"The Life of Emile Zola" focuses on the historical facts of the Dreyfus case. It deeply reflects on the anti-Semitism that prevailed in Europe at the end of the 19th century, and conveys the universal values of the pursuit of truth and justice. Of course, any film will consciously or unconsciously reflect the collective psychological consciousness of its nation. The protagonist embodied in "The Life of Emile Zola" embraces firm principles and beliefs, and the spirit of moving forward courageously for the realization of ideals is also fully consistent. The mainstream American ideology is in the same line as the so-called "American spirit" embodied in Hollywood movies of the 21st century. In short, "The Life of Emile Zola" is not just a monument to the characters, the humanitarian care and the critical spirit of reality embodied in the film can trigger deep thinking among the audience. The film’s pursuit of universal values, in the process of recreating historical facts, strives to dig out the connotation of the characters, reveals the common human spirit contained in it, and perfectly blends with the mainstream ideology of the nation

It would be more accurate to use the title "Zola's Freders Case". Zola's life as a writer is not presented, but more attention is paid to the trial of the Dreyfus case, which of course is what American films are good at, but the role of Zola and the entire French intellectual in society is too much. It's too small, and the film loses its possible larger pattern.

Like a movie, but one thing—— always keep yourself fighting for the truth. Truth, and truth

Émile Zola: What does it matter if an individual is shattered - if only justice is resurrected?

Émile Zola: [reading from his letter "I Accuse"] I shall tell the truth. Because if I did not, my nights would be haunted by the spectre of an innocent man expiating under the most frightful torture a crime he never committed.
