amistad, in the film refers to the Amistad that transported slaves. But it means friendship in Spanish. I think I prefer the translation of "The Brave Without Fear" than "The Rage of Broken Lock". Because I think this topic reflects the thing that touches me the most. One is the unremitting pursuit of freedom. The warrior Sank from Africa and his compatriots have crossed the ocean and experienced undercurrent trials. Even if they finally returned to their hometown, they would face the ridiculous fate of being destroyed and becoming slaves. But when he was in court, the cry of "give US free..." in other languages not only moved the audience at the trial, but also made my eyes burst into tears. In every battle, even if there is only a stone in his hand, the warrior is not afraid. Their nation is undoubtedly worthy of respect. Similarly, judges, defense lawyers, and leaders of the Abolitionist Society, their protection of human rights, respect for personal freedom and life, are more entangled in interests than reality. The young judges who changed their positions, the lawyers who were responsible for black people at the beginning for fame and fortune, and the leaders of the Abolitionist Society who were hostile to the rights of slaves...the spirit of freedom and equality lived in their hearts. , They are all people with a bottom line and faith. This is a very respectable place in this country. Regardless of the political situation, there will always be someone upholding justice. The second is the courage to do the right thing. "The victory of war depends on the lives of the bravest and the best." Sanke said before the trial that he would ask his ancestors to ask them to give them courage to fight this trial. These words deeply touched John Adams. This aging old man made an ear-shattering appeal in the court, "We are eager to get the strength and wisdom of our ancestors to overcome our fears and prejudices and give us the courage to do justice. If this means civil war. , Then let it come.” Even if revolution means sacrifice, the brave are not afraid. This is a clash of thoughts between two peoples with language barriers. They respect and appreciate each other. The brilliance of human nature has overwhelmed the slave system and conflicts of interest. The spirit of freedom and equality has always been shining in the long river of history.
