Capitalism is where we have something to learn

This is what Xu Jinjiang said in God of Gamblers. Legally, it does. A black father who avenged his daughter, did what a father should do. Killed 2 murderers of their own daughters. It smells like a western cowboy. But the law is the law after all, and the will of the person is the transfer. Such a scene can only appear in the movie, and it is absolutely impossible in reality.
As far as the plot is concerned, it fully embodies a lawyer's skill in defense. The female assistant's precedents at critical moments and the collection of the doctor's original certification materials reflect the common law system, the defense made by the lawyer to protect the client. In the common law system, in many cases, some juries who do not understand the law rely on their own conscience and the laws that the court informs them to analyze whether the suspect is guilty or not, which greatly protects the criminal. Right, this situation seems unreasonable. And in our country. The civil law system will never make such a mistake. Usually, our presiding judges will rely on their own understanding to crack down on criminals and not give them a chance.
But there is something we should learn from the Anglo-American legal system. First of all, he gave the criminal suspect full rights. After all, he is a suspect, not a criminal. He can be found guilty through prosecution and defense. Secondly, the role of lawyers has also been maximized. The success or failure of a lawsuit depends almost on the level of lawyers. How to protect their own agents through the law has become a work that always needs to be considered.

    I don’t know if it’s because I have watched some legal TV dramas. In comparison, movies about courts are simply weak. Movies are not the same as TV. They require a lot of emotion, so they are really not suitable for legal subjects. The third star is for Matthew McConaughey, who is a good enough actor.

    In America I support prosecutors, in China I support lawyers

A Time to Kill quotes

  • Jake Tyler Brigance: If this is a party, boys, where's the chips and beer? Otherwise, your being here seems a bit like illegal client solicitation, what with Carl Lee already having a lawyer and all.

  • Lucien Wilbanks: You wanted this case, well you've got it. It isn't easy saving the world even one case at a time, but you stick with it. You just might have a knack for it. Don't do what I did. Don't quit.

    Jake Tyler Brigance: What are you talking about, quit? You're a hero, Lucien.

    Lucien Wilbanks: Hero my ass. Do you think the world needed me beating cops heads on that picket line? I was needed here. In that courtroom. And I let them push me, I gave them an excuse to kick me out and now I can never plead a case in there again. But you can. You're an attorney. Be proud. You job is to find justice no matter how well she may hide herself from you. So you go on in there and you do your job.
