Old guys, salute you

The three famous protagonists, except for Sir Roger Moore, are still alive, the other two are dead. The plot is very old-fashioned, but it was originally an old movie, and the old-fashioned story is taken for granted. Richard Burton hadn't heard of it, but he looked familiar. It's no wonder that he died a little earlier, and he died within a few days of my birth. Richard Harris died six years ago. If he doesn't die, I don't know if he will continue to play Dumbledore? Our Sir Roger Moore, in his movies, he always emphasizes that he is a good looking man in the plot, and I am afraid that no one knows the same.

The veterans in this movie feel very bleak for me. Do they still think about life in the army? Do they still like to make contributions on the battlefield? Why go back to real life, after having children, wives, and working, you still have to return to the battlefield desperately? I feel strongly that these mercenaries don't feel that there is something that must be accomplished before going to the battlefield, but that they just want to fight. Maybe it’s too old, I can’t understand what this movie is about telling the audience. I really want to ask people who have been soldiers and fights, is war really so attractive?

This is a feature film, a feature film with the author's strong personal wishes. The first protagonist can't die because of the rain of bullets and bullets, and the characters who have been explained in advance, the characters who are concerned about, die at the right time and in an appropriate way. There is nothing to say, the film more than 30 years ago, this is already a rare masterpiece.

    I was watching this film in the afternoon and let me sing in the 1980s. I mentioned this film again, so I got nervous and drove the donkey to pull the goods. I pulled it down in four hours and spent two hours watching it. In a word, it is still a product of the times, I missed it in that Times watch is now tutoring, no matter how classic it is, it only resides in the memories of the experiencers of that era. . . So, grab it now and don't waste it

The Wild Geese quotes

  • Lt. Shawn Fynn: [forcing a punk to eat heroin] I hope you have a big appetite, sonny, because it's all yours.

  • Lt. Pieter Coetze: We whites have carried you people on our backs ever since we came to this country.

    Julius Limbani: It's the other way around now, is it?

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: Is it? You need me to save your miserable black life now, don't you?

    Julius Limbani: I do. And then you may need me to save yours. We need each other, white man. And that's the way it should be. We've got the whole world using us now. Setting group against group, destroying Africa. Our new freedom is just a new label for their brand of slavery. And a final blood bath is coming. First between black and white, and then between black and black when you whites have left Africa for good.

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: Man, we've built your countries, and now you're kicking us out or almost all of them! You're living on foreign aid, robbing your own people blind, crying about outside oppression while you kill each other in great big bleeding batches. Once you have something better to offer, then you can come talk to us in the white south.

    Julius Limbani: We both have something better to offer. Listen to me, because the white south is next unless you learn.

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: Oh, bullshit! We whites were born here. We're just as African as you are. And don't make a mistake, we're going to stay.

    Julius Limbani: I'm glad to hear that. Then you better join us, and help us sort out our future.

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: Join you?

    Julius Limbani: We have to learn to care for each other, or there will be nothing left of our Africa but a burnt-out battlefield.

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: You have a point there. But do you have an answer?

    Julius Limbani: I have the will to look for one. We have to forgive you for the past, and you have to forgive us for the present. If we have no future together, white man, then we have no future. That's what I believe in, and that's what I'm willing to die for.

    Lt. Pieter Coetze: You're beginning to sound good to me. Maybe we need you. Maybe you're just the man.
