What we need is a truth

If he is just a movie, I think it is worth watching, but if it is the best picture at the Oscars, it shows that the level of the Oscars is somewhat low. The film critic is based on real events, saying that it is a movie, it feels more like a "documentary", because he is more rational and pursues the process of gaffe, and there may be problems with the nature of the event, which prevents him from putting more of his own opinions and perceptual understanding. . The plot is very clear, quite satisfactory, and there is nothing to dig into. The aggressive attitude of the "Hulk" eager to expose the incident and the confirmation of the two large circles on the list are like the emotional shock of the lawyers in the defense standing up one by one for justice, but there are more emotions, it seems that there is none left. . .
Of course, what is admirable is that the media, as a bridge between society and the masses, a bridge that needs the truth the most, have done their own work very hard, and faced with Americans who may rank first in front of their families. Faith, the courage to pursue the truth, the courage to take pictures of the pursuit of the truth, and the self-reflection are so commendable.

    It's a bit like "car crash", it's all group drama movies, everyone has superb performance. Focusing on the Catholic sexual assault scandal, slashing throats step by step to verify. The most successful film is to cut child molestation and sexual orientation, pointing out that this is the top-down institutional ugliness of the church, the world's most filthy organization. After watching it, people will lose all respect for religion.

    The degree of completion is very high, the script is good, the rhythm is good, the performance is good, the scheduling is good, everything is good, but there is no surprise.

  • Mitchell Garabedian: I already talked to the Phoenix.

    Mike Rezendes: Yeah, there's a reason I didn't see it. Nobody reads a Phoenix anymore... they're broke, they don't have any power. The Globe does. If we cover the story, everybody will hear about it.

    Mitchell Garabedian: The Church thinks in centuries, Mr. Rezendes. Do you think your paper has resources to take that on?

    Mike Rezendes: Yeah, I do. But if you don't mind me asking... Do you?
