About duty

I often ask myself: "If I were to command such a broken ship, would I be able to do better than the captain in the show? What am I missing compared to him?"

There is no doubt that K19 is a song A heroic hymn about duty. But when in a team, everyone's understanding of their respective duties can't be unified, and each has a small abacus, and even destroys each other and sees each other's jokes, what else can I do? Am I empowered enough to do what I'm supposed to do - "punish evil and promote good"?

It is a blessing to lead a team that belongs to an army, because complete obedience ensures that you can do what you want to do - victory!

    A very good film, which profoundly demonstrates the plight and patriotism of Soviet soldiers in the context of the nuclear arms race between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. It also greatly reflects the broad-mindedness of both the patriotism and the team when faced with the choice of life and death at the same time. The officers and men on the K-19 are a group of unsung heroes.

    The driving force behind the film is the tension between life and death on the one hand, and how an American director portrays a group of Soviet fighters on the other. It turns out that Catherine Bigelow's lens has no ideology left or right, only real men.
