Because of the age, the scene is relatively simple, there is almost no movement of the mirror, and the lack of special effects makes the picture appear dull. However, the film narrative is complete and vivid, and it is a work of the 1930s, which is generally excellent.
After watching this movie, I didn't expect that the anti-war movie routine started in the 1930s, starting from the life of a small person, first showing how happy the original life was, and then showing the cruelty of the battlefield. The comparison between the two makes people feel emotional. And the separation of the individual from the collective makes war absurd. Ninety years later, the anti-war thinking of many modern films still remains at this level. Wish there were more angles.
