A few days ago, I watched a few episodes of " Bottom Line ", I judged it as a sweet idol drama that praised the judge, and got the support of many friends, but some people thought that I was narrow-minded, and when I saw the TV series that praised the judge, I was heartbroken. Uncomfortable, red eyes. I watched a few more episodes recently, and I saw the 12th episode, which confirmed that it is a sweet idol drama in which has no brains and sings praises to the judge.
is not jealous, jealous, nor jealous, nor dare to discriminate against the profession of judges, but only looks at the show objectively from the perspective of an audience. TV dramas are deductive art, and art comes from life but is higher than life. Therefore, some people think that we should not be picky, as long as the actors' acting skills are online, I agree with this, but with conditions.
If it were an ordinary idol drama, I would definitely not waste time writing drama reviews. However, the drama "Bottom Line" is not ordinary. It is both a political and legal drama. It tells about the most classic cases that have happened to our common people in recent years. It is also a French popular drama about real people and real events, and it is also a practical drama about how a court judge analyzes a case and tries a case. , the whole process of post-judgment and answering questions.
And I am a lawyer and I often handle cases, so I have more opportunities to deal with court judges, and I have more knowledge of the actual situation. Because of this, I think TV dramas of this type and theme should be as realistic as possible The original face of the facts, seek truth from facts, of course, some practical things are difficult to be photographed, which is understandable, but based on the plot of these 12 episodes, more than half of the content is trying to depict how the judge is stalwart, tall, selfless, fraternity, well, well, Praise the judge I can endure.
What I can't bear is to praise judges and demean lawyers all the time, to set off the nobility, sanctity, and greatness of judges' profession, and to set off judges' fraternity, selflessness and dedication. This method is not only narrow, but also unfair. It is very unobjective. It is suspected of occupational discrimination and is full of malice towards lawyers and the lawyer profession. As a TV series with the main theme, it is understandable to be a little selfish. The means are somewhat despicable.
I am a lawyer, and because of this sacred profession, I think I must stand up and speak for lawyers. This kind of TV drama itself has a high degree of attention, and its every move will affect the value judgment and rational cognition of the audience who do not understand the market. In view of this, I should speak up.
my country's trial system is basically divided into criminal, civil and administrative. The difference between administrative and civil is not obvious, and criminal trial is more obvious than civil and administrative trial, but the basic point is the same, that is, the judge is neutral in a case , Judges make judgments in the center, make judgments based on facts, law and evidence, impartiality, and strive to be fair and just.
Therefore, in a criminal case, the roles of prosecutors, lawyers, and judges are different and very important. The prosecution and defense have their own responsibilities, and it is difficult to advance the trial without either party. In civil and administrative cases, the role of the lawyer is also very important. The plaintiff's lawyer collects evidence, writes legal documents, prepares complete litigation materials, and sends it to the court for filing. The defendant's lawyer collects the opposite evidence and writes a defense opinion. Lawyers are tit for tat, and the judge grasps the rhythm of the court trial and controls the scene, so that the facts, laws, and evidence of the case can be clarified and restored, and the judge will make a comprehensive judgment based on the trial situation.
Although "Bottom Line" is based on the theme of judges, it aims to highlight judges and interpret the glorious image of judges, but the plot ignores and depreciates the value and role of lawyers in handling cases intentionally or unintentionally, which is unacceptable. You must know a lot. Lawyers are actively participating and promoting legal aid and wrongful convictions. Lawyers are not scumbags who deliberately oppose judges, but are important participants, contributors and practitioners of the social rule of law.
"Bottom Line" comprehensively shows the despicable, negative, and useless image of lawyers. Compared with the high energy of the judges in the play, lawyers are completely useless. I have to admit that in real life, there are indeed some lawyers who have a rat shit and mess up a pot of soup. , smears the image of lawyers, but most lawyers are dedicated, serious and responsible. Many lawyers I have contacted are walking on thin ice, working overtime, digging deeply and carefully in specific cases, and paying a lot for a legal issue. Great efforts are made to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties to the maximum extent, and sometimes even at the expense of the judge.Fighting red-faced, or bearing the burden of humiliation, just to fight for more legitimate rights and interests for the parties.
"The Bottom Line" one-sidedly displays the negative image of lawyers, but it is actually deliberately trying to harass lawyers. As a main theme TV series, including any TV series, it will convey some value orientation. I see that the value orientation conveyed by "The Bottom Line" is that lawyers are domineering and domineering. The power is shrewd and rubbish. It is the resistance and nail for the judge to judge the case, and the judge is always right. Even if it is wrong, it is not the reason for the judge. Tall, stalwart, and glorious, this kind of interpretation and expression is really brainless. Judges are not saints. , is it embarrassing to make a mistake?
A slap doesn't make a sound. Without a lawyer participating in the case, the court judge will be alone. There is really no need to downgrade the lawyer in order to exalt the judge. Everything has two sides. This kind of perfect image can be created in the play, but it can only show that in reality, we are very short of such an image. Let’s have fun, but please remember: the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard!
