whose list?

The so-called brain-burning magic movie is actually to control the degree of "brain-burning". It is too brain-burning and no one says it is good. This movie is one of them. It is a movie worth watching at least twice.

First of all, you must have considerable Cold War knowledge in order to understand the plot. Many people think that the "list" is an excuse for agents to compete, and its existence is unreasonable. In fact, we must first understand who "made" the list?

In this movie, in addition to the British MI6, the American CIA, and the Soviet KGB, there is also a relatively hidden intelligence organization, namely Stasi, Stasi, and the East German Ministry of State Security. Although this spy agency is not large in scale, it has no funds. Affluent, but very efficient, the most famous deed is to rely on the "beautiful man's plan" to attack the lonely female secretary in the government agency. Mission, but, I really fell in love with you... Now because I don't want to use you to steal secrets, I'm going to be recalled, maybe even killed... Goodbye, I love you forever... Ah! Are you really willing to provide information for me? This way we can stay together for a long time, I love you... um um... ah ah... oh oh (the following 10,000 words are omitted).

Although Stasi is the younger brother of KGB, not every information is shared with the big brother. There is also a strange place, that is, Stasi insists on recording information in written form, thinking that electronicization will lead to leaks, and intelligence personnel Code names and identities were kept separately, and after the fall of the Berlin Wall, intelligence leaders professionally destroyed most of the lists to protect comrades who had dedicated themselves to the revolutionary cause.

So why does the list include British, American, and Soviet agents, and all three are bound to win, and even deceive allies? It is precisely because this list is "telescope" that according to Stasi's information, using his unforgettable talent, it is sorted out and placed in the watch in the form of classical microfilm. For example, when the United Kingdom gets the list, it will find out: the United States is undercover with us, and sells our secrets to win the trust of the Soviet Union? This is embarrassing...

The Berlin Wall is about to fall, and the East German trees are falling and scattered. Stasi's agent "Telescope" made a list and wanted to sell it to MI6 as a way to enter, but MI6's street agent, because he had a relationship with the heroine A love affair, so he issued a Wang Jiazhi-style passionate warning in Lust Caution: Run away. So I got the same ending: being chased and killed by KGB. However, the KGB killer also felt that his motherland was precarious and his future was bleak.

So, the British sent the heroine to retrieve the list, and to test who was the traitor? The male protagonist is the head of the MI6 Berlin station. He is very happy, and he is not happy with the fall of the Berlin Wall. Can we still play spy games happily in the future? ! So after I got the list, I didn't hand it over to the country. I wanted to use the list as a resource to continue to call for wind and rain in the post-Cold War era. Therefore, even though I knew that the heroine was a double undercover agent, I didn't report it. Instead, I wanted to use the hands of KGB to get rid of the heroine and " Telescope", however, the female protagonist is superior, not only counter-killing, but also tampering with the recording, framed the male protagonist as a traitor. I want to complain that the British technology is too sloppy, and the edited tapes can't be found?

I think the reason for the low rating of this movie is that it was not clear who betrayed his ex-boyfriend and who killed the "telescope". It was too obscure, and it made the plot seem ordinary to those who didn't read it carefully, and it was just a sex scene. In fact, if I don't make it clear, it is also a last resort. This part is too dark, and such a cold-blooded and ruthless character can't be the heroine, so it is blurred.

In the end, it turns out that the biggest black hand behind the scenes is the CIA. Well, this is very realistic. The final truth is actually not important. What this film mainly expresses is a feeling of disillusionment: when the martyrs throw their heads and shed their blood, the country and system established; of disillusionment. When he finally completed the mission successfully, he betrayed his ex-boyfriend; he killed the defecting agent who brought his family and mouth;

The Cold War was actually a good time for intelligence agencies of all parties. Everyone took a clear stand and fought for their own ideas, but in fact they were more civilized and seldom killed people. When they caught spies, they were often exchanged for it. However, the good times when the enemy was clear are gone, and now it is too hard for the United States to keep creating new enemies...
