Or as the old saying goes: being poor and starving is not communism. This film can be paired with the South Korean film "Escape from the North". However, when the poor in a country can only find food from the rubbish heap, but the rich can feed their dogs with chicken legs, then it is natural for the poor to rebel and kill the rich. The West has a completely different...

Looked at Angelina Jolie in awe. A very restrained film, shot entirely from the perspective of a little girl, to capture the horror. This kind of absurd totalitarian socialism is similar in every corner of the world. It treats people as slaves, under the slogan of communism, ideals, and equality for all, to rule more cruelly than slave society. Unify thinking, dress, work together like a concentration camp, cultivate children's hatred, practice martial arts, and create...

One of the worst Khmer Rouge movies I've ever seen. Julie's truth has obvious shortcomings as a director and screenwriter. The rhythm and expression are very amateur, and you can clearly see that she couldn't give up this and that and finally collapsed. Unable to handle the adaptation of the original work well, what it presents is more like the daily life of a running account. Taking emotions as the first priority, everything was spent groggy in a sloppy, unpulsed...

68/100 Although there is no one-tenth of the evil of the Khmer Rouge regime, the scheduling and photography of this film at least reflect the strength of Angelina Jolie as a director. Perhaps because the 5-year-old protagonist Loung was narrating all this (and de-whitening) with vague memories, the story is weak and lacks a straightforward plot, which is a pity for this...

Under totalitarian rule, helpless, powerless, you are nothing!
The most impressive thing about this film is the contrast. The opening pop songs and the Honggao occupation of Phnom Penh are particularly distinctive. Then, the little girl's various fantasy hallucinations are also contrasted with what she experienced at that time. In particular, there was a...

to be fair
I don’t understand Cambodian history, but Angelina Jolie used the lens to take her family’s experiences during the Khmer Rouge rule as clues, and showed us the devastation of ** on innocent people from the perspective of a little girl. There will be a horizontal association of ZG in the movie,...

Propoganda Announcer: It's better to make a mistake and kill an innocent person than to leave an enemy alive.

Loung Ung: What happens when people die?
Older Girl: At first they think they're sleeping peacefully, not knowing they are dead. They sleep for three days. And then on the third day, they wake up. That's when they realize they are dead. They walk to a river, wash the dirt from their bodies, and start their journey to heaven to reincarnate.
Loung Ung: Where do they go?
Older Girl: I don't know.
Loung Ung: I hope Keav won't have to come back here.
