Fighting for fairness is the purpose of this film

In addition to showing the film technology, the function of the film is more important to express the attitude towards life and the world view it expresses. Whether it's pessimistic or positive, it's amazing that it can make people find a little resonance and touch in this real life. Many bad films are not only bad in terms of technical processing, but even emotionally unable to convince the viewers! From this point of view, the film is a good one.

A Lala detective who fought for her partner's pension rights after changing to an incurable disease said, "I'm not fighting for same-sex marriage, and I don't want to discuss politics. I just want fairness." This made my eyes warm.

do you know? I actually think of the recent incident of artists paying taxes. In addition to dissatisfaction with artists' usual income, there is also prejudice against certain artists. Shouldn't we pay more attention to the rationality of the rules in this process? After all, this rationality and the supervision of the use of rights will definitely affect us in the future. We are all standing on the edge of the abyss, and no one can be an exception.

At the end of the movie, Laura's heterosexual colleagues finally stand up and fight for her rights. In fact, they wouldn't have such troubles even if they didn't fight for her rights, but I think they understand that upholding fairness trumps all other beliefs and lifestyles. superior.

The world is not perfect because it is run by people. We must admit that human beings themselves are imperfect and have many, many prejudices and shortcomings, so we need more reasonable rules to supervise power and strive for fairness and justice. May you and I go forward on this road...

    Barely four stars. The script is so bad that it doesn't even get to the point of sensationalism, what really saves the film is the real events it's based on. The film also succeeds in "Goodbye My Groom" by giving the American marriage affirmation movement a real, concrete face, letting everyone know how many tears and garlands there are before reaching the finish line.

    The story is flat, so-so
