You can't overthrow the regime, you can only become the regime

Great movie editing and cinematography. In 2018, it can be regarded as a masterpiece among masterpieces. 70 minutes are highly concentrated. I watched it for 2 hours. The rhythm was slow at the beginning, which made a good preparation for the subsequent outbreak. There are similarities in the same way. Once you get into the rhythm, there is no chance to breathe. New understanding of Shostakovich's symphony. It is very suitable for this scene. I thought it was just thinking about it in the movie. The time is not right, although it is indeed two outstanding art masters from the same era. I don't know how other soundtrack versions are.

You can't overthrow the regime, you can only become the regime

It's really hard to judge a person's merits and demerits, neither the musketeer who was ordered to shoot nor the general should be easily judged of life and death, but the oppression of power really needs justice to be declared

The public has undoubtedly been easily incited to slide down the baby carriage to reflect the test of human nature. In today's impetuous and high-speed operation, the only thing an individual can do is to perfect himself at any time and anywhere, and he is not easily instructed by others

    2019.10.12 read it. The fast and fierce montage editing, the chaotic and tense Odessa stairs, and the wonderful and skillful group play scheduling together create a revolutionary hero story in a classical tragedy. SE is still soft-hearted. In reality, the Potemkin uprising ended in failure, and it also used blood to show the eternal truth: the stubbornness and brutality of vested interest groups determine that the use of force in the process of confronting public power is not only necessary but also noble. In addition, I will mention the reason why I hate the military and police. They are really just doing their job, but they can't and won't think about whether it's the right job or not. They are more tools than people, and many of them even take pride in being tools ("A soldier's duty is to obey orders"). I cannot applaud such dehumanization. Some people say that the military and police will also protect the people, but in fact they fail to see the essence through the phenomenon. Violent organs will always maintain only the interests of the regime, and protecting the people is only to consolidate the rule, which is purely a by-product. Just as war can objectively promote scientific and technological progress, can it be said that the purpose of war is to develop science? The logic of inversion of cause and effect is unacceptable.
