A stage is a family drama of war and lone boat.

The reason why Battle of the Furious Sea first attracted me to watch is very simple, that is, the war and the story of the era in that background. At the beginning of my viewing, the first feeling he brought to me was its calm and steady opening. , slowly showing the lives of sailors. To the audience, this is an unfamiliar ship and an unfamiliar story, but after that, we saw the skillful and tacit operation of the battleship that encountered the enemy, which made us feel To their living history, the ingenuity of the captain and the way the crew is united.

They are like family members, taking care of the wounded, caring for comrades in arms, captains and doctors sitting in the rear cabin and playing beautiful melody on the piano, while the old hat cooks on the lower deck are also habitually complaining and landing on the ship. Long and his doctor playing.

Of course, silly old sailors don't appreciate the captains' music, they like to play happy dance music.

During the day, a group of stupid big men gathered around and watched the doctor operate on the old man. They whispered and guessed what the doctor was capable and capable of. They were innocent farmers and sailors, and their superiors shouted for them to return to their posts. After driving them away, he couldn't help but turn his head to look over there. This is a group of very interesting and lovely men.

These interesting and vivid plots arranged by the director allow us to understand the life on the ship at that time (although we can't know whether these belong to "pseudo-history", it is enough that the moving he presents to us is real. This is not a A ship composed of more than 100 people is so simple and superficial, but it is not so complicated in it. It is more like a home and a big family floating on the ocean.

Then, bad things interrupted what we thought was good, and bad things followed one after another. Disputes, quarrels, suspicions, conflicting struggles among the crew members, and my heart went to a dark and silent state along with the background music and the tone of the picture.

The doctor in the play is the character that attracts me the most. On the whole ship, he is the two people who can understand each other for the captain and the captain. On this ship, only the two of them have a common language, like the parents of the ship, worrying. The development and future of the ship. Only the two of them could have something in common. But with the breakup between the captain and the doctor, it also represented instability inside the ship. At the same time, along with the loss of wind and water and food, the whole thing was going in a bad direction. There were rumors in the ship, and the family began to Split.

Because the captain failed to keep his promise, and the doctor failed to go ashore to investigate, the doctor was too fond of nature and went after the enemy, which led to bad things intensifying. After the doctor was shot by mistake, I saw the captain staring at his own Qin, he then made the right decision, he decided to turn around, honor duty and friendship, he chose the latter, I think this ship can float so far, it is only through the support and support of human emotions, If you lose these ships, it will really become a "prison drifting at sea" in the doctor's mouth.

After the doctor was rescued, the rain came, and the crew reunited, I heard the sailors singing and humming again, and everyone reunited, which moved me. The men supported each other and drifted forward in the waves.

I think this film revolves around the bond between people, not so complicated and not so simple, just life.

I like the last scene of the French captain very much. He pretended to be a doctor and deceived the protagonist. The protagonist managed to react and turned around immediately, leaving everyone with an open ending. Yes, their voyage continued to drift in that era. In the middle of the ocean, this warm and icy cabin contained sailors on the masts, noisy decks, stinking lower decks, rickety hammocks, wet and cold sea breezes, and that warm human touch.

Good-looking, don't need too much nonsense, life, don't need too much hypocrisy.

This film is a story of people supporting each other.

    Calamy, Midshipman: Did you meet him, sir? Can you tell me what he was like?
