The meaning of the pursuit of truth

The entire plot of the film, strictly speaking, is more idealistic and personal heroism, which is not uncommon in many American films. The reasoning process in the final speech, although very exciting, actually lacks definitive evidence, such as the testimony of direct participants, etc. There is always a kind of "although he is very impassioned in expressing his views, but I always feel that there is a slight Empty" feeling.
Still, although I don't rate the plot very highly of this movie, that's not the point. Through the whole film, what I saw was a figure of a small person who dared to show his courage to question authority and pursue the truth. Even if one after another setbacks stood in front of him, such as social pressure, death threats, family confusion, etc., he still did not stop his steps.
I actually thought about why he was so persistent in pursuing the truth. The pursuit of the truth is certainly correct, but is it worthwhile to pursue the truth when your own life is at stake, and your family is also at risk. In the process of watching, I slowly found the answer, which is the love of the protagonist for the country and the people of the country. The absurd politician transactions brought about this assassination, and behind it all we can see is the hypocrisy of an American regime at that time, what can such a hypocritical government bring to the people. The master just saw the horror of this kind of government, and decided to come forward alone and reveal the truth.
We have always said: "Love knows no bounds". Love should not be limited to a certain person, a certain family, but should spread to many people in the society, as well as the country. The contradiction between the protagonist and his family does not reflect that he does not love the family, but that he cares about his motherland. And with the good development of your country, you will have the further happiness of your own family. I think this point is very realistic now.

    Quite a wonderful interpretation of the mountains behind Kennedy's death. At the beginning, the events are placed in the coordinate system of the world history of the twentieth century by using the editing of different material images, and the in-depth excavation and the extension of the final subtitles are also in place. One of the most important courtroom speeches in film history.

    Director's cut version/The best American theme I've seen so far. The treatment of JFK as a spiritual symbol may not necessarily conform to the historical reality, but almost perfectly completes the artistic reality. It is not only power that hides the truth, but also human cowardice. What is even more desperate is that the pervasive elite consciousness throughout the film may no longer be able to save the world. It is not easy to be able to tell such a complicated story clearly, and more than 200 minutes is not boring and amazing.

JFK quotes

  • X: After I came back, I asked myself, why was I, the chief special officer, selected to travel to the South Pole at that time that any number of others could have done? And I wondered if it was because one of my routine duties if I had been in Washington would have been to arrange for additional security in Texas, so I decided to check it out. And sure enough, someone had told the 112th Military Intelligence Group at Fourth Army Headquarters at Fort Sam Houston in Texas to stand down that day, over the protests of the Unit Commander, Colonal Rike. This is significant because it is standard operating procedure, especially in a lnown hostile city like Dallas.
