and it feels good after watching it.

United States][The Insider][DVD-R/600M][Medium][The latest Denzel Washington hot action movie!! The bustling downtown Manhattan, 4 plain-looking People painters entered the Wall Street branch of a trust bank, and the situation changed sharply. In less than a minute, the entire bank was under their control. It turned out that they were robbers in disguise, led by the highly intelligent bandit leader Dalton (Clive Owen) behind the scenes to conduct a bank robbery and took nearly 50 hostages.
The situation is urgent, and the New York Police Department is fully mobilized. The newly promoted Sheriff Fraser (Denzel Washington), although under the cloud of corruption scandals, rushes to the scene with his partner Bill because of the troublesome case. Also assisting the emergency handling elite, to prevent the situation from getting out of control, the police surrounded the bank. However, they are not dealing with ordinary people this time--the bandit leader Dalton is not only cunning, calm, and super-controlling, but also has full control of the situation every step of the way, even Frazier can't do anything.
For Arthur Case (Christopher Plummer), the chairman of the bank's board of directors, his concern is not the safety of the hostages, but the "important" items in the bank's vault. As a result, Madeleine (Jodie Foster), a lawyer and political broker, is hired by him to negotiate delicately with the mayor of New York, Fraser and Dalton. The already turbulent situation has been injected with more unstable elements, and the situation is at stake!

◇ Highlights: Samsung's cat-and-mouse game
When a sheriff who won't stop until he catches a suspect meets a perfectly intelligent bank robber, both of them are extremely smart, on par with their IQ and strategy, and the crime scene is in New York, where the situation is changing rapidly. The fight for bravery is already full of gunpowder; the robbery case also includes the complex situation of nearly 50 hostages, the dual problems of cracking the case and rescuing the hostages, and the tense atmosphere of who will win and who will lose. The audience is inevitably more uneasy; not to mention this step The cat-and-mouse game, which has been unveiled step by step, is still a strong duel between two handsome acting talents, Denzel Washington and Clive Owen, and the equal parts of the police and bandits are chasing natural sparks everywhere!
Although the dazzling battle of wits alone is enough to laugh at the world, the famous black director Spike Lee clearly has no intention of giving up. Another clue in the film will be provoked by Jodie Foster, a beautiful and powerful woman with dual identities and incomprehensible depths. She is gentle and elegant in appearance, but in fact it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, and she will bring something to the robbery. What kind of ups and downs?

    Journalism is an industry that tells secrets. It requires reporters to let people say what they should have said (observe and reflect, cut through to gain trust, find the truth, test the facts, and let the interviewee take risks) and let people hear what they should have said. Hear the words (under the pressure of being reconciled); since telling the truth often brings great damage, the person who wants to conceal the facts will attack the source in various ways, and finally you may face the situation: what is the fact, you The fact that will fight you. Wrestling is everywhere, and it is very difficult to fight against capital and state machinery. It is not that you alone are ready to tell the facts and the facts can work. This is this society. There will always be people who compromise, and the wisdom of the people may not be able to make them stand on the side of the truth, because the direction of public opinion can be manipulated. So are you ready to tell the truth? Are you ready to face the public? Are you ready to face the tremendous changes that your facts have brought you? /Michael Mann made an excellent genre film on this subject in his unique style, which is amazing.

    Is it a newsman or a businessman? Is it a struggle or a compromise? Countless people stand up, countless people fall, the truth is always so cruel.

The Insider quotes

  • Jeffrey Wigand: I can't seem to find the criteria to decide. It's too big a decision to make without being resolved in my own mind.

    Lowell Bergman: Maybe things have changed.

    Jeffrey Wigand: What's changed?

    Lowell Bergman: You mean since this morning?

    Jeffrey Wigand: No, I mean since whenever.

  • Mike Wallace: Am I missing something?

    John Harris: What do you mean, Mike?

    Mike Wallace: I mean, he's got a corporate secrecy agreement - give me a break! I mean, this is a public health issue! Like an unsafe airframe on a passenger jet or some company dumping cyanide into the East River, issues like that! He can talk, we can air it! They've got no right to hide behind a "corporate agreement"! Pass the milk.
