When they look at you, they want to be you.
When they look at me, they find themselves.
在電影《尼克松》的結(jié)尾,安東尼·霍普金斯看著白宮的肯尼迪畫像,不由生出感慨。既生瑜,何生亮?1960年大選,經(jīng)驗(yàn)老道的老政客,八年共和黨副總統(tǒng),在電視屏幕前敗在參議員肯尼迪手中,1968年大選時(shí),若不是羅伯特·肯尼迪競選時(shí)遇刺,他也無法順利當(dāng)選。電影中,尼克松只要一有機(jī)會,就對肯尼迪,肯尼迪三兄弟,乃至整個(gè)來自上流社會的精英分子所表現(xiàn)出切齒痛恨,認(rèn)為人們討厭他的緣故,很大程度上就是因?yàn)樗錾碡毢?,仕途燦爛得毫無道理。
雖然奧利弗·斯通以陰謀論撰寫美國20世紀(jì)史的精神,延續(xù)《刺殺肯尼迪》一片的拍攝手法,敘述尼克松自大,自私,專橫的政治生涯,但是在影片結(jié)尾處,還是以尼克松的葬禮為切入點(diǎn),正面承認(rèn)了尼克松政策對20世紀(jì)最后25年美國政治乃至世界政治的影響。結(jié)束越戰(zhàn),樹立中美蘇均勢平衡,尼克松在國內(nèi)沒得到什么好臉,在國際政策上卻能順潮流而動,雖然有很大原因是靠他的國務(wù)卿基辛格。福特,卡特,里根,布什,克林頓
You cannot stop it, can you? Even if you wanted to. Because it’s not you, it’s the system. The system won’t let you stop it.
Then what’s the point? What’s the point of being president? You are powerless.
Because I understand the system. I believe I can control it, maybe, not control it totally. But tame it enough to do some good.
Sounds like you are talking about a wild animal.
