Travolta is a little bald

If there were no carjacking incidents, Washington would be just an obscure pawn. Maybe he will be embarrassed to be investigated for suspected bribery. A person's potential, a person's talent, if there is no specific event as a carrier, may never be discovered by others.
Travolta said to Washington, you are the hero in my mind. At the last moment of confrontation, at the moment when Travolta fell, I saw the sympathy between the two, and the sadness of Washington. The good and the bad are actually not important anymore. Good and evil are not absolute in nature. Only human nature is common and the most real.
Travolta looks like an old angry youth, and a bit extreme. He seems to scold everything, including the government, Wall Street, prison, mayor, police and so on. . . And we always feel that he is justified in scolding, and looks like the spokesperson of common people.
Washington is a good man who takes care of his family. However, the bribery incident has actually put his life in a difficult situation. I guess he has a certain dissatisfaction with the superiors towards the government. A good and dedicated employee does not have any good treatment. The society always does not. Fair. Of course, maybe Washington doesn't have too much complaining mentality, maybe he is an optimist, maybe he thinks things will pass soon.
The warmest moment was when Mr. Washington came home with milk and his life returned to the ordinary. Family is where we should go back in the end.
