If we were in a world where governments were telling us what to publish and what not to publish, the Washington Post as we know it would indeed cease to exist.
The only way to maintain publishing rights is to publish.
If there is one word to describe Aunt Mei's acting skills, it is just right, just right means that the role is not performed, but naturally radiated.
The first time I watched Aunt Mei's movie was "Long Dreams of a Covered Bridge" recommended by the dean. I was very impressed. Through a lot of eyes, micro expressions, and micro body movements, Aunt Mei transformed a middle-aged family with a dull life and longing for passion. The state of the housewife's inner conflict and struggle was played to the extreme, no, it wasn't acting, she was.
The scene in the "Post" in which multiple parties make decisions on the phone is really wonderful, or to be more specific, Aunt Mei's performance is really wonderful. Ben, Fritz, investors, management, a group of men stared at Kai like a crocodile
, waiting for her to make a decision. At this time, Kai was not a strong woman, but she was like a little girl who made a mistake and panicked. She was flustered and didn't know what to do. Then she asked the most trusted Fritz for his opinion, Fritz said I can't do it. After hearing this, Kai hesitated for a moment, and told Ben in a slightly crying voice, "Let's do it, let's do it." She made a decision against everyone else. The telephone receiver at this time was like a red-hot soldering iron. Kai hurriedly threw the receiver on the base and fled the reception room in a hurry. The hardest decision.
Another scene is when Kai faces pressure from the board to challenge her relationship with Ben to change her decision. The flustered little girl changed her weak posture and gave a strong response to the group of men: I made the decision, and I stood firm with Ben, not only upholding the decision, but also protecting my colleagues. At this time, Aunt Mei's eyes were firm, and her speech was slow and plain. This way of looking inward was the accumulation of her acting career and her talent. This is a very brave woman who dares to stand against most people. Sometimes, most of them are not necessarily right.
This movie reminds me of Liang Wendao's statement about evil, what evil is, evil is to destroy a little bit of goodness, even a little bit of goodness that has no reason to be destroyed.
I think, even if there is only a little bit of kindness and sincerity, as long as it radiates out, its power will be infinite, and it can illuminate the whole darkness.
Finally, I would like to add that the director's field control ability is really too strong.
