"Lion Into the Sheep's Mouth"

On the surface, "Lion in the Mouth"
is a movie about the United States following the battlefield in Afghanistan. When it was downloaded, its category was listed as a "war movie", but it only had less than one-third of the war scenes, let alone The hot visual effect is more like a conversation between two people who seem to have nothing to do with war. Not a war movie but a feature film? Ethics film? Art films? What a movie is is just a way of categorizing it doesn't have to be set, but I can say it's a real movie.
Two outstanding students give up their studies because of their personal idealism but join the war. What will happen in the process of their actual idealism? A professor's long talk with a gifted but subject-minded student; a veteran journalist invited to visit by a politician she once thought was a future star. The director can be said to be a genius. These three things seem to be unrelated to each other like three parallel lines of money, but after watching this movie, I find that these "three lines" are actually connected to one point, wonderful! Two very boring dialogues, a war without scenes, how can this movie be good?
"Thoughts", because this phone has "thoughts" that make you have to fall into deep thinking after watching it. What thought? Take some time to see it, you'll think it's worth it, even if you miss two hours of sleep.

Personal recommendation level: Strong recommendation.

    Robert Redford, Meryl Streep, Tom Cruise. . . But the movie is not boring. After "Promise", I realized that the strong film of cast may also be scum; after that, I realized that all over the world, cast may be reduced to a pile of ashes.

    American stupid politics except they are god The world only has lions and sheep

Lions for Lambs quotes

  • Todd Hayes: Look, if we're gonna spend tax dollars, our tax dollars, to help people break the law in a safer way, why don't we have a designated drunk-driver lane on the highway too?

  • Senator Jasper Irving: We walk, and Afghanistan reverts back to the Taliban. Only now the Taliban has metastasized into something infinitely more vicious and potent because they're now 2-0 versus superpowers. They butcher the people who helped us, who voted and were stupid enough to put their faith in our word. So call it not only the end of hope for 10s of millions of Afghans, but the end of American credibility, the end of America as a force for righteousness in the world. And when we're forced to go back in a couple years, and please quote me on this, we'll be squared off against a shattered Iraq, a hopeless Afghanistan, and a nuclear Iran. How many troops are we going to need then? I guarantee you'll be adding some zeros.
