Like Letters from Iwo Jima, it's all about the Battle of Iwo Jima

After reading the letter from Iwo Jima, I read the flag of my father, and I realized something very interesting only halfway through. Both films tell the same story, both based on the Battle of Iwo Jima, but from different perspectives; the former is based on the Japanese side, the latter is based on the American side, and the former is based on how the Japanese defended the film. The latter was filmed on how the U.S. military attacked. Even if the angles are different, it can reflect how tragic the battle of Iwo Jima was. I also found similarities in the plots of the two films. The first is that they waited for a large number of U.S. troops to land before opening the two films. The movie has mentioned that after the second Japanese army Zheboshan was breached, the remaining soldiers pulled their grenades to commit suicide. The former is how they committed suicide, and the latter is what they looked like after committing suicide. Disgusting, after pulling the grenade, each Japanese soldier covered his body with his own body. After the explosion, you can imagine how disgusting the scene was. However, when I was shooting this scene, the banner of my father's generation made me even more hungry. In general, the banner of my father's generation was bold in filming. Both are very good movies. The former was shot in flashbacks. Flashbacks and interludes are staggered, but the whole is mainly interlude. worth watching
