1. The young whistleblower must be killed:
the reason behind it is to kill the chicken and warn the monkey, not revenge as understood by ordinary people!
This is the logic of reality: in reality, very few people can endure torture, so it is normal to betray after being arrested, but betrayal and informs seriously damages the interests of the party, so we must kill a hundred examples! If you are captured, please hold on until the end to seek more happiness, otherwise even if the enemy does not kill you, your former teammates will kill you.
2. The political enemy who is the younger brother must be killed:
the radical revolutionaries who are uncompromising must die, otherwise more civilians will die tragically in the war with the strong enemy, the British Empire, and as a small country without Big Brother foreign aid, even if it is barely independent They will also be looted by economic sanctions. Is it for the revolutionary ideal of "freedom or death" for freedom, equality and fraternity, or is it for the survival reality of the people of Limin that "death is worse than living"? The nationalists (KMT) and socialists (Communists) have since parted ways to meet each other!
In addition, there are some classic revolutionary episodes:
the leaders of the initial struggle against heroes are not necessarily the most thorough revolutionaries, but the weak scholars who have changed their original hearts and joined us after the baptism of reality are the diehards!
For the local tyrants who are taking advantage of the hegemony side, do they win the team together or confiscate their property regardless of resistance?
The director is indeed a loyal fan of socialism! As a teaching material for young revolutionaries, this film is far superior to similar romantic films! So far, only Nagisa Oshima's "Night and Fog in Japan" can compare with this film.
