"Mom, that man is crazy, I'm so scared." "No, he's not crazy, he's just very sad"

"Twelve Angry Men" has been on my list for a long time as a god-level movie, but unfortunately the original version in 1957 can't find the resources, and I haven't watched it yet. Saw this new Russian remake on TV today and thought it was pretty good, so I'm looking forward to seeing the American original again.

A lot of people say that this flop movie makes me sleepy, but for me, the rhythm of the new version is just right, from "loose" at the beginning, then gradually "tight", and then "loose" later. The acting skills of the actors did not live up to the content of the film, plus the soundtrack and lighting, which mutually contributed to the final effect of the film.

Watching the movie, I've completely brought myself into it, as if I'm sitting on a jury too. My palms were tense and sweaty, and I felt lonely, helpless, or fearful, helpless, or hopeless and powerless. The joys and sorrows of human beings do not understand each other, and the genes of selfishness are deeply hidden in everyone, and no one can escape.

"Nothing will change. We come here to discuss the case, take turns to speak, that's all, but things remain the same." Life is full of absurdities, and we are so powerless, we are powerless to ourselves, trapped in our own cage, We are powerless to others and to the world.

"Like this, fly away if you want, the coast is empty, stay if you want. But you have to decide for yourself. No one else will decide for you. It's an honor to meet you." No one cares about what happens to you , you are the one who suffers, and only you are the one who enjoys happiness. How you decide and what the result is, it's all about you, not anyone else.

"One day, I was very drunk on the train, my clothes were disheveled, and I smelled of alcohol. The train was full of people, and I was making trouble because of my drunkenness. Despicable and happy. I just want someone to throw me out of the train, so I hit the rails and my brain bursts to death. But everyone in the car sat silently, and they all turned their faces away, silently Sitting still. Except for one woman and her five year old daughter, I heard the little girl say 'Mom, that man is crazy, I'm so scared', but the woman said 'No, he's not crazy, he's just very sad'."

"I hit my son and my son was like, he's looking forward to it all, he doesn't cry, he just blinks and smiles, keeps blinking, but doesn't cry. I hit him, hit him in the head The blood was broken, but he kept blinking and smiling, blinking and smiling. I woke up one night and heard the sound of water, I went to the bathroom and saw him washing the sheets, he wet the bed, the kid, he was sitting Holding the sheets in the corner, looking at me with a smile, winking and smiling, as if he was always guilty, that expression, that smile, he looked at me, although I did nothing wrong, but deep in my heart, I feel like I'm my son's executioner."
