Plain as water

Watching this movie feels like watching a very ordinary TV work. It was originally a legendary story, but the story is as boring as boiled water. It hardly feels the point, and there are very few climax scenes. It was watching Matthew McConaughey acting alone there, but without a good story background, there is no superb acting ability by himself. . .
For such a historical theme, the film was a little wasteful, and it came to the end without pain. Perhaps, the film was placed many years ago, and it will bring special feelings to viewers who have experienced slavery, but the times are different. I want to talk about it. A historical story must be able to impress talents from different eras. . .

    Matthew presented his acting skills as a movie king, but the director was not smart enough to know the choice

    Unable to resist this type of film, Matthew Shuai is too much, which makes people feel that the character of Jones is a bit unreal. How difficult it is to change, more than 80 years later, his grandson is still fighting for freedom.

Free State of Jones quotes

  • Newton Knight: No man ought to tell another man what he's gotta live for or what he's got to die for.

  • Newton Knight: From this day forward we declare the land north of Pascagoula Swamp, south of enterprise and east to the Pearl River to the Alabama border, to be a Free State of Jones. And as such we do hereby proclaim and affirm the following principles. Number one, no man ought to stay poor so another man can get rich. Number two, no man ought to tell another man what you got to live for or what he's got to die for. Number three, what you put in the ground is yours to tend and harvest and there ain't no man ought to be able to take that away from you. Number four, every man is a man. If you walk on two legs, you're a man. It's as simple as that.
