That's right, the main line of this movie as far as I understand it is the word "pain".
It was painful for Louis, who did not understand his own value and could not find his faith when he was a child, because his life was drowsy and aimless at that time;
Louis who participated in the German Olympic Games was painful because the burden of history was on him;
As a member of the bomber, Louis is painful, because he has to witness the departure of his comrades in every mission;
Louis, who is drifting in the sea, is painful, because he has to face hunger, thirst, and disease at the same time. The weakening of his comrades;
the pain of Louis entering the prisoner of war camp, because in the day-to-day torment, the hope of freedom also tormented him;
the family of Louis suffered because they suffered under false news. The pain that he deserves to be endured;
Louis, who was "invited" by the Japanese conspirators, is painful because he has to face the dilemma of favoritism and return to hell;
in the face of Japan's weakening war situation, Louis is painful because he is overjoyed Behind him, he may face the fate of being slaughtered;
it is painful to see Louis who is "birdman" again, because this madman has crazy prejudice against him and his uncontrollable ferocity;
Louis who broke his right foot is painful Yes, because those feet were his beliefs and his former glory;
it was painful to face the "Birdman" Watanabe who looked straight at Louis and roared, because compared to the frail American in front of him, he was so The humility and insignificance;
......
This kind of pain is too much, and it will bring tears to the eyes again if you want to count it carefully.
But the center of the film is not pain, but the words Louis's brother gave him: "A moment of pain is worth a lifetime of glory."
What is pain to a man of glory? Is it physical pain? Is it the loss of hope of freedom? Or farewell to a loved one? Louis told me, none of them, it was a life of walking dead after losing faith. Physical pain is only temporary, it disappears with the formation of scars, and spiritual pain is indeed eternal. Once the crack is broken, it will be a lifelong dull pain, and the lack of our body will eventually be attached to our hearts. A wound, the long pain is always the heart, the short pain is often the body.
Louis has a choice, whether to join the army or not, to leak military information, to read a manuscript and lie, to look directly at Watanabe, to be beaten or to watch his comrades get killed. In this matter, in the matter of the victory and survival of the motherland, he can choose, and Louis, who has seen through these choices, understands that it is his brother's phrase "a moment of pain is worth a lifetime of glory" that supports his choice. Three years may be a long time, but compared to a lifetime, it is really insignificant. Between short-term pain and a lifetime of torture, Louis chose his correct answer.
If you want to find a partner for "pain", then another center of the film is "tolerance", and this is what Louis believes in. In fact, the beginning of the film told me that this is a story about tolerance :
"God sent his son Jesus down to the mortal world, not for him to sow discord, not to start a war against the sins of mankind, but to choose to forgive the sins of mankind."
And in the end, Louis did it, but Watanabe was ashamed and had no luck. .
This is the story of a fighter who overcomes pain and chooses tolerance. He expresses all of this with his actions. It’s not that those who are silent don’t know how to speak. The roar on the side, they are more willing to speak with actions, telling people that he has not given up, and it is true.
Everyone who loves running should watch this movie, it tells you what running can bring to a person, and you should keep running; everyone who doesn't love running should also watch this movie, even if you watch You still feel unloved after finishing, but what you should understand is: really always speak with actions, the mouth is just a tool for breathing.
With this clear sky, I pay tribute to Monsieur Luis Zamperini.
