Respected and moved

This film is so worthy of respect.

1. Contradiction and opposition are always the most fascinating themes. A former national hero, who holds the highest secrets, is only a pawn of the motherland. If you give up, you will give up, but he still has a lot of energy. His standout can be subverted in an instant. The whole country. He is a technological genius + full of charisma + a funny old man who loves drama. It can be said that the drama he directed and acted supported 80% of the highlights of this documentary.

2. There are a few moments that even moved Putin, isn't this what we used to be? No matter what means, we must use all means to make this country strong again, at least make our people feel strong, feel the power of ourselves from our bodies, so that we can continue to confront the world. And sports is the best expression, the most original, the purest, about strength and speed, these are the most critical elements that determine victory. Perhaps in their concept, only the battle is the most valuable, and only the victory of the battle has the supreme glory.

3. It is also a typical American-style film of individual heroism, with a sense of belief in changing the world by oneself, and a sense of mission to improve the injustice and evil in the world. This may be an American that is worth learning from the world. Click. Of course, this action also allowed the American imperial people to taste the sense of glory of victory in the wrestling between the United States and the Soviet Union, which is the core of the world political structure. The FBI came forward to investigate the government plan of another country, and it was their most conquest opponent, the old man. Russia, the self-positioning of the world police is clear.

4. The film is about a global event. With the IQ of the Chinese, one can actually imagine the darkness of the insider of Chinese sports. But I feel very lucky to see such a film that is 100% banned in Russia from time to time.

5. The original intention of each party is unknown, but each person's efforts have finally contributed to the disclosure of the truth of this incident. No matter the size of the subsequent impact, the most important meaning of the truth is to be known. This is enough. Kudos to the witness and the producer for their courage. Like Dolphin Bay and Operation Ivory, the Americans have once again exercised justice. It is not easy to take such a small step forward every day.
