If Angel-A brings us back to the Parisian atmosphere of decades ago, then this film is a documentary about the United States in the 1950s. In a social environment that frantically suppresses the Communist Party and its sympathizers, journalists dare to challenge the views and policies of the Speaker. Because freedom of speech and freedom of belief are the foundation of the American concept of human rights, because people believe in their own rights and respect the rights of others.
Quoting Edward R Murrow's speech in the film, "We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine; and remember that we are not descended from fearful men. Not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate, and to defend causes that were for the moment unpopular."
"We can not defend freedom abroad, while desert it at home."
