The viewing experience is full of surprises

I didn't expect a lot from this movie at first, but I was full of surprises during the viewing process. The heroine's slightly impulsive leaking process and the inner description of the struggle until the exposure, the heroine and her boyfriend were powerless and hopeless in the face of pressure from the government. Just like the scene of Fu's guillotine being tortured, and the process of arguing between the defense lawyer team and the heroine before the trial completely explained the legal environment of the case and the core content of the entire film's accusation: citizens should obey the interests of the country or not. government's interests.

In short, this is a movie that surprised and moved me a lot. Although it involves political factors, the story itself is not a material that can produce multiple conclusions from multiple angles. The core is not to discuss politics but to discuss the rationality of war.

"Are you anti-war? Catherine"

"No, I think sometimes war is necessary"

The director made Catherine say this when all the audience wanted her to lie, the lie the audience wanted to hear. I think it's very ingenious. The strong sense of tension and substitution makes the audience silently recite:

"No, I think sometimes war is necessary"

Extraordinary people can make choices beyond reason when facing the test of loyalty,

A good director can see the glittering light in what ordinary people see as boring and boring stories, and distill the extraordinary into greatness.

    In recent years, the inexplicable favor of KK, who has concentrated on interpreting all kinds of female heroines, combined with the advantages of Gavin Hood's previous work "Eye of the Sky", and surrendered a template politics of stability, fine structure and key suspense. Thrillers will not be ugly. But the repetition of events at a glance (The Observer line is actually a bit of a waste) also lost too much room for upside. The Katharine Gun explained this time is a woman who puts "country" above "home" and "authority". I believe that people with the same mood will understand her own choice better; at the end of the film, she said to the screen "I will still The firmness of "do it again" is better than a thousand words.
