Anyway, I think it looks nice

Before writing my own film review, I always used to look at how others wrote the film review, maybe this is my lack of opinion.
Some people say that this movie is not as good as "Nanjing Nanjing". I haven't seen "Nanjing Nanjing", so I can't comment on it, but as far as this movie is concerned, I think he moved me and made me want to write about it. A movie review.
Some people say that this film is too ridiculous and does not express the main idea: the truth of the Nanjing Massacre. I don't think so. Since the film is called Rabe's Diary, the main information revealed is: the content of Rabe's diary, and the person Rabe. If you just want to shoot the historical facts of the Nanjing Massacre, you can make a documentary. Films are different from documentaries in that they have certain exaggerated and sensational techniques. For such documentary films, as long as the techniques are not too exaggerated, it is acceptable. , because while telling the audience the truth, he also wants to resonate with the audience. As for the facts, I don’t think what the movie says is necessarily true. It’s still up to you to check the information
about the movie itself. Needless to say, the various tyrannical acts in Japan make me very depressed and worried, but at the same time, Rabe is an inspiring person. Rabe is a German, or a senior leader of the Nazis, and belongs to the same camp as Japan, but he has not lost his humanity for political reasons. Rabe is not a perfect man, when asked to create a safe zone he refused, as a nazi he had every reason to do so, instead he would be betrayed in some way if he accepted the appointment Nazi. But after some struggle, he still accepted the appointment. In my opinion, the reason why he did this is because of his human nature. Whether you are German or Japanese, people who stand on the human side have no nationality. As a foreigner, he was willing to give the greatest help to the Chinese who were being persecuted, to help them survive, to help them escape persecution, and to do his best - when he was appointed. As a man, you can choose not to do it, but since you have chosen, you must do it well and do your best. The same is true for love. It can be seen that Rabe loves his wife very much. I also do my best as a husband.
No matter how real the movie is and how many bugs there are in the plot, I think it is very good, because Rabe is worthy of my respect and learning.
