      Also on the subject of affirmative action, this is a fascinating story to tell

      I haven't seen such an enjoyable affirmative-themed movie in a long time. The film's background is set in the 1950s and 1960s when racial discrimination was still prevalent. In order to enter the real estate and banking industries that were almost exclusively white at the time, two shrewd black Americans hired a white guy with great acting talent. Erlai acted as puppets to negotiate business with others, while they operated secretly as actual controllers. The above content is...

      experience

      This is a story about the entrepreneurial experience of two black people in the context of racial discrimination in the United States. The content is very compact, but also has a strong influence. The following characters are analyzed: First of all, Bernard: a black entrepreneur who dares to do and think , when he wanted to buy white real estate, his father said to him: child, you are born of the wrong color, black people can't make money in this way, no matter how talented...

      after seeing

      I like this movie very much, and the deepest feeling is that it is "based on true events".

      In the movie characters, his wife is really good, understands him, understands him, supports him and helps him. What a blessing to have someone who silently supports you.

      Genius brains and 100% hard work have made the banking industry with a sense of class finally successfully entered through its own efforts, and it has done a lot. The movie won't show how much he paid in normal times, but...

      Smart and brave

      There are two main feelings: 1. If you want to live a good life, you must use your brain. The male protagonist is the representative. He is smart and diligent. He has the enthusiasm and backbone to change his life. The sublimation of the hero's character is his bravery. He is already so rich, but he still returns to that difficult place, looking for opportunities, wanting to be dark before the stubborn obstacles like icebergs, and he chose to go to court when he went to...

      The story is very dramatic. The performances of the actors are online and it is very interesting. I prefer Bernard’s wife’s character design, as well as anger, glasses, five minutes to see through the details of the design, and the subtle father-son relationship, my father 13 I told me when I was 10 years old... The bigger problem is that the finishing process is a bit hasty and vague. It can be more drama or larger. The biggest shortcoming of the whole movie now is that the theme, format, and...

In the 1950s, black entrepreneurs Bernard Garrett (played by McKay) and Joe Morris (played by Jackson) were subject to racial restrictions at the time and their career development was affected.

    Movie quotes

    • Mrs. Cooper: You can't be here after 6 pm.

      Bernard Garrett: A contractor can't be here after 6 pm, Mrs. Cooper. I'm a resident. I'm moving in.

    • Bernard Garrett: The best place to learn about the present state of the real estate market is inside of a bank. We get that building, we'll be inside 12 of 'em. And next time, they'll think *twice* about refusing to make loans to us if we're their landlords.

    • Joe Morris: I don't trust white people.

      Bernard Garrett: How do you even go through life like that?

      Joe Morris: Truth be told, I don't trust black people either.
