Watergate theme again

Uncle Lian's performance is quite satisfactory, but the whole movie is a little dull, and it spreads around the Watergate incident. The character Mark Felt played by Uncle Lian is somewhat rigid. It seems that the director wants to portray Mark as a national hero, but he is indeed a person full of controversy. Whether it is for the interests of the country or for the purpose of venting his unfulfilled goals, who can really say. "Deep Throat", the most powerful "informer" in American history who first brought down the president, has always been a polarizing comment. Whether it is treason or patriotism, whether it is because of his own ulterior reasons for venting or because of the integrity of daring to reveal the truth, he may not be able to tell himself, just like his incognito "Deep Throat", unfathomable, Another example is stuck in the throat, contradictions and exposure coexist.

The No. 2 character of the FBI, but how to make Uncle Lian look like an old agent, at most a middle-level, especially the scene of seeing his daughter, it seems that I have the illusion of seeing the taste of "Hurricane Rescue", haha.

The whole movie is relatively smooth, and it can be regarded as another supplementary type of movie theme for the Watergate incident. Give Uncle Lian, a professional secret agent, more than half of the family stars, and then I can barely give three stars.

Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House quotes

  • Mark Felt: The White House is packing all its crimes in separate little boxes. Watergate, the spying, the ugliness, the rot. Each thing in a different box so that no one can put it together, so that no one sees it's all connected. And no one will care, but it's all the same big thing.

    Sandy Smith: And Watergate? Just the gateway.

  • Bob Woodward: We're lost in detail.

    Mark Felt: That's their plan. They want everyone confused. Confusion is control. The truth could ruin the administration.
