1. It turns out that the United States has also had this "McCarthy era", and the United States' own media does not want to mention it, and China's history seems to be that this road is much longer, and that kind of change has not yet been completed.
2. I like the tranquility of the people in that town, the kind of contentment, the kind of firmness, the uncle who wants a pocket watch, the kind of persistence and firmness in his professional professionalism
3. I like this kind of subversive change-the beginning only , And finally said no
. 4. The only shortcoming, let Jim Carry go to jail, or he will be too far from reality; otherwise all resistance will be encouraged for no reason; as Li Ao said, going to jail is also a kind of practice.
5. The point that the constitution is a contract is also very clear: the constitution is a contract, in fact all contracts can be bargained
. 6. There are two heroic images in mainstream American values: one is represented by Luke, who sacrificed his life for the country. Maintain peace and justice; the other is represented by Epton, fighting for the defense of the country's constitution and democratic principles. And heroes are spiritual idols that are needed no matter what age.
7. The clue of the whole movie is the process of hero reappearance-dissolution-reconstruction

    This kind of pipeline theme movie should not have such a high score! The effect of the final court speech was mediocre. I couldn't bear the slow rhythm of Brother Darabont, but I decided to give three points to the main theme of the domestic production, because they dared to admit their mistakes and dared to face the former McCarthy!

    Cinephile tribute, old Hollywood, American spirit, there are nominations everywhere, but it's really too full... And if the ending is to criticize McCarthy, the "amnesia" setting is really ridiculous (I thought it was "McCarthy" as the The fantasy love story in the background = =) I like it at the end: "You have already given your name, do you want to know who mentioned you?" [Problem] But when I think of Jim Carrey's hope to prove his identity through this series of films, it's a little bit sad

The Majestic quotes

  • Adele: Why?

    Peter Appleton: [gesturing to the graveyard of soldiers] Because I didn't want to end up like him. I wanted to survive! You stand for a cause, you get mowed down. Look. Look! That's the real world. I want my Goddamn life back, Adele...

  • Peter Appleton: I'm sorry... but it occurs to me that there is a bigger issue today than whether or not I'm a Communist.

    Elvin Clyde: Bigger issue? Mr. Appleton, there 'is' no bigger issue.

    Peter Appleton: Actually, not to be contrary, I think there is... Gosh, I don't quite know what to say.

    [Peter takes a drink of water]

    Peter Appleton: The fact is I... I've never been a man of great conviction. I never saw the percentage in it... and quite frankly, I suppose I, uh... lacked the courage. See, I'm not like Luke Trimble. He had the market cornered on those things. I never met the guy, but I feel like I've gotten to know him. The thing is, I can't help wondering what he'd say... if he were standing here right now. You know, I think what I think he'd probably tell you: the America represented in this room... is not the America he died defending.

    [the crowd noise in the background rises]

    Peter Appleton: I think he'd tell you your America is bitter...

    [Congressman Doyle begins banging his gavel]

    Peter Appleton: and cruel... and small.

    Congressman Doyle: The chamber will come to order!

    Peter Appleton: I know for a fact that his America was big... bigger than you could imagine... with a wide open heart

    [Congressman Doyle bangs the gavel again]

    Peter Appleton: ... where every person...

    Congressman Doyle: Mr. Appleton! You are out of order!

    Peter Appleton: [Speaking over Congressman Doyle] ... has a voice! Even if you don't like what they have to say.

    Congressman Doyle: Enough, Sir! You are out of order!

    Peter Appleton: If he 'were' here, I wonder how you'd respond... if you could explain to him what happened to his America.

    Congressman Doyle: Mr. Appleton, you are skating on the very thin edge of contempt.

    Peter Appleton: Well that's the first thing I've heard today that I completely agree with!

    Kevin Bannerman: Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman, my client is clearly under an enormous strain as a direct result of the belligerent questioning of Mr. Clyde, and he is therefore not responsible for his comments. At this time, we wish to invoke the Fifth Amendment.

    Peter Appleton: No, no we don't.

    Kevin Bannerman: Yes, Pete, we do.

    Peter Appleton: No, Kevin, we don't, so knock it off!

    [pounds his fist on the table for punctuation, quieting the crowd]

    Peter Appleton: [in a quieter voice] Just shut the hell up and let me get through this.
