Favorite black and white

The 16th Block and the Frozen Mission I have seen before are all movies with similar themes. The combination of a funny B black and a NB white always makes people's eyes shine, not to mention that this time there are two actor-level actors—— Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey.
When I was a child, I saw the scene of these two uncles working together to catch a bad policeman on the movie channel. I still remember it. After many years, I found this movie and revisited it again. Today's Samuel L. Jackson has become the highest-grossing actor in the world with a total box office of $7.4 billion, while Kevin Spacey is in the limelight because of House of Cards. Very appropriate, did the director have foreseen the achievements of these two people at that time?
Apart from the actors, this movie is also very interesting. The ups and downs of the plot, the relaxed and moderate rhythm, almost no flaws in the details, and emotionally moving parts, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was the highest-level production in Hollywood at that time.
It's a pity that there are very few movies with similar themes now. Morgan Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson, Denzel, Washington, Will Smith, and these great men, it is difficult to have a phenomenal black actor, such as Moss Duff. Characteristic actors are also getting fewer and fewer. But I believe that this type of film still has market potential that can be tapped, so keep looking forward to it.

The Negotiator quotes

  • Lieutenant Chris Sabian: I want you to apologize for telling your mother she looks...

    [Sabian's daughter makes a huge gesture with her hands]

    Lieutenant Chris Sabian: Wide.

    [Sabian smiles and whispers at his daughter]

    Lieutenant Chris Sabian: Wide's not a good word, how'd you like to be called wide?

  • Lieutenant Chris Sabian: "I can't believe this, I'm just surrounded by a room of people who wanna go in there and kill him. This is the guy who call you friend. I got nothing invested in this. I wonder why that is, or maybe someday we'll find out."
