Companion is like a tiger. . .

I really like these kinds of films that reflect the politics of a country. I have seen several films that reflect South Africa. Only "Blood Diamond" can match it, but it is slightly inferior in depth.

The poverty and backwardness of a country has a long history, and it cannot be changed overnight. However, there are some crazy people who clamor and instigate the people, as if they are the savior of the world. . It really corresponds to the saying "In prosperity, the people suffer. When they die, the people suffer." In this regard, Duke Deng is great.

The Amin in the film is essentially a political hooligan, a capricious villain. He was cruel and unkind, full of lies, and changed the order, but in his heart he was fearful and cowardly and afraid of death. The actor who demoed the character is so expressive, it's no wonder that he won an Oscar for Best Actor.

To be with such a person is really like "walking with a wolf on a dark mountain road" as Zhang Xianliang said. Gray and the doctor didn't understand politics and were deceived by him. In the end, his wife woke him up by saying, "He has been completely exposed, and the situation can't get any worse." The traditional Chinese "death to repay the king" will not work here, this is not a king at all, it is a rogue.

I believe that so-called "civilized" countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States will reconsider how to deal with "barbaric" countries after their political speculation on Amin fails.
