set your heart free

The way back at first, I thought it was just like "Prison Break", it was just for "freedom".

Later, I realized that it was to forgive myself.

In this movie, I only think about the male protagonist/ mr old man/ girl/ and the villain with the knife

, the painter/ and the dramatist. I guess it's just for decoration! Mainly, they all have bald heads and similar clothes. I don't get it!

be the protagonist. The first dinner he came to the concentration camp, the old man taught him a lesson: kindness will kill you!

On the eve of escaping: Old man, tell him that kindness will save other people.

This old man is very real, just to survive and become a little cold!

When he found out that someone was following them in the forest, I knew: heroine, here we go! (I got it)

The kindness of the protagonist made him easily deceived by the heroine, but the old man knew that he would not die.

When the old man exposed the girl's lie, he said to her: It's all for survival!

Although, the last girl / painter / dramatist is in the desert!

I'm still very sad, girl! Life, in the harsh nature, is so fragile, like grass, it cannot withstand wind and rain!

When, old man, is about to give up, this is the climax!

The old man, knowing that the boy would not give up on him, wanted to convince him to give up:
he expressed his feelings: living is a kind of resistance and a kind of punishment!
Protagonist: Say you have to forgive yourself. He must go back. Only he can forgive that lover! Otherwise she won't forgive herself! That's what his journey to freedom is all about!

The protagonist, love her deeply. How much understanding has been dissolved in this love. when he was forced to confess. When she was forced to expose him. He said: How the hell did you force her?

I didn't think about myself at all, all I thought about was the lovely person who suffered!

And then there's that bad guy, he's affectionate and steals food for his partner. Respect for the protagonist. Respect for Stalin...it's just that he's too much of a gambler!

This movie: This is the last one I watched with my classmates! I miss those long time sitting around watching the movie "Stars"... "The way back"

our time, no way back ah!

Dedicated to you! I'm too stupid to express the emotion in my heart incisively and vividly!

Pissed me off. I am happy

    I'd rather die on the road than be stuck in jail.

    The first half is more exciting. The only heroine is the little sister in Atonement. Because she played the cute bones of the novels I have read, I paid more attention, but I have not seen any of the movies in which she played the first protagonist.
