watching this movie, everyone can discuss the politics, laws, and even the director and screenwriter's arrangements, such as the appearance of the little girl, just before she appeared, I still thought, this movie will not appear this key person. Ingenious indeed.
What I want to talk about is the strength of the protagonist. When she turned around several times, and then lost her freedom, I broke down for her. This is a strong person. We need people who stand up for our justice and our right to know the truth. As the silent majority, we should know how to be grateful. I believe that her insistence is not to protect the little girl. She can choose to love her son, and it is not simply the reporter's reputation as the "uncrowned king". Not only did she discover the truth, The truth is protected, and the public's right to know the truth is protected.
Talking about the theme of "Truth First", director Rod Larry said: "This movie has a very simple and clear theme, like its title, everything is based on the truth. The film starts with the heroine Rachel. It starts with reporting the truth of a news, and ends with her revealing the truth of the whole thing. The story from beginning to end is about the views and choices of each character in the film about the word 'truth'. I think in real life, everyone's heart Everyone has the idea of ​​pursuing the truth, but due to various pressures in reality, this courage may not be able to carry out. But in the film, I want to create a pressure greater than reality, so that the audience will always be Put yourself in the position of the protagonist and ask yourself, if I'm in that angle, what should I do? That's something I want to communicate with the audience, and I want the audience to feel that when they watch the movie."

    Kate Beckinsale is amazing, and she does a great job... Maybe some people will think that the ending is a failure, and finally finding out that it is the little girl will seem that Rachel's insistence is meaningless, but the opposite. Come here, it is precisely because of this that Rachel's principles as a professional reporter should be highlighted. If that intelligence provider is in what form...

    The ending makes everything pointless, and protecting the little girl from guilt over her mother's death just needs to keep it a secret from the judge. If you don't know who the informant is, this movie will definitely have four stars. Now I will give it three stars for that defense.

Nothing But the Truth quotes

  • Ray Armstrong: [staring at his wife's new story] You made the top page!

  • Alan Burnside: [In front of the Supreme Court] In 1972 in Branzburg v. Hayes this Court ruled against the right of reporters to withhold the names of their sources before a grand jury, and it gave the power to the Government to imprison those reporters who did. It was a 5-4 decision, close. In his dissent in Branzburg, Justice Stewart said, 'As the years pass, power of Government becomes more and more pervasive. Those in power,' he said, 'whatever their politics, want only to perpetuate it, and the people are the victims.' Well, the years have passed, and that power is pervasive. Mrs. Armstrong could have buckled to the demands of the Government; she could've abandoned her promise of confidentiality; she could've simply gone home to her family. But to do so, would mean that no source would ever speak to her again, and no source would ever speak to her newspaper again. And then tomorrow when we lock up journalists from other newspapers we'll make those publications irrelevant as well, and thus we'll make the First Amendment irrelevant. And then how will we know if a President has covered up crimes or if an army officer has condoned torture? We as a nation will no longer be able to hold those in power accountable to those whom they have power over. And what then is the nature of Government when it has no fear of accountability? We should shudder at the thought. Imprisoning journalists? That's for other countries; that's for countries who fear their citizens - not countries that cherish and protect them. Some time ago, I began to feel the personal, human pressure on Rachel Armstrong and I told her that I was there to represent her and not her principle. And it was not until I met her that I realized that with great people there's no difference between principle and the person.
