advance and retreat

The domestic translation is "The Lion Enters the Sheep's Mouth". In fact... how should I put it, there are now nude chats and nude exams in China, so this is the nude translation. This phrase comes from the evaluation of the British soldiers by the invincible German army in the early days of World War II, which means that although the British soldiers fought bravely, like lions, the leaders of the army were really faceless.
I wonder why a movie with three superstars Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep and Robert Redford (the latter two are still super acting) starring and directing is so obscure, even with decent subtitles nothing. It is said that Redford is also an Oscar director. In my experience, the quality of a film lies in the director and actors. Do you want this film?
The actors really have nothing to say, Streep, the old witch, is simply a guarantee of quality, and whoever plays it is who. It's not bad for Tom Cruise to play an ambitious politician. He is good at the kind of impulsive and SMART, old-fashioned, slippery and passionate characters. From a technical point of view, the confrontation between the two is not flawed.
But this book...how do I put it...I think Redford didn't know which way to go when he was shooting. I guess the word "objective" was left in his head, but being objective does not mean that he has no direction, no It's just a taste. It was supposed to be a very in-depth film about the Iraq War and international geopolitical thinking, but it turned out to be four dissimilarities for him. He went back and forth with a few lines, and he didn't make a fool of himself. It's a pity The acting skills of the three giants.

Lions for Lambs quotes

  • Todd Hayes: Who never says anything even though he never stops talking.

  • Professor Stephen Malley: The decisions you make now, bud, can't be changed but with years and years of hard work to redo it... And in those years you become something different. Everybody does as the time passes. You get married, you get into debt... But you're never gonna be the same person you are right now. And promise and potential... It's very fickle, and it just might not be there anymore.

    Todd Hayes: Are you assuming I already made a decision? And also that I'll live to regret it?

    Professor Stephen Malley: All I'm saying is that you're an adult now... And the tough thing about adulthood is that it starts before you even know it starts, when you're already a dozen decisions into it. But what you need to know, Todd, no Lifeguard is watching anymore. You're on your own. You're your own man, and the decisions you make now are yours and yours alone from here until the end.
