Like any plot involving recruit training in the United States, there is always a devil instructor who is hysterical and swearing in the recruit training camp. The instructor of this film can be described as the devil to the extreme, and the swear words in his mouth are even more artistic. First of all, he wants to disarm the recruits. He wants to let these stinky boys who might still be drinking Coke, listening to rock and gnawing with their girlfriends yesterday know that they have come to a different world. Next, he wants to give the boys enough frustration, just like the "destructive" melting of steel bars before making weapons, because this is malleable. Therefore, instructors continue to intentionally insult these children in the teaching process, because if a person's self-esteem is lost by the insult, he will be at your mercy and fully accept your ideas. If he has strong self-esteem, he will also show his strength in the way the instructor hopes, and the instructor seems to be in a position to win. Then, is the most important step, which is "brainwashing." The instructor must continue to instill a set of silly asshole theory on people who are in need of spiritual comfort in the boring training camp, so in a space that is not free. , The instructor told them about the theory that they might be brought into the police station, such as "What makes the grass grow?" The soldiers answered "Blood! Blood! Blood!", "How do we make a living?" The soldiers answered "Kill! Kill! Kill!". He asked the soldiers to name the rifle, and if it was a girl’s name, he wanted them to fall in love with the rifle. In this way, when the soldiers really regarded the gun in their hands as their lovers, they fell in love with the killing equipment and they gradually became The killing machine that the instructor hopes to be, the man and the gun, the two killing weapons "gun man is one."
When this movie showed recruit training, it did not show the life between soldiers like many similar movies, there was no ridicule about the boring life among soldiers, and there was no scene where a soldier took out a picture of his girlfriend and talked proudly with others. There isn't even much mutual fighting. There are only a small number of scenes between soldiers, which are also the "business" exchanges of the "clown" coaching a clumsy fat recruit. Kubrick coldly displayed everything about the boot camp. Here, brotherhood is no longer important. The recruits are just lifeless “raw materials”, and the devil instructor is the real protagonist, a master of weapons. , Enough "dedication" eliminated the "human" element of the barracks, and Kubrick also showed us more inhuman elements. Of course, there is a noteworthy exchange between soldiers, which is the scene of the fat recruit being beaten by his comrades. This fat recruit is a noteworthy figure in this part. Obviously he is not a soldier, and the devil instructor is very quick. Finding his "use", he made fat recruits a tool to cultivate hatred and speed up their psychological distortions. Therefore, we saw him being beaten with soap by his comrades, and seeing the "clown" hesitate for a while, but we hated the beating even more. Ironically, the devil instructor finally died unexpectedly in the hands of this fat boy. In the last scene of this new barracks, the fat man sat quietly on the toilet and filled the magazine with a murderous look in his eyes, but he was lost. In order to gain vitality, he killed the devil instructor and then committed suicide. He finally proved that he is still not a perfect murder weapon, a perfect murder weapon should not destroy himself but not the enemy, let alone destroy the weapons of his own camp.
Next, the film enters another part, that is, the real battlefield. These killing weapons that have just left the factory have finally come to the day to test their power. However, when I thought that when I saw a killing, the director did not show us too much blood on the battlefield. He showed more the complicated lives and psychology of the soldiers on the battlefield represented by the "clown". In the boot camp, these soldiers were completely "processed" as tools, so they looked bored, and saw the devil instructors roaring. And on the battlefield, they suddenly became alive. They finally talked to each other, teased each other, talked swearly with each other, and finally showed the vitality of young people. At the same time, they also followed their respective trajectories. "Joker" became a reporter and a recorder of the war, and he and the people involved in the war finally realized the true side of the war. Since bidding farewell to the era of cold weapons, a major feature of the evolution of weapons is that the distance between the murderer and the slain is as far as possible, and it takes a certain mental struggle to let one person slash the head of another person. Yes, and when he can kill his opponent with a single shot from a long distance, his mental pressure is less. Finally, when the disappearance of a life can be turned into the disappearance of a point on the radar with the push of a button, the murderer will basically not have any pressure. Therefore, let the killers as far as possible from the scene of the attack and as far as possible from the blood, so that the "born to
Reality always dissolves lies, and reality always "resets" the distorted concepts that are divorced from reality. Therefore, when the American bombardier dropped an atomic bomb over Japan, he did not feel any guilt because he was killing the "enemy." Unable to bear the weight of the soul, even though they represent the righteous side in this war. And when the "clowns" walked out of the training camp and came to the real battlefield, they also discovered that this is not a world where the grass grows with "blood". The war is far less poetic. It is precisely in the establishment and disintegration of such lies. In the distortion and reset of the mind, Kubrick appeared coldly to complete an anti-war movie masterpiece. He showed us cruelty, but also expressed hope. In the cold narrative, we shudder first, and found a glimmer of light in the confused eyes of the soldiers during the war.
