The male protagonist in the film, Vasily Zaitsev, is undoubtedly the epitome of a propaganda model in the post-authoritarian era of the Soviet Union. No matter how good he is. After the Great Purge, 70% of the founding fathers were executed by Stalin for treason, and 13 commanders of 15 army groups were executed, including the founding fathers, inventors of the Katyusha artillery, jet rocket experts, physicists, natural scholars Waiting for a large number of outstanding talents, which led to the incompetence after the Great Purge, and the incompetent attack with Nazi Germany entered the staff planning. After the purge of the Soviet Red Army, no matter from the decision-making level or the grass-roots level, if there is a slightly prominent fighter, the decision-making level will greatly promote it.

    It feels very good, and it reveals the good and evil of human nature, the feelings between comrades-in-arms, the feelings between brothers, and the feelings between lovers, all of which are thought-provoking. The movie showed the cruelty of war, and unexpectedly discovered that the cruelty of war is not only on both sides of the enemy, but also in the same camp. The Soviets even pointed their guns at the deserters. . . It's cruel; a good friend can pretend to be treason for a woman. . . These should all be reflections on human nature~
