What impressed me the most in the film was Louis Malle's extremely appropriate and delicate depiction of the inner feelings of ordinary teenagers. In the scope of the world's film industry, I personally think that no one can match it.
There is a passage in the film that resembles a tribute to the great film master Chaplin. All the adults and children laughed in front of Chaplin. Obviously, what the director wants to say here is: "Every person in the world is actually pure by nature."
But we humans are actually such a strange animal. When in an extreme situation, some of them (although it may be Just belonging to a small group) will abandon all the good things in nature, and show the extremely ugly side of nature, especially when facing one's own kind... (such as the group of "Gestapo" that only appeared at the end of the film ").
The director deliberately superimposed the most beautiful things and the most ugly things to show the audience, but in a way that can be called "moisturizing things silently"...
This is actually the biggest of European and Hollywood movies. the difference.
