    The six episodes like the stories of black soldiers and orphans the most, showing sadness in humor and...

    The film uses a fragmented narrative method, with a total of six short stories taking place in six cities and regions in Italy. From six perspectives, it tells how the U.S. military and the local Italian people went from mutual misunderstanding to trying to communicate, and then cooperated with each other and finally lived and died together. The PS screenwriter is quite powerful, and Thomas Mann's son Claus Mann is also a member of the screenwriter. Rossellini seems to like the film more than...

    The trilogy is complete. The simple interlocking of short stories, the natural light in the middle and close range, the subtle emotions of people from every class in every city when the war comes, is very similar to Rome's undefended, the characteristics of new realism, no head and no tail, silent onlookers. But the story itself still has a bit of human warmth and...

    It's not easy to make such a real war movie the year after the end of World War II. The third paragraph and best to watch the other stories are not too...

    #DocumentaryPhoto# After reading it, you can get a general understanding of Italia's life in World War II. Using the method of documentaries (many precious historical materials, analogous to "India"), the marginal stories of six little people, about love, hate, faith, and war, also all It is related to American soldiers. As the second part of the "Post-War Trilogy", Rossellini's profound and humanistic philosophies have almost reached a peak in this film, but this is precisely the reason why...

    What was learned as the war progressed? Soldiers, prostitutes, orphans, monks, guerrillas...everything comes to a screeching halt when all the emotions are gushing out. This is...

    9.5/10. ①Six stories of cultural conflict/friendship focusing on the interaction between the Allies and the Italian people at the end of World War II and thereby expressing the reality of Italy: a group of American soldiers and guide girls chasing the German army; Shoe children; the reunion of an American soldier with a girl who once fell in love at first sight but is now a prostitute; a female nurse in a field hospital searches for the leader of the resistance group but finds him dead in...

    The second of Rossellini's "Post-War Trilogy", I thought it was the best of the trilogy. The six short stories move sequentially in time, covering the entire process of the Allied forces fighting in Italy, and they also move from south to north in space. The deplorable conditions of life during the war are revealed by women searching for their families, orphans forced to steal, prostitutes and guerrillas who cannot escape their fate. In addition, various language and cultural barriers,...

    In fact, all six stories can be very sensational, but the beauty of Rossellini is that the point is reached, and it produces a sense of reality. War does not allow people to stay emotionally too long. The ending is really great. With the turbulent ripples of the river where the Germans drowned partisans, came the voices reporting the victory of World War II in the winter of...

    A creature scorched by the flames of war; an American soldier and an Italian girl, the chat between the two of them was quite touching; juvenile robbers were already rampant in Italy at that time; seeing Hershey's chocolate, sleepy Nothing; "How can they judge us if they don't know the meaning of...

    "War": Life is not a movie, but he uses movies to approach life infinitely

    No matter how many war epics and sensational movies you have seen, you will be moved by Roberto Rossellini's "War of Fire". In fact, the more you watch the grand narratives of war, the more you will be moved by a movie like Fire of War. Because "War" is the flagship of the Italian neo-realism...

    war sentient beings

    As a 1946 film, "War" is still highly regarded by many directors today. As the second part of Rossellini's realism trilogy, the film still continues the real scenes in "Rome, Undefended City", unscripted, non-professional actors, natural light and so on. The footage is still filled with dilapidated...
