    Stressing how influential television was at the time, until the two debaters began personal attacks, the documentary was merely a narration of a milestone in the age of television, but had nothing to do with "the best enemy." If the characters are the main character, and debates and current affairs are supplemented, this film will be a lot more fun to make into a movie. Just imagine that Xiao Lizi and Matthew are fighting each other. Just thinking about it makes you feel...

    The content of the main body of the debate is still a little less, but it is very interesting. The most instructive point is that Gore Vidal foresaw the internal affairs problems that American imperialism and military expansion would cause early on, and William Buckley also foresaw and even participated in the formation of identity politics early on; the one who knows you best is always your enemy....

    It's so good! I hate that you absolutely love you longer than I love you. I thought that this black belly of vidal must be a balance. Although the appearance of buckley seems to be low, it is absolutely personal charm. Vidal, like a lifelong stumbling and reinforcement, insists that people love or hate themselves. Is it clear? It was Paul Newman who was going to fight Barkley desperately after learning that Vida was insulted. Is this an adultery or a...

    If you don’t understand 7, if you understand it all, you can 7.5. An era has passed, some gameplay has not changed, and such a charming person and a well-matched opponent are no longer...

    Best of Enemies

    It's a fascinating documentary about the debates between two distinguished and intellectual minds with directly opposite political philosophy in the era of 1960s, when the rapid popularization of television took place and started to influence the politics, society and the whole world.

    This...

    Confidant is easy to get, but good enemy is hard to find

    Compared to the best enemy, I prefer to call it the best opponent. A hand that is at another angle on the same thing or point of view is not a hostile person.

    Calling opponents indicates that this is a contest of equal intelligence, a game of thinking strength, and an engine that spurs one's...

Best of Enemies: Buckley vs. Vidal quotes

  • Christopher Hitchens: The mores of the country were going to hell. And if there was one thing William Buckley cared more about than another thing it would have been that. If we go on like this, abortion will be on-demand, women will have sex with women, the family will be over, the church won't be respected, we will be screwing in the street and frightening the horses, buggery will be legal... And if you'd said all that to Gore, he would've said, Well OK, bring it on.

  • Richard Wald: ABC was the third of the three networks. It would've been fourth, but there were only three.
