The Great Revolution that was born in France in 1789 was the first revolution in human history that could be called a Great Revolution. From the perspective of the depth of influence, it was not wrong with the North American War of Independence at the same time and was a sister revolution, but the result was very different: the new United States Except for a civil war between the North and the South, it has grown steadily, and finally became the hegemon of the world economy, politics, culture and military. After the French Revolution, after the Girondists came to power and the Jacobin dictatorship, it became more and more radical. The terror and tyranny far exceeded the original. The dynasty finally recovered its calm after Napoleon proclaimed himself emperor, but since then the aftershocks of the revolution have been wave after wave, and it has now entered the Fifth Republic. Not only that, the activist trend of thought has been consciously or unconsciously led to disasters. From the walking Rousseau to the Russian Robespierre to the Chinese Lenin, this specter has sometimes turned into a fascist, sometimes a Soviet, and the 20th world has become more and more fierce. Perhaps it finally reached the smoky Pacific Ocean, and the waves of the East China Sea cooled this fierce heat. Perhaps in the near future, its fundamental form will end on the eastern peninsula.
The movie leaves the last scene to the enthusiastic revolutionaries. The image is stalwart and full of positive energy. Of course, it is romantic enough. It also fully proves France's arrogance and short memory. So why is France the first Western country to establish diplomatic relations with red China? Why can existentialism and China's cultural revolution hit it off? Why is the country rich in left-wing literary and art workers? Why this country still has riots from time to time and other issues can be easily solved!
