You can’t watch this film with a dualistic business film mindset of opposing righteous and evil, and evil not suppressing the righteous. If you look at it like this, you will find that the film is very boring, because there is no character in it that is doing the right thing. No one character is wrong, and in the end there is no decision to win. They are ordinary people just like us, and they will do things that are in line with or not in line with their personalities. In Detroit in 1967, the so-called "reason" was very severe, because the whole city was full of racial confrontation. , Doing something out of the ordinary will arouse a strong reaction from the other party, and then quickly evolve into a big riot like a raging grass.
The film focuses on the bizarre encounter of a black Acapella band on the night of riots. At that time, these five black kids with a great sense of rhythm were participating in a screening competition in a theater. After watching the wonderful performances of the first few groups of people, the black kids were full of confidence and said that they would definitely sign the contract, even more popular than Jay Chou. But it is a pity that when it was their turn to perform on stage, the theater manager came over and called for a stop, because the playing outside was more lively than the Chinese New Year. The black kids were indignant, and the lead singer’s grief and anger had nowhere to vent, so they went up to the audience and sang a few words "East Wind Broken" under the empty stage. The sound was like a natural sound, graceful and beautiful, full of love, but now dreaming It can only stop there, at least it seems so tonight. He bowed his head and was pulled off the stage by his friends.
What made him and his friends unexpectedly afterwards was that this was also the last time he stepped on this stage that he had never had a chance to step on, and the last time he sang for an audience that he might sing. For the rest of the night, their singing will turn into painful wailing and whimpering, and the hands they use to beat will take up the blood of themselves and their friends.
The film’s portrayal of the perpetrators is also relatively objective, not as heinous in the filming. In my opinion, they all started after finding a certain basis for their actions, but in the process of specific implementation, the teams The lack of communication has led to a slight deviation in behavior. However, in the eyes of a galactic power, this deviation is insignificant and completely negligible. The perpetrators in this country are still alive and well. The riots in that city only killed dozens of people. A square in the country would be multiplied by 100, and a city would be multiplied by thousands. They also organized several rounds of court hearings, and disclosed the full story of the incident, the names of the participants, and the photos to the world in as much detail as possible. On the 50th anniversary of the riots, a film adapted from real events was released to commemorate the dead and wake up to the Americans at the moment. In this country, how many ethnic groups, flowers, and brothers and sisters belong to one family.
So when this galactic country says that it wants to rejuvenate, rise up, become a world-class power, and fulfill its responsibilities and obligations for the future development of mankind, my first reaction is that you don’t, and you should reflect on it first. Do the right thing if you make a mistake, otherwise I will always be suspicious of you.
Pay tribute to the American emperor who dared to uncover his scars and show it to the world.
