Audiences with a slight sense of discovery can see that this is an American theme film that runs through the concept of value input. In the windy East Berlin interface, in the hand-to-hand negotiation room, and on the bridge of bleak wind and rain, when Tom Hanks played the New York lawyer James Donovan calmly dealt with the mission of fulfilling the mission, representing the constitutional lawyer The image of national citizens and lonely heroes is admired and praised. The film has also completed the value transfer of the persistence of the individual to the law and the persistence of the rights of human nature.
So for film practitioners, in fact, the most important thing to learn is how to express a slightly blunt value with a strong background of the times in a reasonable, vivid and appropriate manner, and enter the hearts of the audience. This is the most obvious aspect of the film. The place is also what Chinese film needs to learn and ponder the most on its way forward.
For example, we can see Rudolf Abel (Mark Rylance), a Soviet intelligence agent, perform extremely well, and he has won multiple titles of best supporting actor. We don’t know whether the real spy is so full of artistic talent and mastery in painting, but in the play, through the depiction of painting techniques, this character is full of three-dimensionality and attraction. Mark Rylance is very powerful in controlling the details. Facing the detective who came to arrest him, he kept the old man's cowering and cowardice, dull and dull. But when James cracked down on his mind, he realized that this lawyer would really try to defend him out of morals. The same posture and a few extremely subtle expression changes showed his deep insight into the current situation. , The deep aura of a senior spy permeated.
James Donovan’s own modeling is equally complete and blameless. He used to be a lawyer who was reluctant to talk because of business interests; he was a good husband and father in front of his family, protecting the feelings of his family as much as possible, and withstanding the wind and rain from the outside; when he came to Berlin alone, he was so determined , Calm and depressed.
The scene of the dialogue between James and the Soviet ambassador was very clever. Two scheming negotiators sat opposite each other. The camera was used to explain in the middle of the scene, and then the close-ups were used to face the speakers one by one, each retaining its own cards and testing the boundaries of the other. People are very addicted to it.
After all, Spielberg once again used his best film language to describe the environment, the color of the picture, the tense atmosphere, and the contradictions and hostility. It was lifelike and hit people's hearts directly, and once again completed the humanistic care and successful interpretation of historical events. It is hoped that Chinese films can also achieve such narrative skills in the themes conveyed by the theme value.

    The main melody is also the most upright fan among the 8 nominated films in 2016. The quality is not good, but it is a bit outdated after all. Some areas of the United States’ self-defeating are not bad, but compared with the still prejudiced description of the Soviet Union and East Germany, and the saintization of the male protagonist, this improvement is actually nothing (not as good as [good night] ]Woolen cloth……). A few subtle moments across the Berlin Wall are very moving.

    The main theme of the United States is clearly superior to that of the Cold War, but Spielberg is very good at making such movies "good-looking", and making a moving interpretation of his own values. The depiction of characters in the larger background is also not absent. Tom Hanks plays a character with a strong conscience and is skilled and exquisite. But the most eye-catching is Mark Rylance, who plays the role of Soviet spy. Shakespeare’s big names play, and the acting aura is first-class and powerful! It is a satisfaction to watch these two acts.
