The format is very novel, animation + original material + live interviews, highlighting the victims, passers-by and police officers who are righteous and brave. The animation turns to a real person and it is quite prickly, and there are details such as vertical middle finger and sliding eyes. But the problem is that the whole film has no opinions, more than warmth, insufficient expression, and completely hides the gunman, making the whole incident a bit endless and...

"Reconstruction" of historical events in the form of animation. The sense of alienation in animation has to some extent eliminated the bloody and cruelty of violence itself, but it is not far from reality, but provides another way to enter the event and expand the image. Possibility of performance. It's just that the film itself does not achieve a balance in the narrative structure, and the latter part is somewhat clichéd. Both the excavation of the event and the emotional level of the...

The form of interlacing old film and animation to reproduce history is very clever, and the timely appearance of the narrator is also very sensational. Although the retelling only from the perspective of the victim may lack thickness (compared to prosecuting the cause of the murder from the perpetrator's life experience), the outline of the story of love and courage is moving...

An ingenious documentary that uses animation to restore the crime scene ingeniously. Gunshots are endless, and the interspersed interviews make the animation clips look cruel. The whole film does not introduce criminals who shoot indiscriminately, which can be understood as discouraging crime. The last character interview shows the shining light of human nature in times of...

Ignorance. I knew about this incident for the first time after watching this film, and then I read various materials to supplement it. 2016 coincided with the 50th anniversary of the shooting incident. The same incident did not happen again, but similar incidents continued to occur. Anti-social and anti-human groups are never to be forgiven, even if it has any personality defects. Don’t those who gave bad reviews still understand the meaning of this film? What are the critics of form and...

The documentary is made in the form of animation splicing film, a very detailed restoration of the shooting 50 years ago, the indiscriminate shots of the shooting are aimed at the victims, and the school tower has become a hunting ground for this "invisible" sniper. In an instant, many people lay down with guns. Facing violence and terror is a time to test humanity. Do they run hurriedly to protect themselves or stand up to rescue the victims? Facts have proved that the people of Texas are...

Documentary work. In 1966, snipers sniped passers-by from the school tower. In a blink of an eye, more than fifty people lay down with guns. The director interlaced old film and animation to truly restore the group portrait of the moment of fright. Every shot is touching. And when the monster walked among us, it also witnessed the rise of humanity: to rescue passersby who were injured by the danger of headshots, raise shotguns and killers against citizens, police who turned the tide...ordinary...

No one is a lone hero
This movie is both a cartoon and a documentary. The film has two main lines ingeniously constructed, one is an interview with an aging party, and the other is to restore the tragic University of Texas shooting 50 years ago through animation.
In the film, we can see the panic and helplessness of... -

What does this have to do with power or axiom?
In addition to the inspiring narrative technique of the film, the most impressive is the statement made by the host at the end of the film:
"The sick people in the crowd must be blamed on our over-developed civilized society, strangely catering to violence, and disrespect for life. These are all...

John Fox: I remember looking at the Tower, of course, a lot. And from the Main Mall you can see there's a biblical line from the Bible. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." I've thought about it. One of the truths I learned... Is that there are monsters that walk among us. There are people out there that think unthinkable thoughts and then do unthinkable things.

Walter Cronkite: The horror of these, the sick among us, must be found in the horror of our hyper-civilization. A strange pandering to violence, a disrespect for life, fostered in part by governments which, in pursuit of the doctrine of self-defense, teach their youth to kill and to maim. A society in which the most popular newspaper cartoon strips, television programs, and movies are those that can invent new means of perpetrating bodily harm. A people who somehow can remain silent while their own civilization seems to crumble under the force of the caveman's philosophy - that might makes right. It seems likely that Charles Joseph Whitman's crime was society's crime.
