Zhuanqiao Wanda Hall 9 (3D version released), 8.1~8.2 points "What is the plague? It's just life"-Camus 1, the opening screen changes from small to large, and the ending image changes from large to small , It is obvious that metaphorical history may be able to slowly walk into us at a certain moment, but it is destined to quietly retreat to the endless black hole of the years. Forgetting is human nature, our memory is too late to fill the sorrows and joys of others

2. I admire the production team’s devotion to history, and I’m very happy to see so many precious black-and-white images on the big screen that were first announced (and even repaired and colored). !). But from the perspective of the movie, the 90-minute bombardment of uninterrupted lines and the slightly monotonous accumulation of records are not the hallmarks of the best film.

3. Moving from black and white to color, it seems that I have lost the coordinates and latitude of time. That long narrative mixed with the charge gave me a terrifying empathy for the bottom line of the horror of war. Such a naked fear is rare in movie history.

4. Just as those innocent children under the age of 19 misunderstood war as a game, the most unforgivable and indisputable thing is that countless ordinary people regard their lost lives and bloody wars as wine for others. Gossip after a full meal. It’s not that they can’t empathize with them, nor that they’re willing to forget it on their own initiative. It’s just that this cruel world only allows us to have a little time to take care of and satisfy our endless greed and desires.

So, their pain and sorrow, let them go with the wind

War is like a plague, it won’t make life better, it won’t make life worse

Human nature is the same, right

    After watching the 3D big screen, even sitting in the first row, the experience was perfect. Afterwards, I couldn't help but ask the museum staff who were present how to choose the materials. asks for everything, then you send him everything. And, the British really love making tea! ! ! !

    Who are they? A group of young people ranging from 15 to 19 years old, British recruits who participated in World War I. I was eager to try before going to the battlefield. It felt like a team game. The battle started, and I felt like a meaningless walking corpse, fleas, mice, headless corpses, cannonballs, poisonous gas, and tanks. After the war, they found that they had become superfluous people in this world.
