What is an epic film, just look at this film to know. There are magnificent wars, soul-stirring love, touching family affection, and some thought-provoking thoughts. "Gone with the Wind" is a classic that can never be surpassed by this type of film. All of the above are included in this epic 165-minute blockbuster, so watch whichever you like. In fact, every point of this film is not bad, but if you watch it together, the rhythm is a little dragged, and the theme is not very clear. From the beginning and end of the film, it seems that I want to write about the indigenous people, about the original owner of the land, about the "stolen generation", and about racial discrimination. The confessions of Nara interspersed from time to time in the film also illustrate this point. But when the hero and heroine Jin Fengyulu met, there were countless victories in the world. There was no way, there must be love, not to mention the big names of the hero and heroine. That is to say, the love scene that was supposed to be the embellishment took away the light of the racial issue that was supposed to be the main theme of the film, which greatly weakened the epic level of the film, and reduced the film to a very beautiful vase, dazzling but unable to Straight to the heart. Of course, the Chinese translation also shows that the film's selling point is love.
There is one detail in the film that I am very concerned about, which is the last part of going to the missionary island to save the children. The people who went to save were the bull, his black brother, the missionary, the bar owner, three whites and one black. In the end, of course, according to the screenwriter's arrangement, a person must be sacrificed, and I guessed that it was a black person who died with my toes. Thinking about the movies I watched in the past, it seems that this kind of plot is not too small. Anyway, I have the impression that I have never seen a movie where the white people sacrificed to save the black people. You can understand that you want to highlight the sacrifice of black people, but I prefer to believe that even after so many years, white people still discriminate against people of color in their bones, so the screenwriter will always write about black sacrifices and white people as heroes. There are also ridiculous subtitles at the end of the film, and the Prime Minister apologizes. What happens after the apology? The subtitles are not written, the fact is that the Australian government refuses to compensate, and is not willing to pay any money. How can you expect white people to treat people of color equally?
