But he is really a clever little bastard. Smart, funny, sophisticated, bad idea.
Nothing, just a sentence of'Nobody's perfect' (Some Like it Hot) makes me have to love him. In the camp of prisoners of war mice, assembled binoculars to watch Russian female soldiers take a bath, and used the empty trousers of disabled soldiers to transport all kinds of supplies... The variety of Stalag17 is breathtaking and exciting.
Johnny is the protagonist in a folk song against British conscription in Ireland. His wife met him on the way to the market, and she repeatedly sang Johnny I hardly knew ye. He has no arms, no legs, and no eyes. It is not easy to recognize an armless boneless chickenless egg alive. "Johnny, I swear to you", his wife finally sang, "They will never take our son again." After
the Great Irish Famine, this song was brought to the United States by Irish immigrants, and its tune was first in the Civil War. Adapted by the Southern Army into a military song johnny comes marching home.
It soon spread to the north, and then people all over the country are singing. Johnny was transformed in the United States and became a battle hero that everyone wanted to see.
The American prisoners of War at Stalag17 sang him on Christmas, which may have the same meaning as our Chinese New Year dinner together with "Singing the Motherland".
In 1964, Dr. Strangelove used this melody as the theme music, adding two sonorous male voices to hum after the drums, and named it Bomb Run. Accompanied by the exciting, tragic and magnificent melody of Bomb Run, a B-52 bomber that survived Soviet artillery fire like a tragic and fearless lone hero, set foot on the road to the destruction of mankind alone. The bomb reads'Dear John', like the beginning of a letter, maybe a love letter to a soldier.
Johnny, the soundtrack of Die hard, also participated, but unfortunately I haven't watched it.
