The protagonist Damien has an unforgettable face, and the characters portrayed are all classics, and every wrinkle is a drama. I first watched his "Homeland Security" and "Billions", and looking back, they are not inferior. Group portraits, one-man shows, big scenes, and micro scenes are remarkable. It is rare that a man show does not choose the audience at all.

    The WWII soldier who quoted Shakespeare Henry V from Harvard, right? It's a pity that you didn't know that Henry V lied to them. A good study of literature. Poor political science. Of course, what movie rhetoric wants is this kind of philosophical obliteration effect. So I still give it five stars, love and hate.
