There is nothing right or wrong, that's how it is.

Ang Lee made war films like literary films, with a little freshness in the pictures. The blue sky, white clouds, lush, vast and magnificent southern pictures really don't look like watching a war film. The music is also well matched. However, when the civil war is always uncomfortable, there are also internal struggles among Southerners. It is no wonder that Americans don't like to see this film so much. Luo Luo was very touching when reading the mother's letter. There is an echo before and after the film, from wedding to wedding. The grudge between Rod and Anderson is the same as the grudge between the North and the South. "There is nothing right or wrong, that's how it is." Rod did not shoot in the end, and everyone was relieved. Since there is nothing right or wrong, why shoot just for anger. Now that we look directly at the war, it is a kind of progress.
Toby Maguire is really Ang Lee’s "favorite". From the little boy in "Ice Storm" to the show in "Riding with the Devil", this shy smiling and soft-hearted child grew up someday later For Spider-Man, his spring is here. Anderson, who has always been the enemy of Rhodes, is played by Jonathan Les Meyers. This handsome guy is obviously gloomy. In "The End of the Game", he eats a bowl and watches the pot blindly climb into the upper class speculators. It's his true color acting, and his temperament is too good.

    Ang Lee's films are tepid, but good-looking. Before, they had no clear concept because of their lack of distinct personality. After watching this film, I was sure that his characters all live in their own universe, surrounded by The hustle and bustle of him is nothing but fulfillment for him to finally know himself and make a choice. So lonely and secretive.

    4.5. #148MinuteGuideEdition# The very valuable perspective of internality not only disintegrates the black-and-white binary opposition to which the legitimacy of liberating black slaves in the traditional sense is directed, but also re-examines from the perspective of the defeated side—the South This war has focused the narrative context on individual characters. Ang Lee put their fate in the grand narrative scroll. They chose, witnessed, questioned, and resisted again and again, gradually in the contradiction between themselves and their surroundings. Reflect, realize and grow.

  • [Jake Roedel contemplating the Lawrence raid]

    Jake: It's just bad luck citizens finding out just how bad luck can be.

  • Pitt Mackeson: Why you little Dutch son of a bitch. You do what I tell you or I'll kill you.

    Jake: [pulls his gun a few inches from Pitt's face] And when do you figure to do this mean thing to me Mackeson? Is this very moment convenient for you? It is for me.
