When human beings were born, they might never have thought that there would be war, such a lingering nightmare, lingering with themselves. "Bible × Genesis" says At the beginning, it was good. But this kind of goodness no longer exists with the development of society. The more advanced society is, the greater the danger brought by war. Perhaps in the future, what war will bring to us is no longer just displacement and wives, but the destruction of all mankind and the entire planet...
Young people running on the grassland have their dreams: they have a beautiful vision of life, right There are boundless expectations in the future. Regardless of Archy, Jack, or anyone else, they have the right to pursue their dreams. Life represents an infinitely possible future for them. It is conceivable that they may become world-class sprinters (Archy), or they may marry wives and children, and operate their own farms (others). Everything can be called happy and carefree.
But the war came, and it changed everything. It was these young people who became part of the war machine in a blink of an eye, contributing their blood, flesh, and life to this machine. And they are not well-trained, iron-blooded and ruthless warriors, they are just ordinary people with dreams and even some ignorance. As a result, they were sent to the front line, and then sent to the battlefield by the commander in batches, and then fell under the guns of the landers. The war makes everything gone, everything is over.
At the end of the film Jack received an order not to charge to death from the superior, and ran back desperately, and his friend Archy had been sent to the battlefield by the officer...just like in Legends of the Fall (1994), Tristan saw Samuel being killed by the enemy, and the greatest pain in life could not be more than this. It is also the most painful and uncomfortable place for me to see.
When we are accustomed to the media always praising individual war heroes or reporting on a certain war, perhaps we should not forget the cruelty of war and the innocent people who lost their lives in the war.
I hope there will be no more wars in the world...
