what have you learned

I'm blind in American history, so it's not easy to watch movies. Although I don't know Vietnam, but at the beginning of the rainforest battlefield, I inexplicably think of the Vietnam War. This is the impression left by what I have seen before. Then a lot of names of US presidents with familiar but limited names were mentioned, and I was stunned. The Pentagon is the Pentagon, I learned it, BTW, I'm also watching Wanda Vision recently, and I learned about the hexagon in it. It's all geometry, and it's fate. Finally, when I mentioned the Watergate incident, I only knew it was a scandal, and Baidu only knew why it was mentioned. Then I suddenly remembered, is the case of repeatedly whipping the corpse in the lie to me I watched before Nixon? If not, it will be treated as if I didn't watch the drama seriously + face blindness.

In fact, I saw someone mentioning this in a group of Amway's feminist works, so I looked for it and began to think it was a story of a powerful woman in the workplace, but I didn't expect it to be about the process of awakening. And I saw that the heroine was still a gentle and peaceful lady in the middle and late stage. Sometimes she even trembled when she spoke, and her eyes were like tears. She could see hesitation and all kinds of men who made me face blind. The characters appear one after another, and I don't understand why her stammering "let's go" is very feminist. She didn't collect and organize the literature, and she didn't write and proofread the articles? But the explanation of Ben's wife later made me understand, hey, I'm really stupid and shallow, ignoring her identity, and ignoring the background of the times, I remembered that in the first half of the movie, she couldn't master the speech in the all-male meeting, and was scolded in the office. The man talked about his father and deceased husband face to face, but he calmed down in the office alone, and finally realized the bravery in "let's go". With the support of my daughter and the help of the female court staff (to be honest, I want to complain here, why her male colleague almost entered the venue at the same time as she did not go through the special passage), and there were a lot of women watching when I left, which made me feel The happiness of women helping each other. What you want to see is also satisfied. At the same time, at a time when reality is so complicated, the rest of the discussion in the film makes me feel less exciting.

    Defending freedom of the press is an ideal and belief for Bradlee, so he has been steadfast and enthusiastic from beginning to end. The change in Mrs. Graham's attitude has shown us that there are countless trade-offs and various power games behind it. The charm of movies makes working in journalism a compelling one. I am very fascinated, and I am grateful to all the independent thinking people who make the American spirit always attractive.

    We're not talking about a documentary, we're talking about a feature film. So let's stop arguing about the facts or the truth, but from the point of view of the film itself. From the scheduling, rhythm, performance, editing and other aspects of "movie", 5 stars are well deserved.

The Post quotes

  • Roger Clark: If you got the study from the same source, that would amount to collusion.

    Ben Bagdikian: Yeah, we could all be executed at dawn.

    Roger Clark: And we could be held in contempt of court - which means Mr. Bradlee and Mrs. Graham could go to jail. Mr. Bagdikian, how likely is it that your source and the Times source are the same person?

  • Kay Graham: When Phil died it was just - I was 45 years old and I had never held - I never had to hold a job in my life. But, I just, I loved the paper, you know. I do. I do so love the paper. I don't want it to be my fault. I don't want to be the one - I don't want to let Phil and my father and all of you kids and everybody down.
