The Wind that Shakes the Barley Neutral Evaluation

Ken Loach used the seemingly inattentive composition to make the beginning of the film, and even the unconventional moments in the opening captions were not intended to be a big deal. It can only be said that it fits the style of a seventy-year-old director. There are two shooting scenes in the play. One is that the older brother shot his younger brother, and the other is that the kid betrayed his comrade out of fear and was also shot. These two shootings gave this movie an unparalleled thickness and thickness. The intensity, like giving the audience two big saps, makes us suspicious of the nobility of a just war.  
The film describes a chapter in the bloody history of the British Empire. The British Empire has many similar situations in many other countries, and even Kenya in the 1950s can tell the same story; the director Ken has been interested in Ireland for a long time. This is just a small part of the empire, but the same The story can be told in Bangladesh, Kenya, and Tasmania.

    Think Land and Freedom. We must be overwhelmed by the complexity and brutality of politics. However, the film portrays the British army in such a bad way that it makes one wonder whether it is colonial rule or the lack of freedom under brutal rule that they cannot bear. Some people say that the compromise is just a change of the ruler's accent and flag colors, but are you sure that the result of the struggle is not just a change of the ruler's accent and flag colors?

    The fate of the cruel war is always similar, the filming is very stable, and the group scenes are well filmed, but I just can't like it, it feels very ordinary.
