This film is a very realistic narration of the whole process of the collapse of the Romanov Dynasty after the Russo-Japanese War, from the selection of characters to the costumes are very elegant. Nicholas II is indeed faint, but not a tyrant ("Bloody Sunday" is more of an overreaction of the St. Petersburg guards, and the war is indeed due to personal arrogance and great success, but the huge casualties of World War I caused by the development of technology are definitely unexpected for him. , Reusing Rasputin is also affected by his wife and children, especially his wife, who is a genius), in terms of private morality, he is even a good husband, a good father (still a handsome guy), and in the process of giving up his rights, he is a good husband and a good father. The attitude of cooperation should not be so miserable. It can only be said that the feudal system has indeed come to withdraw from the stage of history, and his personal arrogance, stubbornness and indecision at the time of the change of dynasties just happened to step on the beat of aggravating the downfall of the dynasty, and he encountered the Bolshevik Party, a revolutionary and extremely thorough enemy and indecisiveness. The sensitive situation of the white army's fierce counterattack, a series of coincidences finally led to the tragic ending of his death and the annihilation of the whole family. Cruel? cruel! But compared with the millions of Russian tenant farmers who were oppressed and struggling to survive under the feudal system and foreign wars, what was his personal misfortune? According to Putin's staff, Putin once chatted with the people around him about the future fate of the country. He asked: Who is the biggest traitor in Russian history? Before the people around him could answer, Putin announced the answer in his heart. This answer is undoubtedly his sincere monologue: The biggest criminals in Russian history are those cowards who threw their power on the ground and let some lunatics pick them up. Such as the last Tsar Nicholas II, such as the last leader of the Soviet Union Gorbachev. This is also a major revelation for our country. With the deepening of reform and opening up, our country's political reform will inevitably be gradually advanced. I think that compared with leaders who restrict civil rights and freedoms, we should be more alert to those who easily give up their lofty beliefs and struggles Leaders of Faith, the life-and-death struggle continues despite a long life.
