A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic.
Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself.
Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move...
With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia.
'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics; Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2; Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable; and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer.
Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?
企图用高强度的对白协同剪辑制造出本不存在于历史情境当中的情感波动，但本质是以违背现实情境作前提的，因此是一部电视剧。对历史还原毫无塑造“在场”的意识，十足证明艾伦·索金对历史事件复原的兴奋点是一种粗暴意淫的快感。
4.5 I think the institutions of our democracy are wonderful things
仿佛在看好老婆。立个flag今年补完West Wing！
很精彩的法庭戏，剪辑十分紧凑，审判时刻的“简短”陈词，燃点和泪点并存，激动人心。科恩这个激进嬉皮士角色很是抢眼。

近年来编过的最难的稿子里，一个个人名忽然都活了过来，活在了最爱的编剧写的、导的电影里。
很好的音乐剧，但这是一个音乐剧的录像带，而不是电影。
调度好厉害。虽然说主题立意远大于故事本身，但一个半小时我还是从头哭到尾。喜欢用圣经交流，加油站默哀，消防员妈妈和凌晨四点做德餐这几个片段！可能因为时长和故事基调，一些问题讨论得浅尝辄止。
本想着看着睡了，没想到一口气看完了，只有震惊，感动，艾伦索金的剧作和导演水平都是好莱坞顶峰级的 全世界都在看着
既工整纯熟，又曲折激情。Sorkin 就适合制作这类历史性或纪实性强的片子，节奏感好的一批。4.5星。
托尼奖获奖百老汇音乐剧《来自远方》被改编成电影。影片取自9.11当天加拿大甘德镇接纳了6600名意外迫降的旅客，并共处了3天的美好时光。世界大同，却又大而不同。既有9.11的恐袭，又有甘德镇无私的义举。在舞台上的演员，轮流切换着不同的身份，居民或是乘客，落叶聚还散，寒鸦栖复惊。
爸，警察打你怎么办？警察怎么会打我呢？我和平、守法而有礼貌。结果，哈哈。1968 Chicago; 2019⋯⋯。
大爱人间
相比波兰斯基的我控诉，这片通篇热血直接的反映双方冲突的不可调和，电影很直接很热血，但细细想起来可以发现，通篇完全站在抗议者的一面，编剧或者导演左的十分彻底，所以究竟这是不是真实的历史，所以是一个纪录片还是一个演绎片，才真正决定这个电影的高度
太敬业了，一人饰演几个角色还那么好看，瞬间切换，好想现场看一次百老汇的表演！剧情也很好，从小处着手，面对危难人类的团结一致，真的很令人动容！
没条件去看现场的穷人表示这部音乐剧光是bootleg就已经超好看了，默默希望百老汇/伦敦西区音乐剧放出官摄变成常态，为了不影响档期卖票完全可以延后几年再放出来，那些超珍贵的OBC摄影只存起来真的是太可惜了~
so touching
喬說那時他在芝加哥公車上遇見過William Kunstler，向他表達了敬意，就在七人案審判期間。比照如今…一言難盡。

导演（也是编剧）再一次展示了深厚的台词功底
