A touching socialist film.
It reflects the ruthless destruction of monopoly capitalists on small people. Although the male protagonist struggles to resist, one's power is limited. In the face of powerful monopoly capitalism, such individuals will eventually be swallowed. The film reveals that in a capitalist society, there is no pure love, and the relationship between the male lead and the female lead will eventually be money in the eyes of the female lead, so the male lead is full of true feelings but cannot be satisfied. At the end, when the male protagonist is struggling to fight against the evil capitalist forces, other villagers are putting out the fire in the church, unaware of the suffering of the male protagonist, revealing the indifference and alienation of the relationship between people in capitalist society. The fire in the church symbolizes religion. Hypocrisy and fragility, so socialism believes in atheism. The fire in the church was extinguished, and what remained was the wreckage, but people still cheered, proving the superficiality of people in capitalist society. The male protagonist in the distance died alone in the snow, but the female protagonist paralyzed herself in the cannabis bar, revealing the emptiness of people in capitalist society, can only paralyze themselves by drugs, and the ignorance of the male protagonist’s struggle reveals the relationship between people and people. Indifferent relationships between people. The male protagonist fought guerrilla warfare like the Eighth Route Army, and used a sneak attack to kill two bounty hunters. Unfortunately, he was outnumbered, and he was still seriously injured. He killed the last bounty hunter by pretending to be dead, but the ignorant villagers are celebrating that they saved the nihilistic religion, ignorant of the male protagonist's injury, showing the ruthlessness of the capitalist society and the disappearance of the people's conscience. Words such as chinaman and chink appear many times in the film, showing the capitalist society's contempt for socialism and the ignorance of capitalism.
The fate of the male protagonist shows that the outcome of small and medium-sized people in capitalist society is destined to be tragic. Capitalist society will eventually perish, and the banner of socialism will fly forever.
