Kubrick's third work. Like "Dr. Strangelove", it is also an anti-war film with a dark humorous satire theme.
"I have felt ashamed many times as a human being, and this is one of them." His works always bring unparalleled spiritual baptism and shock to the soul. His lens seems to be able to understand the origin of everything in the world. Thought is far beyond the limitations of the times.
“Patriotism was the last refuge of a scoundrel.”
The story focuses on the German-French war in World War I, which deeply satirizes the so-called generals in the film, who even sacrificed half of the soliders of the 701 regiment for their promotion. Knowing that the mission was impossible, the soldiers insisted on charging; he was calm in the command room, but he had to bombard his own trenches; Anthill failed to win, and he had to call a military court to shoot three scapegoats. The final execution process was very long, making people think that there would be some variables, but the result did not happen.
The lieutenant who went to step on the spot threw a grenade to kill his classmate, but he was a cowardly alcoholic and turned his head and ran away; it was also that he did not call on everyone to rush out after the colonel was shot, and he chose the person who accused him to be the scapegoat. So absurd.
The top general, George, even had time to hold a banquet, and felt that Dax's report on Paul's bombardment of his own people was to replace Paul's commander-in-chief. Do idealists really have no room to live...
At the end of the film, it turned out to be Kushen's wife, the eternal theme: folk songs on the battlefield and home and country nostalgia.
In the end, I still had to execute the order move back to the front. It was really because Jun Mo asked about the matter of Fenghou, and it was a success.
