The title of a hero is in exchange for his life. People who have truly been heroes may never want to have a second time in their lives.

At that time, the Vietnam War had a great impact on American soldiers. After the war, the soldiers came back lingering, their comrades-in-arms died. What do people want when they come back? They don't want hero titles, and they don't need the government to satisfy any of their wishes. They only want those politicians who have never fought to know that life, which is precious to everyone, is so insignificant on the battlefield. People who have seen life and death only want peace.

    Carpenter’s second study: I ​​remember watching it once in the early years, but I don’t have a good impression. Looking at it today, I still can’t change the rescue story shaped by the sense of doomsday. The punk style is rampant, and it runs through Carpenter’s iconic electronic music. Still can't hide the poor quality of the film. Compared with the previous work "Murder in the Night Fog", the story is actually dull, but the limitation of space should lay the foundation for the masterpiece "The Strange Shape"
