justice is a gamble

Top actors, top writers, top movies. I like this movie very much, every actor is so appropriate, every plot is so wonderful and delicate.
We are accustomed to evil retribution, and good retribution, and we are rarely willing to explore in depth who is the real murderer. When we saw the behavior of the two soldiers at the beginning of the film, we intuitively believed that this was a vicious incident, even if they did not deliberately want it. Murder is also the result of their malicious bullying of others. But it seems that everything is not so simple. When everyone wants to simply define this matter, everyone goes back to their own homes and finds their mothers, everything is going to be all right, things suddenly become complicated, the heroine refuses to give up, the soldiers Don't give up for your own dignity. The masses were dissatisfied, "Why do you feel that you are innocent, that is, you killed people, but you are too embarrassed to complain?" The matter is not that simple. Red, you'll see that things are not that simple. The whole case was just revealed to the audience little by little.
The army is indeed a special place. This place is mysterious and solemn. We know very little about them. The only thing that may be brought back is a little knowledge of discipline. It is this kind of unspoken rule that is unclear but actually exists, which makes our justice impossible to assert, because without evidence, we cannot win the trust of others. The little cousin said it well: It does't matter what i believe, it does matter what i can prove. It is the same throughout the ages, if you want to fight against those deep rivers flowing under the society, what you must have is ability, courage and luck.
On the other side, No. 1 shows the image of a bad guy. He is arrogant, arrogant, and disrespectful. To his subordinates, he is terrifying. He is a dutiful soldier, but he is not a dutiful citizen. The heroine is A rigorous, down-to-earth, serious and persistent character, but too rigorous, lacking a hint of cunning and agility. Her rigor and courage are her strengths, but also her weaknesses. The male protagonist, handsome, smart, willful, cynical, but in fact has a heart that is afraid of failure, he has been running away, although he is smart, but he is afraid of failure, he has an excellent father, so he can not accept his own failure, so A group of people, the game between them, there is no romantic and warm picture, only each other's choices and thinking. The film of more than 2 hours shows a complete case in a compact way, which is thought-provoking.
Although there is a deliberate exaggeration at the end of the film, it will not detract from the meaning of the film. This is a confrontation between people and between people and self. It is a multiple-choice question, but in fact, there is no correct answer in life. The duty of a soldier is to obey orders, but the duty of a soldier is to protect the weak and the weak. There is no answer in life, but everyone must take responsibility for their own actions, believe what they insist on, and do not surrender to themselves.
Justice is a gamble, which comes from the belief in one's own heart, and is the power of justice.

    7.6 is not as exciting as the legend, I finally waited until the climax of the soup against Nicholson, I did not expect to use such an unreliable method

    After the case was settled, Corporal Dawson understood the noble truth of the military - protecting the weak, rather than abandoning and oppressing the weak. This may also be an ideal that the director and screenwriter hope to convey to the world. From a higher level, the army should fight for protection, not aggression.

A Few Good Men quotes

  • Col. Jessup: [after Danny casually and dispectfully requests Santiago's transfer order during lunch in Cuba] You see Danny, I can deal with the bullets, and the bombs, and the blood. I don't want money, and I don't want medals. What I do want is for you to stand there in that faggoty white uniform and with your Harvard mouth extend me some fucking courtesy. You gotta ask me nicely.

  • Galloway: But my feeling is that if this case is handled in the same fast-food, slick-ass ' Persian Bazaar manner with which you seem to handle everything else, something's gonna get missed. And I wouldn't be doing my job if I allowed Dawson and Downey to spend any more time in prison than absolutely necessary, because their attorney had pre-determined the path of least resistance.
