One man's war - defeated the Soviet Union, do you believe it? ——I would rather believe that "the sow will climb the tree"...

Throughout the film, the U.S. involvement in the Soviet-Afghanistan (Soviet vs. Afghanistan) war is described as a story of an American Democratic congressman who was influenced by the suffering of the Afghan people and inspired by the patriotism of the United States himself, and did his best to support Afghanistan - it seems to be a story. A typical story of a hero saving people from fire and water...
Unfortunately, this kind of story can't fool me. I have been to the United States and the United Kingdom, and I have worked as a senior technical staff in an American company for three and a half years (at the same time as a backup trainee). Management - I almost became the management of an American company, the middle class - if it wasn't for the tasks they gave me, I couldn't stand it as a Chinese), I know what the British and American management culture is like - it gives You pressure, give you temptation, and then give you direction, let you know in which direction you can keep your position and get promoted, and at the same time let go of your past...
This choice will make you do whatever you can to complete the task explained above, everything It looks impeccable, you complete the task, you get paid - but all this is done by you as a puppet, reflecting the will of "above"...
why "Tom Hanks" is so busy To deal with the charges against him, but also to pay attention to Afghanistan - because this is the task assigned to him by "above", and it is his only life-saving straw...
why "Philip Hoffman" dared to take orders from the House of Representatives Eavesdropping on him, telling him how to deal with the accusation - which is another task of his - telling the congressman which direction he should go...
Actually the director is quite interesting, this is an American theme film, but in another way Look, the director told you everything...

  • Charlie Wilson: These things happened. They were glorious and they changed the world... and then we fucked up the endgame.

  • Gust Avrakotos: There's a little boy and on his 14th birthday he gets a horse... and everybody in the village says, "how wonderful. The boy got a horse" And the Zen master says, "we'll see." Two years later, the boy falls off the horse, breaks his leg, and everyone in the village says, "How terrible." And the Zen master says, "We'll see." Then, a war breaks out and all the young men have to go off and fight... except the boy can't cause his legs all messed up. and everybody in the village says, "How wonderful."

    Charlie Wilson: Now the Zen master says, "We'll see."
