The epidemic has not completely subsided, the lingering shock in my heart has not faded, and the free time cannot go out and wander like before, so I have more time to enjoy and slowly experience some good movies.
There are no great characters, no ups and downs, ups and downs, and no grand scenes. But this is a World War II-era adaptation of a true story about an ordinary Austrian family.
At the beginning of the film, the hero and heroine live in their own farms, with beautiful scenery and particularly beautiful pictures. The hero and heroine go from meeting each other to falling in love with each other, to having 3 lovely children, and getting along with their neighbors in harmony. All help each other, farming life, simple and harmonious. Happy and contented. But it was all ruined by a sinful war!
When the roaring fighter plane flew overhead, Franz (the male protagonist) asked: "What happened to our country? Fran Ni (the female protagonist) looked at him with worried eyes, which has already foreshadowed the next How tragic is what is going to happen:
Hitler wanted to recruit troops in this town. Although Franz was just an ordinary farmer, he knew very well that this was a wrong war, and he did not want to let his hands be stained with the blood of innocent people. When all the neighbors thought they were part of Hitler's team, he insisted on refusing to join the army, at the expense of being excluded by all the neighbors, and he would never follow blindly.
In the end, he was arrested and imprisoned for treason. He suffered humiliation, beatings and other inhuman tortures in prison, but he was still firm in his inner correctness. When induced to be free as long as he signed the letter of approval, he asked, "Then do I need to raise my right hand to swear to Hitler?" When the lawyer told him that it was just a formality, a few words were enough, no one will take it seriously. He was once again rejected by the temptation to live!
During the brief adjournment of the trial, a German officer also tried to persuade him:
"Do you imagine that anything you do will change the course of this war? (Do you think what you do will change the course of this war?)"
That anyone outside this court will ever hear of you?"
"You can't change anyone, it's still business as usual."
At this time, the expression of the German officer was particularly well-done, and one could see the inner struggle and pain of the officer and his inability to do anything.
He asked Franz: ""Will you judge me? "
Franz, who has not spoken, said: "I won't judge you, I won't say he is evil, I'm right, I don't understand everything, people can do wrong things, and can't get away, can't be washed away. Sin, maybe he wants to go back, but he can't."
"But I have this feeling inside of me that i can't do what i believe is wrong"
The German officer asked him: "Do you have a right tu do this"?
Franz replied "Do i have a right not to?"
After Franz left, the German officer sat on the chair he sat on, watching his hands remain silent for a long time.
I recorded this conversation in detail because I want to say that I completely agree with this idea. Franz does not feel that he has such a lofty idea and is higher than others. He just follows his own heart and does not do what he thinks is wrong. , and at the cost of his life, but he will not judge others right or wrong. Such a person, such a belief, such a perseverance, how could he not be described as great? He is a great man! !
The video is more than 2 hours, there is not much dialogue, and most of it is narrated. This movie is telling us through the eyes and body language of several characters that when an ordinary person encounters a power, what else can he do other than fight at the cost of his life? It also tells us what a marriage of three views is a happy one! When Franz asked Franny if she understood his choice, Franny looked at him with sad eyes: "I love you! Whatever comes...I am with you, Do what is right. (I love you! No matter what happens...I'm with you, do what's right!)"
Therefore, Franz chose to use death to keep the firm belief in his heart. Franny fulfilled Franz by taking care of her own life and taking care of her family. She only looks forward to meeting you in the mountains in the future!
