In 1972, a world-renowned Olympic Games (although it seems that every Olympic Games attracts the world's attention) was held in the Federal Republic of Germany, which was the twentieth edition of the Munich Olympics. This Olympic Games may be the most humiliating one in history. Why do you say that? Less than 20 days into the Olympics, the Palestinian extremist group "Black September" broke into the Olympic Village and kidnapped 11 Israeli athletes in order to demand the release of the detained members of the group. However, without much negotiation and negotiation, the police of the Federal Republic of Germany rushed directly into the terrorist's lair in an attempt to rescue the hostages by armed force, which resulted in the deaths of all 11 athletes. Steven Spielberg directed a related film, "Munich," which was about exactly this, and which also involved the political revenge of the Mossad. What happened in the heavily guarded Olympic Village, the Olympic Organizing Committee had no choice but to accept and announce that the remaining teams were eligible to retire, but the game would not end. I watched "The Killing of Munich" today. The main line of the story is that it happened in 1971-1972. It mainly tells the story of a poor basketball coach with a poor son and a disabled son, who led a group of low-to-medium-level basketball players to defeat the Mighty One in the basketball finals of the Munich Olympics for 36 consecutive years without losing in the Olympics. The story of the mighty American team of the ball. The film is from Russia. I didn't expect too much from this film, and it doesn't have an advantage in terms of box office and publicity in China. My friends and I made a choice between Men in Black, Spirited Away, and this one, and finally chose this one. At the beginning of the film, the compact music, the full picture, and the real situation of the 1970s attracted me all at once. There are all kinds of characters, including sports bureau executives who are timid and unwilling to accept new things; there are new Soviet team coaches who love basketball and try their best to treat his leg disabled son; there are tall Soviet team basketball Athletes, they are a group of people with the strongest character in Russia, headed by Sergey, who play the ball with the highest skill in Russia. "The whole street in Lithuania was empty when I was playing." "When he was playing, the whole Belarus was on vacation." The words can also show that although they are teammates, they are also secretly competing. Then after a game, at a press conference, the new coach A (hereafter referred to as A), facing the eyes of the media, said without hesitation: "We want to beat the US team". This is also the fuse and clue of the entire movie, and all the plots of the later films are unfolded from this point. At the very beginning when Garland took over as coach, there were many problems in the team. In the gym at the beginning, Paulaskas' humiliation of Belov could also reflect the team's lack of cohesion and the relationship between players. Very bad; in the game, the players play five games one by one, and they don't look at others, but only yearn for the basket. It is difficult to form a complete system alone. In addition, Sergey's high performance and even turned a deaf ear to the coach's opinions, which further reflects the team's lack of sense of integrity and cohesion. On the premise that Garland's own son needed money for treatment, he resolutely paid for Sasha's treatment in the United States. In the game with American universities, they established a good friendship with American college students, and obtained many things that the Soviet Union did not have to help them better adapt to the game, such as contact lenses, painkillers, etc., which can also reflect At that time, the Soviet Union was stagnant and unwilling to accept foreign things, which also aggravated the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The people of the whole sports bureau were discordant, and they blamed each other everywhere. big flaw. The big social background at this time was that in 1964, Khrushchev's regime was overthrown and Brezhnev succeeded as the supreme leader of the Soviet Union. At this time, the Soviet Union advocated vigorously developing military power to compete with the United States for hegemony. Brezhnev set the direction of national development through reforms. Research missiles. In the middle of its tenure, the Soviet Union's nuclear warheads surpassed that of the United States, making it the world's military superpower. It is precisely because of the simplification of economic development that the Soviet Union's development in daily necessities is flat or even going backwards, resulting in many things that the United States has but the Soviet Union does not. With the development of the plot, the film successfully integrated the three lines and told many stories. Three lines, the first is the story of Garland's own life (about the treatment of his son's leg), and the second is the difficult and depressing love story of Sasha and Alexandra , the third is based on the development of the Munich Olympics as the main line. After the Munich Massacre, most of the countries withdrew from the competition one after another, and the Soviet Union was also struggling frantically on the verge of not withdrawing from the competition. The entire national team gathered in Munich after overcoming many difficulties. Grateful and trusting, Galanzin treated his players with love and concern as if they were his own sons. It made the team work together to overcome the difficulties, and finally the sports director stood up to confirm the continuation of the game, so it seemed that the final of the Olympic basketball could be staged. This process is blood-sucking, and the development of the plot also makes the story close to the heart. The little characters in the story: the streetball player who once brutally abused the Soviet national team players on the streets of the United States, the leadership team in the Soviet Union, the Georgian wedding team They, Belov's girlfriend, and the countless spectators throughout the stadium, these little people all contribute to the movie, making it the icing on the cake. In the final moments, when the game was restarted for the second time, Garland made a final effort to lay out the final tactics. That's when Sasha saw Alexandra, who was sitting in the audience and threw a ball at him from the heart. After the tactic was over, Sasha seemed to finally let go of the self that he had suppressed for a long time. He said to his teammates: "Now I understand, everything is possible in life." That bgm was elegant and soft, like a trickle, It quietly flowed into the hearts of all the audience, and the emotion is self-evident. Ivan served from the bottom line, Sasha went straight to the basket, these three seconds, as if time had been slowed down infinitely during this period of time, a long shot was given to everyone in this beautiful story, the Soviet team serving on the bench and Everyone in the coaching team stared at the ball and watched the ball pass through the air of the Ten Thousand Stadium. All hope was imposed on the ball that would decide the outcome of the game; Gestures; the leadership team in the Soviet Union threw away all the papers in their hands in anticipation, and everyone raised their hands with complicated emotions waiting for the final result; the Georgian wedding troupe stared blankly at the TV machine, looking forward to the victory of the Soviet team; Sasha's girlfriend raised her hands slightly with her eyes full of desire for victory and heartfelt cheer for her loved ones; and the expectant eyes of countless spectators throughout the stadium and nervous expressions. The three-second time film used a long shot of up to 2 minutes, and one long shot went down, which made the whole film instantly improve a grade, all the people, all the things, and the ball flying in the air and carrying a A team or even a country is looking forward to it! In the end, Sasha grabbed the ball and threw the lore ball in the last second! Cheers! Everyone! Cheers! this world! Watching Duan made me cry in the theater, a movie that really touched me. In the end, the players gave all the allowances and rewards to the coach, which was a perfect ending for the film. At the end of the screen, the real lore scene was played, which was equally exciting, but the movie itself is an art that is higher than reality. The amazing dunks of the American players in the game, although not easy to see in the real basketball game, but these are the language of the movie, in order to reflect the difficulty of the Soviet Union's subsequent victory. One of the best movies of 2019!
