    BGM is very good, but it shouldn't be the so-called anti-war reflection. People are just mourning for the compatriots who died in a foreign country. As for the nationals of the invaded countries, I don't see the so-called comfort or reflection. War always hurts both ways. So I thought about it like this and felt that I was too paranoid. If the people in the play were Chinese, maybe I wouldn't ask them to...

    After the war, we should always do something. The dead are gone, can the past really dissipate...

    He is one of the few people in his ethnic group who has relatively the most profound reflection. What this work brings to people is not only the things on the screen, but...

    I don't know if it is adapted from real events, but it looks at the war from another angle. The temples in Myanmar are also quite distinctive, and it can be over after playing a song outside the prisoner of war camp. It's a pity that the director was afraid that everyone would not understand it, so he made up a letter, which is a bit of a dog's...

    7/10. The naturalistic use of light + the sad and moving music and the uninterested bones form a sad and gentle and humane image poem. The set of shots that everyone sang in unison when surrounded by the British army is so beautiful. The composition of our farewell to the piano is superb. There are a few fragments that give people really deep impressions, which can be called shocking. However, the anti-war people in this area are either Japanese or their own consciousness is not high enough. ....

    This is not a war movie, or even an anti-war movie. The retreat of Mizushima is both simple and easy to understand and profoundly meaningful. This kind of bluntness does not make people feel hypocritical, but truly empathizes with him. He can feel the entanglement in his heart. In fact, there is not much thinking about war. Mizushima just looks at the sins of the world as a monk who has no intention of entering the profession. This is more sincere, the story is not big, but the pattern is...

    A warrior's transformation into a Buddha's son makes a vow because of suffering. People always need to know why they came. When you figure it out, you will no longer be confused about the present and the future. You will know where to go when you have done what you need to...

    A thin body beating a great heart

    Half a semester has passed since I went to an elective course in college. I have watched 6 movies in total, including Nihon Kokaku Centenary (documentary), Rashomon, Tokyo Monogatari, Yugetsu Monogatari, Ichikawa Kun Monogatari (documentary) and Today Watch The finished Burmese harp.

    They are all...

    Why is Mizushima reluctant to talk to his teammates? ——The unexplained plot of the film

    This film is really a model of conveying things and expressing aspirations. There are many silent plots in it. Thoughts and feelings are conveyed through things, which are interlinked and naturally exquisite.

    This film is also very ideological. In the end, Mizushima's letter answered the reason why...

The Burmese Harp quotes
