Captain Nemo

Compared with today's film, this science fiction film shot in 1954 is obviously far behind in special effects. However, the connotation of this film is very attractive to me, especially the role of Captain Nemo. He had a painful experience, was forced into hard labor, and his wife and children were tortured to death. Hatred and revenge occupied his mind, and he hit and sank ships on the ocean again and again. The sinking of the ship caused the sacrifice of a large number of crew members, which made him bear the charge. But in his conversations with the professor, we discovered that the underlying reason he did this was that the ships carried military materials, which were used for war. Captain Nemo collided the ship to stop the war and avoid more deaths.
Captain Nemo is a leader. Regardless of whether the submarine hits the rocks, the big squid attack, the base is surrounded and other crises, or to deal with Lan's troubles, he is extremely calm, commanding decisively, and getting rid of the crisis time and time again. He understands the operation of submarines, how to fight the big squid, and his wit is beyond everyone.
His understanding of human nature is more realistic. Lan saved his life, but he was not as grateful as the professor. As he said, Lan will also kill him in the future. Captain Nemo and the professor represent two kinds of people. The former is a practitioner and the latter is a thinker. On the road to ideals, thinkers are like flying on an airplane, and they can fly thousands of miles away, romantic and beautiful. However, practitioners have to move forward step by step. Numerous resistances and risks on the road may be sacrificed on the road at any time.
What Captain Nemo did was actually fighting against the ugliness of human nature. As a result, he sacrificed. This is what he has foreseen. The only thing that comforts him is that he believes that there will be a ray of light across the sky in the future.
In fact, compared to the kind of movies with particularly good special effects, I prefer this kind of movies with good connotation and dialogue. They don't give you excessive sensory stimulation, but instead make your mind more fulfilled.
