The Japanese bombed the city of Nanjing

The narrative of this film is not too strong, and the visual expression is average, but there are also some good pictures and points that have a deep impact on me.

1 Rabe held a farewell party the night before he was about to leave. The Japanese bombed the city of Nanjing. Rabe opened the door of his factory to take in employees and refugees, and helped some Chinese people from suffering with a flag.

2 Rabeben is about to leave Nanjing. Due to his kindness and responsibility, he is the head of the Nanjing Safety Zone.

3 The separation from his wife and the love and affection between them never leave

The following two are the most disgusting to me

4 The two officers and soldiers of the Japanese army are beheading more people than who...

Rabe's helplessness and anger in the face of this atrocity

5 A doctor's son was injured in the battlefield and was moved to the hospital for treatment. After being discovered by the Japanese army, the Japanese army brutally killed the nurse and doctor in the treatment.

6 After Rabe left Nanjing City, Nanjing survivors gathered to express their gratitude to Rabe and the embrace of Rabe and his wife

John Rabe quotes

  • Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Congratulations, Major. You'll make an excellent commander one day. But I ask myself, why is it that I give orders not to take prisoners, and you arrive with thousands?

    Major Ose: Please forgive me.

    Japanese Officer: Your Highness.

    Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: I didn't ask you to speak!

    [Japanese officer steps back and bows]

    Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: So, Major. What do you propose?

    Major Ose: Your Highness. It would be extremely difficult to execute that many prisoners.

    Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Is that so?

    Major Ose: Furthermore, I believe such executions could be considered to be illegal.

    Prince Asaka Yasuhiko: Illegal? I am entrusting you personally with resolving this matter once and for all. I want no prisoner alive by tomorrow morning. We will also shell the city center. Nanking must experience the superiority of our troops.

  • Colonel Nakajima Kesago: He disobeyed the rules by not staying in the car.

    John Rabe: He didn't stay in the car? His head was cut off!

    Colonel Nakajima Kesago: It was an honorable death. A contest between two officers. Very popular in Japan.

    John Rabe: What contest?

    Colonel Nakajima Kesago: Who decapitates the most enemies.
