Try to understand history and be more grateful for the present

The film review tells the story of Hitler's Nazi occupation of France in World War II, the Jewish racial cleanup from 1942 to 1944, and a pair of young Jewish brothers, Morris and Joe, who embark on an escape journey to the end of World War II and the family reunites in Paris.

A bag of marbles, at the beginning of the film, a bag of marbles refers to a bag of marbles in exchange for Joe to a six-pointed star symbol, a symbol of Jewish identity, and a good friend hopes that Joe will not be bullied. As the plot progresses, a bag of marbles is on the run. On the way to the two brothers to give goodwill to help people - the priest on the train, the uncle crossing the sea, the driver on the field road, the battalion commander from the youth training camp, the hospital occupied by Germany to Dr. Rosen, the support of Hitler to the bookstore owner.

In the middle of the film, in the youth camp and the hospital, your beliefs and beliefs exist in your heart and behavior, and it has nothing to do with the religion you follow orally. The younger brother's firmness in kindness and hope has always been in his heart, just like marbles have always been with him. As said at the end of the film, the male protagonist's father said that after a good person dies, a star will rise in the sky and continue to illuminate others, and you must believe in your own hope.

The fear of war, separation, and even the racial sweep of chauvinism, are a man-made disaster for society. When you were studying in the past, what you saw about the history of wars was only the words of books, but how many people could really understand the meaning of the words written in history books? When I see the war scene through the film, I am truly grateful for the peaceful life at the moment.

    I feel that my younger brother is a bit stupid, and I don't like some plots, such as forcibly having a crush on a girl, and a little brother secretly crushing on a big sister... I was very moved at the end, especially the silent emotion. Although I am a so-called head of state and a German club, I will be inexplicably excited and interested when I see things about the Nazis, but I really hate everything they do. Is persecuting Jews a dick? I feel that the Nazis are dictatorial like a certain ☭, and they are very successful in brainwashing... [Watched on 6.23]

    Indeed, as many people have said, after all, it involves about three years, and it is the age of great change for the teenage children. From the beginning to the end, I feel a little bit of a play. The film is an adaptation of real events, and there is a version in the 1970s. For me, this 17-year-old film is my first exposure to this story.
