For the Chinese audience, the most intimate part of the film is the chorus of the Internationale, right? At least for the audience before 70, the puzzling "Enjoy Nashner" was so familiar as a child.
There was a time when some people believed that "workers have no motherland", "the proletariat of the world is united", "world revolution", when Franco reactionaries launched a military coup to overthrow the democratically elected Spanish socialist government, so Volunteers from all over the world went to Barcelona, the sacred place of revolution.
When I saw the militiamen from various European countries shouting revolutionary slogans and singing the Internationale, I suddenly felt that the "Enjoy Nashner", who had no idea when I was young, really existed. Maybe from today's perspective. Absurd, but also very "beautiful", there were so many idealists.
However, ideals often bring people disappointment. The guillotine after the French Revolution; the suppression of counter-revolutionaries after the October Revolution; a series of movements and ten years of catastrophe after liberation; the chaos after the Color Revolution, but the beautiful ideal flowers did not bear. Sweet fruit.
The Basilica of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, which was only half completed, was also worn out at that time. Gaudí’s design drawings and models were burned down, so now it can only be built according to the opinions of the Japanese who donated the most.
The reactionary Franco, despite the dictatorship, saved Spain from World War II and finally returned to the king. The country has long-term peace and stability. Although the economic development is average, at least the people are very happy.
When Zhou Gong was afraid of rumors when Wang Mang was courteous and corporal, if he died at that time, who knows the loyalty and traitor since ancient times?
