Dutiful Shepherd

It's a very long film, which makes people feel that

in its slow rhythm, I really feel the darkness and ruthlessness of politics.

There are torture scenes in the movie. Leng I think the torture is not how cruel the pictures are, but the atmosphere of mutual distrust.

Who is real, who is a spy, who can be temporarily exploited.

"CIA first, God second"

The United States during the Cold War was like a black hole of conspiracy, in which people with cutting-edge intelligence were struggling.

Taking a leap for the ideal of the United States, destroying the ideal, destroying the family, and leaving oneself alone to death,

this is the price of secrets keeper, this is the price of for country.

Matt Damon plays well, silent, discreet, calm.

The aura he created in the whole film is the strongest, and he expresses the helplessness of the characters with his repressed and almost indifferent performance.

This movie has a suffocating power.

Matt Damon uses an extremely restrained expression to shape the last ear of a top secret.

He has almost no lines in the whole play, the only rant is to his wife: I married you, just for my son.

The structure of the story is scattered, just like analyzing the interludes and flashbacks in modern texts. In

a film with a large amount of information, the narrative starts from two clues and ends at one point.

It will look a little dull and a little dizzy.

So had to mention "skull bone".

It is a secret elite organization with religious overtones at Yale University in the United States.

I think all religion-related organizations are mystical.



But in fact, even such depressing characters and serious storylines are interspersed with wonderful love stories, and that love, too, is depressing.

It is a key that the director needs to express the movie, and it is also the key clue that leads to the subsequent plot.

Hollywood movies cannot be without love, and the success of such a love story is that such a love story can make the characters and stories more vivid.

This CIA veteran also has a lover, and he fell in love with a hearing-impaired girl.

This CIA agent will also be arrested . Seduction, he slept with a woman he had known for ten minutes, was forced to marry, and

he could be the boss because there was only success in his eyes.

Regardless of everything, including self-confusion.

Sacrificed everything just to be a dutiful shepherd.

"The Good Shepherd" literally translates to "the good shepherd".

"Good shepherd" has no particular meaning in the Chinese context.

In the West, it has a special meaning, that is, its religious meaning.

The "shepherd" is my lord Jesus, my lord is the shepherd and we are all lost lambs,

my lord Jesus is the "good shepherd".

Some upper-class elites in the West often call themselves "shepherds".

" The Bible says that If you have received the Lord Jesus as your Savior,

He is your Good Shepherd!

He has saved you from your sin and He is caring for you every day.

One day you will be with Him in Heaven. "

    The editing and soundtrack are perfect, especially the editing is very comfortable, and the details of the explanation are very clean and concise. At 2 hours and 40 minutes, such a lengthy and slightly slow film, it was surprisingly easy to get into the play. Matt Damon played it very well, except for the baby-faced middle-aged man who suffered slightly. What's lacking is that the plot is long and messy. If you don't watch it carefully, it's probably difficult to understand. The role of Julie seems to have the wrong actor. She is not suitable for this kind of woman who will endure for a lifetime. Although I think her performance is still good, but the temperament does not match.

The Good Shepherd quotes

  • Joseph Palmi: Let me ask you something... we Italians, we got our families, and we got the church; the Irish, they have the homeland, Jews their tradition; even the niggers, they got their music. What about you people, Mr. Wilson, what do you have?

    Edward Wilson: The United States of America. The rest of you are just visiting.

  • [Richard Hayes and Ed Wilson walking into the new CIA building]

    Richard Hayes: The President's asked me to become director and do a complete housecleaning at my discretion. I need someone I can trust. After all, we're still brothers. This building doesn't get built without you. You're CIA's heart and soul. Who knows, you might have a secret about me in that safe of yours.

    [pointing down the hall]

    Richard Hayes: This whole wing will be your part of the world: Counterintelligence. Take a look around. I've got an oversight meeting. Can you imagine? They think they can look into our closet, as if we'd let them.

    [Hayes Starts to walk away, stops and begins talking as he turns]

    Richard Hayes: I remember a senator once asked me. When we talk about "CIA" why we never use the word "the" in front of it. And I asked him, do you put the word "the" in front of "God"?
