In recent years, there are about three films in Russian film and television that I have come into contact with. One drama is "The Dark Side of the Moon". The interesting thing about "The Killing of Munich" that I saw on the Internet is that their themes are completely different. They go through suspense, fantasy love, social reality, and sports inspiration. The one I love is "The Fool in Dangerous Building", and the second one is "The Killing of Munich", but in general, I have encountered too few Russian films. I didn't expect that in terms of production level, as a commercial film, a little Not lose to the US.
The film is adapted from the story of the final between the Soviet Union and the United States at the Munich Olympics in Germany in 1972. The film fully restores the state of the Soviet Union at that time. However, the filming is not old-fashioned and does not create a strong sense of distance.
Perhaps we can more or less understand the general background of the story and the role played by the national team under the Soviet system in those days. Players from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Lithuania, and Kazakhstan, from various regions of the Soviet Union, have pure love for basketball, but also helplessness of identity and physical helplessness.
And the head coach of the core figure did not hide the fact that he tried to find a way to become the head coach of the national team, save money and find relationships in order to treat his son from the beginning. But one cannot easily define a person just because of such a seemingly selfish behavior of individual needs. Behind this, there is also the firm belief he holds because of his love. He may bring some selfishness because of the hardships of life, but when this selfishness is faced with the choice of belief, he can be abandoned without hesitation. For example, using the money for medical treatment for his son to pay for the medical expenses of the team members, such as taking all the heavy responsibilities to protect the safety of the team members, and sabotaging their future for the last battle, behind the beliefs are love and responsibility, love is basketball, and responsibility is the team.
In this team, except for the coach, other people also have small problems of one kind or another. Some people violate the discipline to fall in love, some people hide their shortsightedness, some people don't believe in the ability of their teammates, some people want to leave the team... No People are perfect, but these imperfect people share a common passion. Therefore, at the last moment, some people gave up their pride, some people gave up their identity, and some even risked their lives and chose to trust and fight together, and it was possible to create miracles.
There are many unavoidable realities between people and the times, or the times and people, but only belief can change everything, and belief may always be doubted and longed for.
My most real feeling for the miracle of faith comes from Marbury, who led the Beijing Shougang team to three championships for four years. When the head coach said in the movie that we were going to win the U.S. team and go to Munich to win the championship, there was an uproar at the top. But for me, a familiarity swept over. It was in the empty training venues in Beijing. When Marbury, a newcomer, shouted that he wanted to win the Guangdong championship, he was only greeted with disapproving glances. Over the years, I have always reminisced about that incredible.
Decades later, I learned about this classic battle between Russia and the United States on the big screen, and once again realized how terrifying the blessing of faith is in addition to strength. The truth.
Such a movie will undoubtedly awaken some of our deepest desires, which may also be why some people love basketball. It doesn't really matter about basketball, what really matters is, for everyone, the things you have faith in because of your love. Love is rare, persistence is difficult. Sometimes, some things are not complicated, but it is extremely difficult to have them. Those who can fight for their hearts are extremely happy, such as "The Killing of Munich", as well as previous "Bohemian Rhapsody" released soon.
If you haven't experienced it on the big screen, you can't understand how shocking a concert or a basketball game will be.
In "Love Munich", the Munich final scene of nearly half an hour is highly restored. For a basketball fan, it can't be better. For a non-basketball fan, maybe you can pass this game, right Interested in basketball. For me, how much I hope that such a post-production team can reproduce the highlight moments of the Marbury Dynasty in Beijing Shougang (idiots say dream face). Putting aside the distance of basketball level, purely from a competitive point of view, Russia defeated the US team in 1972 and the Beijing team defeated the Guangdong team in 2012, creating the same legend. Therefore, in addition to the blood, there is also a Feel the same.
The two reversals on the Munich field and the three-second decisive victory will not feel dramatic for those who like basketball games, and may even have a real miracle in their own memory as a comparison. If you happen to have your favorite team, the nervousness like cardiac arrest before the victory or defeat, the excitement or depression at the moment of success or failure cannot be expressed in words. The reproduction of a basketball match in "The Killing of Munich" is of a high standard, which is rare. Details, rhythm, emotions, and techniques have been processed to the greatest extent possible without leaving any traces, which vividly reflects the charm of basketball.
Such an attempt does not make people feel abrupt, because the narrative rhythm of the whole story is very relaxed and relaxed. Those Russian-style ridicule and self-deprecation dispel the tension of the competition, and the real character setting brings the sense of distance closer. There is no deliberate dramatic conflict, but it produces a strong sense of drama. The level of today's Russian films is really surprising, and I sincerely look forward to seeing more excellent Russian films in the future.
