hold fast

Watching this movie, you will feel that it is simply funny. You have to use letters to mobilize the soldiers. The enemy has hit the door of your house, and the day lily has been cold. When I saw dozens of German soldiers in a battle, the Norwegians said there were too many people, but they couldn't fight. There was no thrilling feeling of war at all. It was at best a local guerrilla war. But Norway is only a small country. Although the persistence of a small country may seem to be suffocating, people have been striving for neutrality after all and don't want to fight! Minister Koch said: "Just as Hitler said,'When a nation surrenders to foreign aggression is not worthy of existence', we reject this kind of submissiveness." It is not easy. It is brave to insist on knowing that it will be defeated. The king fled in the forest, like a bereaved dog. At this time, it reminded me of China’s lack of air supremacy during World War II. Was it also this miserable situation?

In fact, what impressed me the most was the king's adherence to the constitutional monarchy and his non-interference in politics. The comparison with his son was also a very important part. Although the king’s choice in the ending subtitles interfered with politics, it was my own choice for the sake of freedom, democracy, and politics in Norway, including the king’s speech. My bottom line is, of course, if the parliament chooses to avoid a large number of young Norwegians Compromise, he can also understand, it shows that they really treat "power to the parliament" as a serious principle.

The reason why Norway is not like Denmark is probably because of Quisling. If he does not jump out, the king will still be willing to compromise.

The German ambassador is also very sad, worried for him across the screen, what is the use of that bitter face so sincerely trying to avoid stupid wars? He is not the real power holder. His beloved head of state has long announced the fate of Norway, trying to satisfy Hitler's ambitions by persuading the Norwegians to surrender and avoid war.

    The history of the Anti-Japanese War of a small country, the dignity of the king of a small country. The characters are very distinct. The king who loves the weak and steadfast of children, the colonel who calmly and decisively ordered the initiative to attack the enemy ship, the German ambassador who worked hard for peace, and the ignorant young soldier who only smiled and saluted the king. Stories from the brink of war are a little dull for a nation that has experienced too many wars.

    Looking at the history of the Anti-Japanese War of these small countries, it is always refreshing. Comparing the Eastern Front and East Asia, there is only one sigh.
