The result of not being able to read it in one breath is that it becomes more and more sleepy, and I finally finished it in three days. Personally, I only want to give three stars, not my favorite, but I must give four stars for the far-reaching intentions.
What impressed me most was the whistle - for he's a jolly good fellow - which appeared twice, the first was very burning, and the second was on the day the bridge was completed.
There is also the portrayal of human nature through contradictions. The first group is the contradiction between Japanese officers and British officers, which, in the film's lines, is the contradiction between barbarism and civilization. At first, the Japanese army was dismissive of the "Versailles Treaty", but coercion and inducement were unable to win against the British army, which regarded principle above life, and finally gave in. The report given by the British army is to be a good soldier, and to do their job well is to build a bridge. Disagree with some of the views that this is a mutiny, this is not a mutiny, this is to hope that every soldier has something to do, and looking back on this time a long time later, it is not that I was a prisoner of war in the Japanese army, but I participated in the construction of this bridge, I hope What was left of this time was pride, not humiliation. So when a British officer discovered something was wrong with the bridge, his first reaction was to protect him and his soldiers. The second group is the comparison of British and American officers. Stolen officer status, desperate to escape from the camp, this American who talks about the enjoyment of love emphasizes everyone, alone. In his opinion, dying like a gentleman, or dying like a hero, is not as good as living like a human being.
There are many points worth pondering, including the way of shooting night with filters, and the cost of blowing up a bridge, which is worth four stars.
