A free country has a bleak past

The most memorable sentence in the film is when the lawyer James was talking to the CIA: I am a Polish child, you are of German descent, but what makes us all Americans, there is only one thing, the only one. The thing, that is the book of rules.
This is the lawyer's own creed, and it is the reason why he became a "standing man" in the end. Of course, something I didn't think of before came to my mind after watching "The Pianist" last night. Maybe it's the Poles' feelings for the Soviets that made the lawyer insist so.
Many American films are promoting national strength, promoting freedom, and spreading this charming American dream. Some things seem really exaggerated, but this makes more elites join the country, which is also the terrible thing about this country, because it makes everyone in the country have a sense of presence, I have the idea of ​​recasting the home I want, which is the strength of America, the sense of belonging.
People are doing it, the sky is watching, what is the persistence in the heart, what can this stubbornness be replaced by, under the cold eyes of the surrounding, whether the self-confident heart can still be strong in the countless cold eyes.
James did it. And the great country of the United States keeps getting stronger, and it is precisely because warriors like him keep strengthening this beautiful and charming country with their own flesh and blood.
America, I'm definitely going back. Why go back, because there is a memory that is not very comfortable, but very comfortable and relaxing.
Don't forget your original purpose, come on.
