Obviously, Stark's object of lobbying, Tyney, is also not interested. Fatty Tyney does not have a legitimate job, but he is very covert. His job is to find common interests between politicians and businessmen. In a popular way, Tyney is a political broker that people often call. Although Stark's proposal was great, there was not much room for Taney to profit from it. Taney of course tactfully rejected Stark. A crappy poor lobbyist, this is Willie Stark's first impression of Jack.
When Jack Bolton saw Willie Stark for the second time, he was selling gadgets on a rundown street. The enthusiastic attitude was the same as the last time we met, and Jack curiously invited him to relive the past in the tavern. At this time, Stark had lost his excellent job in the Finance Bureau, and the reason was obviously not because of his self-deprecating "Mathematics did not learn well". Jack began to realize that his view of this man was wrong. Willie Stark did fight for the children as he said, but unfortunately he still lost. Moreover, he and his wife who was a teacher were still He was relieved of public office in an unwarranted name. Who and what caused Stark to be treated so unfairly? Stark himself has a clear understanding of this issue...
When Jack Bolton saw Willis Stark for the third time, it was in the Mason City Cemetery. The brick school building Stark warned of had an accident due to quality problems. Three lovely children were unfortunately killed. Jack, who was in charge of reporting the malfeasance incident, found Stark among the people who came to mourn. This originally optimistic man had an indescribable grief on his face, without the joy of gloating. Jack pointed to Stark to his companion, saying that he would be the future mayor of Mason City.
Also seen Stark’s insight and insight is Taney. This fat man found Stark and lobbied him to take advantage of the current public opinion to get into politics. Because of the school building incident, Stark’s experience of admonition and persecution became people. The beautiful talks that are rushing to pass on, Willis Stark has been regarded as a fair and unbiased hero who dared to defend the rights of civilians.
Did destiny choose Stark? Or did Stark choose fate? This is not important. As expected by Jack, Stark, who was suffering from official corruption, agreed to Taney and embarked on the road to politics with the goal of eradicating corruption. The only thing that surprised Jack was that Stark did not. He chose Mason City as his starting point, but directly placed his goal in the position of the higher governor of Louisiana.
The movie "The Kings" is adapted from the classic film "A Generation of Heroes" that has won seven Oscar nominations. The film uses the history of the fortune of Louisiana Governor Hu Long as its theme, exposing the darkness of American politics and making a sensation across the United States with its distinctive attacking style. As the remake of "The Kings" is also worth looking forward to. It is rare for Sean Penn, Jude Law, Winslet and Hopkins to gather so many big names in a film, and the only one that has this kind of situation. The reason may be the film's director and screenwriter-Stephen Zelion, the gold medal screenwriter of "New York Gangs", "Schindler's List", "The Pianist" and other films. With a wonderful story, an excellent screenwriter and a group of excellent actors, "The Kings" is undoubtedly an eye-catching film. As a political exposure film, the speech scene is absolutely the top priority. The first climax of the film occurred in a speech by Sean Penn. At this time, Stark had already understood that Tyney supported his candidacy because a candidate for governor who represented the rich class wanted him to divert the votes representing middle and lower opponents. A redneck-looking himself is actually just a puppet playing a role of diversion, and Tyney doesn't want him to win at all. However, when the puppet realized this, the spark of resistance erupted from him surprised everyone, including Jack, who was watching the excitement...
At the corner of a noisy and contrasting rural gathering, Willis Stark began. After the first speech challenging the fate, all the grievances, all the anger, all the accusations were interpreted by Sean Penn with very violent and exaggerated gestures and expressions. Sincere and even crazy words touched everyone around him. Perhaps Stark had been awkward and timid before, but at this moment, Stark seemed to burn his entire life in his speech. Wonderful? success? No, this is a rare classic in the history of American cinema. Let us put aside all the speculation and anxiety about the ending of the film, enjoy this moment to the fullest, and enjoy the most glorious performance of Sean Penn!
