fooled and forgotten

I don't know why so many people praised "The Name" and disparaged "Assembly", I just know that good movies can completely immerse me in and not so good movies sometimes make my mind jump out of the screen involuntarily. This time, the former is like "Assembly Number", and the latter is like "Vote for Name".
Chen Kexin has always been my favorite director, but "The Name" is far less successful than "If Love". Two years ago, "If Love" let me see the tear between love and reality, the snowflakes flying all over the northern land, and the feeling of love being stripped away in a foreign land. To be honest, this is more disturbing than the battlefield killing in "Famous Name". I feel cruel. At that time, although the protagonist Xiaoyu was selfish, her plight represented the common spiritual plight of most people. She was tragic because she could not get rid of her character tragedy. Pang Qingyun, on the contrary, his value as the protagonist was completely overshadowed by his own moral flaws, including his indifference to life, his betrayal of integrity, selfishness and ruthlessness that hurt others and even killed his brother. It has always been said that "Vote for a Name" reflects the ugliness of human nature and the helplessness of human beings in the face of fate. This kind of comment is originally very × ×, this is a universal truth, not to mention the film on this issue. Really superficial. Chen Kexin's strength has always been in structure, but for such a big subject, he really misses the subject.
Now let's talk about "Assembly". We have to admit that the film may have made many unavoidable changes in order to pass the radio and television censorship. Under these changes, we also know what the ending should be in reality. I believe that from the very beginning of the movie, most of the audience knew that the rallying call never rang. People are fooled and sacrificed in this way. Not only that, but the victims have no names. Even if there is a tombstone, the three characters of Anonymous are engraved on the tombstone, and its value is two hundred kilograms of millet. One person = 200 kilograms of millet. When you see this formula, do you feel familiar, and do you remember that in the history textbook of junior high school, one slave = 5 horses. Individuals in China have no names since ancient times. They have been fooled, sacrificed, and forgotten. The rulers have always shouted "we, we, collective, collective", behind which is a complete contempt for the individual life.
Heroes are created, they are lucky enough to be chosen, they are heroes, and more, they are nameless victims. The victims pricked up their ears to the death of the rallying horn that never sounded.
Not to mention imitating foreign war scenes, the war scenes are just to show the insignificance and powerlessness of people on the battlefield. Because of these scenes, when the "leaders" of a certain division of a certain army in Nakano were discussing the punishment of millet land, It was especially ridiculous. We saw Hu Jun's disgraceful face at that time. He was eating with big mouthfuls as if it had nothing to do with him at all. He knew that he had nothing to say with these people, but even so, he still did it in the end. After a victim, he did not let Gu Zidi hear the rallying call, and he himself did not hear the rallying call in the final battle. Everyone became cannon fodder, and everyone was cannon fodder.
Human beings are ridiculous, they always believe in the so-called order. Better yet, treat fantasy as belief. Before the final battle, Professor Wiseman and Estelle, the final boss in "Trails of the Sky", had the following dialogue:
Professor: "There is not enough unity between people."
Estelle: "Unity is strength."
Professor : "But people are not united enough."
Estelle: "The power of unity is infinite."
Professor: "But if people are not united enough, where can the strength come from?"
Estelle : "The most powerful force is love."
Professor: "..."
Well, even if we know that Professor Wiseman is the ultimate boss, we can't help but worry about Estelle, who is a little naive and innocent. Slogans are useless. "Wu Qingyuan" is a very shocking film I watched last year. Tian Zhuangzhuang did not shape Wu Qingyuan from his superb chess skills and so-called great personality, but showed Wu Qingyuan's confusion and cowardice, even in the chess world. The undefeated Wu Qingyuan, who created the era of "Wu Qingyuan" in the chess world, also once followed a cult. He pursued the truth all his life, but after many unsuccessful attempts, he was even lost for a while under the control of the cult. The marionette, who became the "godmother", took several attempts to escape the cult's clutches. The scene of their ascetic trekking on the coast of Japan made me constantly think of the situation in "The Seventh Seal" where the devil took everyone away. Will the end of their trek be heaven or hell?
Well, needless to say others, maybe we are all cannon fodder.
