While watching this film, a lot of random thoughts popped up. The first one was when I saw Leonardo and Diaz and sighed that they were still young at that time. Whether this film is good or not really depends on who should watch it. Maybe people who have experienced that period of history or lived in that land will be more impressed. Just like I always think that Young and Dangerous is a classic, here is a little bit about the situation of the Chinese in New York at that time, and there is a Chinese building. , Peking Opera, Big Smoke is the most important thing for Chinese people, hehe,
when I saw this film, I remembered what Mr. Ma Yuan said. Although the United States is a democratic country, they are capitalist countries after all, and the government is still in the hands of the bourgeoisie. They will eventually What I hope to maintain is the interests of the capitalist class. Isn’t the conflict in the film because the bourgeoisie at that time did not know the tactics as well as the American bourgeoisie today? Of course, other people’s bourgeoisie is very important because their means of production are privately owned, and the land is privately owned. Also, oh, farther away, I just wanted to say that no matter what country it is, there will be times of chaos before it goes strong.
Speaking of which, I really like the father-son relationship between Amsterdam and the butcher. Hey, it's a pity that it's not that good, and the rest seems to be nothing.
