On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Yimou's new work "Article 20" was released.
The title of the film is taken from the "Article 20" of the Criminal Law, which tells the story of the justice and human feelings behind the law of "legitimate defense".
On February 11 and 12, the Supreme People's Procuratorate officially published two articles commenting on the film; On the 12th, Luo Xiang also posted **, "This matter is really close to everyone".
I also went to the theater and was very impressed. The movie "Article 20" tells the story of Han Mingren, a temporary prosecutor, who is middle-aged and wants to fight hard in his career, but is unexpectedly involved in a case with huge differences. He eliminated the interference of all parties, kept the bottom line of the law, applied the law accurately, and returned justice to the parties.
Director Zhang Yimou expressed the heavy topic of legitimate defense in the form of comedy in the ** file of the Spring Festival, which made people laugh heartily and couldn't help but cry again. In the case of dealing with the case of the righteous and courageous bus driver, it can be seen that "look**, this paragraph is legitimate defense, this paragraph is mutual assault, and this paragraph is intentional injury", the bus driver who acted bravely was sentenced to 3 years in prison, and his family was ruined. What made Han Ming wake up was that his son Han Yuchen, who was in middle school, injured the son of the teaching director in the process of stopping school bullying and faced administrative detention. There is also the stubborn persistence of the female prosecutor Lu Lingling in the case of Wang Yongqiang's justifiable defense and killing of the bully. Prosecutor Lu Lingling said: What we are handling is not a case, but their lives. The righteous and upright female prosecutor was demoted because of disobedience and was later transferred from the post of prosecutor.
Legitimate defense is a matter of you and me, and no one can stay out of it.
In the video of Wang Yongqiang's case at the final hearing of the film, Wang Yongqiang was chained to guard the door, and the bully was in the house ** Wang Yongqiang's wife Hao Xiuping, Hao Xiuping went out and said in dumb language that she didn't want to live, Wang Yongqiang went out to beat the bully, but he couldn't beat the bully, but was beaten by the bully, the bully said to get in the car and get a knife, Wang Yongqiang went back to the yard and took a pair of scissors to kill the bully with several bayonets. And throughout the whole play, Lu Lingling is looking for the knife on the bully's car. In fact, according to the plot of the bully invading the house, ** woman, and beating and insulting Wang Yongqiang, regardless of whether the bully had a knife in the car or not, Wang Yongqiang's direct killing of the bully should also be justified defense, but the leaders of the procuratorate insisted on prosecuting for intentional injury or homicide.
There are too few righteous prosecutors like Lu Lingling!
The justice and integrity of the prosecutors mentioned in this film, but in reality, there are too many prosecutors who do not act and act indiscriminately. Otherwise, if the departments responsible for supervision and procuratorial work can shoulder their own responsibilities, there will not be so many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases throughout the country.
This work directed by Zhang Yimou is close to social reality, thought-provoking, exciting, and a rare good work. The staging of the movie "Article 20" shows that the righteousness of our country is rising, and the cowardice in the face of swallowing anger is decreasing.
