Eggs surrounded by high walls - Doctor Zhivago

The movie I watched, never found the original. The general plot can be seen as the author Paternak's experience. At that time, the novel "Doctor Zhivago" won the Nobel Prize, but the author could not go to Sweden to receive the award because of the obstruction of the Soviet authorities. History always repeats itself, and this year we saw a similar scene. But it happened in China.

As a doctor, Zhivago is quite humanitarian, no matter what class, he will go to heal. Sometimes he went to the military to practice medicine under the threat of a pistol. When the tsarist cavalry massacred protesting students, he went to the streets to heal the wounded. The imperial general was injured in the mutiny, and he still went to heal. He doesn't seem to care about politics, but politics cares about him. His home was confiscated as public property, and there was only a little space left for his large room. There was not enough firewood, and the child was freezing. He went downstairs to steal some firewood and was found by his younger brother. His younger brother was the head of the Bolshevik Party, and his kinship was obliterated by the so-called party principles.

At the outbreak of the First World War, he was taken to serve as a military doctor, and when he met the nurse Nora, the two gradually fell in love. He had a child by then, and she had a child. Frequent wars and even defeats, the soldiers have long been unbearable. The Bolsheviks seized this moment and launched a riot. The once hot-blooded young Pasha is already a commander in the army. The businessman's evaluation of Pasha is noble and pure, but not suitable for this world.

Then the White Army and the Red Army fought for years, but no matter who won, it was the common people who suffered. Most of the time, Doctor Zhivago follows the times and only loves poetry. He took his wife and children back to his hometown. The house in his hometown was sealed. He happened to meet Nora in a nearby town. The old love has rekindled, and I am very entangled here. His wife happened to be pregnant at the time... He was captured by the Red Army on the way to find Nora and became a military doctor. At that time, Pasha was already a high-ranking official, but he was a murderer. He was later assassinated during the intra-party struggle.

Doctor Zhivago's wife and children were forced into exile because his father-in-law's family was a local landlord. A large number of elites went into exile at the time, including later Nabokov. Dr. Zhivago wandered the streets in the snowy winter, and returned to Nora's residence, with a messy beard, as if many years old. There is a razor on the table. They finally meet again, but they are in danger of being captured. They decided to go back to the seized house, where he wrote the collection of poems "Lala", howling with wolves. The two were forced to separate again. In the end, Dr. Zhivago's heart was very fragile. He saw Nora outside the window on the tram, but after getting off the bus, he couldn't make a sound and fell to the ground.

Russia has a beautiful scenery, like a fairyland. The blue light outside the window on a snowy night, the snow-white Ural Mountains, and the magnificent grassland. In contrast to this is the sinister nature of the human heart, the human nature that has been trampled on by power.

His younger brother climbed to the position of general by selling his soul, Pasha became a murderer from a hot-blooded young man, they are two bricks in the high wall. The whole film ruthlessly mocks the hypocrisy of the revolution, and no matter who comes to power, people's lives are a mess. No regime has really taken the people's right to life seriously. In wars, it is the common people who bleed. When it wins, it is a certain part of those in power who get the benefit. The utopian ideal of communism not only obliterates human nature and emotion, but also suppresses individual rights. The hypocritical Bolsheviks deceived the masses who did not know the truth and used them to seize power, but after the seizure of power, massacres and purges followed, and then the truth was concealed, until Khrushchev issued a secret report at the 20th Congress of the CPSU, the world was nowhere to be found. Shocked to find out that the so-called utopia is the real hell.

Looking back at the 20th century, all the communist regimes were extremely repressive of human rights, turned truth into lies, turned lies into truth, and tried their best to cover up history. Instead, they pretended to be the savior of the people. , the people's government, so some people ridicule you that people with the word "people" are generally the enemy of the people.

This is not surprising, Marxism is a system of theorizing violence, and the so-called revolution is completely hooliganism. Now if you beg someone to exploit you, no one may be willing.

Utopia is Utopia, just think about it. After the toss of the last world, few people are willing to return to the Utopia world.

No matter how sturdy the high wall is, it cannot withstand the smashing of thousands of eggs.

The story in the movie takes place in Russia, but I feel like my own country.
