Small thoughts

In addition to admiring the judges for their excellent judgment, observation and negotiation skills, I am attracted by the human nature reflected in the film. There is a sentence that impressed me deeply. It was said by Bissell to a group of police officers: You are Roman's friends but both Wish him dead, and I'm just a stranger, wish him alive. When the people around him all stood on the other side and didn't believe in him, Roman still had to do his best to make himself innocent. His heart is painful, that is, his friends are framing him.

The Chicago police in the film have a characteristic in handling cases. They attack the target in an all-round way, and use force to solve all problems. No matter whether you are innocent or not, as long as you do something illegal, you have to let them deal with it. Things that can be solved without killing anyone, the last hostage died in the hands of the police, of course they wanted him to die. Because of this, the plot of the film is ups and downs and gripping. A very nice video.

When a person stands tall, the friends he makes are not necessarily real friends.

Public opinion kills people. The more people say something, the more people believe it, and it becomes the truth.

Sometimes we may have to trust a stranger.

When surrounded by negative emotions, when the environment is extremely unfavorable to you, you still have to stay rational and use wisdom to break through the predicament?

    [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."
