The pusher of the torrent of the times - Comments on "Assembly"

I am very grateful to Feng Xiaogang for making "Assembly" which is different from the previous civil war films. From the battle scene at the beginning of the film, I can feel the shooting method very strongly this time, abandoning the heroic rendering color, and restoring it more realistically. Given the state of the characters at the time of the battle, the "hero" is not "afraid of death and incapable of being beaten to death", but clearly knows that he will lose his life, relatives and loved ones, and still fight for the victory of the revolution. Feng Dao endowed the "hero" with a more real and human connotation.
Because people are always afraid of death. This is human instinct, and it is the instinctive response of a living being to protect itself. At the moment of losing life, fear can overcome all so-called "heroism".
In the story of "The Assembly Number That Never Blows", which is spread out with Guzidi as the main line, many experts and netizens have published various movie reviews in all aspects, and they all have a deeper understanding than I do about movies. The judgment of the content is no longer listed. Just to mention one item that was not mentioned in the reviews I read, and tell me my thoughts.

That is, under the background of the premise of the times, people have no choice and spare no effort to struggle in the direction of seeing the future. No matter how well-informed you are, even if you know that China will be peaceful in a few years, in that era, in an era of turbulent wars, the torrent of the era has a pair of hands that push you to resist the gun, even if you don’t know the meaning of war at all, let alone. Where is the future.
It is an excellent selling point to switch to literary and artistic themes. Every tear-jerking scene in "Assembly" is also based on the helpless emotion of "people are driven away by the times". The art is processed into tragic and tragic scenes, which shock and resonate with the audience.
A social unit is composed of people, so the era can be simply explained as: it is composed of time plus people. People are pushed by the times, and at the same time, the decisions of the times are made by people, not gods or ghosts. I think it's a bit "people eat people" (Lu Xun's Diary of a Madman).
So, friends, don't deliberately pick on the bugs of the movie. Because movies are also made by people, people always make mistakes. I feel that the weapons of war, costumes and props of "Assembly", and the fighting form and literacy of the actors are better than the setting of the domestic war of resistance and civil war, and it is obviously more military specialization.
Moreover, the movie can't be made into "everyone died in battle" or "failed to restore the title of martyr" for his comrades after the founding of Guzidi. Missing" martyr. Movies are also being pushed away by the "big hand" nowadays.
The above are my brief thoughts on the theme of "Assembly" on the background of the times. We may be able to realize from this film that the theme of war cannot live under the "unkillable heroism". The history of the Chinese Communist Party and the Kuomintang lies in the There, have we been able to look at this history without subjectivity? Whether it is a Communist soldier or a Kuomintang soldier, they were all introduced by the times. This was the case during the Cultural Revolution, and it is the same with us now.
Every Chinese should read "Assembly". He tells you the story of history and the story of the heroes of the country as much as possible in the context of the current era. They are in a desperate situation and have a spirit of hope, which is exactly what each of us People who feel pressure in all aspects need to learn and learn.
