Life and death
There are three favorite actors in it. The starring is Denzel Washington. He has never acted in a bad movie, but it doesn't matter how classic it is. The vision for the selection of the film is good, and the story is very good.
There is also Meg Ryan, there are many classic love movies. The other is Matt Damon, a talented and extremely rare good man in Hollywood, who doesn't have all the problems of cheating and fancy.
The content of the movie is that during the Iraq War in the 1990s, a female captain was besieged with her troops. Someone in the team wanted to surrender and fired a shot at the officer by mistake. After the rescue came, she was shot in the back of her palace in the abdomen. After the people got on the plane, they said she was dead, and then a row of incendiary bombs passed by, and the undead died.
This is the main line of the movie. There is also a clue that Denzel Washington ordered an attack on his team's tanks during the war, and eventually killed his friend. The premise is that an enemy's tank entered his team, and a misjudgment occurred. This time, he regretted his whole life and was restless.
The boss asked him to investigate whether it was worth honouring this woman, because other people's testimony seemed to say that she was cowardly and terrified when she was surrounded. Everyone insists on their own words, and no one knows the truth.
The film praises the strength of the soldier in the crisis, which needs to be compared with the cowardice of others, and the final outcome of other people is used to set off the tallness of her image.
Whether an award is awarded or not is a perfunctory story. Medals are still useful while people are alive, and their use after death is also to inspire the living.
Medals should not be issued casually, they must be fair and just, at least they must appear to be fair and just. Napoleon said, as long as you give me enough medals, I can conquer the world. The medal represents not only simple decorations, but also reputation and material rewards. Therefore, it cannot be endless, and cannot be given or received at will. Therefore, Napoleon also failed to conquer.
The movie has a standard structure, three-stage, and has everything from beginning to end. The scenes of the battlefield interspersed with memories from time to time are all abrupt bullets, booming.
The truth is not easy to know. When investigating, the soldiers told lies in their favor. In the end, how did the truth come out again? The answer given by the movie is that because he killed his own chief, he put him to death without saving, and the kind of regret tortured them.
This seems a bit of a human nature, and it's not decisive enough. According to my opinion, if it is a real society, most of it will pass under cover.
At the beginning of the investigation, it was not just cover-ups, because they were always forced to ask and regret, so they either committed suicide or told the truth. If there is no investigation, then the truth will be buried forever.
People want a result, but if they don't understand the result, the matter will not go away, and it will always be lingering in the heart. Finally, the actor went to the comrade-in-arms who was killed by him and obtained forgiveness. The real situation may not be so free and easy, but he can't be blocked in this way, so I forgive him. Tears came out, and I kept entangled with worrying things, and it was no longer a problem.
