It is said that it is interesting to watch together with "Letter from Iwo Jima". Heroes are always distorted by history and forgotten by people. "Billy Lynn's Halftime Story" is much the same. But I feel that this film is more meaningful~ In the battle of Iwo Jima, the male protagonist had a chance encounter and a few comrades went to the hillside of Iwo Jima to put up flags on the hillside of Iwo Jima in order to excite the military spirit. . But Oolong's is that they planted the second national flag, because a boss collected the first one, and the people who planted the first national flag died in battle. After the government knew about it, it couldn't do anything because the media had already announced it to the people of the whole country. In the end, only the three of them were left to plant the flag. They acted as heroes of the people, using that title to benefit the government as part of the mission. One of them was an Indian who always felt guilty for his actions. His comrades were killed in battle, but he achieved their glory and got drunk all day. The boss dropped him back to the front. Others also completed the performance task of raising the flag and returned to the front line. Later the war ended. The Indians were depressed all day and died of drunkenness on the farmland. Another started to use the glory to start a life of hanging, and later because of peace gradually forgotten, reduced to watching the door. The male protagonist buried the matter until his dying son discovered it and published it.
