Yan Nan flew back, but the unchanging love was the soul-stirring love.

This 50's movie really surprised me, and many of the scenes in the movie are classics. The outbreak of the war, the protagonist's turbulent life, the contradictory psychology, from the happy and relaxed to the sad and tense, the scene of Mikhail's passage through the revolving corridor and the scene of the destroyed home show a sharp contrast. The two most unforgettable scenes for me are the shots of the heroine walking through the crowd. After the war started, the hero gave up on love and resolutely chose to join the army. The heroine went through the family members who were seeing off to find the hero. After the war, the heroine does not believe that the hero is dead, and shuttles through the reunited crowd, the sadness contrasting with the joy around her. This 55-year-old movie even used the method of montage and superposition. After the war, the heroine's home was in ruins, the heroine lost her virginity, and the hero was seriously injured. The white wedding dress and broken glass shards show The chain effect of war. A line of geese flew through the air, the cannons of war echoed, the beauty was broken layer by layer like fragile glass, the geese returned in a row, the original throbbing and love remained unchanged.

    The classic flavor is full of the same lineage from "Posykin" to "I Don't Believe in Tears". The light and shadow effect is very good. It's a textbook-level light.

    White birch forest, superimposed winding stairs, poetic shots, love dies in the mighty military music, in the cruel reality

The Cranes Are Flying quotes

  • [first lines]

    Boris: Wait, squirrel! Here. Put it on.

  • Fyodor Ivanovich: Stop it this minute! You're a still a soldier in the Red Army! Are you trying to get discharged? Are you afraid we'll heal your hands and send you back to the front?

    A patient in the infirmary: No, Doctor, he's not like that. He got a letter.

    Fyodor Ivanovich: I know. That's just an excuse. Big deal! So your bride ran off. You should be glad! She isn't worth a penny if she would trade a handsome guy like you, a real hero, for some rat sitting out the war at home! It's she who's forfeit her happiness, not you! And that's what she deserves. She's got a petty soul. People like her can't understand how much suffering we've gone through. You stood up to death itself. You looked death in the face. You approached it with your chest stuck out. And she couldn't even pass the little test of time. Woman like her deserve only your contempt. There can be no forgiveness for them!
