Munich in spring

Because it is a Spielberg movie, it must be seen. Originally, I knew that it was about agents, so I thought there would be a very exciting shootout. The scenes of police and criminals fighting their wits and courage would be a Hollywood movie like the 007 series. After watching it, I realized that I was wrong. I forgot that this is a Spielberg movie, a movie that returns to Schindler's List and thinks about human nature, but this time it is more in-depth.

The agents also cook when they are resting. They also tremble and fear when they are performing tasks. They cannot see the existence of heroes in the movie. They are real and ordinary. care. I love the scene where the protagonists are in an apartment with a group of Palestinians, who don't know each other's identities until dawn, listening to music on the radio together, arguing with each other about the melody of their favorite hometown, sleeping on the floor together, There is an open-hearted dialogue in the corridor. However, when their mission and position reminded them, they carried out bloody killings. Tragedy happens when human nature is just warm.

At the end of the film, the Twin Towers are still standing, and the protagonist must not have thought of another tragedy that happened behind him thirty years later. Looking at the time since then, people have been looking forward to a peaceful world, terrorism has not died out because of endless killings, and more innocent victims have quietly climbed the "assassination list".
