"The Devil Is Coming" is a good movie with great connotation! Return to human nature, let people wake up! There are many places in the film that are very connotative, and I will give you a few points to analyze. At the beginning of the film, accompanied by the music played by the drum band, a group of devils arrogantly walked on the country road, how majestic! The leading devil officer said to the Chinese children, "Who wants to be my good boy? Divide the candy, come and come!" You can imagine how many people in today's society are waiting for others to reward them with candy. 'Good boy'? The film is actually telling you such a truth. That's how people are. Only the real strong can stand on the ground under your feet. Weak and submission can only wait forever for others to reward you with candy. Immediately afterwards, a "me" with a gun brought two devils to the villager Ma Dasan. Who is this "me" with a gun? There is no explanation in the film, but there is no doubt that this "I" is the strong one. "I" had a gun in his hand and pointed at Ma Dasan's head with a snatch. "I" did whatever Ma Dasan said, and did not dare to disobey at all. And who is the "I" in the film? In fact, "I" is alluding to everyone in our life. In the film, many villagers are also asking who is this "I"? This is actually a torture of the hearts of every audience. Everyone is wondering who this "I" is? But no one thought that this "I" is actually the self in life! Everyone in life can be this "me", but to be this "me" you have to make yourself stronger. The film also tells you a truth, the strong will always dominate, and the weak will always be slaughtered; this is the law of nature. Later, a key character appeared in the film, an old man with a disability in his legs and feet and no front teeth. His lines were repeated over and over in those two sentences, one of which was "I will kill them with one hand and one hand, and bury them in a pit!" It seems that the appearance of this old man is very funny, but if you understand it in this way, it is a big mistake! In fact, this old man is the soul of the whole film! Some people will say that there is no reason to speak, good! Then let's analyze and analyze. In the film, when the devils started to slaughter the villagers, this old man appeared again. He had difficulty in his legs and feet to get the gun hanging on the beam. His purpose has always been very clear, that is to kill the devils. , has not changed from beginning to end, and has not succumbed in the slightest because of physical age and physical disability. He should be the weakest among this group of villagers, right? After that, the most classic scene appeared. After he fired a shot at the devil, a group of Japanese soldiers surrounded the old man. He really grabbed the neck of a devil with his hands. The connotation scene arrived, and the devil began to cut the old man with a knife. You can count your hands, how many knives did you cut in total? A full six knives! It only takes one knife to chop off the head, why does it take six knifes to chop off the hand of a weak old man with osteoporosis? This is another metaphor in the film, because the old man's "bones are hard!" In China, to describe a person who is upright and unyielding, it is said that this person has "hard bones!" It is too suitable to describe this old man. . And this old man is in stark contrast to the group of men in the village who are just prime-aged and timid. A sick old man can only be subdued with so many devils together. China has a large population. If everyone is like this, who would dare to bully China? This tells us another truth, the Chinese are more useless and less hard-boiled! When the people are strong, the country is strong, and most people need to change! There is also a stark contrast between the devils Hanaya Kozaburo and Ma Dasan in the film, which is also a very important metaphor in the film. In the film, Hanaya Kozaburo has been resisting since he came out of the sack and was able to speak. Liu only started begging for mercy when he stabbed him but didn't kill him. From the very beginning, Ma Dasan would only compromise, compromise and compromise, until the devil finally slaughtered the village before he began to resist. This is the contrast between the strong and the weak. In fact, all the strengths and weaknesses are only in your heart! The strong always start to do what they can do to the extreme, and in the end there is no way to compromise; the weak always compromise at the beginning, and finally start to do things with all their strength when they are forced to do nothing. In fact, no one is weak, it just depends on whether you consider yourself strong or weak. Ma Dasan killed so many devils by the last person. If everyone in China started out like Ma Dasan did at the end, would the Japanese devils be able to fight in? To put it another way, the Japanese regarded themselves as strong from the very beginning, like Hanaya Kosaburo, so they were able to do evil on Chinese soil for so long. This tells me another truth, the strong are always forced to give in before they compromise, and the weak are always forced to resist before they are forced! In fact, everyone can be a strong person, the key depends on how you choose! There are also two devils in the film talking about how to get chicken from the Chinese, which is also a metaphor in the film. A devil tells another devil that if you are polite and polite to the Chinese, you will never eat chicken. You have to be hard on them and be hard on them! You can only eat chicken when they think you are better than them and they are afraid of you. The truth told to me here is that your politeness to the enemy will not replace his respect for you. He will only treat you as a weak person and eat your chicken forever! Jiang Wen said in the interview: "I want to tell the Japanese audience through this film: you have to truly face this history, and don't try to deny it. I also want to warn the Chinese audience: in the face of the wicked, we can't report it for no reason. Be kind. Facing the facts that have already happened, both Chinese and Japanese should have a correct understanding in order to prevent this from happening again."
