Content retelling

This movie tells that Mary loves Jack, Jack loves Sylvia, and Sylvia loves David. At the beginning of World War I, Jack and David both went to apply for pilots, but when they were parting because of the photo, there was a misunderstanding between the two. Later, in the constant getting along with each other, the two also gradually relieved and became good friends. And Mary has always been unrequitedly in love with Jack, and for this reason, she was also enlisted as a transporter, just to get closer to Jack. But one night in Paris, Mary was also expelled to go home. The final war broke out and David disappeared. Jack thought David had sacrificed and wanted revenge. He didn't know that David not only didn't sacrifice, but also stole a German plane and wanted to fly back to the Allied defense line. He met Jack, who was vengeful, and missed a bullet. David was shot down by Jack's Meteor. Jack returned to the ground to recognize David, but he was dying. Later, when Jack packed up David's belongings, he discovered that Sylvia didn't love Jack. Back home, in the old courtyard, and Mary, who had been waiting for him, finally got married.

Experience

In fact, whether a movie can resonate is more related to the mood when watching the movie at that time, which is why the same movie is viewed differently at different times. Regarding this silent film nearly a hundred years ago, perhaps the first silent film I watched, I was surprised that I was not used to it, but I still finished watching it. I don’t catch a cold on the air combat plot, and I don’t catch a cold on Meteor’s Kiss, but the sentence "What happens from now on is all that matters isn't it" touches the soul. The past experience will only increase and cannot be changed-in fact, it can also be changed, which is to do well in the present and the future.
