Success is also sorkin and defeat is also sorkin

As Sorkin's directorial debut, he unsurprisingly chose a biography theme.

This is obviously the theme he is best at as a screenwriter. I think his peak of this type of theme should be "The Social Network".

If you've seen The Social Network, you'll see that the movie is also obviously similar, with a sorkin's own style.

Fast-paced, with large monologues to advance the plot.

At the same time, sorkin also made some interesting changes to Molly's autobiography, making the plot more ups and downs.

But I also agree with what some film critics said before, maybe the only experience that is inferior to Molly is not so legendary. He is not a celebrity who has made great contributions, nor is he a notorious sinner. Barely.

    Alan Sorkin's extremely character-driven script justifies Molly's decision to plead guilty and traces her character's origins in a beautiful way, and the film's profusion of quality and graceful lines delivered by the actors, Chastain takes It is still one of the best screen performances in the United States at the moment. However, compared to the screen transformation of Sorkin's high-quality script, this work he personally directed is completely controlled by the script and lacks visual depth.

    80/100 It is drunk to cheer for the model worker once a year. She has been bringing us some stories of "special professionals" in recent years. Does anyone think it is homogenous? Black conscience. It is indeed the work of the screenwriter of "Social Network". The rhythm of the narrative of "Jasmine's Game of Cards" and the turbulent plot conflicts are just right, but my favorite is to use the story of the original family to do the emotional design throughout, very Profession.
