[Atypical Film Critic] Lying is a liar's liar, seeking truth is the universe of truth-seekers. It's hard to say who can do it... What you see is only what you want to see. It is terrible to think about this. What's terrible is not that people can't find the truth all their lives, but that they disintegrate the red dust weaving in lies, and are no longer able to save the truth. No one cares about the truth anymore. It should be said that people are born with a desire for truth, nature, historical facts, science, events... the truth in various latitudes, they really frame our world and worldview. But gradually there are more people and fewer resources. Some people’s desires and ambitions begin to overflow the boundaries of their hearts. They begin to lie. Liars create disasters and rumors, just like the plague will be contagious, panic will also spread, and the weak will bow their heads to help. Liars take advantage of their strength. They reverse everything and confuse their will. From then on, ignorance becomes wisdom, vulgar becomes elegant, and filthy becomes pure. The body of lies, whitewashes the peace, swaying and enchanting all beings. Where are the rest? It doesn't matter whether it is strong or soft, but it's easy to swallow directly without chewing, just wrap the belly with the ration of the liar's regurgitation all day long. How long can it last? I am afraid that sooner or later, they will surrender their weapons and sacrifice their souls. No one has the power to pursue the truth. The above is all from the perspective of spectators. If you ask me if I have made up nonsense for fame and fortune, and how much I have made up, I can only answer: Fortunately, I don't do news...or else I will only be drowned in nonsense. , It's just being blocked by the truth. Back to the movie itself, "shattered "glass", the Chinese name "I want to cover up and show up", I highly recommend this paraphrase, because the reason depends on my own understanding. This is a film that changes based on real events. The male protagonist, an excellent pretender, looks young and handsome, enthusiastic and meticulous, active in thinking, and outstanding. With many social and political commentaries, he has gained a foothold in the "New Republic" magazine (the 41 articles that were later confirmed to be published) There are 27 editorials that are fabricated). In fact, he formed gangs internally, deceived the top and concealed himself, and treated news topics by unscrupulous and profitable methods. It's a pity that his keen sense of smell, super execution power and sharp writing style are really good at writing novels, but it is too bad for his intentions and influence to write news and editorials as novels and creations. , It's sensational for fear of not being chaotic. Such a genius who enters the wrong line is really a headache. If it’s not for the only remaining truth-seeking fighter to investigate the roots, grasp his appearance, and cut the roots, if journalists all uphold the belief that I will post what the reader loves, then it will be deceitful and eye-catching. The ethos of chasing fame and fortune does not stop confusing the "New Republic" family. The entire United States and the entire industry will be infected with diseases. What is the social responsibility and credibility of truth-seeking news? ! Will this set off another "xx door incident"? ! As a result, I dare not think about it. This is a real thing that happened in the United States. In the celestial dynasty... I won't say anything. It was this charming liar with bright eyes and white teeth, a "glossy tongue", and always humble and self-pity to the dust. The "excellent performance" lasted an hour and a half, which really opened my mind and thought of it countless times A kind of disease, frostbite. In my opinion, people who are sexually lying or who are captured by lies are like frostbite of the soul. The sad thing is not body necrosis, but the decay of the heart and the eyes and the death of faith. Seeing him face the conclusive evidence, he was still digging up his mind to make up lies, doing everything to the extreme, even when he was confronted with a hard duck mouth and running a train full of mouths, I remembered a poem from Bei Dao, especially wanting to throw it to him, although He has long been "deadly ill" and has no sense at all-"Despicable is the pass of the vile, and the noble is the epitaph of the noble". The more the film is about to climax, especially when the male protagonist sheds clear and rascal tears in his wailing, the more a saying is in his throat-"the poor must have something to hate"! Fortunately, in the end the incident occurred in Dongshuang, this person was revealed, and it has been difficult to make waves. Finally, I pay special tribute to the editor-in-chief Chuck and the kind of people represented by Chuck, for your clear thinking, truth-seeking belief, and adherence to the bottom line. I want to say but haven't said, there are many more, so I can only use the eight characters "full of brainpower, thoughts to fly" to summarize my feelings. In short, this film is good enough for me! As Caitlin says in the movie,'You stop apologizing for everything, i was looking to your mails, you should be pissed at me! 'But how could he be pissed at anybody? He is such a lier, totally an aggressive fabricator, who shall be ashamed of every piece of fake news he cooked, and be truly sorry to all the co-workers and readers who trusted him before.
