Another War Memoir + Survival Guide

I seem to have been watching low-budget "unpopular movies" lately, and watching "The Archipelago" last week made me gloomy for the entire week. So when I saw the theme of World War II, I couldn't help but feel a little stunned. After all, war-themed movies are tearjerkers for me.
The beginning of the film is such a vast expanse of white, and white is the main color throughout the process. German and British troops met in the snowy sea of ​​Norway. I don't know if it's just me thinking or there is a hint that the sequence of the story development has a parallel feel to the structure of World War II. Aside from the U.S. military, the Germans had the absolute initiative in the beginning, with superior numbers and weapons. The British soldiers were few and unarmed. The Germans showed absolute obedience to discipline and strong endurance, while the British were reluctant and complaining, partly because they wanted to annoy the Germans. When the food is gradually running out, it is like when the war has entered a stalemate, and both sides are confused about the status quo, similar to "What should I do?" When the worship of the Führer that motivated people to fight turns into an out-of-control guide The fuse, the British army changed the situation to a certain extent. In the end, both German soldiers were thrown into prisoner-of-war camps, which was also in line with World War II.
What an easy and difficult question to answer when the Norwegian officer asks "Why didn't you kill them" in the last paragraph. Some would say that war does not destroy humanity, but I don't think so. Pilots can drop countless bombs from planes, but the guilt in their hearts is not proportional to them. But when he raised his gun to face the enemy who was just a few steps away from him, he didn't forget how to shoot, but couldn't pull the trigger. We can watch people fall from a distance, but we can't stand watching it happen up close. We would rather be blinded by ambiguity than watch anything happen clearly. Because, I think, when your imaginary enemy appears in front of you, you find that he is so similar to you, a beautiful woman you miss, a very real life, and you have the same joys and sorrows as you, all serving the country Allegiance, and at the same time understand that this so-called patriotism is so cheap. Killing him is tantamount to sending himself to the guillotine, letting the axe go through his neck, and letting the sun shine on his heart. Then keep them, since you can't do it.
So when I saw four big men standing on the top of the mountain and singing in front of the aurora, I felt very relieved. right! Not impressed! In recent years, the word moving has become more and more cheap like patriotism. The war made them meet unfortunately and reluctantly, so let them say goodbye. War is just a politician's game. What kind of deep hatred do I have between you and me? You must be divided into five horses to be happy? Each walked back to the station, but it was an ordinary crash.
Therefore, the most cruel thing in the whole film is the bullet, because after talking about the meaninglessness of so many wars, I understand the most important essence of life, and the reality is still a life-and-death cycle. You are wearing a Nazi uniform and you are my enemy. A soldier who does not kill the enemy is a traitor.

5 men stay in one room, can they not rot, can they not rot, can they not rot, can they not rot? !

What a pity the burned book of My Struggle = =, it looks hardcover and has the signature of the head of state! ! ! ! You don't know that this book would be an orphan if it were alive now! ! Do you know that there is only the D version now, and the wrong words can be edited into a dictionary = =

When Rupert laughed at the Germans who only eat meat sausages, I really felt that a country with the most terrible food culture in the world - no one , even laughing at others, and his face suddenly covered with black lines.

Both the Germans and the rotten nationalities can have such love. If the protagonists were changed to Americans and French, it would be a comedy.

When I watch it, I always have the feeling that the Norwegians are the big bosses. It looks like a shabby little wooden house. In fact, it has everything. As long as you dig hard, you can find everything without letting go of the floors and ceilings. Another thought from the film is that a lighter is a must-have for survival in the wild. For the universal Norwegian cabin mentioned above, there is only enough fuel to ensure that you can spend a whole winter in it happily. It also expounds a "truth" that has been proven by countless movies recently - mastering the skills of marksmanship, you are not afraid to travel all over the world. Of course, the section where the four men surrounded the hare was really funny. When I saw it, I thought that the death of the hare was too tragic. These soldiers didn't know how to treat the life it gave.

    Such an ordinary movie made me a little moved. There are always some moving and interesting stories in the war, but no matter how you whitewash the war, it is an amplifying machine for all kinds of negative emotions. Personally, I think the title of the movie can be changed to "On the Formation of Stockholm Syndrome". In addition, isn't this movie really for the so-called British gentleman....
