      warning against politics

      The story is based on a drama in Broadway named Farragut North. It tells about the schematic election, the sophisticated finesse in politics, and the price to pay in the pursuit of power.

      The plots are a little bit decorative, as far as I am concerned. For instance, having dealt with politics for so many years, Paul would have thought over about the consequences of having Steven fired. He might have a paranoid. But making things right should be what he is good at. Then i guess the...

      You can still give Clooney a thumbs up

      7.1 After the drowsy boring for the first hour, the story begins to be exciting and contradictory, twisted and twisted to a certain degree of shock and soul-stirring.
      Gosling's performance is as usual, and the limited play of the major Cass plays is limited. Even so, the play still has the biggest attraction "people's hearts". The sudden accident and the unexpected development made people caught off guard, which is the biggest contrast with the previous dullness.
      This story is a good...

      Politicians are no good!

      This year's U.S. presidential election is about to start again, and the war between the major candidates is about to start. At this time, such a movie is also considered timely. George Clooney is playing a presidential candidate this time. The governor of the film does not have many roles, and his main energy is estimated to be on how to direct this film. The main actor is a young man: Ryan Gosling did a good job, showing the growth process of a young politician, and the film fully shows In...

      What kind of person has your profession trained you to be?

      What kind of person has your profession trained you to be?
      The words were held back for a long time, as if they were stuck in the throat. I didn't think about it until I didn't dare to write, and now I still feel like I haven't figured it out yet, but after watching this film, I really feel unhappy.
      Sometimes, it has nothing to do with greed or even desire, just survival. Even if you retreat, you can sigh and say that it's just obsession, but who doesn't have the passion when they are...

      The Ides of March

      "March 15" is based on Beau Willimon's Broadway play "Farragut North," a subway station north of Farragut Square in Washington, D.C. name. In the 2004 U.S. presidential election in the Democratic primary election stage, Bo Williamman served as the campaign staff of the Democratic candidate Howard Dean. Experienced creation.
      The hero in the play is a presidential candidate's press secretary, and his career achievements are enough to make many colleagues much older than him envious. However,...

      The subject matter is ingenious, the performance is bland, and there is a little craftsmanship. When it comes to political themes again, many good characters help George Clooney's team a lot, but unfortunately it is...

      This film is Georgey's second time to direct it~ It's rare that he supports a newcomer and is willing to be a green leaf~ Ryan Gosling is also getting more and more praise. A few years ago, he was praised by many film critics as the best choice for future movie stars. In recent years, he has added shape and shape , has become the representative of the acting school + idol school~ Unfortunately, I couldn't go to the end with Rachel, who was born in the same hospital because of "The Notebook"...

    Positive comments on the

    The film uses the presidential election as the theme story, revealing the sunshine and gloom of politics. The first half of the film is very gorgeous and glamorous. With the development of the plot and the change of Stephen's fate, it gradually reveals the illusory morality and dirty transactions hidden under the gorgeousness. The wonderful performances of a group of actors also brought splendor to the film. Actors such as Philip...

    Movie quotes

    • Tom Duffy: [to Stephen] You exude something. You draw people in. All the reporters love you. Even the ones that hate you love you. 'Cause you play them like the pieces on a chessboard and make it look effortless. And we both know how hard it is constantly being on guard, weighing every word, every move. But from the outside, you make it look easy. People are scared of you. 'Cause they don't understand how you do it, and they love you for it. And that is the most valuable thing in this business. The ability to win people's respect by making them mistake their fear for love.

    • Governor Mike Morris: Stevie, you still single?

      Stephen Meyers: I'm married to the campaign, governor.

      Governor Mike Morris: He's married to the campaign. Good answer.

    • Stephen Meyers: How old are you?

      Molly Stearns: How old do you think I am?

      Stephen Meyers: Twenty-one?

      Molly Stearns: Twenty. Yep.

      Stephen Meyers: That's young.

      Molly Stearns: Is that too young to fuck a 30-year-old?

      Stephen Meyers: Well, you see, the laws are different in different states. Here, at your hotel here in Kentucky, it's frowned upon.

      Molly Stearns: Oh.

      Stephen Meyers: But, if we go across the bridge into Ohio...

      Molly Stearns: Where your hotel is...

      Stephen Meyers: Yeah, surprisingly, they're very lax about their child-endangerment laws.

      Molly Stearns: Do you have a car? I don't drive.

      Stephen Meyers: I took a cab.

      Molly Stearns: I have the keys to the campaign bus.
