A good medicine for postwar trauma
The employment problem of soldiers after the war has always been a reality that all countries are concerned about and cannot escape. Not only war, when you do anything there will be an end to that day; as the saying goes: "There is no such thing as a feast in the world". When we are in pain, we hope that this matter will end quickly; when we are happy, we do not know how to cherish it, and it is only after it is over that we realize how unforgettable the past time is. The three protagonists in...

The film won seven awards including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor at the 19th Academy Awards. The film starts with three veterans, deeply digging into the various problems encountered by American soldiers returning home from the army after the end of World War II. The incomprehension of the family, the incompatibility of the society, and the betrayal of the wife reflected the real current situation of American society at that time. This is a sad and hopeful film. It was what the...

After World War II, the three soldiers flew home. They talked about their lives before the war. The middle-aged Al has been married for 20 years, the young Fred joined the army shortly after his marriage, and the young Homo has a girlfriend, etc. at home.
Al said, "The thing that scares me the most is that everybody wants me back to normal." That quote reminds me of Paul from All Quiet on the Western Front when he comes home and sees something different from the battlefield. In another...

The Golden Age - Be an Upright American
In the "Golden Age" when American society was prosperous just after the end of World War II, and in the "Golden Age" when the soldiers who participated in the war were just demobilized and their lives, three soldiers with different backgrounds, identities and personalities were demobilized and returned to their hometowns. different situations. Some of them are disabled, some encounter adversity, and some encounter dissatisfaction. But no matter what, they can handle themselves correctly,...

Without both hands, the girl would marry the hook sailor without disdain; Fred's charm made Al's daughter fascinated; Al's business level and negotiating ability did not seem to be very good, His boss promoted him to be vice president. So many harmonious scenes make me seem to be in the news network, how can the reality be so beautiful? The real situation should be that the sailor’s girlfriend abandoned him early. The sailor was addicted to alcohol and had serious suicidal tendencies; Fred was...

A detail worthy of special attention: the brave and promising young Captain during the war could only earn a meager salary to make ends meet after the war, while the middle-aged Soldier during the war was pulled up by bankers who aimed at business opportunities after the war to make a living. Decent and rich, the battlefield and the market are not the same logic after all, and the glory of war also appears to be nothing. The trauma of the Great Depression was finally erased dramatically by...

One star for Harold Russell, one of two amateur actors to win an Oscar in the acting category. But the idea of this film is really too main...

Women play the role of "women" (perfect to burst, just "perfect" to satisfy male machismo) to save ("castrated", war-torn, acclimatized) men. Like the tough Millie and the unintentionally funny Al, a high-society couple, but how could they have such a silly daughter who fell in love with the unreliable...

Fred Derry: You know what it'll be, don't you, Peggy? It may take us years to get anywhere. We'll have no money, no decent place to live. We'll have to work, get kicked around...
[Peggy, not caring one way or the other about these things, kisses him]
Peggy Stephenson: I've made up my mind.
Al Stephenson: Good girl.
Milly Stephenson: To do what?
Peggy Stephenson: I'm going to break that marriage up! I can't stand it seeing Fred tied to a woman he doesn't love and who doesn't love him. Oh, it's horrible for him. It's humiliating and it's killing his spirit. Somebody's got to help him.
Marie Derry: Say, who is this Peggy Stephenson?
Fred Derry: She's a girl.
Marie Derry: I didn't think she was a kangaroo!
