The small arm can't twist the thigh after all

Alan Sorkin grasped the pulse of reality and told the audience that we are experiencing a new year in 1968. When the people in the bar were celebrating, how many people saw the blood flowing out of the dark glass? For an immoral trial, the evidence and the verdict are not important, only the names are still alive. At the same time, Sorkin still believes in the United States. Through the trial, he expressed his expectations for this country. The villain sitting in the White House can be a villain like Nixon, but there is no permanent injustice and low tide, because every four years will be overthrown. Chance to come again. As the title at the beginning of the first episode of "Newsroom" said-the United States is not the greatest country in the world, but it can be. Sorkin is a true patriot.

Alan Sorkin's long-awaited historical legal film recreates the pre-convicted and manipulated trial after the anti-Vietnam War movement in 1968. The filming is very neat, the court debate and the past flashbacks are cross-narrated, the lines are still as sharp and sonorous as always, but unfortunately the audio-visual language is still relatively rigid, the group portraits are focused, and some characters are not portrayed as flesh and blood, but the performances of several old actors Convincing (Cohen, Rylance, Michael Keaton, and Frank Langella as the judge). Launched at this time, it is quite intentional to use the past to satirize the present, hoping to turn the tide at a critical moment. (8.0/10)
