's understanding of these two "abnormal" social phenomena was still very limited. The group is ludicrously portrayed as a group of terrifying demons, who even go to great lengths to expel the protagonist from the company. The most commendable part of the film is the caring and de-demonization of these minorities. In fact, such people may be by your side, and they don’t seem to be any different from you, they are the same living people.
