The style of this film is very unique, like a fairy tale picture book, but it contains a philosophy of life everywhere, and it is also like the first long narrative historical poem suitable for chanting and admiring. The narrative style of the film contains real and deep sadness in the elegance and humor. The joy and pain of life are intertwined, and the light and shadow of human nature are naturally intertwined in the story. It naturally shows melancholy and sorrow, and also demonstrates the precious qualities of human nature. , There is no fan of crying and crying, the rhythm is as smooth as a poetic recitation, and it is like flipping through a picture book page by page, indulging in the beautiful story, not saying all the words, but being able to understand it! I like this narrative style very much. I didn't say much about it, but just brought out a character worthy of appreciation! After reading the story, I felt melancholy and sighed, as well as joy and warmth.
Just like when we read history, the life in the past under the background of war, in fact, people's real life is sad, cruel, riotous, absurd, helpless.... However, even in the darkest pain, what should we hold on? In order to embrace the spirit of true love and hope, gentlemen and warriors. I will not sigh with sorrow and say, "Today is not as good as it used to be, and the spirit of a civilized gentleman no longer exists." I have always understood that this is the best time and the worst time! I still have persistence in goodness, true pursuit, and love for beauty in my heart, which give me the power to transcend suffering.
