Kubrick can always strip the nakedness of human nature, as if you are in it, ruthless, in a dark corner, you have witnessed everything, you follow the plot, and you can't help thinking, if it were me, it would be the same.
What was the last straw that broke Bill? Is it natural oppression, mind control, torture of dignity, or disgust by comrades-in-arms? Mostly yes, but more of a self-isolation and incomprehensible despair when asking for help, right? (misunderstood by friends as material when asking for help) 7.62mm, copper casing, he took the gun as his mate, and a normal soldier just took orders as orders, not truth, but he did, So he had a world of shit and got deeper and deeper.
"Clown" also deeply embodies the contradictions of human beings, and he knows it, so he half-deprecated and half-smugly wrote "born to kill" on his hat, wearing a peace badge on the side, he did not believe in the existence of the Virgin Mary, but After shouting and praying to God countless times, he tried to help Bill, but at night he beat Bill for the sake of venting his anger, not to stop him. He went to the back of the comfortable army newsgroup, but always wanted to go to the dangerous front war correspondent. The most exciting thing is that when he finally faced the female sniper, the peace badge was faded out. In the light, he solemnly said that he was a cold man, the coldness of F***, obviously he was right, he ended her Because she was an enemy, he couldn't save him, he could only let her enter the arms of death as soon as possible, even though he had more burdens in his heart in the end.
I think the most exciting part of the whole film is that the reporters interviewed the soldiers. They were all smiling faces. People didn't think about how many lives were lost from their own hands and how many comrades were killed by the enemy. Say kill them. Although they don't know the meaning, they are still complaining about the Vietnamese people who don't want to enter the "Noah's Ark" they brought, in the name of freedom. Cold pen satire, without evaluation, but it reflects the rationality of this absurdity and lie.
Although I am amused by the catchy slogans of the US military and the daily military anthems, I remember watching "My Fair Lady" in which the gentleman once said to the flower girl: "A woman who makes such a terrible and terrible sound has no right to be anywhere— — also have no right to live. Remember you are a human being with a soul, God gave you the gift of speaking, your native language is the language of Shakespeare, Milton, and the Bible, don’t sit there like a grumpy dove hum hum hum."
Once again, I realized the mystery of the flexibility and extension of this language.
