If I want to say that this year’s Spring Festival movie is my favorite, it has to be "Article 20".
First of all, the judicial spirit of fairness and justice that the movie aims to explain can inspire deep resonance among the people.
As literary and artistic works, films should carry forward the main theme, convey positive energy, and express the aspirations of the people.
There is no doubt that at this level, "Article 20" has completely achieved it.
director Zhang Yimou used Wang Yongqiang's "justifiable defense" case to fully demonstrate the core and extension of fairness and justice through the words and deeds of the prosecutor, allowing the people watching the movie to truly feel the strength and warmth of the law.
has many paragraphs and lines that are still fresh in your memory.
For example, prosecutor Han Ming, played by Lei Jiayin , made an impassioned speech at the hearing:
"Have you ever thought: What we are handling is not a case, but a person's life!
How important fairness and justice is to the people! And how important it is. It is difficult to do.
It is said that a crime pollutes a river, and a wrong ruling pollutes the entire water source.
What is fairness? What is justice? I believe that everyone here sympathizes with the Wang Yongqiang family from the bottom of their hearts. Then should we bury this sympathy in our hearts?
What is the law in fact? For ordinary people, it is very simple, it is fairness and unfairness.
We all know that litigating a lawsuit is expensive and difficult, so why do ordinary people still fight? Isn't that right? Do you want fairness and justice?
I know it is difficult to change some things. There is a price to pay for pursuing fairness and justice, but who will bear this price? The common people! Should we let them use their own destiny, the destiny of the entire family, or even several generations? Should we bear the price of fairness and justice?
The "Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China" has a total of 452 articles and 56,681 words. From the beginning to the end, there are only four words: fairness and justice. !
Isn’t this what every common person wants!
If we can’t listen to them and seek justice for them, then what’s the use of our prosecutors?
What is the law? It’s natural law, national law, and human relations. .
I do not believe in national laws without natural justice, nor do I believe in natural justice without human feelings.
I hope that everyone can speak from their hearts, make decisions that are worthy of their conscience, and respond to the demands of every common people with true fairness and justice. , to respond to their emotions, to respond to their simplest expectations.
Let everyone in the world understand this:
The law makes it more expensive for bad people to commit crimes, not for good people to take action! The law cannot give in to illegality!"
"Where does the authority of the law come from? It comes from the simplest emotional expectations of the people!"
These words not only express the aspirations of ordinary people, but also express the aspirations of many legal professionals.
These words not only allowed prosecutors as professional legal professionals and ordinary people to reach an unprecedented consensus, but also achieved an unprecedented unity of legal effects, political effects, and social effects.
As the saying goes: human feelings are greater than national laws, national laws cannot suppress natural principles, and natural principles are nothing more than human emotions. These three are intrinsically unified and complementary to each other. This is perfectly reflected in the words and deeds of the prosecutor in this film.
Secondly, this film is also one that I have personally watched, and it is the most comprehensive and three-dimensional film and television work that shows the profession of prosecutor.
In recent years, there have been many film and television works that reflect the profession of prosecutors, such as "The Silent Truth", "In the Name of the People", "Itinerant Prosecution Team", "People's Prosecutor", "The Decisive Court", and "Public Prosecution" , "Hello Prosecutor", "Prosecution Storm", "The Truth"... Popular TV series such as "The Silent Truth", "In the Name of the People", "Inspection Team", etc., although they are of high quality and have a good reputation, but Most of them show the major cases of anti-corruption and crackdown on organized crime, which seem a bit far away from the lives of ordinary people.
However, the "Article 20" directed by Zhang Yimou involves several cases that are closely related to the common people, such as Wang Yongqiang's "justifiable defense" caused by Liu Wenjing's rape, and Zhang Guisheng's courageous act that turned into intentional injury. case, as well as the case in which Han Ming's son stopped bullying at school and had a fight with the son of the director of the Education Department, Zhang Ke. One of these cases is a case that prosecutor Han Ming is handling, one is a case that Han Ming handled before, and the other is The case his family is going through. These cases may not seem to be shocking cases, but it is the small cases that are closely related to the common people that can better reflect the value and significance of prosecutors, and also allow the general audience to better understand the work of prosecutors and what they think. Thoughts.
For example, when prosecutor Han Ming handled the case of Wang Yongqiang, his case handling philosophy was constantly changing. At the beginning, he paid more attention to the application of legal provisions and reference from previous cases. He considered more: whether it complied with legal regulations, whether there was relevant case support, and whether it would affect his career. What he reflected was a " "Follow the crowd and don't make mistakes" approach to case handling.
From a practical perspective, there is no big problem with Han Ming’s ideas and practices. Maybe in reality, many judges and prosecutors handle cases this way. Including in the movie, after Lu Lingling was suspended, Han Ming argued with her: This is how so many cases have been handled for so many years!
But when Zhang Guisheng died in an accident in a car accident while petitioning, Wang Yongqiang's wife Hao Xiuping jumped off the building out of despair, and his family was tortured because of his son... This series of internal and external troubles and various incidents were entangled, forcing... Han Ming, a veteran prosecutor who is good at handling difficult problems, good at protecting oneself wisely, and good at harmoniously "playing Tai Chi", began to seriously reflect and return to his original intention - "All right things have a price, but you can't not do it just because of the price."
I particularly appreciate the screenwriter and director's portrayal of the character of prosecutor Han Ming, which is very real and down-to-earth. He is not only a professional lawyer and prosecutor, but also an ordinary person of flesh and blood. For example, when it comes to handling his son's apology, although he is a prosecutor, he still has to show weakness and bow his head in "Game of Thrones"; For another example, facing the approaching date of closing the case and the attention of superior leaders, he also felt a lot of helplessness and pressure. Faced with these practical difficulties, he would also struggle, he would hesitate, and he would also have selfish motives, but in the end he strengthened his ideals and beliefs, shouldered responsibility and responsibility, and regained his original intention of enforcing the law for the people, fairness and justice. This makes Han Ming's character and even the entire movie particularly amiable, approachable, and believable!
Finally, I have to praise the actors in this movie for their excellent performances!
As a long-established director, Zhang Yimou has a unique vision in selecting actors. There are more than 20 famous actors in this film. In addition to the leading actors Lei Jiayin, Ma Li, Gao Ye and others, there are also supporting actors such as Zhao Liying, Liu Yaowen, Wang Xiao, Chen Minghao, Pan Binlong, Zhang Yi, Fan Wei, Yu Hewei, Xu Yajun, Li Naiwen, Jiang Qiming, Aruna, Yang Haoyu, Qiao Shan, Jiang Shimeng, Wang Peilu, Ding Yongdai, Liu Yitie, Shi Pengyuan, Song Muzi, Chen Yongsheng, Song Jiateng and others are also well-known film and television actors.
Among them, there are four actors who impressed me the most.
The first one is Lei Jiayin. The prosecutor Han Ming he plays in the film is both simple, mature and easy-going. He is versatile in work and life. He can easily resolve the problems caused by the masses and solve problems for the leaders; in the face of life He also took good care of trivial difficulties and dealt with them calmly. He can not only make jokes and act coquettishly with his wife at home, but he can also quarrel with scholars at hearings, speak for the people, and speak out for justice.
is a comedy movie released during the Spring Festival. I also especially like to watch him and his wife played by Ma Li laughing and yelling. In urging the children to apologize, giving gifts to the director of the education department, and explaining their first love with Lu Lingling, the two People often talk to each other, fight each other, and fight with each other. Lei Jiayin fully demonstrated his comedy talent of controlling small characters and being good at playing the doormat, interpreting a good father, a good husband, and a kind-hearted prosecutor. Every detail is subtle and vivid.
The second one is Ma Li. In the past, the public’s fixed thinking was that she and Shen Teng were a perfect match; but in this movie, she and Lei Jiayin’s husband-and-wife team are “real”, and their cooperation is called a silk Smooth and seamless. The two people's seemingly relaxed and casual conversation provided all kinds of laughs.
The third one is Chen Minghao. Previously in " The Long Season ", his Latin dance left a deep impression on everyone. This time he played the police chief and prosecutor Han Ming's brother-in-law, which added to the film. There were a lot of laughs, especially the two scenes where Lei Jiayin, Ma Li, and Chen Minghao were together. One scene was when they had dinner together and discussed getting Director Zhang to withdraw the case; the other scene was when the case failed to be withdrawn, and the three of them complained to each other in the car. There are a lot of lines in these two scenes, and the three people's sense of rhythm is also very good. They are basically "talking fast". The three people tease and demean each other, making them laugh frequently and bursting with laughter; the humor and drama of the language The conflict reached a climax in these two scenes, and the performance capabilities of the three actors can be said to be evenly matched.
It is the joining of these comedy actors that makes this movie with a strong professional theme that explores fairness and justice, analyzes legal principles and human relationships, more easily accepted and liked by the common people. For this reason alone, we must praise the skill of director Zhang Yimou. Several cases involved in this film are all tragic upon closer inspection, but Zhang Yimou did not blindly use tragic methods to restore them, but It is adjusted and diluted through some comedy methods and the performances of comedy actors. The final declaration of justice and the happy ending also released the audience's emotions.
The fourth actor, and the one who surprised me the most and gave me the most amazing feeling is Zhao Liying who plays Hao Xiuping. In the past, she always played strong heroines, but she made a 180-degree change in this drama. She played a deaf-mute village girl who was raped many times by bullies and endured the humiliation to survive for her daughter. She was so pitiful and even heart-wrenching. Heartache. Especially in the scene of jumping off a building, her pain, fear, helplessness, and despair, without a single line, were vividly expressed in her silent cries, panicked gestures, and begging eyes. At that time, I secretly felt I exclaimed: What a great performance!
Although this film has many advantages, I personally prefer it.
But to be honest, there are still some details that are not satisfactory and worthy of discussion.
For example, before the villagers dared not speak out in anger, and no one dared to tell the truth despite repeated visits by prosecutors and police. Why did someone dare to report Hao Xiuping as soon as she jumped from the building? Shouldn't it be that he is even more frightened and dare not say a word?
Regarding Zhang Ke’s campus bullying, the school’s attitude has always been non-committal. How come it was suddenly confirmed? Speaking of this matter, the school has the biggest problem. If it had been investigated and verified earlier, it would not have caused so many troubles later.
Therefore, the design of these conflicts, especially the resolution of the conflicts in the end, is somewhat deliberate, which will give the audience a feeling that the complicated things before were solved in no time, which seems unreal.
