About the War The Battle
of Stalingrad was a turning point in the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union and a turning point in the Second World War. When Hitler repeated the mistakes of Germany's defeat in World War I and adopted the two-front war, most of the German generals did not approve. It is a pity that the Fuhrer was too confident, stubbornly tore up the so-called "Soviet-German Non-aggression Agreement", and gave Stalin a big surprise with cannons and planes. Stalin believed that it was a matter of time before Germany invaded the Soviet Union, but it would not come so early. Although he fulfilled his responsibilities as an excellent commander and leader in World War II, his misjudgment also led to the Soviet Union's invasion at the beginning of Germany's invasion. 's loss. Even when Germany had declared war on Germany, Stalin did not immediately think that his lovable brother Hitler could not wait any longer. For the initial defeat of the Soviet Union's Western Front, this wrong judgment bears a great deal of responsibility. At that time, many troops on the Western Front were still being reorganized, and weapons and ammunition were not adequately supplied, so they failed all the way. By the way, the Western Front Those Soviet commanders were unlucky enough, and basically all were executed by military law for treason. This is a bit like what was said at the beginning of the film, even if there are not enough guns, just ask the soldiers to rush forward to die, and those who return will be punished with treason. The initial defeat of the Soviet Union also made Hitler very proud. He actually felt that he could easily deal with the East and then go to meet his enemy in the West - Britain (the French who like to shout in the name of independence, freedom and democracy have already surrendered early. ). The Soviet people's perseverance in the battle of Stalingrad dragged the German army to death. From then on, Germany was forced to fight on two fronts at the same time. As for how the Soviet people dragged down the German army, I really didn’t read much and dared not talk nonsense. Just from the movie of imperialism vilifying communism, part of it was forced to fight the German army (as if mentioned above), part to defend the homeland (like Sasha and his mother, and Tania), and part I think their gift is in the war (like Vasily), and forced to Comrade Stalin's arrogance (God, he won't come out of hell to persecute me).
No one likes war, and no one likes to be a hero in war, but war is ruthless, and it will never sneak past you just because you don't like it. So at this time you have no choice. The emergence of such a hero as the
hero
Vasily not only inspired the morale of the Soviet Red Army, but also rekindled the hope of the Soviet people. From this perspective, Danilov is well versed in psychology (knowledge is different Oh). A hero is not just a model, a role model, but a god for us. In countries and times where beliefs are scarce and perilous, heroes are basically born in large numbers. The difference between ordinary people and great people is their attitude in despair. For example, Yu Minhong saw hope in the depressed and poor teaching life, founded New Oriental in despair, and became the richest man in Haidian. If it were me, I would definitely sink into the depressed and unhappy teaching life. . This is the difference, great people can see hope in despair, but we can't, so even greater people have to create hope for us, and this is the birth of a hero. Vasily is like the protector of Stalingrad. He can annihilate many enemies every day (historical records are about 6 per day on average), and many of these people are German snipers. If there is such a god there, what can you do? Worried about it? For example, if a hateful German bullied you today, you can imagine that he will die under the gun of Vasily tomorrow, and Vasily will not let him go. At the same time, you will also think that Vasily was a man of ordinary background, and he became a hero by virtue of his belief in communism (it is estimated by my experience), and I will do it too. After all, when will the young Are still there. One hero is enough to make the whole nation boil. By the way, do you still remember Liu Xiang? It is said that he came back to attend the CPPCC meeting.
As a hero, Vasily was very happy when he first started, honoring his ancestors, honoring his ancestors, and the benefits of being transferred, from a unit with two people sharing a gun to a sniper team. Slowly, people placed more and more expectations on him, hoping that he could quickly kill the German sniper expert Connie who specially came to hit him. The German hero against the Soviet hero, this victory is of great significance to the life and death of the Soviet Union, not to mention that their confrontation happened to be a confrontation between two classes, so this victory raises a high level of theory for class struggle. of great significance. Hunters from nobles (who usually fight deer) versus hunters from peasants (who usually fight wolves). It is impossible for our Soviet hero to say that he turned his feet and looked at Stalingrad with a painful face under the obscenity of Comrade Khrushchev, and his fans left. He had to tell the truth that he couldn't. But as a hero of the Red Army, how can he say that he can't do it? There is only one person who is qualified to say that a hero can't do it, and that is the person who shapes the hero. So bite the bullet. It can be seen that being a hero is not fun, and it can be seen that the annual advertising fee of tens of millions of dollars must not be easy to earn. Vasily's final victory was based on love, but not on the love of the fanbase, but on the people he really cared about. When he was 5 years old, he lost his horse because he missed the wolf. He cried to his grandpa and said forgive me, forgive me. A few years later, because he didn't kill his German opponent Connie in time, his beloved people were hurt again and again, and he didn't want to say "forgive me" anymore.
Heroes come and go quickly. When Vasily went to the field hospital to find Tania, no one recognized him as a hero, but I think this may be the life Vasily wants. He's just a gifted shooter.
about human nature
I used to think that people in war have dehumanized their humanity. Why else would human beings have such horrific massacres and harm innocent civilians without conscience? From my meager reading, I learned that when the Japanese invaded, there were still people who went to get off work and went to work every day, bought firewood, rice, oil and salt, educated their children, and dated couples. During the war, people could still maintain their daily lives. They are tenacious, but what if they don't? Human nature is like this, to pursue a comfortable and stable life, to love one's relatives and friends. Vasily would rather live well with his lover than be a hero. One of the scenes after killing Connie is not to take credit for Khrushchev but to go to the hospital to find his lover Tania. Danilov, who armed himself with communism, actually tricked Sasha's mother into defecting to the Germans because he thought the mother would rather know that her child had a better life, no matter which side he was on Alignment, it turns out, he was right. Danilov also took Tania to the security department several times under the pretense of public welfare and private interests to protect the woman he loves. His final death, more of a kind of despair, as he said, even in the Soviet Union, there are rich and poor, some are rich in talent, some are poor in talent, some are rich in love, some are poor in love, and the immediate The Wassilybi, he was as poor as a talent for shooting, but also poor in love. He couldn't interpret his life with talent and love, so he planned to interpret his life with death. Connie's aristocratic air about him makes it impossible to associate him with a bloodthirsty executioner. Connie handed over his badge along with a cross, which he said belonged to his son. If it weren't for the war, maybe Connie was hunting in a forest in Germany with his son, who was as elegant, neat and calm as he was. However, these are unknown. Connie is more of a kind of sympathy for Vasily, and it is a match for each other. Tania learns about Vasily's desperate rescue after a dangerous situation, and her madness after seeing Sasha's body. In this world, for a woman, there is nothing like losing a person she loves. distressed. Many people complain about the fickle power of women on the Internet, but I really want to say that for a real woman, she is always willing to use her own to switch to a firm love, and can you give it? At the beginning of the film, the panic and helplessness of those ignorant faces that were just sent to the battlefield and the desire to survive no longer exist in the progress of the film. What you can see in the second half of the film is that everyone put every day To live as the end of the world, in time of war, to love and be happy. You can't choose to stay away from war, you can only choose to be happy in war Live each day of the unknown or mourn a future death with grief. An old sniper in the sniper group that Vasily followed was sneering at their communist ideals while defending their communist regime with his life. In fact, when the problem of survival is in front of us, for most ordinary people like us, the ideal is just a P. (If we don’t say that we are P people, it’s not ideal.)
Humanity is wiped out in war, and human nature also flashes in war. Which one is the real humanity? Human nature should be revealed naturally, don't try to force it out, that distorted thing is no longer called human nature. I finally understand that it is not our true humanity that manifests in the battle royale, nor are the people who committed numerous crimes in the concentration camps. Fortunately, we have returned to the age of natural revealing of human nature, what a lovely thing to let human nature reveal itself.
About love
and some people full of love, and some people are poor in love. Danilov's so-called loving person is the kind of person who can always get love. In fact, is it not love to love others? Love made Danilov go against his communist ideals, but he didn't get equal love. Love always needs to be echoed. When you speak loudly here, but no one on the other side speaks, how can the pain in that person be felt by the person on the opposite side? Connie asked Sasha, does Vasily have a lover? Sasha said yes, she was here. Connie asked if she loved him? Sasha said love, they will definitely get married. Love is that kind of thing, you can't hide it, you can see through it at a glance. When Connie asked Sasha, I thought to myself, could it be that he planned to arrest someone's lover and threaten him? (I have a darker mood.) However, Connie never knew about Tania, so I prefer to believe that the director's arrangement in this section is to tell us Connie's sympathy for Vasily. When Tania learned that Vasily was in danger, she desperately went to save him, and her love for Vasily overcame her fear. In fact, compared to the fear of losing a lover, what other fears are there? A woman can always love a man and wait for a man to do so. Tania said that when his parents died, at least they were together. They must be willing to die together. If they can't live with you, then I would rather die with you. When you open the door of my heart, how do you know that with your departure, that door may be closed forever. When Danilov died, he thought that he and his lover could be in the same world, and he should be happy at that moment. Sadly I always knew we were going to split into two worlds.
about movies
Jean-Jacques Arnold is very capable of discovering the beauty of men. In "The Lover", he can bring the mature man's charm of Tony Leung to the extreme. In a film dominated by men such as "Under the City", his specialties can be further enhanced. No matter the protagonist or the supporting role, whether it is an adult or a child, whether he is handsome or not, he is a charming man in his lens, and he is full of talent for discovering beauty. Jude Law has no sense of the petty bourgeoisie under his camera, leaving only a handsome, intelligent, brave and kind soldier. Jude is my type, I've always been amazed how God made him a deep and handsome man that drives me crazy, and now I'm even more grateful to Jean-Jacques Arnold for making him the way he is in the film. The other supporting characters are also not inferior. The refined and intelligent connotation of Joseph Fiennes who played Danilov was all excavated. There is also Ed Harris, who played the German sniper Connie, with his calm, sophisticated and aristocratic elegance. The actors and characters feel so right that I can't imagine who else can hold these roles. As much as I love Jude, I have to say that I think the two supporting actors in this film are better than our lead male lead.
In addition, the darkness at the beginning of the film did not begin to change until the battle for Stalingrad began to improve. The scene of a city ravaged and ruined by the war was really shocking, and the sniping at the beginning was even more intense in that department store. In contrast, the old appearance of the department store can still be vaguely seen through the ruins, and the cruelty of the war is needless to say here. This use of color reminds me of Schindler's List, a masterpiece in the history of human cinema.
Finally, let me say that Vasily really has such a person, but the real Vasily studied. Before becoming a sniper, he was an accountant. Later, after the liberation of the Soviet Union, he was the director of a manufacturing factory. Vasily was in In the film, Tania is told that he wants to enter the factory. He once saw the appearance of a factory owner, and he wants to be that kind of person. Later, he laughed and said it was impossible, and Tania said how do you know it was impossible? The real Vasily ended up doing that. Accounting is not to be underestimated.
