The best attitude towards history is not to change it.

I watched it on cctv8 when I was a child. Because there are too many characters and no absolute protagonist, it caused severe face blindness, so I didn't leave a deep impression. It took another three days to watch it, and I was completely shocked by the plot.

The film tells the main experience of Company E, 2nd Battalion, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, from recruit training to the final surrender of Japan. It truly restores the history, from equipment to every plot and detail. The focus is not on the progress of the war, but on every soldier, every low-level officer, they fear war, but they do not back down in the face of difficulties. There is no so-called superhero tearing devils here. There are only mission briefings assigned one after another. In terms of history, it is the Normandy landing, the Allied counterattack on the European continent, and for Company E, it is the destruction of artillery positions after the airborne assembly. ; to history, it was Operation Market Garden, to E Company, a costly occupation and retreat; to history, it was the Battle of the Ardennes, and to E Company, it was holding fast in the freezing Bastogne Forest. position. The progress of the war is often only a few lines of subtitles at the end of the film, but the death figures at the end of each episode are moving.

A piece of Beethoven, I thought the war would ease, after all, it survived the oppressive Battle of the Ardennes, but I didn't expect to usher in a Nazi concentration camp that recreated the original scene, so heavy that I couldn't breathe. In the end, the Nazis surrendered, but the deaths continued. These soldiers, who had been in the army for three years and fought on the bloody frontline for more than a year, could not be discharged because of insufficient points, and were waiting for the next dispatch.

Finally, the words used to raise the bar were uttered by the German generals. The producer has a great pattern. This sentence is also said to everyone who has fought for the motherland in this human catastrophe.

It's been a long war, and a hard one,
You fought bravely and proudly for your country,
You are an extraordinary group,
closely related to each other,
Such friendship exists only in battle,
between brothers,
shared use of foxholes,
Support each other when they need it most,
You have seen death,
endure hardship together,
I am proud to serve with each of you,
You have the right to live a happy and peaceful life forever.

    It's unique in TV series shooting to this level!

    Tribute to those who struggle for a better life! Although it came to Mr. Tang [code here]... No one would dislike Winters. His and Nix's love overflows the ruthlessness of the screen war and sometimes it is not a medal to explain. Yes, are they on the battlefield to get the above praise? The director also tried his best to restore the cruel human weakness and valuables of the war itself. Finally, from expelling Invaders to becoming Invaders, maybe it is the realistic irony of the director and screenwriter--2018.9.29 ---------- I'm the dividing line for the second time --------- Find the original Chinese version, while reading the book, watching the TV series again. In terms of filming, it is indeed a long way from the mainland's anti-Japanese drama. This is still a drama in 2001. Finally, You deserve long and happy lives of peace. --2018.10.22

Band of Brothers quotes

  • Richard Winters: [about Nixon's drinking] Nix, what are you going to do in battle?

    Cpt. Nixon: Oh, I have every confidence in my scrounging abilities, and I have a case of Vat 69 hidden in your footlocker.

    Richard Winters: [chuckles, thinks it's a joke. Pauses, realizes that he's not kidding] Really?

    Cpt. Nixon: Oh, yeah.

  • David Webster: "They got me". You believe that? You believe I said that?
