For example, "The Biography of Mozart" has a novel perspective, mainly showing Mozart's genius memory and talent, as well as his profligate bad habits. "Chaplin Biography" shows the history of Chaplin's struggle from circus clown to comedy master. The rich love history and the love of underage girls are presented, "The Pianist" shows the artist's decency and loftiness, and the bitterness of being crushed by war.

The characters shown in these films are indeed people, and most of them are well-known, but it is relatively long away from us, and Snowden is only 3 years old, and he is still an explosive news personality. It is difficult to turn him into a movie character. , The difficulty is that his voice, face and smile are basically familiar to us. Many people have seen the documentary, and they have almost understood the facts, so it is actually difficult to grasp the authenticity. If you simply show the facts, it will really be a waste of the subject matter; if there are too many artistic transformations, it will appear false.
Haven't seen Oliver Stone's previous films, only know his war trilogy. A director who likes political themes is more suitable for this kind of film. There were no disappointments, and certainly not too many surprises.
It's a movie worth watching, just because he's Snowden.
The film seems to have the effect of popular science, and the narrative is too direct. Although it is a cross between Snowden's work experience in the past and an interview in Hong Kong now, it seems less monotonous, but this method is really nothing new. It just tells the story. Well, it's a bit outdated, but fortunately, the director's ideas are quite clear and the details are appropriate. Two characteristics of Snowden are conveyed very clearly:
First, his patriotism is very strong. He served in Iraq in 2004 and got out of bed. The slip and fall caused fractures to return to the country. Ordinarily, most people are eager to think about Billy Lynn, but he was annoyed and felt that he had not contributed to the country.
The second is very kind and empathetic. The first time that shocked him was xkeycore, which could activate the camera of the computer at will, and watch Iranian women undress with a colleague who was accustomed to it and even made fun of it. This kind of religious people can wrap their clothes all year round for their beliefs. Wearing a headscarf and a robe, thinking about how humiliating and humiliating they would be if they knew that someone had seen their body, or that a strange man from a capitalist country snooped with a playful attitude, "I've long wanted to know what's under this dress". anger.
How terrifying this kind of behavior is, you are trying so hard to protect your precious things and being seen as a joke by others, your privacy is leaked so thoroughly, but you don't even know it. Why is empathy important? It is to put all the pain that the other party will suffer on oneself and experience it, not simply sympathy. To be honest, I didn't really think about the importance of privacy. When the supervisor said to Snowden that security was compared to freedom, people would definitely choose security. This statement sounds correct, you would rather live in terror Under the haze of the attack, should you be afraid, or accept the trampling of your privacy by others? If I had to choose, I would rather let them use this to exclude those terrorists!
Snowden stopped the disgusting peeping and turned to other topics, disgusted by the thought of whether he was being spied on when he and his girlfriend rolled in bed. This kind of quality is the reason why he would give up a high salary and a stable and comfortable life and choose to be abandoned by the country, bear huge disputes, leave his hometown, and flee all the way. There is a huge danger at any time.
