Soybean oil everyone, I just went to the theater to watch it once. If there are any details I missed, please leave me a message and continue to improve this story together.
"One Week" Timeline
01 From the city to the seaside
The movie begins. Tommy was looking for cigarettes in the city, and was chased by the enemy to the beach. Then he was rescued by his own British soldiers, and he walked to the beach alone and lined up, waiting to get on the boat.
02Meet the French
A Frenchman who doesn't know his name, no English lines are spoken throughout the film. The body of an Englishman was found and buried, and then the nameplate of the deceased was put on, "Gibson". At this time, Tommy ran from the city and met the Frenchman "Gibson" who buried the body. Tommy thought that "Gibson" was a good brother with affection and righteousness, so the two came together. However, in order to survive, any trick on the battlefield has to be used. When the two encountered an unattended stretcher, they carried them onto the ship that transported the wounded. Unfortunately, the captain chased them down, and the two secretly hung on the wooden beams under the pier. Wait for the next boat to come. The two overheard the conversation between Commander Bolton of the Navy and Colonel Winnett of the Army, that 300,000 people could only transport 30,000 people, indicating that the military had not yet thought of requisitioning civilian ships at this time, or this plan did not allow the prisoners to be transported. Sleepy soldiers know.
03 Two people increased to "threesome"
The two were on the beam, and before the next ship was ready, the ship carrying the wounded was sunk by torpedoes. The two rescued the third man, Alex, who fell from the boat carrying the wounded. Tommy and "Gibson", deliberately getting wet in the water, pretended to be highlanders. Then the three of them were given priority to get on the big rescue ship that left in the next search.
04 The French save everyone
It was already dark, and the three of them successfully boarded the big rescue boat. After the French "Gibson" got on the big rescue boat, in the corridor outside the boat, he saw many people who couldn't walk, sitting on the boat floating on the dark water. (This includes our other protagonist, the Frightened Soldier, which will be discussed in the next chapter.) And Tommy and Alex, get into the boat and eat jam toast. The two remembered that "Gibson" didn't come in because they were afraid of drowning after the boat capsized, so they walked quietly to the escape door. Sure enough, the big rescue ship was sunk by the enemy again, and the escape door could not be opened. When the people in the ship were about to drown, the French opened them and saved everyone. (French guy is good, in fact his kindness couldn't save him in the end, let him continue for a second, heartbroken)
05 The frightened soldier does not let the trio get on the boat
In the darkness, most of the people in the big rescue boat drowned. And the soldiers who can only float forward in the small boat without getting on the big rescue boat are very lucky. Among them, frightened soldiers. According to the addition of Douyou "Dart New Innovation", this frightened soldier was also one of the poor brothers who were blown into the water after boarding the first wounded transport ship. Only the trio got on the second boat. He could only get on the boat. After Tommy and Alex were rescued by the French, they swam to the frightened soldier, but the frightened soldier refused to board the boat because the boat could not carry too many people. The French managed to get into a small boat, then threw a rope for Tommy and Alex and dragged them back to shore. The trio had their ups and downs, but eventually they got together again, and the three ate some canned stuff or something. From their point of view, the frightened soldier swam to the mutilation of a plane at sea. (This is also the easiest place to watch the chaos. The frightened soldier is also the first person saved by old man Dawson in the later chapters. How did he float farthest from the coast by himself, and how was the old man first discovered Yes, there is no close-up introduction in the movie. The director chose the well-known Cillian Murphy to play this person, and he also hoped that he would remind the audience to connect the "week" and "day" timelines. The director once praised the surprise Soldier actor, as good as the Joker in "Batman")
06Aboard the Dutchman's Fishing Boat
Finish eating canned food. The three encounter a group that is going to wait for the high tide on a fishing boat that had run aground the night before. Fishing boats are located in enemy territory and are more dangerous. But the three still took the risk and followed. After entering the fishing boat, the captain, the Dutchman, came in. Then the enemy also saw the fishing boat and used the fishing boat as a target to practice shooting. Finally, the tide came. Unfortunately, the ship sank because of a leak. Frenchman "Gibson" also drowned because he didn't understand English, and finally gave a close-up of reaching out. The trio became a duo, and they both floated on the water. The duo, who did not understand the situation, climbed onto a destroyer that was about to sink. But the destroyer leaked, and they were full of gasoline. (This is an important node connecting the old man in the "One Day Timeline", please remember)
"One Day" Timeline
07 The Old Man's Moonstone
In the face of the enemy's torpedoes, the British government's strategy of transporting soldiers by large ships could not work, so it launched civil forces to levy small ships to transport crews. The old man, Mr. Dawson, felt that the procedure was too slow. And he is old and strong, and he wants to save people in a coquettish manner. With his son Pete, he drove the boat without authorization, and rushed to the forefront alone to save people. George, the bereaved boy who worked on this ship, also joined the patriotic rescue movement in high spirits. Dawson, the old man, talked about the planes represented by the sounds of different engines all the way, and all the way he felt the awesomeness of the British domestic Rolls-Royce. (It is reminded here that the previous sunken ships were all torpedoes. From then on, the sunken ships are mainly enemy planes, and it is also an important symbol to distinguish between "one day" and "one hour" timeline)
08Frightened soldier kills George by mistake
The frightened soldier was the only one who was furthest from the shoreline, but unfortunately all the crew members on his boat died. The ghost knows what he's managing, and if you can't make up your mind, you can watch "The Fantasy Drift of Young Pi". The frightened soldier, who was alone at sea, was rescued by the old man Mr. Dawson, who was driving the Moonstone. This was the first person the old man saved. The frightened soldier with a broken heart insisted not to go back to save people, and competed with the old man for the steering wheel. However, the frightened soldiers mistakenly killed George, the mourned boy aboard the Moonstone. He was really mourning. His family thought he was incompetent since he was a child, and he was accidentally killed by frightened soldiers of his own country. (Some people say that he was the old man who was the first to rescue a German pilot. I said that I felt the same way as you, and I was also confused at the time. My friends and I who watched the movie together agreed that they were twins, one was in the British Army, and the other was twins. After being a German pilot, there should be a bloody confession link. However, the director also edited together "Frightened Soldier Kills George by Manslaughter" and "Frightened Soldier Don't Let the Trio Get on the Boat", just to tell you the order of narration I used It's out of sequence, as if I heard the director's narration, audience friends, I hope you enjoy the pleasure of sorting out the messy plot.)
"One Hour" Timeline
09 The pilot departs
The British government requisitioned civilian cruise ships to rescue people, and also sent three planes to destroy all enemy planes before the cruise ships arrived. (The whole film seems to only see two pairs of eyes, I always thought it was two pilots. Why not use three pilots, I guess it may be that, the audience will see more confusion. Our face mask professional Tom Hardy plays the pilot Farrell. Why is it called a face mask professional? I put two stills from "Mad Max" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" for everyone to feel)
With the cooperation of the two pilots, the flight was successful several times. At this time, the destroyers sent by the United Kingdom are simply too bad (I really want to throw them a few copies of "How to Fight a Plane"). Not only did the destroyer fail to hit the plane, but it was also sunk by the enemy's plane. What's more terrifying is that the destroyer leaked oil, and the water was full of British soldiers covered with oil. (This connects the two protagonists in the previous week's timeline) Pilot Collins's plane was forced into the ground because of the hit. However, the sunroof glass of his own plane could not be opened, and he was about to drown.
10 old man saves the pilot
After seeing the plane of his own country forced to land, the old man disregarded his son's objection and resolutely went to be the pilot. In the end, the pilot Collins, who was trapped in the cabin, was also successfully rescued by the old man Mr. Dawson. (In the movie, Collins' crash landing was shown twice. The first time was described from the perspective of "professional covering his face" Farrell. He could only vaguely see that Collins landed successfully, but did not see being flooded. The second time was Described from the perspective of Collins himself, it specifically describes the process of being trapped in the water and being rescued by Mr. Dawson. This is the connection point between the "one-day timeline" and "one-hour timeline" given by the director, and it is a very important The logo. When I watched it in the movie theater, my friends and I couldn't believe that pilot Collins had a twin brother who was also a pilot, and the twins landed twice each. We could only recognize that the director was messing with the script. The result in the future. Feel the deep malice of the director again.) At this time, the old man Mr. Dawson continued to drive the ship to the vicinity of the oil-spilling destroyer to save people. And the last plane of the enemy, seeing the Moonstone of the old man Mr. Dawson, was ready to shoot all the people on board. The old man planned to hold his troops and wait for the enemy plane to dive towards them, and suddenly launch the ship to prevent the plane from hitting him. To sum up, Mr. Dawson now has on board: frightened soldiers + pilot Collins + fallen soldiers from destroyers. This just shows that it is very meaningful that Mr. Dawson left the port in time without authorization. But Mr. Dawson was still not satisfied and continued to save people.
11 The pilot's final rescue
After Collins was forced to land, only Farrell was left, but there was one last enemy plane left. But his plane was out of fuel, so he had to start the spare fuel tank. The last enemy plane was being attracted by the old man Mr. Dawson's ship. Farrell grabbed the neutral and annihilated it in one fell swoop. At this time the soldiers at sea were cheering. Because the last enemy plane was destroyed, they could safely go home by civilian boat. And Farrell ran out of spare fuel and let the plane taxi to the enemy's coastal area. He tactfully burned the plane and successfully defended his country's Rolls-Royce engine technology. It was finally taken away by the enemy. What I want to face him is the severe torture of the enemy, but our "face covering professional" will never tell half a secret that is not good for me. The head can be cut off, the blood can be shed, and the motherland cannot be lost. (This extra scene has been added too much, sorry)
12 The old man saves people in the fire
The last enemy plane shot down by Farrell, the "professional covering face", did not directly damage the old man Mr. Dawson's ship, but flew towards the oil next to the old man, and I was busy saving the oil in the leaked oil. Soldier. Once the oil is ignited, everyone will be burned to death. The soldiers in this pile of oil include our protagonist Tommy and Alex who came out of the water. (The protagonist is really possessed by Conan. Where there are many dead people, they are really anxious.) But the old man, Mr. Dawson and his son, successfully came out of our two halo protagonists, Tommy and Alex.
13 Read the newspaper on the train
The enemy planes were also destroyed. The old man's boat is almost full and ready to go home. Civilian ships solicited by the British government have also arrived one after another. The naval commander and army colonel on the shore were moved to tears. After a night of transport, everyone was transported away, except for a sloppy little soldier who slept. Little Soldier and Colonel Winnett, when they were arranged together on the last ship. Commander Bolton said he would arrange for the French to retreat. (Doubt this piece is really not washing the ground for Bolton?) On the other side, all civilian ships have been transporting 300,000 soldiers one after another. Tommy and Alex also successfully arrived on the old man's boat. There were about 50 people on the old man's boat. Tommy and Alex got on a train and slept on the train all night. The news in the newspapers the next day was all praise for the spirit of Dunkirk, and public opinion did not attack the failure of the British fighters. The movie is over.
say something
The director deconstructed and spliced this simple story into a script. Although the low times and high tides of the three stories have been subtly edited together, it looks like the triple climax that happened to my colleagues. But have you ever thought about the feeling of being stunned by the audience in order to preserve the suspense? It should be because I am too old to watch movies without focusing on suspense and starting to focus on dramas. That kind of ordinary, simple tension, and the shock it brings are more suitable for us empty nesters born in the 1990s.
