In fact, in the tenth episode, the rhythm is relatively slow, the plot has no major ups and downs, and there is no vigorous war scene, but it still moved us.
At the beginning of this episode, it was told that Japan surrendered. In fact, at the end of the previous episode, it was mentioned that Japan was attacked by an atomic bomb. Therefore, this episode should be expected to start with Japan's surrender. My feeling, on the one hand, is a breath of relief for those Marine Corps soldiers, finally no more mud, no more sacrifices, no more corpses, because the ninth episode is too depressing; on the other hand, Can't believe it's the end of the war, the show we love?
The end of the war is only the beginning of life. First of all, what everyone has to face is the parting of their comrades. When Snafu got off the bus in New Orleans, Sledge was sleeping. Snafu wanted to wake him up, but in the end, he didn't. The reality is that when they got in touch again, it was 35 years later. After Sledge's memoir was published. Reminds me of the last episode of "Band of Brothers" where winters said he went through the war with his comrades but couldn't enjoy the peace together.
How to devote yourself to post-war life? Like "Band of Brothers", "Pacific" tells the real life of veterans after they are discharged from the army. It turned out that after the war, they discovered that the definition of happiness is to have a normal job, a happy marriage and many children.
Some veterans handle it well, such as Leckie and Sidney, while many continue to suffer the aftermath of the war, such as sledge in the film. Not everyone can get out of it, I have seen with my own eyes the veterans who are insane due to the Korean War living in the current mental hospital. The war has been over for nearly 60 years, and they have to endure the war brought about by the war. Trauma until the end of life.
When I was young, I liked to watch war movies, because children liked the lively plots in war movies and rejoiced when the bad guys were killed. When I grew up, I realized that "no war is not ugly". "The Pacific" also succeeded in expressing this, however, patriotism, fighting for a better life, and friendship between comrades in war, these are all beautiful, just like "The Pacific", a series of excellent quality, bring us enjoyment.
"The Pacific" is over, the mood is hard to calm down!
