"Indifferent" human nature

In the new day, movies accompany me.

1. A true story

No one was injured and this is the truest story.

2. A miracle story

Eastwood sets the film's conflict in the comparison of the NTSB's (National Transportation Safety Board) flight simulation results, or represents the captain's challenge to authority and power. There are many heroes in Eastwood's films. In order to make the role of the captain more full, from the nightmare of the film, to the doubts after the first hearing, to the financial pressure of the family. Suffering has filled the captain's story. Instead, it's the thanks from the passengers and the heroic praise from people. Conflict arises in contrast. But the story is dramatic, like a forced landing on the river, the mood of the tower commander changes. No one believed there would be no casualties in the flooding. At the beginning of the play, Sally is on the phone with the clerk at the convenience store, "When can you take my flight", in the happy look of the last three passengers on the plane, when the geese hit the engine, in the taunting of Harder In the words of Xunhe. All in all, Captain Sully became a hero in the attack of the splash.

3. A challenging story

The hearing personally considered it to be the climax of the whole story. Judging from the expressions of everyone after the simulated video, the hero fell to the bottom at that moment. However, when the captain calmly expounds on human nature, human feelings and accidents. What exactly is the right choice? Return to any airport, or make a forced landing? In the movie, 35 seconds is the difference between human reaction time and machine reaction; 17 times, it is the difference between accident and training, and 220 seconds is the difference between choice and strategy. I'm glad Elizabeth said the results of 17 workouts; I'm glad the last simulation failed; I'm glad that everyone is a hero.

    Although the layout is small, it is unexpectedly not boring at all, because the rhythm and structure are indeed very good. The whole film is very restrained in emotion, and even said that because the ending is so good, it makes me think that this heroic story has the potential to be higher...but the ending subtitles are still too deliberate in the main theme, it's a pity. The night in New York is really beautiful, but this city is tiresome, and Sully is probably only a winter river.

    At its core, it is still a Western movie, especially John Ford, right wing, American core values, if there is such a thing...

Sully quotes

  • Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: [New York late at night and both men can't sleep so they decide to go for a walk. It's cold outside and both are bundled up] It's all so unreal. I guess I'm just having a little trouble separating reality from whatever the hell this is.

    Jeff Skiles: This is two men freezing their asses off.

    [They both laugh]

    Jeff Skiles: Sully

    [pause]

    Jeff Skiles: don't worry. You did a great thing and it's going to be remembered for a very long time.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: Funny thing is, I've delivered a million passengers over 40 years in the air and in the end I'll be judged on 208 seconds.

    Jeff Skiles: Come on. Tomorrow's going to be a good day. Computer SIMS will prove you were right and we can all put our wings back on.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: Do you want to run?

    [Both men go jogging on down the street]

  • Jeff Skiles: I'm hoping six months from now we'll just be laughing about how we got to meet David Letterman.

    Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: We're going on David Letterman?

    Jeff Skiles: Yeah, right after the next NTSB interview. I'm guessing David's going to be slightly funnier.
