Nothing to talk about, just sign up

After reading "The Trial of the Chicago Seven", I always feel a little unfinished. In fact, this story can be told a lot. If it is extended, I actually feel that there is still a lot to tell. For us viewers, even if we don't know the ending of this real historical event, we should be able to guess the outcome of the trial from the direction of the storyline. So what I am looking forward to is how to end it, and what kind of way can I use to make the defendant who has been depressed from the beginning to the end have a big counterattack as much as possible. The answer given by the director is very clear: sign up by name Bar. "Dennis Waterjeep, Private, 18 years old; Eric Allenbosch, Private, 21 years old, Robert..." One name after another was read loudly, and one after another stood up and raised their hands. hand, pay homage. There is not much to say, the so-called gorgeous decoration of words seems so pale at the moment. Don't fix those fancy debating skills, don't fix those little tricks on and off the court, during these more than 150 days of repeated and arguing trials, those soldiers who participated in the Vietnam War were dealing with the god of death, and one after another young people were sent to What about the battlefield. When the federal prosecutor Schultz, played by Jon Joseph, also stood up to pay his respects to the victims, the movie reached its climax at this moment, and it also drew a most reasonable stop at this moment. I admit that when I saw the name reading, I was instantly excited, not because of the surprise and surprise of the director's handling, but when a person's name is read out completely, you will feel a kind of most primitive and simple. The power is hitting your chest. It seems to be just a simple name or a symbol, but it represents a fresh life. Running and jumping, smiling and crying, breathing freely, is just a name in the eyes of others, but to the owner of this name, this is the basis for his existence in this world. In "The Defender", Song Kanghao opened his eyes wide, and shouted at the defendant with blue veins, "Country? What exactly is the country the witnesses said?" They are all created by the people, and the country is the people!" He argued with hoarse voices. However, it was useless, the overwhelming evidence was still ignored, the appeal failed, the testimony was deleted, and finally, because of the demonstration in the street, he became the defendant and went to trial. At this time, he was very calm and indifferent, as if he had seen through this cold world for a long time, which formed a strong contrast with the arrogant him before. But then the real contrast shock began when the presiding judge began to read out the names of the lawyers defending him. "Lawyer Jin Changbi, lawyer Cui Yuanzai,..." One name after another was read, one lawyer after another stood up. At this time, the soundtrack of the film sounded, and the camera shot showed Song Kanghao's smiling face and the crowd behind him. , it stopped abruptly at the climax, but it brought the strongest psychological impact to the viewers. I was terrified of my mom calling me my name as a kid, yes, my full name. Because when my mom usually calls me that, I guess I'm probably in trouble again. Usually, I would shudder in my heart in conditioned reflex, and quickly think about what "good" things I have done recently. For my mother, calling out my name is to tell me in advance that my mother has nothing to talk about with you, and is ready to clean up you. So let's keep it simple, the next time you encounter this kind of bastards who call right and wrong, and don't distinguish between black and white, if you really can't make sense with them, then report your name. The content is not important, the signature should be capitalized. Don't worry, just line up and write. Every black and white letter written down is a sharp arrow that pierces the enemy.
