Compared with its sister film, Iwo Jima is still worse, and the swimming at the end is not bad

The two sides of the battle of Iwo Jima, Dongmu's "Letters from Iwo Jima" seem to be somewhat unacceptable and conflicted in consciousness, but in "Flags of Fathers", he clearly found a more suitable entry point for his locality. A photo involves the absurdity of the war itself, the irony of those in power, and the suspicion of American values. Those grand meanings were dispelled by the dignity of individual lives, and Dongmu made a fresh and heroic life. Although history will pass, the meaning of life will last forever.

Bud Gerber: People on the street corners, they looked at this picture and they took hope. Don't ask me why, I think it's a crappy picture, myself. You can't even see your faces! But it said we can win this war, are winning this war, we just need you to dig a little deeper. They want to give us that money. No, they want to give it to *you*.

Dave Severance: Nobody even noticed that second flag going up. Everybody saw that damn picture and made up their own story about it. But your dad and the others knew what they had done, and what they had not done. All your friends dying, it's hard enough to be called a hero for saving somebody's life. But for putting up a pole?
