America's "Central Propaganda Department"

This is definitely a very good film about American patriotism. The level of the "Central Propaganda Department" in the United States is still quite high. I think it is surprising that this film has no official investment background. If that's the case, then the patriotic enthusiasm of the Americans is much higher than that of the Chinese, even though our patriotic education has been instilled since childhood.

In fact, the story of the film is very simple. It tells the story of the alternation of old and new coast guards. Their task is not to catch smugglers, etc., but to save people and save those who encounter shipwrecks. In the end, the heroic old players exchanged their lives for the beliefs of the new players. Americans are brilliant, and they never put "patriotism" in their mouths. They always tell the story of a person very calmly, his work, life, marriage, family, the legend of the old team hero and his real life. There are many unsatisfactory things, his wife leaves him, his colleagues don't trust him, his students don't accept him, etc. But in the end, he gets the understanding of everyone around him, because he is silently dedicating himself to everything.

At the end of the film, it mentions the American people like the protagonist, who are saving lives and supporting all rising beliefs in this country. Seeing this, I have to admire the ideological propaganda of the Americans, high, really high! This old hero is just like the United States itself. The United States is promoting its democracy, civilization, system, and technology in all countries in the world. The United States also needs to get more understanding and support, even though the means may be violence and deception, ha! It is a pity that I have watched so many domestic patriotic educational films since I was a child. In addition to making me more afraid of torture and making me more aware of my cowardice, it seems that it is difficult for me to consciously shoulder the greatness of being the successor of communism. mission.

I think the leaders of the Central Propaganda Department and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television should watch this film, maybe they can get some inspiration, how to make a patriotic film, how to really move people's hearts? Recently, there has been a lot of propaganda about the Red Army. To be honest, the painful experience of the Red Army's Long March was actually made fun. Although it is revolutionary romanticism, it is too unconvincing, right? Who can deeply realize that the flag of the Republic is dyed red with blood through these modern-colored films and TV series?
