Is it honorable

I just finished watching this movie, I don't know if it was more shocking because I watched it in the cinema, like a sadness that I couldn't express.
There are a lot of contradictions there, especially the issue of race. The sergeant does not want to face that he has an Arab mother, and does not want French women to fall in love with North Africans and cut off their contact. All North African soldiers have to To respect the promises made to them is just empty talk.
"I liberated my motherland, although I have never seen her, she is still my motherland." The words of the Algerian will make France cry for him. Perhaps only the beautiful French land weeps for the soldiers who fell on her, not because they were not born in his arms.
The dead are sad. When they were alive, they never knew what they wanted to protect. The living were even more sad, because the dead must have finished the kingdom of heaven, but the living experienced the same cruelty as war. discriminate.
Sometimes death can also be a gift. To live is to suffer endlessly.
Perhaps this movie is not just about the cruelty of war, but also the cruelty of human nature.
Looking at the shadow of the car leaving the colonel who had promised him that he didn't care, the sadness of the North African soldiers reached the extreme from that moment. The sadness in their hearts may not be erased or covered by the ruthless desert.
Are these glorious years worthy of being called glorious?

    I actually watched it in 2009, and I have no impression. I will watch it again on my mobile phone in 2021. A film that aims to go first, the story integration is relatively poor, the two songs at the beginning and the end are good, and the characters of the five indigenous soldiers are well chosen, no wonder they won the Actors Award: Obedient, Pretender, Fantasy, Speculator and Revolutionary and, in the end, the revolutionaries survived.

    There is its shadow in the Brotherhood, France, a country full of pain and inequality, but there are still people who have been treated unequally.
