Because I recently watched "Details of Democracy" again, and I have a lot of ideas about this American-style democracy and discrimination.
The five-star composition of this film is that the ending changed from four-star to five-star all of a sudden (although the four-star is also because the bald Edward is too handsome).
Retribution is not necessarily on you but on the person you love who loves you. When the family finally saw the hope that the elder brother would take the younger brother out of the vicious circle of revenge. A simple audience like me would think the suffering and hatred are over. Cupping happened. Whether there is a new hatred growing in his heart when his brother hugged his dead brother and cried bitterly. The movie also stopped here.
This is also the status quo of racial discrimination in the United States. The prejudices buried deep in the hearts of white Americans. It can be learned from the mouth of his father who is a firefighter. The idea of equality that the younger generation learns at school and is taught at home by the father of the head of the family is nothing but nigger shit. This kind of deep-seated prejudice becomes bigoted racism after a little incitement and magnification. The part in prison is nothing more than a show. The world is not black and white. Colored people can be friends and white friends will sodomize you for being disrespectful. at the end. When the older brother changed his mind and awakened the kindness in himself and his younger brother, ready to face his past mistakes. The younger brother was shot by a black young man. The revenge of the brother who waited three years in prison fell on the younger brother. Whose fault is this? This kind of mutual hostility and hatred among different people in American society did not happen overnight. It can even be passed down from generation to generation.
Finally, my brother's closing remarks on friends and foes called the American History X-Files. In the end it made me feel pale and powerless. It's more powerless than adding this sentence anywhere in the play. Whether it is an individual or a government. After all, the United States is a country that has had the "Chinese Exclusion Act", has clear restrictions on African immigration, and built the "Berlin Wall" on the US-Mexico border. Movies can do very little to counter this ingrained prejudice. But America has made progress through these blood and tears, freedom and democracy.
