A movie that can move men

At that time, the current popular niche, "Avatar", "Terminator 2018" and "Clash of the Gods" male protagonist Sam Worthington was just a "Prisoner B", like Zhou Xingxing of the year, still acting Struggling hard on the road.

Colin Farrell has just debuted, and even with his beard, he is just a pink boy.

Only our old cloth-Bruce Willie-has the righteousness and vicissitudes of life on his face, making him a senior general who is not angry and prestigious. There is no more suitable role for this professional soldier than him.

But I have to sigh: They are all in jail, so why do German concentration camps look like holiday villages? In addition to not being able to cross the barbed wire, there are everything else: board and lodging, movies, drama, radio, sports... and all of this is free!

All this aside, this is a good movie, telling the story of men, including courage, responsibility, dignity, loyalty, betrayal... and sacrifice. This is a movie that can move men.

    I always feel that Colin has the style of Robert De Niro in this film.

    Your war will never end. With a unique perspective of war and a perfect story background, the original expectation was an in-depth discussion of human nature, but it turned out to be too long to lay out the narrative without leaving any deep imprint. There are too many logical omissions and endless plots, which make the plot very scattered. I have never seen such a gentle German army.

Hart's War quotes

  • Col. Werner Visser: You know sometimes I think your Lieutenant Scott might have been better off in Alabama. Lynchings are over

    [snaps fingers]

    Col. Werner Visser: in minutes. The kind of justice he's suffering here is far crueler.

  • Lt. Lincoln A. Scott: You know how hard they tried to wash us out in flight school? the colored flyers, it was test after test, anything they can come up to turn us into the cooks, the drivers, the shit shovelers, but I refused to wash out, so did Archer, come hell or high water, we hit the books, we were determined not to spend the war being some niggers, with all due respect, sir I'd like to exercise my right to address this court, I've been sitting down ever since I got here and I should've said something when you quartered us with the enlisted men instead of quartering us properly as officers, but it's ok, because colored men expect to jump through a few hoops in this man's army, Archer knew that, we all did. there's camp right outside Bacon, where I'm from and that's where the army sends the German POW's, picking cotton, what's strange every once and a while, we'd see them around town going to the movies, eating at diners, but if I wanted to go see the same movie I'd half to sit way up in the balcony, those diners were closed to me, even in uniform this must've happened to half the guys at Tuskegee and the German POW's were allowed to sit there and eat but we kept telling ourselves because no matter what, as long as we did our job, it would all be worth it because the war would end, we could home and be free to walk down any street in America with our heads held high as men, so that's what we did, we did our jobs, we served our country, Archer and I, and what you let happened to him, what you "allowed" to happen to him is appalling, and so is this.
