I know, I know what most of you think: war distorts human nature, politics and interests distort human nature, if there is no war, the relationship between people is pure and beautiful, look, trapped little The enemies of the log cabin became friends because they were far away from war and politics.
But I want to ask you a question: what would have happened if the Germans and the Jews were trapped in the cabin in the wind and snow? Or, the Germans and the Soviets.
The German Nazis slaughtered 6 million Jews. During the war, Germany captured more than 2 million Soviet prisoners of war, but in the end only more than 800,000 survived. It is said that the Soviets captured Germans, and the result was similar.
How do you explain this?
Isn't war an expression of human nature? Isn't politics an expression of human nature? Could it be that war and politics are abstract phenomena that appear out of thin air, wonders that fall from the sky, and have nothing to do with people?
What if the Japanese soldiers and Chinese soldiers were trapped in the wind and snow cabin?
If the two sides can't get along well, what kind of opinions will you express?
Such a film, holding the banner of noble human nature, ignores the fact that during the war, the Germans always regarded the British as their equals, but with some other countries, this was not the case. a view. What about the British? Their country has not experienced the ravages of invaders like China, and has not experienced the pain and fear of slavery, slaughter, plunder and almost extinction like the Chinese!
I'm not saying that such a film is unreal, but its representation of war is limited, so the human nature it depicts is only limited human nature, not broadly representative. Even watching a lot of such movies will give people the illusion: "Look at how noble Westerners are, even in wars, they are so gentle and so elegant!" The practice of abandoning the Kuomintang army during the period is an example.
Don't say war distorts human nature, war is human nature, don't say how dirty politics is, politics still reflects human nature. This kind of film is full of Western anti-war ideas and values. It is not without merit, but it is too narrow and even secretly full of advocacy for the Western spirit.
