It is easy to compare this film with "Schindler's List", no doubt the latter has more epic atmosphere and artistic shock. But I always feel that Schindler is too perfect, like a veteran officialdom with an uncompromising conscience, too chic, too calm and unhurried, like a savior descending from the sky. Relatively speaking, Paul, the protagonist of the film, has been an ordinary person from the beginning. He has the sophistication of a businessman, and he once ignored the lives of his neighbors because of his timidity. He himself faces the threat of death, and he also has a deep fear of death. Only after hearing and witnessing scenes of tragedies of extinction of humanity, in line with the kind and compassionate feelings in my heart, the care and protection for wives and children gradually extended to all Tutsi who prayed for refuge in Rwanda hotels. In this way, he has grown step by step into a hero with great courage and wisdom. He exerted and used all survival skills as much as possible, pleaded in a low voice, exhausted all the bribes, spent the limited time gained to seek international assistance, and even used the other party's psychological weakness to coax and threaten when he was isolated and helpless. When he resolutely decided to separate from his family and stay to take care of the other Tutsi, I was moved. This is a sense of responsibility, and any awe-inspiring statement is not as good as a glimpse of nostalgia.
However, the utilitarian attitude of the Western countries that have created a high degree of material civilization and possessed the most powerful military power chilled everyone's teeth. They turned around and continued to study the strategic significance and divide their spheres of influence, because "Rwanda is not worthy of being saved, you even Not black, you are just Africans". The cruel slaughter makes us scared and inexplicable, and the indifferent heart makes us more likely to fall into complete despair. After reflection, I suddenly thought, what can we do in the face of such a cold reality? I'm afraid it can only be as the reporter said, "I saw the scene of the massacre on TV, said'It's terrible', and then continued to eat dinner."
