There is no objection to "Spotlight" going to the top of the Oscars, a film arguably the most powerful of Oscar's best films in recent years, because the script is enough to trigger some kind of social thinking, like Oliver Stone's "Assassination of Kennedy."
Unlike the story of the semi-true and semi-suspicious of the story, the truth of "Spotlight" almost accurately restores the event itself, and even the narrative is as cool as the documentary. I think it's Hollywood's blessing to be able to produce a movie like this. Because if you meet vulgar investors, the whole movie will add a lot of dramatic bridge segments, the film is probably a different tone. Fortunately, this is a subtraction of the film, there is no excessive agitation, no fierce rhythm, no force too hard music. Only the real thing and the low-key scene handling technique, everything is pertinent to state the whole event, let the audience think about the role played by the media in society, what is the news value and a series of issues. The proposition chosen by the film is grandiose, and perhaps we do not yet know what is at stake, and for a country with a religious faith, a single priest is not enough to relate to the heavy proposition of faith, but to think of the last counted figures and the scope of the inference that can be destroyed enough to destroy faith. The details of the film are in place, in the process of interviewing the victims, through their language, demeanor, body movements, the pinhole on the arm shown by the catharsis of anger, character defects, psychological torture, we can really feel the individual in the face of the power of despair, more desperate, Stanley · The lawyer Touzy played to the Reporter: My victim was lucky because he was still alive.
We will not be wondering exactly what buried the victim's life. There is no doubt that the powerful church power is the main cause, people fear his vast, more subject to his authority. The corrupt system, the cowardly bishop, the festering operating system is still in operation, and whenever there is resistance, there is a blatant compromise with the responsibility of the city, and the distress of the bureaucrats is manipulated to manipulate the bureaucratic joint crackdown, as in the case of lawyers. Not only did he destroy the human body, the human spirit, but he also buried the conscience of the people, the courage of the people, and gave birth to the police court, the meritocratic lawyer, regardless of the question.
This is a big net of interest weaving, and finally incineration must be the foundation of society. So how the value of the media's existence is reflected, the film gives a very clear answer: to use action to disclose the system, to become a true social watchdog. The lens captures in large numbers the prudent and realistic attitude of media workers, such as the verification of interviews, the contrast of careful verification, and the thought game that takes place inside the work, in which Michael Keaton plays Robinson as the boss of the focus team, A persuasive remark, such as the cover-up of a school director, is a good example of the quality of a good media man, and I appreciate him. Another reason was that the film had been reported to the Boston Globe many years ago, while those in charge of the metropolitan sector turned a deaf ear, until finally revealing that the person in charge was Keaton.
The film does not consecrate these media workers, they will make mistakes, will ignore, is not perfect, just when the opportunity to correct the wrong to the temporary whether you have the courage to face the failure of the year, I think the film shows this courage is more valuable. In short, "focus" level is clear, far-reaching, is a rare good film, he let us have a glimpse of the working state of the first-line media people, elaborated on how a fair and free media to deal with social injustice, expressed the media to the existence of the value of society, I think this should be the film to the top of the Oscars.
