// Conspiracy Theory Enthusiasts //

Always interested in conspiracy theories. Anything is one thing on the surface, but another behind it, involving the intricate relationships of various forces, rights, politics, economics, conspiracies... All kinds of factors are mixed together to intrigue the authorities. It's all done, one set on the surface and one set behind the back, so it's not insidious.

For example, the delicate relationship between Lessons 9 and 6 of Public Security in "Ghost in the Shell", the government and other forces, "Spy Impossible" in "Wolf", and the President, Minister of Defense, The N-angle relationship between THE BOSS and the "Patriots"... Whenever I see these things, it is like watching the footage of the last charge of the People's Liberation Army in the Anti-Japanese War movie when I was a child. There are cartoon game consoles in front of them. There are very few in the movies, and some of them are only 007. It can only be said that they are pure spy movies, action movies, and the words of "playing conspiracy" and the first few cartoon games. The plot ratio of the machine is really too pediatric.

Then I watched "Munich Massacre".

It's hard to say the positioning of this movie. There are also 007 spy elements, "Good Night and Good Luck"-style documentaries, and parts that discuss human nature. There are also a little "Wolf"-style espionage system and political forces mixed together. The "conspiracy" component.

At the beginning of the movie, the action of terrorists was played, and it was not interesting to watch it. The old blockbusters have old things. But it didn't take long for the screen to turn to the meeting between the old lady (Mrs. Meir, the former Prime Minister of Israel) and the N generals, and I felt that the movie became interesting, a bit like the seel in "EVA"-they held the truth behind the scenes, Deep in the vortex of wrong and complex forces, every decision must consider the relationship with other forces, and every word has the potential to change the fate of the entire human race... Well, that's cool~~


// The characters hidden in the "inner world" //

There is also a similar "enjoyment" in another place, which is the "trick" of the assassination team and the intelligence source Louis (but the assassination team seems to have been at a disadvantage). My favorite character in this movie is Louis too.

In cartoons or movies, there is usually a very passionate protagonist who runs around, saving the world, whether it is a hero or a beauty, or he is the busiest, but every time the plot ends, there is a major turning point. Someone's conspiracy, the protagonist was used again. That so-and-so may not have high martial arts skills, may not be handsome, and may not show up, but he can always control the situation coldly behind the scenes... Every time I watch a movie or cartoon, I love this kind of character. .

Louis is a bit similar, but not completely, after all, in the movie he is just the spokesman for his family. But at least it's "much stronger" than the protagonist.

"We can find almost anyone, anywhere." -Louis ad words

Wisdom, rational, gloomy, expressionless, hiding behind the scenes, mastering everything, outsiders, brief appearances, peaceful exits - love to die Such a role.


// It's convenient to talk about human nature// The

Palestinian-Israeli conflict, who is good and who is bad, can't be solved by more than N historians and politicians for N years, how can just a director be so good? The opportunistic way is to talk about "human nature": the family of the assassination team leader, the little girl before the explosion, the one-minute short-lived "friendship" between the assassin and the assassin on the balcony, the innocent newlyweds... ...to compromise this conflict with the good feelings of mankind - I don't say Jews are good, I don't say Arabs are good, I just say that everyone actually has a pitiful side - so I don't blame anyone .

This method seems to be a bit vulgar, everyone can do it, but it may not be able to shoot well, the key is to master the "degree". For example, the scene on the balcony, with just a few words, makes people feel just right, and it can play "humanity" without being provocative. But the scene with the little girl playing the piano always felt a little old-fashioned.

The only plot in the movie that does not take "humanity" as a weight, but instead confronts the Palestinian-Israeli conflict directly is the dialogue between the protagonist and the Arab bodyguard.

I am very impressed with a line: We want to be nations. Home is everything.


// Strength issue //

I checked the organization that the protagonist's assassination team is affiliated to - Mossad, an Israeli intelligence organization, which seems to be in a fight with the CIA and KGB, and is quite powerful.

But what I don't understand in the movie is that such a powerful organization has to carry out such an important task, how can it send such a few useless people... I really can't see what's so powerful about them. Compared with the elites of the Public Security Class 9 of "Ghost in the Shell", they are also the masters who were killed in seconds. "Because it's trash, it won't attract attention and won't reveal your identity." The reason seems to be unreasonable.

I think the reason is that in order to show "human nature", Spielberg must let them waste a little bit, so that there will be hesitation, mistakes, and the plot of "human nature".

However, it feels far inferior to the spies in "Ghost in the Shell" and "Wolf" in terms of strength and efficiency.


//Others//

There are several funny things about Mossad on the Internet.

"
At first, the targeted assassination was basically carried out by one or two secret agents. Later, Israel began to use missiles and large artillery shells to bomb the target location, often causing the death of innocent civilians and causing public anger.
"

"Assassination" with missile cannons is too unskilled Bar.

Mossad even has a job offer. Online recruitment of secret agents

----------------------------
Dozens of technical positions are available on the website, including engineers proficient in photography and mechanical construction . In addition, the Mossad needs specialized personnel who are proficient in multiple languages. What exactly? Two of the explicit positions are: an English-speaking waitress and a bus driver.
