该片是2013年纪录片《龙老一生》的续集，也是纪录片导演蒋能杰发起的抗战老兵系列纪录片中的一部。
龙运松：一名普通的中国远征军老兵，一直默默生活，不愿谈及英勇往事。龙老在耄耋之年，面对着镜头回顾自己一生；抓壮丁参军、转战南北、妻子另嫁、松山战役、接收日本投降等。
而今， 当年英雄疾病缠身，晚年落寞，老无所依，一直不明白，当年就是抗日了，怎么就成了反革命和兵痞了，还想着晚年能得到国家的认可，2014年龙老归队，而葬礼的悼词让我们反思。
A veteran, Mr. Long’s life was full of legend. Yet, he lived his life in silence and never told others about his experience in the battlefield. There were many scars on his body and he got three shots only in the Songshan Battle. One of them went through between the bones and the scar had been apparently seen so far.
Mr. Long went to the battlefield in the year he got married, where he received a letter from his wife. It read,” I’m going to remarry, may I get your approval?” Later on, Jiang Kai Sing was defeated and asked them to go to Taiwan together. Mr. Long refused,” No, I haven’t seen my parents for years.” However, when he got back to his hometown, his parents passed away soon and his wife had got remarried for two years. After that, he never got married again and lived his whole life in loneliness.
Mr. Long was defined as a bad guy or solider riffraff during the Cultural Revolution period. Afterwards, when people asked him about his experience in the battlefield, he got scared as political investigation came to his mind immediately. “I’ve explained everything in those years, why you’ve come to ask me again? I’ve explained so many times.” To get rehabilitated, he kept visiting leaders of relevant institutions. All his family persuaded him not to do so, because “You’re the Kuomintang’s solider.”
He was getting worse and worse with severe stomach problems, no care from children and high medical fees. He said,” I can’t get cured. If I don’t die this year, I’ll die next year. There’s no point living for a few more years. I’d better die today and I don’t want to be human being next life. It’s too tough.”
Only until 2013, the national Ministry of Civil Affairs announced official documents to rehabilitate the anti-war soldiers. Meanwhile, the ministry promised that there were funds to deal with difficulties in their old ages. When Mr. Long heard this, he could not conceal his excitement with trembling all over. He kept asking,” Is it for real?” However, he had passed away before he received the pension. In Mr. Long’s funeral, a villager announced the memorial speech loudly, which drew us into deep thought……
在细节上丰盈充沛，在主题上却直接干脆。弗兰克·兰格拉饰演的那个情绪化又不称职的大法官，甚至颇有些暗讽特朗普的意思。
3.8/ 最有冲击的剪辑部分在暴乱过程的交叉，历史总有记录，却也总有人掩盖。「全世界都在看」。名单一出，鸡皮疙瘩都起来了。霍夫曼说「给我点时间，我还从未因为我的思想被审判」的时候突然让人觉得魅力四射。BTW：没有出租车的豆瓣，现在搜索出来的V相关信息是「制作V：自由永在」那么，在哪里？
不要忘了我们为什么这么做的意义。不把它当作真实，就拿来比喻。人生有太多被别的事情东拉西扯，别忘了意义。
建议收录入学生必看电影。剧本没得说，节奏和结构都很精美；点面结合，比如那个兄弟会意图强奸示威女生的点，我这个女性观众的注意力已经被点燃了。矛盾也安排得很妙，明线是政府，暗线是两个不同的左派。审判结尾不是很燃的反抗“fuck you”，而是最偏激的嬉皮士冷静的诉说着保守宗教的道理，以及回归本心地念失去生命的士兵名字，没有为了爽而流于表面，回归了做个人都能理解的“肯定个人价值和尊严”这一人道主义思想上，可惜保守观众早就被前面的表达赶走了，留下观影的只剩沮丧的进步派。片尾的字幕把五年牢狱说得很轻松，还是肯定了美国的体制。感觉主角们还是很幸运，因为他们从来都不会因为政府的轻蔑而自厌，认可他们价值的来源不会因为政府的轻蔑而消失，我觉得社会能做到这点就算踏入可以活的门槛了。
全世界都看得到。
用电影渲染的形式代替纪录片还原历史事件的确是十分叫座也讨巧的手艺，最后一幕念名单的时候倒不见法警上前制止。一场审判杂糅着社会底层的自我正视、白人阶层的种族歧视，美国宪法或者说各国披着法律外衣的zzhi此刻又忘记了建立联邦zf的初衷

剪辑太好了，印象很深刻。主要人物的塑造也很好，让我觉得他们每个人都有不一样的有趣的地方，太喜欢艾比了，真的很有魅力的人啊。如果要示威游行，还是应该带个头盔，被打脑袋真的很疼诶！
两个小时像是过分地拉长了中段，然后突然高潮。
4.5。非常適合艾倫·索金的題材，從文本到結構，甚至導演技法，都隱忍卻風格顯著。只是結尾的渲染略有點強硬的感覺，不知道是不是純粹我觀感出現的問題。
sorkin真的是讨厌留白，密密麻麻中的明明白白，刚看完fred hampton的另一部片子，今年academy award居然还内部联动起来
相當精彩的劇本和調度,角色設計立體演員也非常出色,由頭至尾相當緊湊,當中不乏很多精彩對白和對於社會上的批判,在此段時間播出,無論在美國或者是對此相當熟悉的香港,真是別有一番體會,Give me a moment, would you, friend? I've never been on trail for my thoughts before
我們需要這類的電影，雖然在某一節點上屬於挑撥觀眾情緒的視聽手法，但是其電影所呈現的角度確實犀利的，值得人們思考的，也願意去挖掘更多背後的歷史價值的，那其實就是一部好的電影。
倒数第二段前司法长出庭作证让人燃起希望，最后一段内部预演激烈又还原事实真相，庭上逐一报5000多名越战逝去的年轻生命，震撼。电影不错，但对外文名字名盲，每次看这样的庭审都吃力，来回看了几遍才把后一小时看完。

结尾的总结陈词一下子让我想起《辩护人》一下子戳中了泪框，而电影里展示的集会时与警察们的对持又难以不想到19年的香港。虽是七君子，但电影中心主要是彼此看不上的两位以及一位黑人身上，通过他们窜起庭审的同时窜起了游行，庭审的结尾同样也是游行的高潮，这种叙事很棒。自由从来都是争取来的！
网飞牛逼。
情绪是在的，也理应被调动，但并不是每次站起来都要配乐慷慨激昂一番的，Sorkin做导演就有点太陶醉自己了，以至于我反而想看个纪录片冷静冷静。
法庭片这个种类在国内是没有的，二欧美的则越拍越精彩，文斗比武斗还要好看。
the whole world is watching.
