Everything in this movie is very beautiful. Especially the picture is so beautiful. In addition, the cruel description of the war is in place. The war broke up lovers, took away relatives and friends, and caused families to endure unimaginable pain. Yin and Yang are separated, life is separated, and human life is so fragile and vulnerable.
Alicia Vikander's acting skills are very superb. From the beginning of the characterization of the characters, to gradually change due to the war, the acting is very natural. Before the first separation from Roland, "tomorrow, how?", a "how" "It's just jerking to tears; Victor asked if there was a flash of heartache in his eyes when he was proposing marriage; the despair waiting for his brother to wake up, the joy after waking up; the empty eyes at the end of the war; almost collapsed after the end Her mental state...all of this was brought about by war. Vikander played out all of this, the impact and change of war on people, and the most powerful thing is her eyes. Her eyes really do. Just like talking, one look can put everything in your heart in front of you.
If there are any shortcomings in this movie, it is that it has not been too clear about its true meaning. It is like telling a very sad story. If the director can add a little theme, such as highlighting the theme of anti-war, this movie The level will be a higher level.
