It reminds me of "Eavesdropping Storm", which is also calm, without drama, without strong ups and downs. After seeing half of it, I paused and rested to avoid wanting to sleep because it was too "boring". For this style of film, I have always been interested in the connotation it wants to express. Respect historical facts, what do I see through this history? It is a confrontation with authority and just truth. If there are no mistakes, of course we all hope that we can follow the truth, but there will always be mistakes in reality. When the "authority" makes mistakes, it will lose its credibility, which is disastrous for the government. To manage a large organization well, the most important thing that cannot be lost is credibility. Therefore, the authorities tried their best to cover up their mistakes. Of course, the purpose was to preserve their own authority. The people of a country refused to admit their mistakes and then blamed the Jews. This was also to preserve a country's national self-confidence and belief in the country. Compared with Major Cargill's insistence on the truth and justice he believes in, he really does not have any obsessions or emotional tendencies, but just wants to do what he should do. It is precisely because he has no obsessions that the film is calm and objective. That's what makes me like this movie so much.
In the end, Cargill took the seat of the person he once opposed. This is nothing to be embarrassed or ironic about, because Cargill has always been doing the right thing with the trend. He doesn't need any doctrine and position, so even if seven There is no so-called irony for him to become a general a few years later. As Dressford puts it: You have nothing to be sorry for, it's because you've been doing what you're supposed to do.
