justice stands up

Seeing the movie come to an end in tears, in this era of unspoken rules and loneliness of justice, I haven't been moved by this real sense of public justice for a long time.
This case, which actually happened in American history, allows us to see a ray of light in public justice. In the United States in 1928, it was also an era when officials protected each other and the judiciary messed around. An independent single mother found her lonely child missing on the night she missed an appointment with her child. She called over and over again until the police came to check the situation in person. For 5 months, she called the police station and the Missing Persons Department every day until there was One day the chief of the police station came to her company in person and told him that the child had returned. When she was overjoyed, she rushed to the train station to pick up the child, but found that the child who claimed to be her son was not her child at all. He even shortened his height by 4 cm. From then on, she began the long journey of asking the police station to find her real son. Her persistence finally revealed the inside story of the long-corrupted police station. She was criticized in various ways, and finally, with the help of a pastor, she was able to stand. Stand up to corrupt police departments and even question the entire government. With the attention and support of the people all over the country...
I always remember the actress who heard that her child had been found and couldn't help crying in front of her colleagues, played by Angelina Jolie, who has always shown the image of beating women As a single mother, at first I was worried that it would be too glamorous. Obviously, I was worrying too much. She looked at the child's care, missed the child's haggard every night, pretended to be calm and helpless in the lunatic asylum, heard the verdict in court with tears, and always waited for the child's firmness. Throughout the film, let us be impressed by such a thorough mother's love, the battle of justice and corruption propped up by mother's love eventually turned into a struggle between citizens and the government.
Fortunately, in that era of government corruption, the voice of justice can still be expressed through radio, newspapers, and people's demonstrations, and become a legitimate support force. At the same time, we have also seen that a government agency that only does superficial efforts and has an indifferent attitude towards the people will delay the happy and beautiful family life of many people. As a government agency that is supposed to serve the people, when its attitude is too high, rights and obligations are put before the cart before the horse, which will become an incentive for absurd and corrupt social ethos, and misfortune will sneak into the daily life of every citizen, brewing more misfortune.
Americans have always paid attention to fairness, justice and human rights. The two political parties take turns ruling and supervising each other; judicial power, executive power and judicial power are independent of each other and check and balance each other; in the court, everything is based on physical evidence, and try to let legal facts be proved by objective and real objects to reduce human speculation. Error, if the whole fact cannot be proved, the suspect is considered innocent. Justice has two big locks on procedural fairness and substantive fairness. Historically, Simpson's blood gloves were because the police collected evidence against the law, and he was able to escape the punishment of the law. acquitted. Real justice is when we can return all basic rights to a person who violates social justice, and punish them. Corruption always accompanies the shadows, and the struggle is always endless. For China, there is still a long way to go on the road of universal justice. This is not only related to our 5,000-year-old feudal system and the belated bourgeois revolution in modern times. , there are still many social and historical factors that stand in the way, but it can be seen that the way to achieve justice through mutual constraints through various means is historically directed. From this perspective, the ability of the masses and other organizations to effectively monitor the government's wrongdoing is a step forward.
However, sometimes it is a problem to overcorrect justice. For example, in recent years, animal protection organizers around the world advocate the fairness and justice of protecting animals. At first, people were not allowed to eat all kinds of rare animals. This is understandable. Later, Don't wear fur, throw rotten eggs and other garbage on other people's clothes. Isn't this destroying the private property of citizens? Why don't the police arrest these people; Standing on a street corner and educating others not to eat X-meat, I think this group of people just want to show themselves, and use animals as an excuse every season; recently, there has been a proposal for ice cream manufacturers to change milk to human milk, saying that I hope people will think about it for a day The feeling of a cow being sucked at night means that you can eat whatever you want and sell it yourself instead of using animals. In my opinion, the suicide of all human beings and their withdrawal from the earth is the greatest protection for animals. It is such a shame to be so hypocritical.
It is not as good as the mother in the film. After being treated unfairly and grieved, she still firmly expects and believes that everything is beautiful, and becomes a part of the beautiful together with herself. Hope to leave it to everyone.

    I have to say that Jolie's performance method has been used in her strong heart before. This kind of story, eighty years later, still happens all the time.

    Eastwood's narrative skills in the lens made me admire to the ground, and his emotions were played between his palms. Angy has really lost her star power this time around. If it weren't for the fact that the plot was too crafty and lost my cool... five stars subjectively, four stars objectively

Changeling quotes

  • Detective Lester Ybarra: If that's how you want it, then I guess we're done here. Tell county jail we're remanding him for trial.

    Arthur Hutchins: Wait. I didn't do anything. I wasn't even here when it happened.

    Detective Lester Ybarra: By pretending to be Walter Collins, you're interfering in a police investigation of a kidnapping and murder. We can try you as accomplice to that murder after the fact. That's too bad. County jail is a lot worse than a juvenile hall or a foster home. It's a lot worse.

    Arthur Hutchins: You can't do that. I'm just a kid.

    Detective Lester Ybarra: Mm. Sanford Clark's a kid, too. Fifteen. He's going to jail. All murderers and their accomplices go to jail. Everybody knows that. Get him out of here. It's out of my hands now.

    Arthur Hutchins: Wait. I don't want to go to jail.

    Detective Lester Ybarra: [pause] Prove it.

    Arthur Hutchins: I... I knew Los Angeles is where they make the Tom Mix movies. I figured if I could meet Tom Mix, maybe he would let me ride on his horse. His horse is named Tony. Did you know that?

  • Dr. Jonathan Steele: According to your file, you believe that the police substituted a fake boy for your son.

    Christine Collins: No, I didn't say he was a fake boy. He's not *my* boy. They brought home the wrong boy. My son is still missing.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: Well, that's strange, because I have here a newspaper article with a photo of you at the train station, welcoming home your son.

    [shows her the article]

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: That is you in the photo, isn't it?

    Christine Collins: Yes.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: So, at first, he was your son and now he's not your son. Has this been going on for a long time? People changing, becoming something other than what they are?

    Christine Collins: People don't change.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: You don't think people change?

    Christine Collins: No, that's not what I...

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: Shh! The police, they're not out to persecute you?

    Christine Collins: No, they're not.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: No, they're not. The police are here to protect you.

    Christine Collins: Yes.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: Really?

    Christine Collins: Yes.

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: Well, that's odd, because when you were admitted, you told the head nurse that the police were conspiring *deliberately* to punish you. So, either the head nurse and the interns are also conspiring to punish you or you're changing your story.

    [pause]

    Dr. Jonathan Steele: Do you often have trouble telling reality from fantasy, Mrs. Collins?

    Christine Collins: No...
