    #Soldiers are also people# Do you need to sacrifice 75% of the lives of the entire regiment for a so-called mound? In the eyes of the general those are just numbers. In the eyes of the captain, it is indeed a living life. The failure of a war cannot habitually be attributed to the soldiers being uncouth. Is true patriotism a senseless death for the country? Is true patriotism just being cannon...

    Cold and oppressive, we can't hold on any longer. Born in a time of peace, it may be difficult for us to understand the human struggle of...

    In contrast, the directors of our country at the same time still don't know what the word "sarcasm" means, right?...

    The movie focuses on the side of the war. It's a good movie, but I'm full of expectations for the chapter of court defense in the movie, but it doesn't matter. As far as the roaring court is concerned (To Kill a Mockingbird), (Smell the Scent and Know a Woman) is more driven....

    Kubrick's works before he became a Martian are the taste of traditional masters. Layers of trench iron nets, lonely whistles accompanied by regular and dull artillery fire, the soldiers crawled towards the enemy line as slow as beasts. Human-flesh confrontation, betting on the offensive magic of reputation and official luck! The last part is a classic, the song of the terrified girl, the cannon fodder with the obscene face a minute ago shed pure tears. This resonance can only exist in the bar,...

    Don't doubt God's will, these satanic officers were sent by God to carry out the divine will; the display of patriotism must rely on anti-human means; the soldiers who rushed to the dust and looked at death in their own homes burst into tears? You deserve it, who told you not to die on the battlefield; "We will fight to win the war, those people did not fight, so they were killed", killing soldiers leads to victory. Seen the best of Kubrick so...

    Kubrick's war films are not as simple as war. His works always use absurd methods to explore human nature on the surface of war. This is the case with the full metal shell, and this film is also the same. It was meticulous, especially that officer, who was more than domineering, he was simply not human. The group of soldiers tried their best, but he executed them for an unwarranted crime. 5...

    I like this short story very much, everything is neat and tidy, even the stinging pain does not come right away, but slowly fades away with the singing until the despair is unbearable. Endless. Handheld use and editing are also very...

    The war has generally been deeply reflected by human beings after the two world wars, but the relationship between civilization, rights and status still follows the original laws that accompanied the birth of civilization. The road, now it shines with the glory of scientific civilization, can not be questioned and slow down to continue to the unknown front. Kubrick and all human thinking may never have an...

    This film is very Kurosawa Akira, especially the telephoto battlefield sports lens, which made me shout "Kurozawa Akira"! Kubrick's most complete classical Hollywood realism drama, the early cleverness has not faded, the early juvenile enthusiasm has not faded, and it has not entered the pure Kubrick before the ruthless ridicule of human mental illness. . After reading it, Xin Hengshan felt that he had an appointment with Kushen for an afternoon meeting, and the old man Beihe hugged him at the...

    "Road to Glory" for everyone

    "Dear Judges, I have been ashamed of being a human being several times, and this will be once. It is impossible for me to make a concluding statement for the defense, the court has not given me the opportunity to do so...I protest my Blocked from giving evidence, which is crucial. The...

    "Road to Glory"

    This is really good to watch, a cowardly captain, a hypocritical general, a righteous colonel, a crazy war machine, a ridiculous story. He has a kind of wrestling and tension between the sentimental, compassionate and moral human nature symbolized by the colonel and the rational and cruel war...

Paths of Glory quotes

  • Colonel Dax: Gentlemen of the court, there are times that I'm ashamed to be a member of the human race and this is one such occasion.

  • Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: I'm not afraid of dying tomorrow, only of getting killed.

    soldier in bunk: That's as clear as mud.

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: Well, which would you rather be done in by: a bayonet or a machine gun?

    soldier in bunk: Oh, a machine gun, naturally.

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: Naturally, that's just my point. They're both pieces of steel ripping into your guts, only the machine gun is quicker, cleaner, and less painful, isn't it?

    soldier in bunk: Yeah, but what does that prove?

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: That proves that most of us are more afraid of getting hurt than of getting killed. Look at Bernard. He panics when it comes to gas. Gas doesn't bother me a bit. He's seen photos of gas cases. Doesn't mean anything to me. But I'll tell you something though, I'd hate like the devil to be without my tin hat. But on the other hand I don't mind not having a tin hat for my tail. Why is that?

    soldier in bunk: You're darn tootin', because...

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: Because I know a wound to the head would hurt much more than one to the tail. The tail is just meat but the head- ah, the head is all bone.

    soldier in bunk: That's...

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: Tell me this. Aside from the bayonet, what are you most afraid of?

    soldier in bunk: High explosives.

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: Exactly, and it's the same with me, because, because I know that it can chew you up worse than anything else. Look, just like I'm trying to tell you, if you're really afraid of dying you'd be living in a funk all the rest of your life because you know you've got to go someday, anyday. And besides...

    soldier in bunk: Yes?

    Pvt. Pierre Arnaud: If it's death that you're really afraid of why should you care about what it is that kills you?

    soldier in bunk: Oh, you're too smart for me, Professor. All I know is, nobody wants to die.
