The little boy angelo, means messenger of God in Italian. The little boy angelo and the black soldier Hecht survived the war miraculously; 40 years later, Hecht accidentally encountered and killed the Italian traitor, and then was found out by angelo and rescued by chance. It's a miracle. The miracle of Santa Ana is a miracle of being alive and the result of good nature.
There are murderous German Nazis, German soldiers who rescued children, and German officers who did not shoot the male protagonist at the end of the battle in the small town;
there are white American and white American officers who discriminate against black soldiers, and there are also little Italian boys who are rescued. White Americans discriminated against black American soldiers; there was
an Italian guerrilla captain who fought for the country. In order to protect him, the residents of Santa Ana did not betray him and were massacred. There were also traitors
who shot and killed the guerrilla captain. There were no black American soldiers in small Italian towns. Being discriminated against by residents, I feel like a family in a foreign country.
"Black Soldiers, your white commanders regard your life as a waste," broadcast on the German radio van. Why do you dedicate your life to a country that abandons you, a country that takes you as slaves. Think about your sacrifices, just to win two? Waiting for the rights of citizens to return home. Do you have the right to vote there (the United States)?" The
black American soldier said: "There seems to be something abnormal here (compared to the United States). I fall in love with Italy. I am not here. Negro, I am me. These Italians are very pious to God. They will not embarrass a black man. I feel freedom in a foreign country, which I have never felt in the United States. It makes me ashamed."
The Santa Ana massacre was too cruel, but there was also a glorious human side in it. The pastor asked the common people to kneel down, and everyone prayed together: "In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, our Father in heaven, may everyone honor your name, may your kingdom come, and may your will be done on earth, Just as walking in the sky, giving us daily food and pardoning our sins, just as we have spared us the sins of those who offend us, don’t tempt us, save us from our sins, Amen.” When the pastor was shot and killed by the German Nazis, Quietly said, "Lord, forgive them, because they don't know what they are doing." In the face of evil, this is a kind of compassion, kindness, kindness, peace, and feelings of death! Weak civilians have a strong spirit. Those German soldiers were also kind civilians at home, but the war made them so evil. Treating evil people who are different from priests, such as guerrilla captains and black soldiers, take up guns, are not afraid of sacrifice, and fight to death. Is there a better way to stop disputes, stay away from war, and achieve great unity than using violence to control violence and evil to control evil? Alas, it is very pessimistic. The history of mankind is to a large extent the history of mankind’s war, and up to now, internal struggles between people continue, and wars in the world continue.
Hecht encounters a traitor and shoots him quickly. It did have a shocking effect at the beginning of the film, but it also used violence to control violence. This exaggerated violence 40 years later is unacceptable.
The music is good.
After reading it three times, I didn't understand it the first time. At the end of the third time, I was moved by the inside cow.
