affection

After watching the movie at first, I thought it was just a family film with a war as the background, a choice between family and country. Later, after watching the background of the war (World War I), I realized that it was the father's heroism that killed his son. , I was still blaming the father for Bird at first. After all, it was the son's own will (it may be an illusion caused by the film), and I couldn't understand why Jack said he couldn't stand this family. After combining the information, it became clear. But the picture of my father blaming himself at the end still moved me. I heard that Kipling later wrote on his son's epitaph: "If someone asks why we lost our lives in the war. It's because our elders deceived us...I think after my son died, he lived in Deep self-blame...

PS: Does anyone know who the little girl pictured in Jack's house at the beginning of the movie is?
