I had watched "Philadelphia Review" at yesterday night and "JFK" at today morning. Both are great movies but they are supposed to be categorized as "old movies". Both of them are talking about law and had given great impacts to the societies. Not only law, but also humanity, I think.
"Philadelphia Review" by Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. In this movie, Tom Hanks was a young, great lawyer , good guy and homosexual. He had AIDS. He was sacked after his colleagues knew about his illness. He was set up by his colleagues who were lawyers. Denzel Washington, a great lawyer who was prejudice to homosexual, represented Tom Hanks to sue his former employers.
"JFK" is talking about John Fitzgerald Kennedy's assassination. Jim Garrison who was casting by Kevin Costner , doubted there was a conspiracy in JFK's death. He read the whole Warren Commissioner's report and found a lot of mistake in the report. As a head of DA(District Attorney) of New Orleans, he investigated the whole case and discovered that so many parties were involved in the assassination. Witnesses were killed , rumours, menace......He brought Clay Shaw to the courts and tried to prove he was one of the accomplices of the whole assassination and Lee Oswald was only a scapegoat. However, he failed. I terribly love his closing statement, it was so touching . Jim Garrison couldn't stop his tear when he was doing his closing statement. This is a real story.
p/s: "JFK" is a 3.5 hr movie, exhausting.
