Jiang Wen must be able to shoot well. After all, he likes "The Bridge on the River Kwai" too much, and these two stories are too similar in purpose. There are many places in the final film that pay tribute to "The Bridge on the River Kwai", or the shadow of this film...

Japanese prisoner of war camp: The bridge was built together, and the relationship between the Japanese army and the prisoners of war was transformed into workmates. Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the three countries have their own national characteristics. The last beautiful bridge of the story stands

Volunteer POW Camp: To host the Olympics together, the relationship between volunteers and prisoners of war has been transformed into referees and athletes. Chinese, Korean, American, Italian, British... The last beautiful medals and prizes in the story.

Looking forward to director Jiang Wen

The Bridge on the River Kwai quotes

  • Commander Shears: I can think of a lot of things to call Saito, but "reasonable"... that's a new one.

  • Colonel Nicholson: It is quite understandable; it's a very natural reaction. But one day - in a week, a month, a year - on that day when, God willing, we all return to our homes again, you're going to feel very proud of what you have achieved here in the face of great adversity. What you have done should be, and I think will be, an example to all our countrymen, soldier and civilian alike. You have survived with honor - that, and more - here in the wilderness. You have turned defeat into victory. I congratulate you. Well done.
