03 No War on the Western Front
This movie is very long, but I don't find it boring at all. The plot is very tight and tense, and the dialogue between the characters is quite meaningful. You should devote yourself to the movie when you watch the movie, otherwise you will miss a lot. Meaningful and fleeting little details, the details of this movie are really superb, the acting skills of the actors are obvious to all, and one look can convey thousands of thoughts. There are several such movies or TV series in our country every year. For the film, I don’t have to find foreign film resources so hard. There are indeed many pirated resources in Baofeng, but the quality of the picture is good, the baby has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and 480p hurts the eyes. . Accidentally started ranting. .
I want to talk about this movie bit by bit. First of all, the director really spent half his life making it. It is worth watching it carefully. The war was very real and shocking. It was possible to shoot it in that era. The film with such amazing effect is enough to see the director's skill. The shock of the many scenes in this film makes me feel that his speech really deserves its name. I love it so I have to compliment it.
First of all, the movie opens with a group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys in class. Their professors are encouraging everyone to go to the battlefield and gain glory. Originally, my temperament was that this old professor would not have a backache when he stood up and talked, but out of disapproval of the film I try to understand the old professor, maybe he really thinks that dying for the country is a sweet and great thing in his heart, if he is young, maybe he will go to the battlefield, but in fact, I still want to throw him Go to the battlefield and let him feel the terrible war. Poetry may be exciting to read, but only when you really go and experience it can you understand the true meaning of life. But the words they preach are really moving. When I was a child, I watched special forces propaganda on TV and wanted to become a special forces soldier. Sure enough, I was a stupid human being.
Under the encouragement of the old professor, a group of children in the school gave up their studies and a good life, and decided to go to the battlefield for the sake of the country. It's really touching, the young mood, even if it is naive, is very great, and the sincere heart of dedicating oneself to the motherland is moving. Forgive me for being blind and having a bad memory. I can't remember their faces and names, but it doesn't matter. In my heart, each of them is brilliant.
The war is cruel and real at the same time. It shows the complete human nature, that is, human nature. Human nature is complex. The postman who became an officer showed off his strength and bullied his former friends, indulged in false glory, and was sent to the battlefield. Died, and then rushed to the front line under the command of the superior and was killed in the next second. The impermanence of life is unpredictable. Kate, who is very good at finding food, a kind veteran, his heart is full of love, he is willing to help recruits quickly learn the skills to survive in the war, he is a lovely guide, the male protagonist paul) I don't know how to spell it wrong No, I became a good friend with him, the hero trusts him, he is a loyal friend, I thought about a possibility, if the hero didn't go to him in the end, he would not die, but I know The war is cruel, the chances of him surviving are too small and too small, but I like him so much, he has a fresh humanity, and the resilience of life, I think there are more such people than our lives. hope.
Rumble has never mentioned our protagonist. There are too many dialogues and scenes in this film that are impressive. Every scene has been repeatedly sculpted, and we are presented with a great and mature work. Thanks to the director. In fact, I don't think the male protagonist has a lot of scenes. The protagonists are all the people who appeared in this war. From the dialogue of the film, we can see the director's anti-war sentiment. Why is there a war? What is the war for? Soldiers, teachers, bureaucrats in the rear, officers... There are various discussions about war, but every word between the lines no longer expresses the director's anti-war sentiment, and the gentlemen who pretend to be worried about the country and the people in the back leisurely, Politicians, kings, are all for the interest of the soldiers to go to war to die, for the country? ? Ha ha. The admirable wars in this world have always had great goals. For example, for the rise and independence of my Chinese nation, I love my party at this time.
Many details of the movie are worth scrutinizing. At the beginning of the war, people kept dying, going crazy, being bombed, and being shot. Everything came unexpectedly, and the people watching were very worried. The plot of the comrade's boots is very moving. In fact, every soldier is worth talking about, alive, lovely, and worthy of respect.
I'm finally going to talk about the male protagonist. The male protagonist is a good boy who is sentimental and emotional, no doubt about it. He was willing to stay to comfort his sick comrades, and he was even willing to help the enemy. Full of kind humanity, the original paul was such a lovely and painful big boy. Many of the male protagonists' lines in the movie are very good. When I watch the movie, I feel that the screenshots are not enough. I am willing to listen and understand every sentence.
However, when it comes to the anti-war point again, the war has changed the mind. When the male protagonist's mother asked if the male protagonist was really back, I felt bad in my heart. The original male protagonist is dead, and the male protagonist who has experienced the war will be forever missing. If the war ends, he will not be able to survive in the normal world. The war has destroyed beautiful things, and the male protagonist finally died for the butterfly. This plot is very good, the butterfly symbolizes the good childhood of the male protagonist. Or it symbolizes all the good things in this world. He has a very wonderful or wonderful connotation. The male protagonist died for the butterfly, and died for the good things. I think there is a double meaning here. On the one hand, everyone fights and prays for a peaceful life. This is part of a good life. on the other hand. We are willing to die for all beautiful things, symbolizing the determination of human beings to die in pursuit of beauty or lofty ideals, and finally returning to the anti-war aspect, the butterfly symbolizes hope, the butterfly will always exist, we, the nation, Or nations, or as big as human beings, we will never perish because there is hope in this world.

All Quiet on the Western Front quotes

  • Hair-peak soldier: And manufacturers. They get rich.

    [murmurs of agreement]

    Albert Kropp: I think it's more a kind of fever. Nobody wants it in particular, and then all at once, there it is. We didn't want it. The English didn't want it. And here we are fighting.

  • Albert Kropp: Ah, the French certainly deserve to be punished for starting this war.

    Detering: Everybody says it's somebody else.

    Tjaden: Well. how do they start a war?

    Albert Kropp: Well, one country offends another.

    Tjaden: How could one country offend another?

    Tjaden: You mean there's a mountain over in Germany gets mad at a field over in France?

    [Everyone laughs]

    Albert Kropp: Well, stupid, one people offends another.

    Tjaden: Oh, well, if that's it, I shouldn't be here at all. I don't feel offended.

    Katczinsky: It don't apply to tramps like you.

    Tjaden: Good. Then I could be goin' home right away.

    Paul Bäumer: Ah, you just try it.

    Katczinsky: Yeah. You wanna get shot?

    Tjaden: The kaiser and me...

    [the others laugh]

    Tjaden: Me and the kaiser felt just alike about this war. We didn't either of us want any war, so I'm going home. He's there already.

    Hair-peak soldier: Somebody must have wanted it. Maybe it was the English. No, I don't want to shoot any Englishman. I never saw one 'til I came up here. And I suppose most of them never saw a German 'til *they* came up here. No, I'm sure *they* weren't asked about it.

    Paul Bäumer: No.

    Detering: Well, it must be doing somebody some good.

    Detering: Not me and the kaiser.

    Hair-peak soldier: I think maybe the kaiser wanted a war.

    Tjaden: You leave us out of this!

    Katczinsky: I don't see that. The kaiser's *got* everything he needs.

    Hair-peak soldier: Well, he never had a war before. Every full-grown emperor needs one war to make him famous. Why, that's history.

    Paul Bäumer: Yeah, generals, too. They need war.
