film tells the story of an anxious older female editor who was tired of sitting in an office in New York and went to Afghanistan to become a war correspondent because she wanted to change herself. After experiencing curiosity, she gradually became famous for her excellent reporting. During this period, I lost my friends, lovers, and myself. Later, the hot spot faded due to the war in Afghanistan. She fought back, unearthed the story, and successfully rescued her boyfriend at the time, gaining attention again. Finally I found my friends, returned to New York to be myself, and became a news anchor. In summary, this film is below Hollywood's baseline. But by the way, the film has reached a level that can be seen at a glance. Why?
1
The film uses the narrative narrative technique, which makes people curiously follow the heroine to experience her choices and changes again. Although old-fashioned, it is very practical. Hand-held photography and editing similar to the American TV series Homeland Security, but using black humorous lines and passages, people can be entertained in addition to the excitement.

The film breaks through the audience's speculation on the plot to a certain extent, but it still contains chicken soup. The change made was that the ending heroine interviewed an American soldier whose leg was broken by a roadside explosive device. The soldier did not swear at the "initiator" in front of him, nor did he complain about himself. Instead, face all this calmly and warn female reporters to face the future, because we have no choice. The reflection on the war reflects the depth of the film, which is also the core point of the film that it wants to sell to the audience through the film: don't blame the external factors that seem reasonable, people can only face difficulties and face the future, because we have no choice.
But is this really the case? But is this really the case? The Korean War, Vietnam War, Afghanistan and Iraq War. There were some brave men and heroes who were as optimistic as those in the film who faced the trauma of war. But this is not the only option. There are more. The remaining soldiers and officers who have suffered from the trauma of war chose to escape, drink heavily, or simply end their lives. They grieve for their dead comrades in arms, are annoyed by the high-level officials who have changed the day, and have trouble sleeping and eating for the innocent civilians who have not been killed. Matt Damon’s movie "Green Zone" warns us that the president may even fabricate evidence of Iraq’s so-called weapons of mass destruction in order to be re-elected. In the eyes of politicians, short-term tricks to change the views of voters are more important than long-term world peace.

I don't care about the love affair between the heroine and the "Hobbit". People with a discerning eye can see that they will not die well, but Fahim. An Afghan who acts as an interpreter and liaison for the heroine. He is a graduate of medical school, but the war forced him to make a living, serve the U.S. military, and serve the U.S. female journalist. He respects the American way of life, but at the same time keeps a distance, hoping that they also respect their own culture and way of life. He married, had children, and led a normal life, which is no different from other countries in the world. He also didn't want to save his own country through religious rhetoric and violence, he did himself well. I think this is what a true Muslim should have. This is also a question that we non-Islamics need to think about today. What is true religious freedom. IS is using the guise of Islam, hoping that the whole world will be enemies of Islamists, not themselves, and only a few tens of thousands of mental patients. And this strategy, which is so obvious to the whole world, should not be distorted and downplayed by media reports.

whiskey hot, as the intensity of Kabul climate of war; represents a romantic tango, turmoil in the region, will produce collisions of hormones, everyone is not a saint, including the Minister of Justice that wretched; foxtrot is a passion, Every day is different, and every moment is full of variables. To say such a paragraph is to say that the title is too far from the end of the film. If I were a director, I would let the female anchor take a look at a text message from an old friend Natania during the 40-second broadcast interval introducing his former Kabul lover writer: The plot of Fahim's innocent death in a suicide bombing attack . I think this is closer to reality. The war is so cruel. Why should your family and friends not suffer misfortune because of this? Everyone is fair to this point, yes, without exception. Including us who enjoy peace.

Hollywood's three-stage narrative seems to be invincible in the world, and even mediocre stories or scripts can be magically let you watch and read. Although the film reflects on the war reporters, the war, and a lot of reflections, I have to say that the plot turn is a bit smooth.
