I worry about not being able to find a job every day when I see the female protagonist who is a mother of three children in the movie clip is fired and lives a day without a meal, and circles the newspaper to find a job. I decided to open this movie and felt that I could use it to motivate myself.
I also felt the same way when I saw that it was a lawsuit with a water supply company that was too big to fail. Because I also made a mess because of the forced renovation of the apartment during the lease period. In the end, I lost the money that I could not spend after eating a few meals, and I was tired enough to take care of my body for half a year before I recovered. Now that I think about it, I don't know where I got the energy at that time, that is, to fight the opponent to the end. It can be said that I am young and vigorous, but sometimes I really just want to fight for that breath, to get justice.
Following the unsteady camera movement, the audience seems to have become the person who recorded everything with a small DV machine, and the bits and pieces of history unfolded slowly roll by roll without knowing it.
The yellowish tone is very similar to the dust that has accumulated in twenty years, and the dryness of California mixed with sand that can be smelled through the screen. It is more like the breathless depression and powerless pain shrouded in pollution.
Erin's car accident and failed lawsuit in the opening credits, her destitute situation, and even the history of a beauty queen who talks about world peace are all reasons why she chooses to expose the truth. Maybe it's because she's been helpless and experienced absent justice, so she can understand how important truth and justice are to those people.
...
When Erin was running around to collect signatures, she showed her documents in the back seat of the car several times, and I held my breath for fear that these hard-earned signatures would be stolen or destroyed. But fortunately none, and she successfully obtained key evidence. It was really smooth, and even if there was no jury, it ended in victory.
I also suspected that the success in the movie was a little too smooth and too simple, as if the protagonist didn't experience a happy ending, which is a bit unreal. But on second thought, Erin also paid a lot, read documents day and night, traveled around to contact victims, missed the first sentence of the baby, experienced the departure of his lover, was not understood by the children, etc. Every time she faced so many realities forcing you to bow her head, she chose to persevere.
Yes, sometimes people do overlook these bits and pieces of effort and effort, and when these are taken for granted, success does become a lot easier. Of course, her graceful figure and eloquent words, as well as the boss Mr. Masry who kept her from the beginning, invited her back to work again, and continued to follow her choices again and again, are all important factors for the final success. Perhaps we can only sigh that God has not wronged their efforts, and fairness and justice have not completely disappeared.
...
I was moved to tears when I saw the Zhen family received the compensation, and I was also very happy to see Masry's new office and Erin's happy life, but when the end credits reminded me again that this is a real event in history, Not happy either.
Instead, I began to doubt the water quality of my home, and I began to distrust the world and felt immense helplessness. After all, people who are ill will be tortured by disease for life, those who have passed away will not come back, the huge sums of money in compensation cannot make up for the damage to their souls, and the mercenaries will become more cunning... It seems a beautiful and peaceful society It is still full of unspeakable secrets, and undercurrents are still surging under the calm water.
Perhaps a beautiful utopia is not difficult to achieve, as long as people believe that it already exists.
