Although he is famous in film history, it is only Coppola's training. Real-time shooting, so there is learning value in geographical scenery. But it doesn't necessarily correspond exactly. For example, the North African battlefield was shot in Spain. At the end you know it has a certain depth of expression, positive and negative.
It is the best film made by director Schaffner, followed by Planet of the Apes.
Mozart doesn't play his piece from beginning to end, every passage of it is its element, from which variations can be made. Master Song will not re-watch a film, he only takes what he needs.
The movie is not driven by dialogue, and the lines are not particularly important, but the heroics of Patton are shown through scenes. For example, General Patton, who came to North Africa at dawn, sat valiantly in an armored vehicle. After rectifying military discipline, he came to the ancient Roman battlefield in North Africa, and then began to write poetry.
Patton was born in California into a wealthy family with a military family tradition. Amazingly, although he wrote and published a lot of poetry, he was dyslexic as a child, which many people don't know.
He has the cavalry to show off, likes clothes and shoes, and pays attention to military appearance and morale. But he happened to be a rebel again, using the word Zanuk described - a bad coward, rebel. But he really has the demeanor of a general, taking care of his subordinates.
After the air strikes, they came to the graves of fallen soldiers in the desert, and the six-pointed star of the Jews could be seen clearly. He insisted that the tomb be protected. And then on Rommel's side, the intelligence officer (throughout the film) reports to him that Patton, a man who believes in reincarnation, loves rants, and always takes the initiative. As they faced each other, Patton said in the mirror, I'm leading a fight to the death. When winning, he said to himself: Rommel, I have read your book! Many small details can see this person, and he is more three-dimensional.
The post-Battle of Catherine was filmed in Spain.
There's not much to learn from this film in terms of editing. But many of his subjective shots and the angles of performance are very impressive. Such as the Sicilian project. But he also showed unprecedented depth. For example, when Patton enjoyed the honor of Sicily, it really paid a price. The movie uses General Bradley to tell the truth. This is the duality of the honor-loving tiger general.
Movies are not driven by the lines, but by the situation.
What blocked the way to Messina, it turned out to be two stupid donkeys. After the bridge was cleared, a large number of wounded soldiers passed by the proud Nose of Patton, and you can see his anti-war sentiment in this film.
In order to save the cost of shooting, there are actually very few scenes of head-to-head confrontation. When attacking Palermo and Messina, the resisting army was basically invisible, and only the planes were hovering in the sky.
This is Zanuk's plan. It was the age of the hippies and the Vietnam War was in full swing, who would come here to see a movie promoting American militarism?
If it weren't for the protagonist Scott, the movie would be complete.

After the midfield, the Allies switched defenses, and Patton was used as a pawn to lure the Allies to implement their strategy. In order to better implement the Normandy landing. The movie shows him being deliberately arranged to live in a brothel in an upside-down way, to humiliate him on purpose. Here his confidence is at its lowest point.
But after the landing, he was chosen by Eisenhower as commander of the Third Army, a decision already made. Although Eisenhower did not appear in this film, his strategizing and strategizing are exquisite. This can be said to be a miracle. Just as in the Binxu, Jesus Christ did not show his face.
The editing of the last forty-five minutes of the film is worth studying. Coppola also knew that the last 25% of the rhythm of the film was to get faster and faster, with a positive tone. Through panning and military photography that expresses geometric beauty, Patton's momentum is shown, and his glorious image is forever frozen in our minds.
He was physically fit and competed in the 1912 Olympics, winning 5 medals in the 5-athlon. He only participated in World War I for three days, so after 29 years of the Great Depression, he has remained rich and exercised, as if he was born to prepare for World War II. So he, along with Essen, Montgomery, is slowly rising to falling stars.
His bravery and perseverance, his bravery, his stinky mouth, and his stubbornness will forever remain in our minds and become a teaching material for a big man.

Things are contradictory, the soldiers of the 94th Army are complaining about him, let them cross the Saar River (2nd Siegfried Line) two hours early, but so many comrades have died and lost so badly.
But there are also people praising him. This is a surprise. It was Patton who made the Second World War end many years early, and made the German generals scared and not knowing how to act. Although some sacrifices have been made, more sacrifices have been avoided. How should this be evaluated? He is like the atomic bomb, which makes people feel at a loss.
Patton won the battle of Trier and invaded the core area of the Rhine, which made generals like Green fearful, and they knew they were over.
Many soldiers commented that Patton was just making a show. It's about treating the battlefield as Hollywood. But because of this kind of show, he was shocked by the other party.
