Since ancient times, many wars have inevitably occurred. In the turbulent times when the people are struggling, uprisings are a helpless choice for officials to force the people to rebel; in the replacement of dynasties where power is in conflict, and in the revolt of oppression by power, the tide of history is engulfed in the surging war. go ahead. But in the ups and downs of the gallop, in every surging wave, there are countless lives that are wrapped and beaten, longing for peace and harmony...
One, I have seen "Nanjing! Nanjing! ", when I read it again, my heart still trembled like those two exclamation marks. The last scene of the movie moved me to tears. After the catastrophe, the frightened Xiaodouzi couldn't hold back the joy of rebirth and ran forward, laughed and laughed, cried, cried and laughed, and the laughter sprinkled in the wilderness was like weeping and complaining - difficult And resolutely ran towards the dawn of victory, but could not shake off the heavy pain and disaster. The cruelty of war is not only the loss of life in the artillery fire, but also the damage to the spirit and soul. Little Douzi, a thriving young man over patterns, should be able to study with peace of mind, play games, and have hope, but was abruptly pushed into the danger of war, and looked at the various atrocities and tragedies around him with a pair of painful eyes. Maturely choose to defend the home and the country. Although fortunately escaped the slaughter, but the trauma can never be erased.
And this kind of mental and spiritual trauma not only harms the people of the righteous side of the war, but also destroys the aggressor side. Militaristic education inculcates aggression, brutality and murder in children in a brainwashed way, making innocent children lose their right and wrong judgments and blindly worship violence. As the mother said to Jojo in "Jojo Rabbit": When you grow up happily, you should play games, not celebrate wars and talk about politics...

The cannibalism among compatriots in the movie "Warren" is suffocating; the betrayal of compatriots in "The Pianist" is embarrassing; the inexplicable internal war in "Four Days in May" is terrible and absurd; "Nanjing!"

"Mr. Tang's act of betraying his compatriots is unforgivable, but in the difficult choice, what should be hated most is the cruel war that is so difficult to be a normal and good person alive. Those helplessness and hardships, those inner struggles and pains, and the redemption of self-sacrifice are all fragile and vulnerable.
In the same way, this kind of human torture and choice is also extremely painful for the people and soldiers on the unjust side of the war. If most of the fighters of the invading side are bad people who kill without blinking an eye, then it is those regimes who plan and instigate the war who really turn them into war machines. Therefore, these fighters are actually "victims". They are forced or Being deceived or instigated to lose one by one the character, conscience, and humanity that they were born with...
If in most war machines that fanatically regard aggression and plunder as normal, there are also some righteous who are calm and rational against war, then they will be more difficult and miserable.
If Fried in the movie "Our Fathers" hates aggression and passive war will be regarded as treason, and dying for the country is just a war criminal; like the mother in "Jojo's Rabbit", who daringly dedicated herself to fighting the war, The captain silently admired her courage but did not dare to do justice for her, and finally exchanged the same courage to die in exchange for the stability of conscience; for example, in "Persian Language Lesson", the chief chef, with an ordinary restaurant dream, worked hard to learn the language, but inexplicably became a Nazi.
