The Civil War, a war between Southerners and Yankees, for liberty, for honor. Soldiers from the lower ranks rushed to the front lines for unknown dreams and vanity to become high-ranking soldiers, killing the enemy or being killed, living or dying. Such episodes continued in that messed-up land last week until the end of the war.
And Lengshan is a land full of tenderness, it is so beautiful, it is so harmonious and warm. The people there work diligently to farm and pray devoutly, as if they are in a paradise. However, the fireworks of the war still spread to this peaceful land. Adult men went to the front line, while the old and weak women and children stayed at their homes, waiting for the information of their relatives, waiting for the end of the war.
The beginning of the story begins with the arrival of a beautiful woman. Like a cliché bubble drama, the hero and heroine fall in love at first sight, and after frequent eye contact, they finally fall in love. But their love is not vigorous, and even the time two people spend together can be calculated in minutes, and the words two people can say can be counted, but their love transcends class, transcends region, transcends time and space, that kind of love, so Refreshing.
I feel that this film is very similar to "Gone with the Wind", with the same background of the Civil War and the same noble heroine. The hero goes out to fight, and the heroine stays in his hometown to wait for him. Due to the pressure of life, he gives up the role of the eldest lady and starts to work on the farm, supporting the sky. The sudden war separated the men and women in love, but failed to stop their love. Different from the ending of "Gone with the Wind", the hero of "Cold Mountain" also died because of the rogue's dying shot after killing the gangster in the town, just like the heroine saw in the well, the man in the snow The protagonist came as if he was about to fall in a group of crows, but the heroine did not expect this ending even though she saw this moment in advance. Their love had only just begun, and the cruel reality made it all come to an abrupt end, as if he never came back, as if the vigorous love never came. In her ears, what he said when she first saw him, "My name is Iman." Seeing the crystallization of their love, she felt as if he was by her side and never left.
So a group of people who have been hurt formed a new family, a woman who lost her husband and two sons, a violinist who lost her partner and her daughter, after this war, everything has changed, and everything seems to be the same Change. Happiness seems to be close at hand, but everyone has their own ring in their hearts.
What would have happened without this war?
I was very impressed with Iman's words, Cold Mountain, why does a meaningless name make me so sad?
