Because it was filmed based on real historical events, its significance is probably the fuse of the American Civil War, so I am interested in looking for it. The only pity is that the domestic movie is not popular. There are not many sources, and the translation is not good enough.
However, the more we know about the history of the United States when the nation was ignorant in the early days of its founding, the more we will learn about George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Madison, Hamilton, etc. Waiting for these half-human and half-god sages to yearn for it, what kind of a group of amazing people that are unimaginable nowadays, which country in the world has seen such a group of intelligent, rational, open-minded, and so indifferent in mind, A great idealist founder who has both the most common people and the most aristocratic spirit, the history of the United States is a miracle in the entire history of human political civilization, that is, there is no precedent to follow, and it is difficult to simply replicate it elsewhere.
And this film shows the retired John Quincy Adams (the eldest son of the second president of the United States, John Adams, and the sixth president of the United States), the name I don’t know much about who won the lawsuit at the state level. The young lawyer named Roger Baldwin, as well as the justices of the Supreme Court, is precisely to continue the nation-building philosophy of their half-human and half-god ancestors.
Therefore, it is easy to understand the significance of the Civil War to the United States. It is not a simple issue of division and reunification in the Chinese understanding. It is not just the result of interest affiliation, but in a sense it has to be carried out just like Adams did. The movie said, "If the Civil War must break out, let him break out, but I personally hope that this is the last step of the American Revolution." That is to say, from the beginning of the Independence War to the end of the Civil War, the American revolution Only when the real merits are fulfilled, the Declaration of Independence stated that “everyone is born equal, given the gift of the creator, possessing all the inalienable rights, including the right to life, the right to freedom, and the right to pursue happiness”. It was truly realized on the hot land of China, and the ideal banner was planted on the Ideal Continent by a group of idealists.
Regarding many details in the film, if you are not familiar with the history of the time, you can refer to Linda's "I also have a dream" and read it. You should have a thorough understanding.
