Named "I Love My Country"

What Hardy was going to say, it was not until the end of the movie that Sean said it: "I love my country, i'd kill for it, i'd die for it"!

This sentence is not only what Hadi wants to say, but also what ewan wants to say, and even more what ashraf wants to say! It's a pity that there's only one thing I can say - stand to the end.

The film seems to have a clear stance, and the right and wrong are simple and clear, but this sentence of ewan completely confuses our view of right and wrong and values: no matter from either side of the opposition, isn't this sentence true, isn't it the foundation of a foothold? ? ! Where should we stand? !

Hardy has never dared to clearly express his original intention, which is to step on 10,000 feet. But just like Ashraf's wonderful "bashing" in the class - the powerful forces drive thousands of people in the name of "patriotism", wielding guns, and robbing things that don't belong to them at all. Ancient and modern, all over the world, this kind of thing has been repeated over and over again, and now it has just changed its name: anti-terrorism!

Yes, the winner is the king and the loser is Kou. History is written by the winners, and the losers cannot choose their own "titles". In fact, the only difference between the two is the "title", and the rest, such as means, are all useless.

It was not until this sentence from ewan that I realized the various settings, lines and subtleties of Hardy in the film, and I had to watch it a second time.

The protagonist of this film seems to be ewan, but it is actually ashraf; this film seems to describe the extraordinary courage and loyalty of British agents to serve the country. Hardy allows us to understand what is "terrorism" from the other side, or really understand - "I love my country"!

Cleanskin quotes

  • Ash: The American forefathers fought the British, beat them hands down, and now what are they? They're the biggest superpower on this planet. Why? Because violence is the supreme authority all authorities derive their power and legitimacy from. Law is completely irrelevant in the face of true force. That applies to any country.

  • [last lines]

    Ewan: The press have been sent copies of these files. I'm sure you were responsible.

    Charlotte: These files are nonsense you made up, no one will believe it.

    Ewan: They might - if you buckle under the pressure of the story.

    Charlotte: You're out of your mind.

    Ewan: It's in my nature.
