"Children of Yellowstone"-the graves of our ancestors

I have always avoided watching movies on the theme of "Nanjing Massacre" or "Jews in World War II". I am not vulnerable, but it does not mean that I have to watch horror movies and let myself be immersed in pain.

Because I regarded Huangshi as the Yellowstone National Park in the United States, I mistakenly watched this movie. The war reporter He Ke entered Nanjing during the Holocaust. The Japanese found out that he had taken many photos of the massacre of Chinese people. There is a resistance army...) He Ke was rescued from the Japanese knife and sent to a small place called Huangshi. The shocking first act appeared in the ancestral hall of Huangshi.

The ancestral hall with white walls and blue tiles under the green hills and green water gives people a special sense of beauty, but the inside of the ancestral hall is dilapidated and dark. The interior is covered with dust. The walls are hung with portraits of ancestors. China has always been a respect for the ancestors. Country, but our ancestors did not guard their homes, leaving their children and grandchildren to be slaughtered, their homes were deserted and dilapidated, tragedy happened. Someone should take responsibility. There is no reason to

see a wolf eating a wolf. Bloody rabbit, do you blame the wolf for its cruelty or blame the rabbit for not running fast? The law of nature is only the law of nature. The world is always changing in collision. You will wait for death if you don’t change... The

second scene is the ancestors who lie in a dark room and suck opium. They lie there and suck opium, their eyes are like dead people. ..

This is still the American perspective. If you watch Zhang Yimou's "Raise the Red Lantern", you will be overwhelmed by your ancestors.

If staying in one place is painful, what will you do? No way, bear it. The Japanese army was about to hit Huangshi and stayed to die. He Ke led the children to start a long migration across Lanzhou to a place without fireworks. Although it was cold and dry, at least they still had freedom.
