Serial Destruction - Hope/Meaning/Faith

This film is a typical "anti-war war film". If you want to see a scene of violent explosions and gun battles that keep punching to the flesh, this rookie sincerely hopes that you can "leave".

OK, now back to the topic.

The recruit Murphy came to the military camp with the simple dream of "Take advantage of the youth to make a big ticket", just like his father. As a result, I never thought about it, and I was sent to the front line to fight.

So, just a few days after he turned 18, he experienced the tragic battle, the death of his teammates, and the dog leash of his true love.

===============================================

His hope was gone at the moment when the military doctor girl was hit by a cannonball.

The meaning of his joining the army, and even the meaning of his entire life, "has shaken." .

Believe me, a hopeless, meaningless man, let alone a "Frontline Combatant", will be "excusable" for whatever crazy choices he makes.

I believe that this is also the "metaphor" of "Christian Baptism" that is repeatedly mentioned in this film.

Do you still remember that movie——"All Quiet on the Western Front"? To be honest, I have never seen it myself.

But, at least, I've heard the story too.

Paul indignantly recounted to the students the ruthlessness of the war and that there was no war on the Western Front. He returned to the front line from vacation early, and was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet while reaching for a butterfly in the trenches.

Of course I can't "Fight the World". I don't think it's "The World Betrays Me" either.

There are too many things, not ourselves, "Can control". isn't it?

However, even in "Death", I can still carry out my "Last Defiance", "The Last Choice".

If, in this world, "there really is a heaven", then I will "pious hope", "in heaven, there will be no more bullshit (war)"!

At least, there is no "pointless bullshit war". . .
