Tears or shivers, but this movie doesn't make us hate it

The images in the copy are slowly showing this piece of
history, this piece of history that we will definitely remember but never really delve into and pay homage to from the heart. It
seems that the negatives are immersed in the developing solution and turned quickly
with heavy artillery fire. And the smell of dust
brought you into the film without negotiating for

130 minutes
I didn't cry
because it wasn't a movie to teach you to hate



Liu Ye's beheading
This scene didn't appear in the print
I couldn't Imagine how much the sudden change of release time made Lu Chuan reluctantly give up his original intentions and the sacrifices of the actors.
Lu Jianxiong's death was not special like all soldiers who
were executed collectively. The dead brothers walked silently to the tombs that were powerless to resist. Many people cried when they shouted "Long Live China". I didn't cry, but I didn't cry, but I felt like I was ignited and my heart was shaking. A few tiny philistine words and deeds were played at the beginning. Her identity as a prostitute is undoubtedly revealed , and with the fall of the Rabe refugee camp, we also know that the one who will finally exchange the body for a moment for the public's right to live will have such a woman who once used her body to eat but still has self-respect. Her name is Jiang Yiyan. After watching the movie, she started. I have a crush on this woman because of this role. It 's humble and pitiful, but it's so heartbreaking. She can't hold a gun. When men give up resistance in the face of fall , maybe all a woman can do is this humiliating dedication.




















The soldiers died tragically when they were shot and buried,
and she and the other women
were naked and pressed against each other until they died. They were pushed away in public by a flatbed
. I
am very grateful to her
. Just like "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling",
a woman with such a status in this history
deserves all the respect and gratitude



of Teacher Jiang played by Gao Yuanyuan.
There is not a lot of space in the film, but I don't always feel that this woman It is the focus
. She is not as struggling as Mr. Tang, played by Fan Wei.
She simply holds the belief that as long as she has Rabe's protection in the refugee camp, she can
survive
. The only people to protect are women and children.
In order to rescue the men who were caught,
she knew very well that in those few minutes she ushered in the end of her life. The
phrase "shoot me"
is the last choice a woman can make for her dignity.
This role is very She is so weak that it even makes people have the urge to protect her.
She is different from the prostitute played by Jiang Yiyan.
They have different outlooks on life, different identities, different sentiments, and different pursuits.
However, in the face of massacres and those who have been destroyed by war to the point of numbness The weaker,
they can only force themselves to do something


If you watch the whole movie
and relive those scenes in your mind
It's that painful feeling I don't know if we feel the same
It seems like someone has an unknown weight tied to the neck And the size of the stone
into the sea
You want to breathe and you want to stick your head out of the sea
But the rocks keep pulling you down and down
until you can't breathe
Until all your veins freeze Still
until your heart bursts it
's
you who burst it Unbearable and replaying the history of replaying

Sitting in the cinema and reliving death in front of my eyes again and again
I am like those people who have guns in their hands but have been numb with the fall of the country and the city
Except for sitting and waiting for the Japanese soldiers to arrange different arrangements I can only sit
and wait for the next act the director arranges to
sigh or tremble
I can't control

these killers as young as the slaughtered and
they can be handsome either the abuser or the ugly
and they too You can have your own little happiness and expectations. It is not a murderer, it is not a human being, they are just puppets completely
controlled by the collective will. The man hides in the corner and weeps I think the history brought by the whole movie is a history that is completely unfamiliar to him This is what he can't bear A man can't stand living in a lie, a man can't accept that he lives in a country made up In the lies, when he loves his country unconditionally, this scene of facing the atrocities of his ancestors, he is puzzled, confused and faceless, and the pressure of coming to China to make such a film. The meaning of his tears is more poignant than ours. The music in the movie is good, although he has elements of Japanese music
















Our blood will burn our hearts for the humiliation and the slaughter
but the movie doesn't make us hate
it because we can also see the timidity of the Japanese, the struggle and repentance of the Japanese as the twisted and
our giving up resistance is Numbness and their continued slaughter is not a form of obedience and numbness.

We can continue to hate and hate that war and hate the perpetrators.
We have reason to hate and hate those who covered up the truth
and relied on the merciless passage of time. Witness to that massacre The Japanese government and militarism who have never reflected on their own history,

but let us stop blindly hating them. Don’t think that smashing a Japanese car and destroying Japanese goods at home is a patriotic expression of
patriotism. Please give yourself more dignity. The nation has more dignity.

At least after watching this movie,
please wait until the subtitles are played and the music stops
. Give all the cast and crew the due respect.
Give that history a respect .
If you still have the strength
, please applaud.
I think this is also patriotic. and remember

    Remember history. The editing of the film is not good, and it looks a bit scattered. Of course, this may be the effect that the director wants.

    Lu Chuan pushed the judgment of right and wrong to the audience, but this seemingly objective and calm attitude showed his uncertainty. In exchange for a good citizen certificate, Secretary Rabe made a deal with the Japanese army, revealing that there were still Chinese soldiers left in the refugee camp, and finally gave his colleagues the chance to live and behaved extremely tragically, which is really inexplicable. The Nanjing city built does not have any Nanjing atmosphere.
