A Most Wanted Man: The Details Reveal Deep Emotions

Vincent 2022-07-17 20:43:20

A sighing good story in typical John Carrey style. A miserable and helpless young man, who wants to start a new life in Hamburg, is unknowingly forced to be involved in an "anti-terrorism" conspiracy, bringing out a kind-hearted female lawyer, a helpless banker, and a troubled politician's son. Everyone is manipulated in front of the giant social machine. Even Agent Bachmann (played by Hoffman), who has been in control of the game, is a pawn that can be relinquished at any time.

The ending makes people feel that this world is cold.

The picture is very clean, without any extra people or scenery. The details reveal the deep emotions of the characters.

A Most Wanted Man quotes

  • Jamal: You are forcing me to betray my own father?

    Günther Bachmann: You are not betraying him. You are saving him. That is an act of love.

  • Jamal: I-I can't do this anymore. Someone's going to find out. I can feel it. I'm freightened. They are looking at me. All of them. I'm done. It's over. I'm not your spy. I am student. You cannot make me do this.

    Günther Bachmann: I never made you do anything, Jamal. And I never will. You know that. When we first met, you remember what we talked about? You remember that? Family. The future. Most of us don't get to choose. But, you did. You made the right choice. It's not easy. But, there's no going back - for any of us. We can't undo what's done.
