    Slightly boring, and the clues are very complicated (mainly because the names are not easy to recognize...). The display of the concept of "finding oneself" is very intriguing, and the story of the male protagonist is thought-provoking: How is the so-called "equality" of the American style broken between the inseparable ethnic...

    The last paragraph changed Wo's opinion of the gun cover, he was not hypocritical, just pitiful. But in any case, the places where extremist organizations can be born are not allowed by order, because you have no way of knowing how many masks these grandchildren have and when they will detonate, so Bush is...

    Another film that discusses counterterrorism, only this time a Pakistani tells his story. In fact, the male protagonist was willing to integrate into the United States at the beginning, but his transformation was more caused by Americans. The more fearful we are about something, the more powerful we make the other person feel. In fact, fear can never overcome fear. The same goes for...

    "I am not bin Laden": the demands of the Islamic world to Western society

    "The Reluctant Fundamentalist" (The Reluctant Fundamentalist) is quite wonderful. Although the film is adapted from a novel, it is powerful and brings out some accusations and values ​​in the Islamic world. There are many things that are not binary opposition, right and wrong, crime and punishment,...

    Racial prejudice stops at communication, and it doesn't stop there.

    What caught my attention was the strange movie name, and what made me reflect was the content of the movie.

    Generally speaking, the plot is stable and true. Two opposing men who have no choice but to choose their camps sit in a teahouse in Lahore and chat. Although there is a nervous atmosphere,...

The Reluctant Fundamentalist quotes

  • Changez: Pretend I'm him.

  • Changez: [about watching the events of 9/11 unfold] In that moment, I should have felt sorrow or anger, but all I felt was awe. What audacity. The ruthlessness of the act was surpassed only by its genius. And David had struck Goliath. I'm sorry if my reaction to the attacks has offended you, Bobby. I hope you see that I'm not celebrating at the death of 3,000 innocents, just as you would not celebrate the death of 100,000 in Baghdad or Kabul, for that matter. But before conscience kicks in, have you never felt a split-second of pleasure at arrogance brought low?

    Bobby Lincoln: And you ask me why they're harrassing your family. Let's just cut the bullshit, okay? You believe in violence as a tool for social change. You teach a course in violent revolution at Lahore University. Your lectures are full of anti-American rhetoric.

    Changez: [cut to him teaching] We will wipe the blood of the invaders from our swords!

    Bobby Lincoln: If that weren't enough, you were spotted at an Asal Mujahideen meeting with Mustafa Fazil, a known cell leader.

    Changez: [cut to said meeting] I think I can help.

    Mustafa Fazil: I knew you would.

    Bobby Lincoln: Last night, Anse Rainier was kidnapped. And this morning, your class was canceled. If you're just an innocent bystander, Changez, why were you hiding? Only guilty people hide.

    Changez: Your candor is appreciated, Bobby, but your conclusions are wrong.
