In the first fifteen seconds, an American flag, noisy human voices, followed by a "stand at attention" password, a small figure rose from the lower border in the middle of the frame. The image processing refers to unusual proportions and changes in depth relationships, enhancing the three-dimensional illusion, which is the highest level of political propaganda. Only a dozen shots have used visual language to shape the image of Patton: majestic uniforms, breeches, riding boots, steel helmets, white eyebrows, a dazzling array of medals, wedding rings, whips that symbolize military discipline, ivory-handled pistols, bright and bright Eyes, four-star general. Then took four steps forward, stood still, saluted, and sounded the flag-raising bugle of the U.S. Army. The epic is the crown of glory that belongs to heroic characters or major events. If it is mentioned in the light and shadow, only real wars and illusory myths can take its crown. The ever-changing geographical location always reminds the viewers of the vastness of the world, the numerous characters appearing and intertwined with the intricate interest relationships, and the involuntary fate of the characters in the background is even more heart-stopping and thrilling. The figure of a soldier protects the surviving life with a broken but flying cloak. From the perspective of God, only gunpowder and blood cannot be let down. History is icy numbers and ruthless ruins, gray is its constant theme, the mother of the earth changes its shape with mud, the gods of wind, rain and thunder roar to greet each other, but only one can give history color: in the yellow Lying and stealing on the land, fighting bravely against the icy blue waves, and planting green vegetables and fruits to feast on your stomach. People give the history of flesh and blood without forgetting the tactile sense of pain. People in the past will feel deafening when they only exist in the text. Once they are active on the screen, people will be shocked every time, not only those who know it later. Evil also includes the truest and purest goodness, and more, it is the adherence to the belief. Every point of perseverance must be repaid with tenfold bitterness. This is a debt owed by people to history. A good epic film should be able to show both the macroscopic pattern and the characters' personalities. It has both the wisdom of the general public and the prophecy of a heroic general. Strong individualism is the main theme of epic films, either impassioned or proud and tenacious. Because of different people, different epic films have their own unique charm.
