Kitsch and Compassion

The film is very commercial. Beautiful women, handsome guys, music, conspiracy, erotica, and the ending where the bad guys are punished, all of which have invisibly diluted the ugliness of war and the ugliness of human nature, making the bloody and cruel history into a movie with a strong appreciation. Although I, as an audience, will also have ups and downs with the protagonist's experience, I will be saddened to see other people's relatives being slaughtered in front of my eyes, I will be angry when I see bad people who betray their friends and conscience for the sake of profit, and those who win the victory will use the same Treating so-called traitors in a twisted and ugly way makes me tremble with anger, and it's all just a movie sitting in front of my computer with a pillow comfortably diluted with history. War is far more terrifying than seeing and hearing, and the ugliness of human nature is more terrifying than war.
(If you don’t use the power of God and don’t give yourself completely to the perfect, true, and almighty God, how can tiny humans accomplish self-redemption? Those selfishness, greed, Evil, proud...)
Out of curiosity, I bought and watched the so-called top ten banned films. Maybe they are more real. They unabashedly film the ugliest and darkest part of human nature. It is cold and cruel. It does not consider the audience. Making such a film is similar to the "victims" and "winners" in "Black Book". It's as indistinguishable as the twisted pride pleasure they get by throwing shit on Ellis.
So, I highly recommend this good-looking movie that is commercialized and a little kitsch. I saw the deep compassion behind it. History does not need to be restored, it only needs to be forgiven and cherished.
"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away, and all things have become new."

PS: I started a new job today, and my colleagues are very good. The beauty of human nature is so precious.
Pray and good night.

    Lust and Caution count as a P...//The Black Book is a story about Jews during World War II, which brought me far deeper thinking than Schindler's list. Its views on war are a bit similar to the arrival of the devils. What did the war bring to the people? Is victory really worth celebrating? How to make the people live a better life after the war, instead of the country advancing and the people retreating, is actually far more important than the war itself. The concept of victory and defeat is narrow, and it is even more ridiculous to define a group with a certain concept. I saw someone on the Internet that day jokingly said: Japan has become a country dedicated to patriotism in our country. Coupled with the two popular articles "How Many People Died in the Nanjing Massacre" and "The Story of the Qing Dynasty" that have been circulating on the Internet recently, I used to think that it didn't matter whether I loved a party or not, the country still needs to love, but now I even Doubt about this.

    I just want to recommend everyone to watch the episode where the protagonist sings in a red dress and red flowers.
