"Fearless Admiral Kolchak" is a work that shocked me quite a bit. The name Erchak, in my previous impression, was a brutal counter-revolutionary leader, and the White Army, in my imagination, was a sly and brutal bandit. And Kolchak in the movie, handsome, courageous and strategic, is simply a representative of an outstanding soldier! As for the Bai Jun, his military appearance is neat and disciplined, which is completely different from the movies I have seen before!
However, what moved me most was the sentence mentioned earlier: "God did not divide us into different colors." History is written by victors, the so-called winners and losers. The stance of "The Fearless Admiral Kolchak" seems to be relatively neutral. The image of the White Army in the film is tall and mighty, and it does not degrade the image of the Red Army. However, the film is aimed at the sailors who took advantage of the fire and the low-level soldiers who took advantage of the situation. , Is also strongly criticized.
What kind of person is Kolchak? After watching the film, I was a bit at a loss for a while. Is he the counter-revolutionary in the history textbook? ——It is true that he opposes Soviet Russia, but it's hard to tell. Perhaps, he is a patriot, he loves Russia, but not Soviet Russia. But he was loyal to Tsarist Russia. When the revolution came, he had to flee. Perhaps he knew that at his level, if he stayed in Russia, he would definitely be shot. He felt that he was going to save Russia, so he organized an army to fight back. He also knew that the demise of Tsarist Russia was inevitable, but he still had to act according to his beliefs. His fate is also in line with Aristotle's definition of tragedy: the tragic conflict between the inevitable requirement of history and the practically impossible realization of this requirement.
He is such a patriot, a tragic figure.
