Cuckoo of "The Female Sniper", please tell me
how many songs I have not finished.
Should I live in the city, or in the country
, lying like a stone, or like a star Shining
- "Кукушка (Cuckoo)" from the episode "The Female Sniper"
Lyudmila Mikhaillovna Pavlyuchenko, a Soviet female sniper, a famous war hero during World War II. She killed a total of 309 enemies and was the only woman among 25 famous snipers who shot more than 300 people. The results also included 36 enemy snipers. The Germans are frightened and hated, and the Americans call it "Lady of Death". When the war situation was dangerous, Stalin personally ordered the wounded her to evacuate by submarine. Immediately afterwards, Pavlyuchenko visited the United States and became the first Soviet citizen to be received by President Roosevelt.
The sniper rifle used by Pavlyuchenko was converted from a Simonov semi-automatic rifle (SVT). The optical sight installed on the gun can only be magnified by 4 times, so the real effective sniper distance is only 600 meters. Considering By the time the Germans used special sniper rifles, her achievements were even more astonishing.
This year, she was only 25 years old, but she was already a legend. After recovering from the injury, she kept thinking about picking up the gun and going to the battlefield again, but she failed to do so. She has been regarded by the Soviet Union as a symbol, and went to the United States to publicize the courage and achievements of the Soviet military and civilians in the war of resistance. She said to American women: "You treat me as the protagonist of anecdotes, but in the Soviet Union, my motherland only sees me as a citizen and a soldier."
The "Female Sniper", which was released in April this year, is a collaboration between Russia and Ukraine. The main theme film shot is based on Pavlyuchenko's life. Although the main theme is well-made, the tone is exquisite. What is even more remarkable is that it does not praise war and heroes, but criticizes autocracy. It tells about a soldier Pavlyuchenko, and more about a woman Pavlyuchenko.
There is no tense and exciting sniper duel in "Bold on the City", the film depicts more of Pavlyuchenko's emotions and soul. Some people say that war changes women, turning weak women into terrifying killing machines. Others say that war is to survive, to live to the death. I said, this is just the life destined for Pavlyuchenko, but the background is the tragic war.
Since childhood, the boyish Pavlyuchenko didn't like dolls. She liked to use slingshots to shoot birds with boys, which was more accurate than boys. She is talented in shooting. She has joined a shooting club and has acquired the skill of shooting a hundred steps through Yang. No one forced her to go to the battlefield, and even if she wanted to go, she just expected her to be a field nurse or logistician. The film does not clearly explain a woman's strong motive for fighting, and I have not found relevant information, but one thing is certain, that is, she has a sense of responsibility for defending the motherland based on her own skills. At that time, the Soviet Union was dictatorial, and the state machine had already rendered killing the enemy on the battlefield a great honor. Pavlyuchenko said firmly and calmly: "I did not kill people, but fascists", which is more proof of this.
Men who drink know that never fight with a woman, she will knock you unconscious. In the field that we men are proud of, if women make up their minds to be involved, their careful thought and abundant sensibility will produce an incomparably paranoid and never-shrinking energy.
I think if Pavlyuchenko was born in peaceful times, she should be a beautiful shooting Olympic champion.
Times determine the fate of individuals, especially extraordinary individuals, and no matter how extraordinary, in the end, it is just an irrelevant screw. Pavlyuchenko could not change the situation, and the Soviet Union was defeated in the battle of Sevastopol. It was winter that saved the Soviet Union. In the confrontation between German fascism and Soviet dictatorship, in the coercion of the grand historical torrent, the people are the eternal victims. Those soldiers who died on the battlefield were not German or Soviet. They also carried pictures of their relatives on their bodies. Behind them, someone is also waiting.
Love in the war years is thrilling and scary. Love is fiery, but trembling, every day, I don't know if I can see you again in the next second. Pavlyuchenko's love cannot escape the same. The thirst for love is far more than the willingness to kill the enemy. But he can only face the parting of death and continue to "live" in grief.
In the film, the last sentence of Pavlyuchenko's visit to the White House was: "I am 25 years old and I shot 309 fascist invaders. Men, how long do you want to hide behind my back?" She wore a military uniform and always Didn't mention that he was actually just a woman. But this sentence comes from the heart, how meaningful it is. Men, instead of continuing to hunt for a female sniper, it is better to contribute to this anti-fascist war. Men, I'm just a woman, the war needs me to defend the motherland, and you have been hiding behind me, discussing me, judging me, are you embarrassed?
"Pain is so persistent, like a snail moving patiently; pleasure is so brief, like a rabbit's tail across the autumn grassland." This is Pavlyuchenko's epitaph. She only lived to be 58 years old and died in peacetime. In the shadow of murder and loss of love, who wants to live too long? At least, not dying like a soldier is already a fulfillment for a woman.
