All The Way

I watched this movie for Lao Bai and HBO.

The overall feeling of the film is rather dull, which may be caused by the fact that it is to restore the history. If you don't like political movies, you probably won't be able to watch it. If you want to find the feeling of House of Cards in this film, I am afraid you will be even more disappointed.

Lao Bai's acting skills are not to be mentioned. He has a southern accent, and the range of movements is a bit large, which shows Linden's irritability and stubbornness to the fullest. Of course, there is also weakness when trying to retreat. That's how good actors are. Looking at Linden, there is no shadow of Lao Bai at all.

Learn about a piece of history through a film. Although you can't believe it all, but watching one more movie will give you one more perspective. He doesn't look at anything, he's just a narrow circle, like a frog at the bottom of a well.

    Sen. Richard Russell: Oh, Lady Bird, it was delicious, but I just couldn't possibly, no. Thank you.

    Lyndon B. Johnson: Hey, what about me? Aren't you going to offer me any more gravy?

    Lady Bird Johnson: Oh, honey, I'd like to, but I can't.

    Lyndon B. Johnson: Bird's got me on a diet. Got Zephyr there in kitchen weighing my plates for every meal. Ridiculous!

    Sen. Richard Russell: [Snarling] Your wife doesn't want you to get too big for your britches. An entirely understandable concern.

    Lady Bird Johnson: [as Johnson smiles smugly, Lady Bird leaves the room] I think I'll see how Zephyr coming with that cobbler.

  • Lyndon B. Johnson: Clausewitz said "Politics is war by other means."... Bullshit. Politics is War... Period. You know how you win a campaign, by not losing it. I only lost one election my whole life. The son of a bitch stole it from me in the final seconds with a handful of fake votes, I will carry the pain of that with me to my dying day. But I'll tell you what, nobody will ever do me that way again, It'll be some other way.
