Not many people can remember the lesson of blood

American movies about wars are basically anti-war. It is impossible to sing the war, nor would they sing the warriors. This bomb disposal unit is no exception. Another feature of American war movies is that they are true, not exaggerated or exaggerated, and you don't see any impassioned rhetoric such as "For a new America, advance" or "Fire at me for victory." However, this kind of coldness is the true face of war, and war is so disgusting and confusing. This film is about the bomb disposal unit. After the war in Iraq, the bomb disposal unit may be the most dangerous service. The film expresses the cruelty of war and the fragility of life through the experience of several bomb disposal crews. Of course, there is also the deep-rooted hatred of a small group of Iraqis. When democracy and freedom collide with nationalism, most people may choose the nation. Doctrine, especially when this democratic freedom is imposed on you, and these people are still heretics. This kind of thing will never be clear, and there will not be many people who can remember the lesson of blood. A few years ago, I watched a movie "Bowl Head" that reflected the Iraq war. It felt very classic, but no one seemed to agree with me. This time I watched "The Hurt Locker" I also think it is very classic, especially its plot is more attractive, I think more people will agree with me this time.

Staff Sergeant William James: That's my son. He's ' tough little bastard. Nothin' like me.
Sergeant JT Sanborn: You mean to tell me you married?
Staff Sergeant William James: Well, you know, I had a girlfriend and, uh, she got pregnant, so we got married, and we got divorced... or, you know, I thought we got divorced. I mean, she's still living in the house and she says we're still together, so I... I don't know. Wha-what does... what does that make her? I don't know.
Sergeant JT Sanborn: Dumb... for still being with your ass.
[laughs]
Staff Sergeant William James: [kicks at Sanborn] Hey! She ain't fucking dumb, all right? She's just loyal. She's just loyal, that's all.
