斯通在片子里对普京的态度真的可以用“温柔”来形容,太温柔以至于,即便斯通一次又一次地提起普京的克格勃背景,普京也欣然接话,我都还是无法把冷酷特务或强权领袖的形象叠加到荧幕上这个温和又睿智的男子身上。
有美国媒体评价称,斯通展现了一个“vulnerable ”的普京,可谓精准。十项全能的普京可以轻松地成为网红,但人们更容易爱上一个有弱点的英雄,一个具备“a warm heart, a cool head, and clean hands”的柔情铁汉。
(顺便推荐一本传记 The New Tsar: the Rise and Reign of Vladimir Putin)
也许斯通真的是想换个位置去体会俄罗斯的想法吧。言谈之间,没有西方记者常有的那种可恶的傲慢,实属难能可贵。
普京如此聪明。

看了一点导演在美国上节目的片段,这些主持人可真是狭隘愚蠢粗鲁至极。不得不用到这些词,因为实在令人生气。
Putin is definitely not a 'democratic' person, no doubt of that. However, when you keep saying 'Putin is a killer' to Stone's face, it means either you have not watched the documentary at all or you are probably having trouble understanding basic human languages.
They showed no respect for Stone's work. Worse still, they always pretended that the U.S. had never interfered in other countries' internal affairs. This attitude is so very disgusting.
All powers are not clean. No one is innocent. And if you still want to lie, please try learning from Putin - don't forget your courtesy.
