I am still more interested in the history of the American Revolutionary War, but I haven’t watched many films in this area. I have also watched "The patriot". The story in it should be fictitious, which is to satisfy the American audience. Vanity. The War of Independence in this drama is rather bleak. It feels that the United States has been in a precarious manner since the beginning. Thanks to this group of visionary veterans, it has been able to sustain it.
I especially like the court debate in the first episode, which vividly shows how the law (or constitutionalism) protects the rights of the minority from the infringement of the majority. J. Adams has to defend the fairness and justice of the law regardless of public anger and the safety of his family. This is also in line with his principle, impartiality, speaking based on facts, which is not necessarily something that everyone can do in today's more rigorous academic circles. Later, when he visited France, the section he said at the banquet should be regarded as a classic. His independent personality makes him saddened by the partisanship disputes that split up after the founding of the People’s Republic of China. This also makes me see the dirty side of politics: personal will is subject to the policies of the party, and the policy of the party is that of the party leader and its surroundings. The thoughts of a small group of people. Once involved in partisan disputes, the individual has no principles at all, and the individual itself becomes unreasonable. If you are separated from any party, it may be as unpopular as J. Adams. His peace policy is a bit of "peaceful rise", but people have known this truth more than 200 years ago.
This play also talks about the truth that it is very important to marry a good wife.
Wrote a film review for the second time, but the first time was an assignment. It is really difficult to write a point. This is just a random idea, which is not a system.
