The whole movie is very depressing, maybe it’s the director’s arrangement to let Rambo suffer from all kinds of abuses that are close to hell. To impact the audience's senses, it conveys the character of a tough guy; of course, Stallone's vicissitudes-filled appearance and explosive figure play this role very well. However, when I watched it this time, what I thought most was the tragedy of two types of people.
One class of people is the Rambo itself. When talking to the colonel at the end of the film, Rambo has a line similar to an inner monologue: "What is civilian life to me. At least we have honor on the battlefield. Everyone takes care of each other, and back here there is nothing. "In Vietnam, I can drive a gunboat and drive a tank. I am responsible for millions of equipment, but here I can't even find a job to park." Writing this, I actually feel a kind of depression that I can't write anymore, and my chest feels as if Being blocked... Yes, the hardest thing in this world is not not being able to stand out, but being brilliant and unrestrained, but in the end you have to get used to the life of an ordinary person; even if that glory is only limited to a certain circle, the circle has passed , everything is fleeting, but how can the protagonist of the year get rid of this obsession with the past casually?
Some time ago, I read a book "Rabbit, Run! ", the hero of the book Harry High School is a star player of the school team. He has written countless records in the local basketball history and is like a momentary figure. After graduation, he married a woman with a strange personality, drinking and smoking prematurely for various reasons. , and then selling shaving knives in the mall. He is full of narcissistic fantasies and is extremely dissatisfied with reality. He always fantasizes about escaping from this humble reality and living a messy life. Of course, Rambo did not show a fascination with his past glory, but his character was deeply imbued by the unforgettable experience of the Vietnam War. He could not adapt to this American society more than 10,000 kilometers away from Vietnam. The rules of this society are not Formulated with fists and sharp knives, it's more complicated...
Another type of person is the sheriff. His lines are also righteous words: "It's a quiet town, in fact, it's boring, but we like it. I'm getting paid to keep it that way." In life, there are always a handful of people who Create an organization or hold a certain position, and then there is a kind of self-awareness of the protector, they regard it as a ban, and treat outsiders with skepticism even if it is unintentionally offended. They have the so-called integrity of "better for jade than for tiles". They think that in this world, they are gods, leaders, and prophets. As the protected object goes to destruction...
Isn't contemporary history a vivid case, the whole country is crazy; in reality, those various "chiefs", they are the protectors and designers in their world, they are crazy, It will perish with the protected object. Many times, you don't have so many responsibilities, do what you should do, be a kind person, that's enough!
Two types of people, two tragedies! Tragedy happens all the time!
