In fact, not only this film, but also in many Western war movies:
1. For the possibility of being captured by prisoners to extract confessions.
Red Revolutionary Film: I would rather die than surrender, and sacrifice my life for the sake of the doctrine. Confession is a shameful betrayal. No matter how brilliant you have been, everyone gets it and kills it.
Education in Western films (not all): You can only say your name and rank (to facilitate the treatment of prisoners of war), or you can confess after 48 hours (to give your comrades enough time to respond). Even if he confesses, it is not a capital crime, and it is helpless. On the contrary, it is possible to obtain a medal, because it does not deny that he has fought heroically before. Not to mention impossible, the United States has a special POW medal.
2. Torture to extract confessions.
Red Revolutionary Film: It must be shown like this - the enemy is extremely brutal, merciless, implicated in the nine clans, and must rape or molest women, even if he agrees to a conditional deal, he must turn his face and deny it.
Western films: not all of them, but often seen—although brutal torture is used to extract confessions, there are still some elements of reasoning, human nature, and keeping promises.
3. Rules of engagement.
Red Revolutionary Film: We are merciless to the enemy and kill everything, and we absolutely abide by the humaneness of the enemy's women and children, and have no crimes in autumn. We are absolutely standing at the highest moral point. The enemy slaughtered all of us, regardless of gender, age, and age, they were definitely the devil among the devils.
Western films: In most cases, soldiers are sent to prisoner-of-war camps, and spies can be directly executed. Women and children are either killed, released or tried, depending on their interests.
4, the battle process.
Red revolutionary film: In order to highlight the cruelty of war, the battle scenes must be extremely fierce, men, women, young and old charged into the battle, artillery fire, explosions, and bullets were fired indefinitely. At a huge disadvantage, in order to explain why it can last for so long and why it can retreat, it must kill countless enemies, then throw two grenades and successfully retreat. The drama is rampant.
Western films: The battle scenes are relatively real, they are relative. Weakness leads to casualties, and major engagements lead to casualties.
