Boston Legal is a pure TV series, why do you say that? Because its costumes are not as gorgeous as GossipGirl, its performance scenes are not as splendid as Privileged, its storyline is not as ups and downs as PrisonBreak, its script is not as bizarre as LOST, it only has Crane, Pool & Schmidt Law Firm to take over Some of the lawsuits are just the very speculative words of wise lawyers against the court, some are just lawyers with distinctive personalities created by the actors, some are just humorous dialogues between lawyers, some It is just the audience's deep thinking about the profession of lawyer and the term of law. Therefore, it is a pure TV series that attracts audiences only by virtue of its lines and its connotations.
If the lawyers in Boston Legal are just courtroom orators, law firms' cash cows, and customers' idols, then Boston Legal is not Boston Legal. As I saw in the first few episodes of S01, the famed Denny Crane has fought a lifetime of lawsuits and has a record of winning more than 6,000 cases, but he's a partner with character who can help when meeting Aside from the remote person, he conveyed the content of the meeting in a few words by himself, and he could make a funny joke when everyone was discussing matters. This is how he taught his son Alan Shore, A rabbit in the hat, that's the secret. He called on the black people in the courtroom to turn things around. In another thorny case, Alan Shore dispatched his girlfriend to seduce witnesses and use his cowardice to make him change his testimony.
Is this what is called Legal? ! This is called Justice? ! It turns out that the legal profession relies on these so-called Rabbit tricks outside the courtroom to sway the jury's vote and the judge's sentence to win the victory?
It is for this reason that Alan Shore's girlfriend left him, in fact, Alan Shore gave up his girlfriend. "It is because I care about you that I give you the most sincere advice to leave this place." His implication was not to let his girlfriend leave the legal profession, but to leave himself, them, people of both worlds , One sent his girlfriend to cover the other's witnesses, and the other was dissatisfied with her boyfriend's behavior. Sure enough, they separated.
My heart also leaves this show, but it's just a film that reveals the dark side of American justice.
But if a classic is to be sublimated into eternity, it is unwilling to degenerate. It will fight a turnaround in the next few episodes, making me and all the audience re-examine the American judicial circle.
The fact that Denny Crane is constantly reiterated in the film is that Denny Crane is old. When facing the eloquence of the opponent's lawyer and getting up to argue, his mind suddenly goes blank. He doubts whether he has Alzheimer's disease, and he always repeats himself. The name is because he is afraid of getting old. When he looked at the bustling night scene of Boston, he raised his red wine glass and said My city! In fact, he is still unwilling. He has never lost a lawsuit after decades of fighting. He can be familiar with the psychological activities of the parties, juries, judges, and the public. He can strategize the American judicial system. He can reverse the unexpected Rabbit. situation, but he had to admit the fact that he was old. Unable to contend with the shrinking of brain cells, even though his experience is a valuable asset.
Alan Shore is the son of Denny Crane and an upgraded version of Denny Crane. He also mastered the Rabbit theory, but he has his own set of justice in his heart. It can be said that he is the god of law. When he asked his client's witnesses to sue his client, that is, the pharmaceutical company, for the benefit of millions of diabetics, I saw a fighter who fought against the evil forces in the legal field with the sword of justice in his hand. When he sued the judge for the benefit of his client, regardless of the judge's "scorebook" about him, I saw an unruly warrior who fought bravely. When he said his hope to the client who was acquitted by himself from the court, I saw a guardian who held the balance between sin and goodness. When he quietly listened to his client's reasons for transvestites to become Santa Claus, I saw a tolerant and benevolent person who was enough to carry the boat. When he sent the winning mayor's wife out, he did not go to the so-called romantic hotel with the mayor's wife, but chose his girlfriend. I saw a lawyer who looked fancy and lewd, but was actually a person who kept his promises.
Alan Shore asked me to re-examine the judicial world in the United States. At least in the TV series, he is the embodiment of justice. At least in the judicial world, there is still the existence of the force of justice.
Another success of Boston Legal is that it relies on the American democratic system. In S01E11, which I just read, lawyers frantically sued the US government on behalf of their clients and ignored the genocide in Bhutan. After the judge said the but turning point, I thought it was just a farce, but the judge made a meaningful turning point, because the TV series should be sublimated and the TV series should be classic. "Although Iraq, Iran, North Korea nuclear and other thorny issues revolve around the United States, since we have assumed the responsibility of fighting terrorists in the world, we must carry it out. Although this view may not be recognized by the court, at least Here is my sentence." I forgot the specific sonorous lines, but it reminded me of Obama's firm eyes when he said "to those who ..we will defeat you!" The United States, the superpower, assumed its responsibility. The show has used its power to the extreme, like VOA, to make the world identify with American values.
Fortunately, there are more than 4 seasons waiting for me to eat. At this time, I thought that a good TV series does not have to have too many seasons. PrisonBreak is probably like this. The story has been told and the suspense has been reached. The rest of the work is to leave a classic to the audience.
