The story is not the most important

"Grave of the Fireflies" My personal essay on watching movies. I didn't cry if I was a serious film critic, but I was very sad because I thought it was too cruel. Maybe the real war is countless times more cruel than this, but when the war comes, it won't It doesn't matter whether you are a good person or a bad person, an adult or a child, no matter how cruel you are, you will be treated equally. The tragic fate begins with the emperor's decision. . . It's all tears, hurting each other, and it's the people who suffer! I am a Chinese, and when I see a story like Japan, the five flavors are mixed, maybe I can say something like some angry youth deserves it, but I really can't say it. I can only blame the ducai who are in power, so what if they say a few words of xnm? to no avail! The only thing that can be done is to remember these histories and one day tell the next generation what happened. Watching this movie was very depressing. I felt like I was thinking of reading Lei Feng's story when I was a child. I still remember opening the book and Lei Feng's mother being hanged on the rope. Said, it was too cruel and too painful, and since then I have never dared to touch that book, but this movie gave me the same feeling as an adult, I was not moved, and I don't know why Someone is moved, what does this have to do with being moved? It's more cruelty, fear, fear from the bottom of my heart, even when I write this, my skin gets goosebumps. Sitting in front of the computer, I will never be able to understand the kind of bereaved family who can't get enough to eat. Painful, I really can't bear to watch it for the second time, just like "Nobody Knows", different time and space backgrounds, but the same heartbreaking! In fact, putting aside the topics under the shadow of these big wars, someone asked if this story was too sensational, although I know what director Hayao Miyazaki wants to express, the story is a carrier, and we can think of what the core is, but this The story is understood with the eyes of an adult. I can't help but think. If I were this child and I had such a sister, what would I do? Can you do better than him? Everything a 14-year-old can do when the war kills his parents and burns down his home, I saw someone give one star in the comments, and what he said is right from his point of view, but Are we sometimes too self-centered? You can think this way because you are an adult, you can think this way because you don't know what a real war looks like, and all the decisions this kid made in the movie are not justified, the director just made a movie It's a possibility, and what the friend's film critic said is not true either, because it's also a possibility, and this kind of discussion doesn't make much sense. I have an idea, if he is

    Why do you live in poverty? Because the United States bombed you. Why did the United States bomb you? Because the people you bombed first... Then you shouted in the film why you had to surrender unconditionally? Because you have reached an agreement with the United States not to try the emperor’s crimes. As ordinary people, you yourself would not believe it...Just say that you, Japan, have never thought that launching a war to invade other countries is a crime against humanity, right? ! Isn't that what it deserves. .

    Many years later, the reviewers were also a lot more mean. What I realized is that this is not an anti-war film, nor is it to celebrate the optimism of the brothers and sisters or to mourn their suffering. It is a depiction of the distorted mental outlook of the Japanese during the war. He has blind confidence in militarism and waits for salvation with peace of mind, but deliberately closes his eyes and covers his ears to ignore the suffering of others. In the final analysis, it is more like those self-exposed short private novels, a kind of excuse in the name of confession.
