In this film, Tina Fei performed women’s unique insight and perception to the right level, successfully serving as a spokesperson for women, and at the same time allowing male audiences to perceive women’s strength, wisdom, short-sightedness, confusion and weakness.

There are obviously two ways of filming the film. One is a little casual, which is used in Afghanistan. It should not be too casual, because some emotional plots must be taken care of; the other is stable shooting at the tripod level, which is used in the United States. Scenes. The film was first introduced by a casual gathering in the battlefield, so that the audience was mentally prepared in advance, this was in the battlefield. After Jin yelled "F", the story went back to the past, starting with Jin accepting the task. The shots were very stable during this process. Even when bidding farewell to her boyfriend at the airport, she used a symmetrical and pure side composition, and the scene before going to Afghanistan was not very long. After only a few shots, Kim got on the plane to Afghanistan. The director tightly placed the audience on the plane. Like Kim, he only had an imagination of Afghanistan based on television, without any aerial shots overlooking the earth, only a swaying plane.

After stepping out of the airport, everything did not look unexpected. A group of Muslim-like people, noisy streets, general accommodations, etc. should be within the scope of thinking, but it is the Westerners who need our audience to adapt. , Not Afghans.

The first unexpected situation was that when Jin just wanted to ask where he could take a bath, he met Tan Ya, a well-known war correspondent. After a brief introduction, Tan Ya actually asked Jin to allow her to have sex with Jin’s security guards. . The audience was then quickly introduced into the world view of the Afghan battlefield set in the movie, "That's how they play, okay, understand."

But Jin in the film does not seem to be as easy to adapt to the environment of destroying the Three Views as the audience outside the world. The tight "chaotic" phenomenon makes her collapse, and the less you want to think, the more you come. , By the way, downstairs in the room, there were two dogs lingering in broad daylight, and Jin couldn't help but pay attention to them. In the first video chat with her boyfriend Chris, she was aggrieved. The woman's natural dependence still defeated the strong, but the contact was interrupted. Before she could complain enough, she had to face the nausea for an unknown period of time. Life.

For King’s interview activities, General Hollandek was responsible for security. At the first meeting, Hollandek gave King an advice based on his usual impression of female journalists in the field: "Do your job well. Don't make it useless". It also quoted a so-called "10-4-10-4" saying that no matter how unpopular a woman is in the country, she will become Concubine Yang when she arrives at the battlefield.

However, after a series of incidents, the general's impression of Jin changed. He, or the audience, also discovered that Jin is by no means a simple "Lascivious Concubine Yang", she is definitely a competent reporter. From her undaunted shooting of the shootout scenes, we can see her instinct for professional obsession. From her view of village women’s deliberate destruction of water wells, the general was surprised by her unique perspective of thinking. In short, this girl did Getting up to life is not sloppy at all, not only can keep up with the men's rhythm, but also cooperate very well. What is interesting is the plot of Jin's relief on the way. This point is to emphasize that no matter how much she works, she is still a woman after all. Such reminders appear in the film from time to time, which will have a good warming effect on Kim ending up with a woman's choice. Otherwise, if the audience sees a stronger and more professional Kim in the whole film, until the end Suddenly, it would feel too unexpected.

Jin's first report was not bad. The scene of the war was filmed. She and Tan Ya went out for a party for the first time. When the two of them walked into the banquet hall, the squinted gazes of men of different professions could not be called squint at all. They were more like the usual and unconcealed "I want to fuck her" gaze, which was conveyed to the audience. A stark fact, sex here is like a cigarette in a prison.

On the way, a little liar appeared in the film for the first time. Jin expressed sympathy for him and gave him money. Later, when he discovered that he was a liar, he was naturally very angry. And the little boy appeared twice later, which is also the imprint of Jin's change. When meeting in another place, Jin met Ian, a Scottish journalist for the first time. Tanya told Jin in advance that he was a well-known sex ghost. As expected, he was indifferent, but the person was not bad. These female friends, he is not annoying after all.

Waking up on the phone the next day, she went to interview Afghan Attorney General Ali Sadik, a very powerful and promising person. Ali deliberately showed Islamic behavior, ignoring women, and refused to talk directly with Jin, but later was moved by the outspoken Jin and showed a direct affection for Jin.

The celebration of Christmas and the big characters in 2004 made the audience aware of the time. It must have been three months since entering Afghanistan. When Kim Jong was about to return to the United States, Ali called and provided her with a Excellent interview, Kim decided to accept the call of fate. The warlord and Ali in this interview said the same thing, "Give her a headscarf and she will look like a handsome boy." Perhaps it is this for Afghans to see women when they shouldn’t be there. , Just so, let them feel the masculinity of a woman strongly.

The days in Afghanistan are not too short. Although the motivation to support Jin staying is the work that excites her, her sexual openness also makes her behave towards the personal bodyguard Nick slightly shaken, except that Ian who suddenly appears. interrupt. In the following evening, Tan Ya talked to Jin about an incident to be interviewed with great interest, but Jin and her were not the same. Jin’s questions about safety and reliability directly pierced the confidence of the war reporters in self-deception. Of course, they didn’t know that it was coming. Whether the interview is reliable or safe can only be brave by talking about the interview enthusiastically, while touting each other to eliminate worries, so Tan Ya helplessly confessed that "they can only use casual sex and alcohol to numb themselves."

Morality is correct. After all, Kim still has to integrate into the habits of the locals in terms of sex. Therefore, Chris cheated and Kim was free. After turning off the computer angrily, she noticed Nick, the bodyguard downstairs, especially her figure. Also, those two lingering dogs, but how can she be so depraved, make a phone call and use work to eliminate depression.

At the wedding of her personal translator Fahim, Jin, Tanya and Shakira revealed the reasons for her decision to come to Afghanistan. Although it is a small detail that normal people will not discover, the call is like a cipher text and will only be received by the person who is called. A person who is content with writing a domestic tabloid and presses the best will never She collapsed because she found that the bicycle in the gym had been ridden backward a little bit. First, Jin must be dissatisfied with real life for a long enough time, and complain enough as needed. Second, she must have the free and easy nature of "Fit" in her instinct. She often chooses to execute when she is tangled. This is also reflected in the beginning of the film. Through a phone call, he informed his ex-boyfriend who was still on a business trip of his decision to travel to Afghanistan. The origin and future of Jin, who was sitting at a wedding in Afghanistan today, were explained at this moment. For Jin, she said these words, which affirmed her own knowledge of her origin and future. Tan Ya took this opportunity to use Jin's reflection and knowledge to push the direction of freedom, "You are single, you must be yourself."

So a brief and smooth work experience appeared. After that, Ali, who was promoted to an official position, showed her kindness and directly expressed her desire to develop sexual relations. She also had more and more solid interpersonal relationships in the local area. At this time, Jin hoped to report the big news and decided to go to the more dangerous Kandahar. Although Fahim tried to stop him, the group of them still went. To go to the traditional area of ​​Kandahar, Jin had to wear national costumes and covered his whole body under a whole piece of clothing. What's interesting is that the director deliberately created a sexy atmosphere at this time, and the men did not see sexy at all. Jin cast an enthusiastic look, especially the Afghan old man, with a satisfied expression on his face, watching Jin pass by. The audience can't help asking: "What the F", yes, only you can't think of it, just like the name of the film: WTF.

In Kandahar, King once again showed bravery, even more brave than Ian, who had experienced kidnapping. Of course, this move caused the translator Fahim to withdraw. He tried to explain her dangerous character to Kim, but Kim didn’t realize Fahim’s thoughts at first, and did not realize that Fahim was actually talking about danger. , But not the other. Just like the example cited by Ximm, Jin is not more brave than men, but irrational. Men are supposed to be braver than women, but at the same time they also know the pros and cons and will analyze the situation rationally. At this time, Jin, She is totally irrational, in the excitement of losing her reason, her behavior and thoughts are just like a drug addiction, and she needs more stimulation to satisfy her. But Fahim's rhetoric did reveal a perspective that she hadn't seen before for Kim, which helped her find some rationality.

Kim gradually integrated into life in Afghanistan, and slowly got used to the reporter circle that she was uncomfortable with at first, but as the protagonist, the morals are correct, you know. Just one night, when the time and place are right, Jin got drunk and lost her way, while Yin En was rescued by the hero, sent her home, and heroically beat the negligent bodyguard, she discovered that the bodyguard was actually Canada. People, and Jin used to be touched by him, my God. The previous emotional training, being cheated by her boyfriend, in the deep chaos, so many "unexpectedly" tonight, heroes save the beauty, manhood, converge to one point, not only the protagonist, but the audience can't sit still, the reason is sufficient, not at all Will tarnish morality, so Ian and Kim go to bed.

It’s another metaphor. Ian uses the frog in a hot pot as a metaphor to illustrate that Kim is slowly changing in Afghanistan. Perhaps for the person involved, he realized that a person’s change was sudden, but in fact this change is It has been going on since it set foot on Afghanistan. After waking up, Jin also tried to use conventional logic to deal with the situation. Her reason wanted to tell her that the relationship with Ian and going to bed were all negative results caused by negative factors, but in fact, she knew it deeply inside her. , These are exactly positive, it is the process of regaining oneself.

The love life has changed, her career has also entered a trough, and the new boss has cut expenses. In the chat with Tanya, Tanya teased the relationship between Jin and Ian, the bodyguard Nick resigned, and Tanya got involved with the Afghan guys in Jin’s team. Of course, it’s not beneficial to Tanya. For those of you who got up early, all this is for reporting.

The interpreter is gone, the report is gone, the Afghan guy ran away with others, and it seemed that all the relationships that could bring him reports were broken. The loss of career gave him a chance to breathe in his private life. One morning, he woke up naked in the blanket, only to hear Ian brushing his teeth. At this time, Jin's feelings for Ian are closer. She and Ian complain about the pressure of work, and Ian is also willing to tell Jin about the heavy news that she knows and report with her. What follows is a very pleasant daily life. During breakfast, the two chatted together with affection. Can you imagine this kind of place? This kind of relationship gives people more warmth. In the market, the two of them held hands, like a couple, they were so sweet, and they were scolded by the old Arab lady next to them. Ian saw the liar kid. Although I knew he was a liar, Ian still gave him money. Here, people no longer care about morality as they do in a peaceful and affluent society. But through dialogue, they still haven’t gotten deeper into each other’s lives. This situation is a bit sad. I’m sorry, but their relationship can only go so deep. Fortunately, they can enjoy the short-term brought by curiosity. All kinds of fun.

Tan Ya had an accident during another interview mission. Although she was spared, her actions caused several casualties to the soldiers. Jin and Ian went to visit Tan Ya immediately. To Jin's surprise, Tan Ya didn't pay much attention to casualties and accidents. Her thoughts were all excited to photograph the whole process of the explosion.

When Tan Ya was injured and reported precious information, Jin was jealous, especially since she currently has no valuable reports. But at this moment, Ali came to Jin's residence to entangle, and Ali, who drank too much, danced outside the house like an animal in a hurry to chase her mating partner. It even made Jin collapse, and her anger exploded to the extreme.

The story came to the beginning of the film in 2006, and Kim had to decide to go to New York to get time for the broadcast. When packing up his luggage, Jin was thinking about home matters, what is home, so it seems that after all, Jin is still a woman, whether it is in New York or Afghanistan, since it is home, it is not only the house and food, but also Relationship, someone. Ian obviously didn't observe women's thoughts in this regard. He felt that the current relationship was very good, and he was also willing to relate to Jin, but Jin knew that everyone just lived a day and had fun in time. In addition, the pressure at work made Jin feel the threat of life early, and she is facing change again, and she may lose the exciting life that she has not lived, and she is afraid to go back to the office and consume her life. When faced with changes, people are often the first to reject them. Perhaps an easy life is suitable for Jin in the end, but if she changes suddenly, she will still be scared. Ian's concerns about her give entertainment support and comfort, but he still doesn't understand women's hearts. She needs far more support than support, and it takes a long time.

She had a purposeful trip to New York, but she discovered something unexpected. She thoroughly understood the nature of people like Tan Ya. Everyone lives for their own purposes, and realized that life without feelings is getting more and more. The uglier and filthy. In addition, Jin himself was in this industry, and it was unavoidable to hurt others. Because of her report, a soldier was sent to another place, but was blown off his legs during a mission. This is not her fault, but it is also her fault. She blames herself and is innocent. At home in New York, the lost Jin can only call my dear Ian, and only Ian can communicate with her emotionally at this time. It was when I was hitting a wall everywhere, Ian, who understood her job and her hobbies, provided her with the news reports he most wanted, which was undoubtedly a great comfort. Without a word, he returned to Afghanistan.

But when King Kong landed, she learned that her boyfriend had been kidnapped during the interview. She went to General Hollandeck for help non-stop. The general admired Jin and was willing to talk to each other, but did not have so much thought to help her. Jin's wisdom was given to the general. An excellent condition was offered to make the Army famous for this rescue operation. Of course, the general was very willing. King blackmailed the disgusting Ali again and asked the Afghan know-it-all general to provide the exact location where Ian was kidnapped.

The most tense lobbying was over, and the audience breathed a sigh of relief. General Jin He watched the photographer and a team board the plane to rescue Ian. At this point, the rescue process is no longer important, and we don't want to see any tension or accidents, but it is better to have some pictures that should appear. Therefore, the director added Mariah Carey's Without You for the quick-edited rescue scene, which is relaxing and soothing, which can be called a classic.

Ian sat alone on the plane for a while, and King came up to hug him and comfort him.

The report of the rescue operation was very effective, and everyone was happy. King sat there watching Ian happily describing his passing, accompanied by teasing. For him, maybe this is just an experience. Although it is unforgettable, it is nothing more than an experience. He will not know the wisdom and ability Jin used behind this. Of course, Ian cares about Jin, but only to a certain extent. What has changed still cannot be changed. Jin knows exactly that life here is a dead end. In fact, she has been conscious for a long time, but she hopes to walk around and discover that maybe her life will be different, but what should be done, there is no difference, as long as she is still In Afghanistan, or still working as a frontline reporter, she cannot escape the fate of having fun in time and lacking emotion. As a result, she knew herself again. She did not belong to Afghanistan. First of all, she was a woman. Secondly, she was a person with a conscience greater than the objective world. She did a lot of things that others could not do, but she couldn't do it easily. decision. Maybe she was already shaken when she was going back to New York to argue with her boss, but at that time she was frightened by the boring old life. She hadn't explored enough about the exciting life on the battlefield, and she was not reconciled. As the saying goes, not seeing the Yellow River and not dying Heart. At this time, watching Ian and those in the same way, Jin chose to leave. If he was fed up with the dull life back then, What The F would say goodbye to the past. Coming to Afghanistan is realizing himself. Today he is in career and relationship. At the double harvest, What The F packed up and went back home is also self-realization.

Fahim escorted her to the airport. King once again saw the liar child. At this time, she no longer looked at everything in Afghanistan with her own moral standards of the powerful democratic capitalist world. Children, restrained women, and conservative men can all be regarded as normal, not as a guest, but as normal subjectively. At the moment of farewell, facing Fahim, who might never see each other again, she did not give him a hug according to American habits, and she even shook hands with Fahim, who had helped Jin a lot. Nothing. It's just that when I took the box that Fahim handed over, the action that I didn't pay attention to originally brought the bodies of the two people into contact. Both hands were held on the handle of the box at the same time, and they stayed for a while. Meaningful.

After returning to China, Jin finished her final farewell to the world of war reporters. She went to visit the soldier whose legs were broken. The soldier was doing well. She did not complain or anger, but moved forward actively. Jin warmly ate dinner with his family at his home. Watching his happy life, Jin happily drove to another world, a life that really belonged to him after he circled a big circle.

King is a TV reporter, sitting in the TV station, reporting the news steadily. Life is full of ups and downs. How many people have always been in and out of the circle of war reporters. There are countless events that everyone must go through. How many people can truly discover themselves like Jin did, and be brave enough to be themselves. Looking back at everything she experienced in the film, lingering dogs, deceptive children, sexual pressing, villagers blasting wells, reports on gun battles, reports on Kandahar, etc., all this is not accidental. Destiny summoned Jin with the mark on the carpet when Jin was the most collapsed, and used these events to help her understand the world he didn't know, help her discover her unknown self, and promote Jin to do it through life and death and the joy of everyone. Return to your own decision. Jin’s experience is definitely a legend. Few people can be as lucky as her. Therefore, a woman like this legend will not remember any man forever. In the last shot, Jin happened to be interviewing Ian by satellite, in his free time. , Ian also invited Kim to meet in New York. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, end.

There are obviously two ways of filming the film. One is a little casual, which is used in Afghanistan. It should not be too casual, because some emotional plots must be taken care of; the other is stable shooting at the tripod level, which is used in the United States. Scenes. The film was first introduced by a casual gathering in the battlefield, so that the audience was mentally prepared in advance, this was in the battlefield. After Jin yelled "F", the story went back to the past, starting with Jin accepting the task. The shots were very stable during this process. Even when bidding farewell to her boyfriend at the airport, she used a symmetrical and pure side composition, and the scene before going to Afghanistan was not very long. After only a few shots, Kim got on the plane to Afghanistan. The director tightly placed the audience on the plane. Like Kim, he only had an imagination of Afghanistan based on television, without any aerial shots overlooking the earth, only a swaying plane.

After stepping out of the airport, everything did not look unexpected. A group of Muslim-like people, noisy streets, general accommodations, etc. should be within the scope of thinking, but it is the Westerners who need our audience to adapt. , Not Afghans.

The first unexpected situation was that when Jin just wanted to ask where he could take a bath, he met Tan Ya, a well-known war correspondent. After a brief introduction, Tan Ya actually asked Jin to allow her to have sex with Jin’s security guards. . The audience was then quickly introduced into the world view of the Afghan battlefield set in the movie, "That's how they play, okay, understand."

But Jin in the film does not seem to be as easy to adapt to the environment of destroying the Three Views as the audience outside the world. The tight "chaotic" phenomenon makes her collapse, and the less you want to think, the more you come. , By the way, downstairs in the room, there were two dogs lingering in broad daylight, and Jin couldn't help but pay attention to them.

For King’s interview activities, General Hollandek was responsible for security. At the first meeting, Hollandek gave King an advice based on his usual impression of female journalists in the field: "Do your job well. Don't make it useless". It also quoted a so-called "10-4-10-4" saying that no matter how unpopular a woman is in the country, she will become Concubine Yang when she arrives at the battlefield.

However, after a series of incidents, the general's impression of Jin changed.

Such reminders appear in the film from time to time, which will have a good warming effect on Kim ending up with a woman's choice. Otherwise, if the audience sees a stronger and more professional Kim in the whole film, until the end Suddenly, it would feel too unexpected.

Jin's first report was not bad. The scene of the war was filmed. She and Tan Ya went out for a party for the first time. When the two of them walked into the banquet hall, the squinted gazes of men of different professions could not be called squint at all. They were more like the usual and unconcealed "I want to fuck her" gaze, which was conveyed to the audience. A stark fact, sex here is like a cigarette in a prison.

Waking up on the phone the next day, she went to interview Afghan Attorney General Ali Sadik, a very powerful and promising person. Ali deliberately showed Islamic behavior, ignoring women, and refused to talk directly with Jin, but later was moved by the outspoken Jin and showed a direct affection for Jin.

At the wedding of her personal translator Fahim, Jin, Tanya and Shakira revealed the reasons for her decision to come to Afghanistan.

A person who is content with writing a domestic tabloid and presses the best will never She collapsed because she found that the bicycle in the gym had been ridden backward a little bit.

Through a phone call, he informed his ex-boyfriend who was still on a business trip of his decision to travel to Afghanistan. The origin and future of Jin, who was sitting at a wedding in Afghanistan today, were explained at this moment. For Jin, she said these words, which affirmed her own knowledge of her origin and future. Tan Ya took this opportunity to use Jin's reflection and knowledge to push the direction of freedom, "You are single, you must be yourself."

So a brief and smooth work experience appeared. After that, Ali, who was promoted to an official position, showed her kindness and directly expressed her desire to develop sexual relations.

She had a purposeful trip to New York, but she discovered something unexpected. She thoroughly understood the nature of people like Tan Ya. Everyone lives for their own purposes, and realized that life without feelings is getting more and more. The uglier and filthy. In addition, Jin himself was in this industry, and it was unavoidable to hurt others. Because of her report, a soldier was sent to another place, but was blown off his legs during a mission. This is not her fault, but it is also her fault. She blames herself and is innocent. At home in New York, the lost Jin can only call my dear Ian, and only Ian can communicate with her emotionally at this time. It was when I was hitting a wall everywhere, Ian, who understood her job and her hobbies, provided her with the news reports he most wanted, which was undoubtedly a great comfort. Without a word, he returned to Afghanistan.

But when King Kong landed, she learned that her boyfriend had been kidnapped during the interview. She went to General Hollandeck for help non-stop. The general admired Jin and was willing to talk to each other, but did not have so much thought to help her. Jin's wisdom was given to the general. An excellent condition was offered to make the Army famous for this rescue operation. Of course, the general was very willing. King blackmailed the disgusting Ali again and asked the Afghan know-it-all general to provide the exact location where Ian was kidnapped.

The most tense lobbying was over, and the audience breathed a sigh of relief. General Jin He watched the photographer and a team board the plane to rescue Ian. At this point, the rescue process is no longer important, and we don't want to see any tension or accidents, but it is better to have some pictures that should appear. Therefore, the director added Mariah Carey's Without You for the quick-edited rescue scene, which is relaxing and soothing, which can be called a classic.

Ian sat alone on the plane for a while, and King came up to hug him and comfort him.

The report of the rescue operation was very effective, and everyone was happy. King sat there watching Ian happily describing his passing, accompanied by teasing. For him, maybe this is just an experience. Although it is unforgettable, it is nothing more than an experience. He will not know the wisdom and ability Jin used behind this. Of course, Ian cares about Jin, but only to a certain extent. What has changed still cannot be changed. Jin knows exactly that life here is a dead end. In fact, she has been conscious for a long time, but she hopes to walk around and discover that maybe her life will be different, but what should be done, there is no difference, as long as she is still In Afghanistan, or still working as a frontline reporter, she cannot escape the fate of having fun in time and lacking emotion. As a result, she knew herself again. She did not belong to Afghanistan. First of all, she was a woman. Secondly, she was a person with a conscience greater than the objective world. She did a lot of things that others could not do, but she couldn't do it easily. decision. Maybe she was already shaken when she was going back to New York to argue with her boss, but at that time she was frightened by the boring old life. She hadn't explored enough about the exciting life on the battlefield, and she was not reconciled. As the saying goes, not seeing the Yellow River and not dying Heart. At this time, watching Ian and those in the same way, Jin chose to leave. If he was fed up with the dull life back then, What The F would say goodbye to the past. Coming to Afghanistan is realizing himself. Today he is in career and relationship. At the double harvest, What The F packed up and went back home is also self-realization.

Fahim escorted her to the airport. King once again saw the liar child. At this time, she no longer looked at everything in Afghanistan with her own moral standards of the powerful democratic capitalist world. Children, restrained women, and conservative men can all be regarded as normal, not as a guest, but as normal subjectively. At the moment of farewell, facing Fahim, who might never see each other again, she did not give him a hug according to American habits, and she even shook hands with Fahim, who had helped Jin a lot. Nothing, it's just that the two people's hands touched slightly when receiving the box that Fahim handed over. The close-up of picking the box is as subtle as the farewell performance. This action does not stop at all. There is no movement between the hands that touch. The action itself is just picking up the box, but the audience puts too much expectation on this shot of less than one second. And the meaning, you can't be sure whether the two hands touched or not, it's a wonderful finishing touch.

After returning to China, Jin finished her final farewell to the world of war reporters. She went to visit the soldier whose legs were broken. The soldier was doing well. She did not complain or anger, but moved forward actively. Jin warmly ate dinner with his family at his home. Watching his happy life, Jin happily drove to another world, a life that really belonged to him after he circled a big circle.

King is a TV reporter, sitting in the TV station, reporting the news steadily. Life is full of ups and downs. How many people have always been in and out of the circle of war reporters. There are countless events that everyone must go through. How many people can truly discover themselves like Jin did, and be brave enough to be themselves. Looking back at everything she experienced in the film, lingering dogs, deceptive children, sexual pressing, villagers blasting wells, reports on gun battles, reports on Kandahar, etc., all this is not accidental. Destiny summoned Jin with the mark on the carpet when Jin was the most collapsed, and used these events to help her understand the world he didn't know, help her discover her unknown self, and promote Jin to do it through life and death and the joy of everyone. Return to your own decision. Jin’s experience is definitely a legend. Few people can be as lucky as her. Therefore, a woman like this legend will not remember any man forever. In the last shot, Jin happened to be interviewing Ian by satellite, in his free time. , Ian also invited Kim to meet in New York. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, end.

    Saw this movie on the day the Taliban announced they had taken the presidential palace

    I found this movie by accident, I liked it very much, and I replayed it twice. After reading it, I felt heavy, calm and sober. One is to live on the front lines of Afghanistan and war correspondents, and to find and read the original English books. The second is for the main theme of the story (in fact, it has little to do with war): the normal and abnormal life, "the so-called boiled frog" - including Kim, Ian, the soldier with a broken leg - to put it bluntly, facing the "destiny" the predicament” of how to deal with oneself. Personally, Fahim's words to Kim are my favorite. It sounded the alarm in my heart: What kind of life do you want? Do you yearn for journalists and war correspondents, but is it just a narcotic to escape from real life?
