It's all the wine's fault

Who invented the alcohol thing, and how it was invented, it is impossible to verify. But this wonderful thing that has accompanied human civilization for thousands of years has made people all over the world flock to it regardless of race, color, gender, or age. However, just like this, countless people are intoxicated by it, and the infinite charm has also become the inducement and catalyst for countless evils and disasters. So at 0:00 on January 17, 1920, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the Prohibition Act, came into effect. Under the law, it is illegal to manufacture, sell or even transport beverages with an alcohol content of more than 0.5%. Drinking alcohol alone at home is not a crime, but drinking with friends or having a party is illegal, and can be fined up to $1,000 and jailed for six months. Until the passage of the 21st Amendment to the Constitution on December 5, 1933, the 18th Amendment was repealed. It was also the only constitutional amendment to be repealed in American history.

In the United States, the country that most respects freedom, the promulgation and final abolition of Prohibition has become the most criticized piece of history in the history of the country, and writing the stories that happened in this history has become a major hobby of many Hollywood directors. The best movie I've seen in a while is "Once Upon a Time in America." And the story described in this film also happened at that historical stage. Three brothers with different personalities brew and run a bootleg wine business in a small town, but the arrival of a new federal agent disrupts the town and the three brothers' business and life.

In the film "Transformers" male Shia LaBeouf plays the younger brother of the three brothers. He has been protected by the two brothers for a long time, and he appears cowardly and weak in character and physique. However, when the family gradually fell into precariousness and the safety of family members was greatly threatened, the little brother gradually grew up, and eventually became a fierce man on his own, and in the final bloody battle, he helped his brother to secure the victory in one fell swoop.

The story starts from a point and describes the efforts of people in the pursuit of freedom and justice in the American society at that time. It also shows the national spirit of "America". The pursuit of freedom and bravery has penetrated into the bone marrow of all people in this country. Among them, watching this movie can also reflect from one aspect, why the United States, the country, has repeated shootings, but it is always unable to ban guns successfully.

    In the end, when Tom Hardy fell into the water, I thought I went through so much and survived. Drowning myself is a joke Dare to ruin the image but it's a bit too much

    The characters are poorly created, and the story is boring.
