I watched "Deer Hunter" the first time before going to bed. A long and complicated wedding at the beginning of the film made me boring. I wanted to sleep at first, but even after watching it. It is as if a menopausal woman is chatting about daily life, and it is extremely boring. Even after reading it twice, I still haven't changed my mind-this period takes too much time, and I can't find a good reason to answer the inevitable connection between certain fragments and the subject. For example, the heroine was insulted by her father, the woman who was touched on her ass at the wedding, the man who suddenly became nervous and streaked after the wedding, and Mike repeatedly emphasized not to change his boots to a lost friend...In my opinion, A good film work is a gossip array. Various images must be compact and powerful. They are connected to each other to pave the way for the final blow.
Therefore, when I shut down and went to bed, I even wondered whether the so-called classic is a kind of conformity.
After getting up the next day, I started to look at the place where I was cut off yesterday. Looking at the second half, I couldn't help but secretly rejoice in my heart. Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't violently capture Tianzhen.
After the wedding in the first half of the movie, the young people put on military uniforms and participated in the Vietnam War. The process of the war was omitted, and only a few frames flashed by. Then, the movie showed the scene of the yellow river in the Vietnamese river, Mike, Nick, and Stie were accidentally captured.
In historical battles, the chances of prisoners of war getting good treatment are rare and rare. However, the experience of prisoners of war in this Vietnam War is more shocking than any legend-the victor fished out the two prisoners from the water prison. Sitting at a small square table, facing each other in pairs, then put a bullet in a pistol, turn the gun wheel, let them shoot at their heads. Naturally there are those who don't follow, it doesn't matter, they naturally have a way to make you fall apart. Until the prisoner of war felt hopeless in life, he pulled the trigger on himself.
This is war, and its terrible thing is never the destruction of the human body, but the spirit. He has no sympathy for life, is extremely excited about blood, and is extremely cruel to killing. They treat prisoners of war as objects and let death be entertainment, and they don't worry that the other party is also a person of flesh and blood and emotion.
This is similar to the gambling in the ancient Roman bullring, but it is far more desperate than a fight between humans and bulls. Some people came across empty guns, others hit them immediately. Blood shot out like a fountain, splashing all the people and things around. However, the Vietnamese from onlookers laughed and put the loser's money in their pockets, and from the water prison. A pair of poor worms were dragged in...The
unspotted corpse was thrown into a puddle, and the gray mouse, which was as big as a cat, swam over and climbed up on their heads, starting from the wound to bite the bones of the young and ill. people.
It is really a kind of terrifying psychological violence. In the hearts of the experiencer, it hurts far more than the bombardment of nuclear bombing organs.
Sure enough, after the war, Nick struggled without a nightmare experience and became a professional roulette player. Stie hides in the nursing home, autistic, ruthless, and loses the courage to live anew. Only Ke survived. He not only rescued the bodies of his friends on the battlefield, but also continued to rescue the souls of Nick and Stey on the smoke-free battlefield after the war, Mike, who is undoubtedly a hero. However, heroes and epics are rare after all, and the common ones in the world are mediocre.
The theme of war has been greatly exaggerated in many movies, but no work can focus on the psychological trauma of people after the war like "Deer Hunter". Nick's journey is the rope of Princess Ariadne in the movie. Along it, we see the real war-it's not that corpses are everywhere, it is not that the people are not living, it is not devastated, and it is not the family. It is the severe poisoning of human nature, causing them to lose their faith, lose their faith, follow the cruel path, continue to drift away into the darkness, drift away...
