what a world we visited

Two hundred years ago, black people were transported to the New World as livestock, and the visitors who arrived before them slaughtered the local weird "Indians" because of the lack of the Tower of Babel; today, the Arab people who came out of the hometown of Jesus are despised. With scolding, a T-cap that was invisible and intangible was firmly buckled on each of their heads. They carry the fascinated "American Dream" and end up as unwelcome uninvited guests.

The plot of the movie is very simple, and most people can guess the ending, but I never thought of fast-forwarding or even turning off the player. The director should be thankful that he found a good soundtrack. The dull and incoherent piano pieces were gradually replaced by Arabic rhythms, and I involuntarily wriggled my excess fat with the drums. Music is a language without borders, and the film once again confirms this iron law.

Say something off topic.

Just before I wrote this review, Morgan and Goldman Sachs announced that they would give up their investment banking business and transformed themselves into a mediocre commercial bank. The nearly 100-year-old Wall Street that Americans are proud of has since changed beyond recognition, and the subprime mortgage crisis has evolved into The biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

2008 is destined to be an extraordinary year.

In my lifetime, I was able to see the collapse of Wall Street. It was Sansheng's fortune.

Going back to the movies, I wonder how many people are still obsessed with the so-called "American Dream." Economic collapse is inevitable, resulting in a sharp rise in unemployment, rising inflationary pressures, and accelerated currency depreciation. The Bush administration is considered a dog-luck. Immediately this mess can be thrown to others, and the means and ability of Obama and McCain to deal with this crisis will directly determine whether the next most powerful man is a black man or an old man. .

The US government should also do some self-repentance for 9/11. Regardless of whether this is the "Tale of the Two Towers" directed by the Bush administration, the growing anxiety and distrust among the people is an irrefutable fact. Fraud is all the rage, first from Andersen's own palace, and now it's Wall Street's downfall. The CCP will probably have to bow down before them.

A larger cleanup of illegal immigrants is brewing, and they must not be able to do it.
That's what this movie is about the most - showing us the way out for illegal immigrants and homeless people in the United States.

There is an interesting detail in the movie. The old American man was sitting there by himself practicing drums, when a Senegalese woman walked in, the Yankee was embarrassed, and hurriedly used a joke: "I won't just wear panties." But he immediately realized that the joke was made by the wrong person. , Thinking of the scene of breaking into the bathroom before, the Yankee only got a hard stare.

Still talking about the problem of inability to communicate between people, whether in words or actions. Any joke will offend other people. And when we are the uninvited guests, how can we restrain our manic nerves in order to settle down?

Who knocked on your door today?

And you, are you dissatisfied, angry or apprehensive about it?
