not bad

I had a tight throat a few times while watching the Mandela movie. Part of it was when black people were being violent, and part of it was when black people started to violence against white people. Frankly speaking, this film does not seriously present the cruelty of black people being killed and assassinated. At the beginning of the film, it only downplays that a friend of Mann was caught in the police station and beaten to death because he did not have an ID card. In reality, many of the victims suffered much more miserable torture than him, and the film was also used in the same way. The movie "Skull Nation" is richer than "Man". But even if it's just such an understatement, even if it's just a matter of compressing the decades of discrimination, oppression, and isolation of black people in South Africa into more than a hundred minutes, I see "Man" in the context of such a statement, trying to restore a " "Humanity" Mandela, a Mandela who cheated when he was young, beat and scolded his wife, and used violence against tyranny. At the same time, I have seen his transformation, and I believe that the 20-year prison life has made a person more calm and wise (but it would be good to talk about this part more, it is best to make a movie about this) process of transformation). See his destiny. So, don't take this film as a record of historical subjects, and don't try to find the so-called brilliance of human nature in it. Just watch it present a legendary person, and you will think it's not bad, okay.

Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom quotes
-
Nelson Mandela: I have walked a long walk to freedom. It has been a lonely road, and it is not over yet. I know that my country, was not made to be a land of hatred. No one is born hating another person because the color of his skin. People learn to hate. They can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart.
