In social life, we will always face various pressures, and the first one is the pressure of survival. Human alienation always occurs when the pressure of survival distorts human nature and conscience; the progress of civilization is also an effort to bring survival logic and ethical logic into a relatively unified category, so that people, while pursuing justice and truth, Not to face the embarrassment and cruelty of lack of food and clothing, hunger and cold. By reviewing this historical episode of Edward R Murrow's confrontation with McCarthy, the film highlights the solid strength of the American democratic tradition and the brilliance of human rationality and courage. It also shows us that in the face of power and pressure, confrontation and persistence The great courage required-often is Edward R Murrow's unburned cigarette, the tapping of the keyboard in the silent night, and the few seconds of silence behind the greeting of GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK.
As a great figure in the history of American news, Edward R. Murrow, I also know very little, but I am hesitant about the famous McCarthyism. A country with a democratic tradition for nearly a hundred years has actually taken the steps of the "Cultural Revolution"? In reality, however, even for a period like this, we find that a country with more than a century of democratic traditions, through a brave media elite and many conscientious people who fought against it - now called heroes - In their own way, they have withstood the pressure of various parties and defended the dignity of history. Some people say that the film is related to the political reality after the United States dispatched troops to Iraq, and some people say that this film is reminiscent of the domestic weekly exchange of blood. This can not help but agitated our hearts, who are separated by oceans. Reflecting on some past events can indeed help us discover the absurdity of reality, but it is the sense of powerlessness in the face of the absurd that truly makes people feel scared. Praising and calling for heroes does not mean that we must practice as heroes who have killed themselves. This is the local philosophy. Therefore, there are many reporters in the country, but it is difficult to have an uncrowned king. It is precisely because of this that the lines in the film are particularly striking - We are proud because from the beginning of this nation man can walk upright. No matter who he is or who she is. He can walk upright and meet his friend or his enemy. And he does not fear that because that enemy may be in a position of great power that he can be suddenly thrown in jail to rot there without charges and with no recourse to justice.
Good night, and good luck!
