The sin of life is a black joker, haha

The protagonist is named joker, and war is a joke. And joker is full of humanity in the cold war, because he loves words, loves words, and people who work with words are mostly a group of people who love to think and perceive human nature more than others. Most literature and movies have That's what it said.
At the beginning, the little chubby with a smile on his face, the joker helping him tie the buttons and teaching him to tie his shoelaces is the scene that moved me the most in this film. In the end, he swallowed a gun and committed suicide. It can only be said that he was too emotional, fragile and serious. Sometimes being too emotional and vulnerable is the Achilles' heel.
On the plane, the little photographer was airsick, and the other murderer was very hilarious. The comparison between the two puts the most insignificant and basic physiological reactions of human beings and massacres together, which shows that human beings are physically insignificant and spiritually fragile. Vomiting from the plane, mentally distorted by the war. But this scene I laughed, really hit my black humor point.
Survival and freedom are the two major options before human beings. These two propositions, the other propositions are not very important. Most human beings will choose the latter between freedom and survival. But there are also a few people who choose the former. Escape from prison to obtain personal freedom, commit suicide to obtain detached spiritual freedom, give up material possessions and status to obtain spiritual freedom, and recklessly obtain material and rights to obtain financial and rights freedom. Way. These few people are mostly people of faith, perseverance and courage. There are very few people who want to rule others by helping others to gain freedom, which is the best use of freedom.
In the last scene, in the ruined building of Vietnamese civilization, the sniper turned out to be a thin girl with a machine gun. The age that should be naive... Hey, thinking about myself, I suddenly feel that everything is not a problem. Thinking about going to the third world in the future, I might be kidnapped and kidnapped or something, so I'm not so afraid anymore. That's it, I have no belief in dying for the people, but I am willing to experience a different world. Faith is too mysterious, it is often not yours, because it is always created by others.

    Related to the Vietnam War. Stanley Kubrick’s filming is even better than "A Space Odyssey", probably because of a change in people. What impressed me deeply was the "Death of Renault", from a fat man with a silly smile to a murderer with a fierce face. This process of transformation is really regrettable and scary. War is a cruel act that can easily destroy a person, both mentally and physically. The title is thought-provoking.

    Sometimes I hate Kubrick
