Be brave if you have the courage

What is the function and significance of the secret? Perhaps for individuals, it is the hidden source of becoming itself; then, for the system, because it is necessary to "maintain stability" to operate, it should be unspeakable and unspeakable. The movie satisfies everyone's desire to spy, and "The Fifth Floor" can be regarded as the reveal of WikiLeaks. It's a pity that the veil is lifted, it's not a beautiful woman looking forward to her appearance, but a personal show of Assange in the context of various parts of Europe, the so-called origin of reality.
To say what is wonderful, it should also be Benedict Cumberbatch's Oscar-nominated acting. Daniel Bruch played the role, and the contrasting scenes and tensions were unimpressive. So the story isn't great, the pacing isn't great, and the performance overall isn't cool—hacking, or shouldn't the Geek culture be so heavily inked? Between the staggered flickering of his eyes and lines, Yi deciphered the director as if he had been a "jerk" who had a dark and bitter childhood.
The problem is, don't all great characters have complete and peculiar minds? Being regarded as internet liberalism, the value orientation that Assange will definitely have is invisible in the incoherent point-and-click performance that the film attempts to objectively. As a result, the secrets of WikiLeaks and its founder, as well as the shocking secrets that have been uncovered, have lost their shocking power, not to mention the power to change the world as the movie's title suggests.
In fact, the truth presented by the film is always only relative—Assange himself has many false accusations against the film and its blueprint—but the quality expressed by a good film is undoubtedly absolute. The film isn't even enough. The topicality is only relative. Today's Snowden is probably more attractive to the world's attention and heart. Absolutely, it should be those basic and great emotions and strengths, such as the "contagious" courage that has not been well represented in the film.
Filler:
After watching it, I was actually impressed by Bruch's girlfriend who played the character, who played it? The red, Legging, and dress that appeared twice should have a meaning, right? (If such a cool guy comes to the front in amazement, I should disarm! Although I am not a Geek who is colored black.) Also, Tibet riots, more than 40 videos published by WikiLeaks, I really want to challenge 404 watchdog, at a glance. Finally, to put it vulgarly, time is a killing knife, and the free and smart handsome Bruch in "Goodbye Lenin" is like this. However, his golden age may be born, please pay special attention to his style in the 2013 masterpiece "Rush".

The Fifth Estate quotes

  • Julian Assange: Man is least himself when he talks with his own person. But if you give him a mask, he will tell you the truth. Two people, and a secret: the beginning of all conspiracies. More people, and, more secrets. But if we could find one moral man, one whistle-blower. Someone willing to expose those secrets, that man can topple the most powerful and most repressive of regimes.

  • Sarah Shaw: Do you think the President of Turkmenistan will be more upset that I called him a practised liar or that I called him vain?

    James Boswell: I don't think he's worried about the opinions of a mid-level foreign attaché.

    Sarah Shaw: That's why I signed Hillary's name to it.
