1. The influence of American culture
The film is entirely on the side of the United States, no doubt about that. And the propaganda of the whole theme of this movie is very powerful. What makes me sigh is that the world is inadvertently accepting the American theme and public opinion. Why can the US do this? Because American media and propaganda wraps its core interests under the arts and the humanities, the wrapping is so deep and so perfect that we simply don't realize that some of our perspectives have been changed.
Why have Muslims and pre-socialists resisted Western culture represented by the United States? As a policy that has been widely used for a long time and has continued to a certain extent, there must be deep considerations. Preventing propaganda is for sure, but communism and Muslims have propaganda too. If we compare it carefully, we will find that the propaganda of communism is often unreliable, because its propaganda does not have a basis to support it. In today's world, universalism and humanism stand on the moral high ground, and the influence of propaganda depends on this high ground.
The highest state of propaganda is that it cannot be seen that he is a propaganda at all, and American popular culture has such a state.
2. The contradiction
is that I know the intentions of American culture, but I still love him. This is due to the outer layer of American values - putting people first. This is too easy to please people by nature, because people are born to be an economic person, and essentially they have to think about themselves.
The mid-level and high-level decision in the movie to cancel the filming of the film to disguise the rescue and use force to rescue it again reflects the inner values of the United States, that is, the national interests of the United States. At this time, the human text has been overtaken by the core interests of the United States. It is far more beneficial to the United States for the embassy staff to be executed by the Iranian side than to be found to be fraudulent and used as spies.
The fact that these processing details can be made into a movie also illustrates the paradox of the United States.
All in all, this is a good movie, the historical plot of the movie and the history of Iran are things worth continuing to explore after watching the movie.
