      The boss told him that Nixon was a great salesman

      For more information, please pay attention to the personal self-media subscription account "kaiweimovie"

      The assassination of Kennedy was a historical event, so what happened to the assassination of Nixon? In fact, the three words "Nixon" are just a gimmick in the movie "Assassination of Nixon" and have nothing to do with politics. The name Nixon can be replaced.

      As a political event, Kennedy is...

      What Huang Han said is: very good!

      It's a pretty good movie. Well, give it a high score. It shouldn't be because I will become a reactionary too. At first, I only saw a simple promotion, and then I realized that the salesperson was just making promises but never fulfilling them. The profit of a product is 30%, and they will never give you 15%, it will make you happy to accept 10%, and even can’t wait to place an order right away. The protagonist of the movie does not like this kind of deception. He hopes to be able to operate...

      The description of the film: The soft egg can't live anywhere

      Watch the full movie, with feelings of sympathy, disgust and despair for Sam, and praise Sean Penn’s superb acting skills.
             In the process of watching the film, it seems that it is easy to fall into the characterization of Sam as a "little person" and the background as a "society where honesty cannot survive", in order to achieve the meaning of criticizing the ugly social reality. If you just choose the angle like this, then I think it coincides with Sam's narrow, cynical, and...

      Angry Sean Penn

      This movie is very exciting, it is a movie very suitable for Sean Penn, because it is as angry as Sean Penn. The protagonist of the film, Sam, is a complete loser, but you ask yourself if you are not a loser? Haven't you tried the so-called "believe in yourself" philosophy of success, and then find that it is a shit? Didn't you want to join a group that reformed society or reformed yourself and wanted to do something, and then found out that you were a fool? Haven't you been frustrated because...

      When the world can't bear your depth

      He is a good man, an angel, but in the real world he is defined as a small person, a loser. He stubbornly believes that the world should be a different picture, love is never to leave, people respect each other, there is no lies, no fraud, but it is a world of angels. He fell into the world, looking at the world in front of him, he was disappointed, his heart was broken, but he was still so innocent and kind, and finally ended his life in an extreme way, just to awaken the world, but he did not...

      The disillusionment of the American dream, the fall of the ideal. I prefer this kind of meticulous psychological description and characterization, and listening to Sean Penn's "light and cloudless" muttering is even more heartbreaking and moving. The dilemma of reality cannot be found, and the swelling in the heart cannot find the cut point. Our unhappiness is the overall unhappiness. "Man is not small, but miserable: misery is subject to himself (subject and subject are...

      Combining with the two days of watching Lei Luo, he once again sighed that society is a big tank, and there are so many ant people who can't get along with each other but don't dare to choose to die tragically. Very good...

      This is a process of idealists going to destruction. The film focuses on two points: anti-success and anti-American dream, but all the motives of the male protagonist are all driven by idealism, so in the end the film is promoting Are you anti-success or simply talking about complete failure? Like the protagonist, the movie is bound by reality and cannot be higher than reality from beginning to end. We only see the failure and stupidity of the characters, but we do not see the noble and heroic...

      "I am an honest person. If this will make me useless, I have no choice but to do this, but I don't want to die in obscurity." This is a world full of deception, so let us not fit into it....
