Not to mention the drama, nothing to watch. Books go round and round and play hide-and-seek with you. What about movies? After I watched it, I realized that the movie told a different story. Except the names are basically the same, everything else is out of shape. In order to make the audience not as bothered as reading a book, black and white, right and wrong are all simply distinguished. This is one of the common benefits of commercial films.
If you read the irony and gloom in the book, there are only the beliefs and ideals of the main theme left in the film—noble, dedicated, selfless beliefs and ideals, and the professional revolutionaries and underground parties who execute them.
I have to admit that such revisions have seized the moral high ground - resistance to Japan is always right. The efforts and struggles for the anti-Japanese war are worthy of praise in any case. And the torture that has been hyped in advance is not a big deal at all, and moviegoers who are used to seeing zombies, perverts and murderers have long since taken it easy. Putting it here only makes people feel that it is not easy for the underground party - both physical and psychological qualities must be good, otherwise one can't bear it and it will become a disaster for others and oneself.
The information in the book was passed on by GMD. Of course, in the movie, this credit was not allowed to fall into the hands of the friendly army. Every hand and foot were done by our own people. The friendly army in the book has become a puppet army, and its role is to confuse the public and to be moved and admired by my underground party. In addition, as the bearer of the suicide note, many years later, I have not been let go, and with tears, I accepted the ideological education of my outstanding party members who regard death as their home, and thus better understand the magic weapon of our party that is invincible and invincible - faith, or faith.
I would like to praise Zhou Xun's acting skills here. The paranoid, gloomy and scheming underground party image in the book has been completely subverted by her. After she was exposed, she cried aggrievedly. The ruthless is completely out of professional needs and self-protection. Viewers melted easily by her weakness - me included. Even the people who were framed by her forgave her, not only forgiving, but also crying together, not only crying, but also promising to help her complete the plan. Weakness can indeed overcome strength, as Lao Tzu said long ago.
As for the rest of the cast, Indah couldn't have been better. Su Youpeng was also a little surprised. Wang Zhiwen has always been consummate and confident. The problem is that he has too much bamboo in his chest, which makes Huang Xiaoming seem to have an empty stomach and an empty mind. He only has a handsome appearance and ambition. Zhang Hanyu's face is stiff and full of righteousness, more like the Communist Party than the Communist Party. If the Japanese army has watched countless domestic war movies, they must know the true identity of this person - so can it, only the Communist Party. It's a pity that they don't seem to like watching theme movies very much.
The biggest advantage of this film is that it is clear in black and white, and pays more attention to the story skills. There are foreshadowings in the front and explanations in the back, and the front and back echoes make the story round. The biggest flaw is, of course, the information transmission process - after a little scrutiny, I know how unreliable it is that a person who is insane can hum enough to transmit clear information. Even if he had this ability, he would have to know in advance which hospital he was sent to, who the nurse on duty was, and then install his comrades to receive information.
As for the information sewn on the clothes, it's even more bizarre - people were shot to death, if the body was returned, it would have to be cleaned up, right? At this time, the first thing to throw away is underwear, and it is estimated that it will be disposed of immediately.
I'm serious again. Commercial films can't be viewed this way, and they're not meant to last forever. I personally think that compared to the obscurity and gloom of the book, this movie can be regarded as a popular domestic drama. It is a sincere domestic drama, but it is not the same thing as the book, it just happens to have the same name and surname.
