not my style

Maybe I lacked the background of the event, or I was a bit blind, so the threshold for me to watch this movie has become much higher. I feel that the whole movie is very calm, without sensationalism or any atmosphere, just It seems that the situation at that time is like this. The core of the story is actually a series of reactions brought about by the more common unjust, false and wrong cases. Otherwise, art comes from life. There should not be too many things like this in history. Everyone puts out a scapegoat for their own benefit. , Anyway, the general public is best to fool, just like ordinary people, if we don’t know that we can drive into the Forbidden City if it is not because of someone’s own Weibo? Between the classes is the sky. But I still feel admiration. There will be such people who will guard the fairness and truth. They can ignore it and have a good life, but their conscience can't live. This is why I always remain a little optimistic about human nature. There are always some people who use their blood and kindness, rationality and love to guard the bottom line of society, no matter if it is such an era that needs to throw their heads and blood, or they need to pay for the truth. Life, or in a peaceful age like ours, is free from temptation and fear of hardships and dangers. It’s not that the aliens have to be burned to death. The greater the power, the darker the heart. Give others tolerance and respect. How great is love for world peace.

But movies really are not my food

    It's a pity that such a work with current significance has fallen into the hysterical battle between the two camps of Tingbo and Tingbo, causing the important democratic spirit to fall behind. Polanski's decades of experience in political works make the whole film look thrilling and unconventional, and the audience's emotions are constantly mobilized without falling into sentimental. Should this film be regarded as Polanski's self-accusation? Maybe, but there is no point in discussing this, Polanski and Dreyfus are not comparable. In fact, the story is not narrated from the perspective of Dreyfus, but through an officer who can put justice and facts above his personal likes and dislikes. He would rather put himself in danger than fight against collusion with each other. that power. This kind of power system existed in ancient times, and it also exists today. Any complaints that challenge it must be heard.

    The shots are very historian, but Polanski's level should be more than that. The film wants to tell the banal evil under anti-Semitism, but the irony is that all the protagonists choose to obey this system and guard their inner justice with a posture of lawlessness. In contrast, Polanski’s escape in reality is very small: between the egg and the high wall, people will choose to stand on the egg, but no one will defend an egg that jumps over the wall, because it is a pair of other eggs. It's not fair. ——I think this is why Polanski can never wait for his own Zola.
