Westley 2021-11-14 08:01:25

The 11th #法罗岛电影节# The 4th screening day of the main competition unit will bring you "Assassination of Kennedy". Here is the evaluation of the frontline Qingming prosecutors facing the history!

Not a rabbit slot:

Not very good, with historical narrative ambitions, but the typification is too lifeless.

Fruit trees:

From the beginning of the documentary, people were arrested throughout the entire process. The three-hour period can be regarded as a complete development of the conspiracy theory.

River:

The absolute pinnacle of the same type! The rhythm is subtle, the scale is amazing, the mood is sound, and the performance is perfect.

Mosaic:

If the political component is removed, it is quite suitable as a suspense criminal investigation film. Oliver Stone really dare to touch tiger ass...

Sparrow:

Oliver Stone's bold political themes, the search for truth and the upholding of skepticism present the public with the possibility of multi-dimensional thinking about history.

Cornice:

The editing is good, but the content of the play is a bit weak. It’s just envious that we also need the courage and possibility to be so close to reality, "can be discussed."

Xiaofeng and your waning moon:

A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government. It takes courage to find the truth, and even more so to accept the truth. Editing love, three and a half hours is not too long.

Queen of the Faroe Island Empire:

It was too shocking to be speechless. The three-hour and twenty-minute feature film did not have half a waste shot. The conspiracy theory with such a large scale and obvious directivity is still seen for the first time, as well as "The Great Missing" and "Focus News". "Same as my political movie top1.

It's a waste of wood:

Screen identification happens in subtle ways. The historical scene cannot be restored after all. This is not a movie about historical truth, but a movie about the meaning of truth. Don't say that the truth is not important, it is a huge wave that overturns a small boat. And they know this better than anyone else. I'm talking about the American imperial dignitaries.

Pincent:

It is the tradition, orthodoxy and goodness of the "Washington Post". The excellent editing makes 206 minutes still look refined and compact, and the fragmented images are wonderful and clear reinterpretations of the event many times. Although it is a narrative of history, this set of old-school heroism and orthodox values ​​transcend the context and the times. Every ordinary individual should dare to question the power of zf and seek the truth. Maintaining justice and truth is to safeguard your country. In the face of elaborate scams and concealment, the silence of the public is the greatest resistance to any current truth.

Bounce:

Searching for the truth like a whistle and peeling cocoon, every step is pressed tightly, every plot is not wasted. In order to make a two-hundred-minute movie look not boring, it has to be more ingenious in editing, sound, and picture processing. I have to admit that they have all been done. For example, when people refer to pictures in newspapers, they are not violated. In the video of Hedi, there is no abrupt sound of horseshoes when mentioning a racecourse, as well as various cross-montage memory clips. Every detail is carefully processed to make the audience have such a wonderful show. Back to the topic, those who seek the truth are valuable, and those who dare to speak the truth are also valuable. It is precisely because of such movies that they have more respect for the United States.

Bob_Chow:

A lot of catalysts were lost in the opening, but the rhythm of the first half went down a bit ruthlessly. From the independent investigation, it slowly returned to full power, and then pushed to a climax at the end, which is quite pleasing in the main theme of American liberals. The script structure is still old-fashioned, abandoning family heroes, excellent eloquence, strong and charismatic leadership, this is not unexpected, but the configuration of the lines is indeed quite good. The bias is indeed very obvious, and I have not tried to cover it up as a "documentary", so I have no intention of attacking this. Part of the scene design has a certain charm, the mysterious people choose to meet in Washington, a series of descriptions of Xiao. For international audiences like mine, there is a lack of supplementary scenes for the switching of locations, whether it is street or connection, state and state city and city. Not touching the interests of the media and being relatively neutral in propaganda has become a relatively conservative point in the film.

No one at midnight:

"My job is to make sure that they don't grow up in a country where justice can only be read from the history books, just like dinosaurs and Atlantis." When the protagonist made such a generous statement, the wife made even more Painful reprimand: "That can't replace the husband and father at Easter." Many of these of us are gears in the huge state apparatus. Is it enough to rotate mechanically, without consciousness at all? Those big events that are so dark and secretive that gods fight and mortals suffer. Is it our turn to worry about it? One word of your action, the energy that can be exerted is the last straw that crushes the camel, or the heat from a cigarette butt that is gently trampled on the ground? Are you yourself as you, you in the family, or you as a member of society? Take all the details of the old case of Kennedy's death, put all the conspiracy theories that can be deduced on the stage, and piece together the people from all social classes, all the opinions and emotions into a portrait of all living beings. The truth will never surface, but the courage to explore the truth has never been seen before.

The scores of #FIFF11#DAY4's main competition will be released for everyone later, please wait and see.

    The textbook classic is unbelievable. I couldn't even go to the toilet for three and a half hours.

  • Talia 2021-11-14 08:01:25

    Using fictional works such as movies or novels to tell the story of a conspiracy theory is a responsible approach, and it is much more noble than telling the same story in a serious book.
