"The Bridge on the River Kwai": Living With Reason, Self-Esteem Not Guilty
"Bridge on the River Kwai": Survival makes sense, self-respect The Innocence
film has in many cases been reduced to an allegorical exposition. This may be because war expresses the eternal thinking of human beings, such as life and death, in the strongest extreme way. Therefore, some ideas and impulses lurking in human life can be externalized in war movies. The form is reflected, which constitutes the possibility that war films can be used to express fables....

I don't know why it gets 8 points. Did the movie take so long to help you sleep? I've been blind for almost 3 hours. I don't feel nervous or exciting. In the film, the Japanese are described as idiots, just to help idiots, why are you British soldiers still being captured? I feel that I saw a replica of the domestic hand-torn devil.

On the issue of whether British officers should participate in manual labor, the British colonel refused to work for officers in accordance with the Geneva Convention. Even if Saito threatened with force, violently beaten, locked up, or made concessions, the colonel would never compromise. Under the stubborn insistence of the colonel, Saito finally gave up the plan of forced labor of the officers, and the colonel achieved a complete victory.
This incident shows that adherence to...

You've all been sold and you need to help out!
All Chinese people who like this film need to consider your psychology when watching the film.
What everyone has mentioned I don't want to repeat. But the film is full of contempt for the Japanese, haven't you noticed? Both Colonel Nicholson and his officers said that they would give the "savage" Japanese a vivid lesson in civilization and teach the Japanese what civilization is. This blatantly racist rhetoric must now be criticized.
In terms of characterization, white...

A very good film, a reflection on the so-called "military honor", which can also be regarded as an irony to the British spirit, contradictory human nature in war, as Major Clipton shouted at the end: Madness! Madness!
It's a pity, maybe because of the times The reason is that the film strongly hints at the superiority of the white people: the indomitable British officers and soldiers who are not afraid of life and death; the young and beautiful indigenous girls who are full of...

Nicholson is obsessed with construction, and Colonel Wharton angrily destroys the Bridge on the River Kwai - the redemption of Lawrence on the Bridge on the River Kwai. I thought Nicholson had his own plan to escape from the shell, but I didn't expect it to be a complete idiot. It was a unique anti-war movie. Rather than criticizing the cruelty and absurdity of war, David Lean spent so much money to make a dark humorous joke about pedantic British officers. The texture of the film is excellent,...

The extreme depiction of human nature in war resides in various contradictions and conflicts. The dramatic ending was the finishing touch in my...

10/10 points. Watch the blu-ray version. The whistle is nice. The drama between the British officers and the Japanese devils is excellent. The 1957 film, which is a full 60 years ago, has a description of human nature that kills how many bad films in the current Chinese dynasty. ....

Colonel Nicholson: [looks at the completed bridge] I've been thinking. Tomorrow it will be 28 years to the day that I've been in the service. 28 years in peace and war. I don't suppose I've been at home more than 10 months in all that time. Still, it's been a good life. I loved India. I wouldn't have had it any other way. But there are times... when suddenly you realize you're nearer the end than the beginning. And you wonder, you ask yourself, what the sum total of your life represents. What difference your being there at any time made to anything - or if it made any difference at all, really. Particularly in comparison with other men's careers. I don't know whether that kind of thinking's very healthy, but I must admit I've had some thoughts on those lines from time to time. But tonight... tonight!

Major Clipton: Madness! Madness!
Colonel Saito: All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.
