An epic movie for ordinary people.

The so-called epic movies have no shortage of heroes who have influenced the course of history. In his brave heart, Wallace chanted "freedom" and made people burst into tears. Speaking of the history of the establishment of the United States, what comes to mind is the thirteen states of North America, the gunshots of Lexington, the Constitutional Convention and the Declaration of Independence, a brand-new social structure that strives to build an unprecedented United States for people of different populations. However, immigration conflicts, racial discrimination, regional contradictions, and class differentiation were not resolved after the establishment of the nation-building system. Even because the contradictions of the high-speed industrialization in the north have intensified, breaking the old order, heroes such as Wallen have also appeared on the stage. Epic movies must be unbearable to many people. They pay attention to historical rendering and background mapping, weaken the character and plot tension, and make people sleepy in the large monologues of characters. This is why this extremely hard-working superstar joined the movie. The main reason for the low score. Epic movies may be really not suitable for the market, and they are both popular and popular. They seem to be the magical epic movies that lack realism and grandeur. However, we still have to give Xiao Li full marks for this transformational movie!
The growth of the United States is not the polite conversation of Washington Jefferson and others as seen in textbooks, including the Northern League led by Lincoln, nor the pure justice league. The contradiction between the northern industrialists and the southern plantation owners has intensified, and the expansion of capitalism urgently needs the liberated black labor force. Such a war is imperative. The forced conscription of the Northern Army sent the poor to the front as cannon fodder (most of the civilians are Irish fleeing immigrants). The local gang despised and rejected this group of outsiders. In dire straits, our Xiao Li, the son of the immigrants of the Irish priest, From simply killing his father’s hatred to leading the people’s riots, the sublimation of this kind of thinking personally feels a bit abrupt, after all, Xiao Li really escaped from the hands of the butcher. The rise of American democracy in Xiangmiao is not only because the establishment of the United States is a process of local civilians opposing British colonial rule, but also because every political reform in the United States is the result of popular struggle and integration (beautiful dog? Here), ending in a sentimental manner. Expressing the theme of the movie, "We are all born in suffering and blood, and so is the great New York City."

    What a long movie~~~ Why do I feel that Cameron Diaz, Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley have reached an intermediate point when watching this movie~~~

    When I watched 8.0, I felt that the performance of the villain was too powerful, and Xiao Li's acting skills were exploded into Huang Xiaoming. Later, when I checked it, I fucking turned out to be, DDL.
