      There will always be someone who is responsible or so selfless

      The main body expounds this real event in the form of real-life and pseudo-animation, interspersed with people’s thoughts and real-person interviews as background sound during the narration. The real event itself carried too much grief. The expression of people's true emotions and the way the movie described it at that time truly replayed the entire shooting incident, like a documentary, and recorded it truly. The plot of the movie is not rendered in any way, but various scenes are edited...

      No news from Auschwitz

      News will eventually become a thing of the past. No matter how appalling, how sinful, and how irritating, it will eventually pass. It will pass until people’s memories of this matter become vague, until the next generation of people don’t remember these things happened, and until a long time later, someone will say, "It seems that this happened." "But I can't remember. But this kind of thing did happen. It did have an indelible impact on the remaining lives of some people. In the second half...

      No. 3137 - When the pregnant woman and the helper appeared in real life, when they knew that they were still alive in reality, I was suddenly moved. The animation is abstract and artificial, the story is real and crazy, and the reality is expressed through abstract animation, which gives people a special sense of absurdity, and feels the polygonal prism of the human world, emptiness, coldness, love, and bravery. Personally, I think it looks better than the live-action movie "The Elephant" that...

    Evaluation action

    On August 1, 1966, a shooting occurred at the University of Texas System . The murderer shot on the tower, killing 16 people. The film "Tower" officially records this event. It is not a documentary genre that we are familiar with everyday. The director Keith Maitland combined real archives and witness testimony to create a vivid horror effect in the form of animation. However, the value of the film also comes from the thinking it puts...

    Movie quotes

    • John Fox: I remember looking at the Tower, of course, a lot. And from the Main Mall you can see there's a biblical line from the Bible. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." I've thought about it. One of the truths I learned... Is that there are monsters that walk among us. There are people out there that think unthinkable thoughts and then do unthinkable things.

    • Walter Cronkite: The horror of these, the sick among us, must be found in the horror of our hyper-civilization. A strange pandering to violence, a disrespect for life, fostered in part by governments which, in pursuit of the doctrine of self-defense, teach their youth to kill and to maim. A society in which the most popular newspaper cartoon strips, television programs, and movies are those that can invent new means of perpetrating bodily harm. A people who somehow can remain silent while their own civilization seems to crumble under the force of the caveman's philosophy - that might makes right. It seems likely that Charles Joseph Whitman's crime was society's crime.
