Nothing But the Truth

In the opening scene, Timmy sits with another boy. The other boy pretends to be asleep and kicks the chair in the front seat to frame Timmy. Mom turned around, but Timmy did not inform. Then the little girl ALISON ran over and said that someone was pulling her pigtails. Timmy said that she was the one who made a small report, and we should not make a small report, but her mother said that it was not to protect herself. In what happened next, she made the same choice as her son, not to be an informant.


The source and end of the relationship news. First of all, it is certain, but in the end, the original source is not stated. The original source was the ambassador's daughter. The ambassador's daughter ALISON could not provide proof but only said such a thing. And this is the source of this incident, so the heroine went to other people to inquire, mainly including the White House official.
What the ambassador’s daughter said is indeed not legally valid or credible, but it is a true source of information, and the heroine did not write the report by relying on the little girl’s words. Instead, she wrote the report after seeking verification and finally confirmed her words. .
So why is the heroine always so firm, even when facing prison life, separation of parent and child, betrayal of her husband and so on. Because we know that even if you tell the source of the news, the little girl ALISON as the source of the news will not be punished for it. So what is she insisting on? Please take a look at the sequence of events. After the death of the ambassador's wife, the White House official came out to confess. I read the analysis of some people, and I agree with some of them. The heroine is protecting her informants, and the White House official is one of the most important. I agree that the heroine will protect people including this White House official from the beginning. When the White House officials came out again, nothing happened. During this period, the ambassador's wife, ALISON's mother, died unexpectedly. In the end, the heroine did not choose to say it to protect the little girl's feelings. I don't want ALISON to think that her mother's death was caused by what she accidentally revealed.

The heroine is a journalist with a firm conviction from beginning to end, a water-walker (form from Bible).

    Politics, policy, rights and power, ethics and principles. Such a deep topic is actually so catchy. Kate finally got rid of the vase.

    Before I saw the ending, I had the urge to give 5 stars. It not only involves the rights and obligations of people in the news media, but also sees the changes in everyone's life under national security politics, while at the same time realizing the realization of family and women's rights. I was very relieved to see this film on the 12th Press Festival. It's best to give the movie 6 stars when you see the ending! The film with the long ending gives the impression of lingering voices. The world is complicated, it's too hard to stick to anything

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.
