"Jones's Free Country" ~ The film tells about the events of the American Civil War. Those deserters who understood the nature of the war and did not want to participate in the battle, and the black slaves who fled from the farm, jointly established Jones, the free country. ~Director Gary Rose, the director of the "Hunger Games", has been produced almost every four years and is also a screenwriter, so in terms of plot, deserters and niggers, that freedom has more abundant possibilities to play meaning. The film should be sequential, but the scene of the current court session is inserted in the middle, and even the court scene is not cut in. The voice of the debate at the court appears directly in the film, allowing the film picture and sound to be presented at the same time. Different time and place, this novel is relatively novel, and it will also arouse speculation and attention from the audience. Matthew McConaughey, the protagonist, is the explosive actor of "Dallas Buyers Club". That film seems to be at the time The score is very high, but apart from 廋, it’s really hard to tell the big features. This one is also without merit; it’s the black slave actress Gugu Mbata-Lao, who is my best in this film. Like it, it adds a lot of color to this long film with few female shots, and I hope to see her better movies in the future~ The whole film is more than two hours, there are big movies looking forward to it, but it has not become a blockbuster temperament~

    The whole film is basically supported by Matthew McConaughey’s acting skills. There are few supporting roles and the overall plot lacks climax. It seems that every segment is quite burning, but when put together, it is impossible to tell the specific main line. Where is the anti-war in the first half and civil rights in the second half. Although this is the case in history, filmmaking still has to be focused. What I don’t like most is the scene after eighty years of non-stop cutting. The director likes to tell stories with subtitles so much, why don’t you use subtitles!

    A man who never stops fighting, from protecting his homeland against tyranny to fighting racial discrimination and fighting for equal rights, the pursuit of freedom runs through his life. People have the right to be born free, and this is a never-ending war. Every time I watch Matthew McConaughey perform is a treat.
