swan song

Shocked, moved, admired! These are the first few words that popped into my head! Conquered by the Indian philosophy of life and doing things, I know that I have the highest respect for the Indians. When I just read it, I hated the Americans. They deprived the Indians of their homes and implemented a genocide plan. Even Lincoln and Jefferson, who were revered by the Americans, implemented this policy without reservation. I remember that it was said in an American documentary that the survival of the Indians relied heavily on the American bison. In order to reduce the frontal confrontation, the American soldiers who retired from the Civil War went to hunt and kill the bison, so as to achieve the purpose of starving the Indians. The means are really cruel today. Later, my hatred thoughts gradually ceased to prevail, and reason slowly reentered my heart. I say two points.

The first is Indian philosophy. They advocate nature, fear nature, and have faith in their hearts. The most touching thing is about friendship. After watching this movie, I think of a classmate I have known since junior high school, my good buddy, I told him my thoughts today: it tells the story of Indians and white Americans. When the white Americans and the Indians have in-depth contact, they find that if the Indians think you are his friend, it is a lifetime friendship, and they are willing to give everything, even their lives, for their friends! The more precious things are, the more they will be given to friends. I suddenly felt that this core of value is very noble and admired! I just think of you, brother. After so many years, you are still a good brother. You have contributed money and ideas. Friendship for such a long time has stood the test. If we are like the Indians, you believe me and I trust you. This is not a problem. Is the world worth it!

The second is the American spirit. Without courage, this movie would not exist, and there would not be a strong America today. Everyone in history makes mistakes, but it takes a lot of courage to face it head-on, and it has won the consensus of the whole society, which is very rare. It is worth our country to learn!

Briefly explain why the Americans are exterminating the Indians. Personal understanding is the conflict between two civilizations. It is related to survival and value concepts. When two incompatible concepts of discipline collide violently, bloodshed will inevitably occur. However, the social form of the Indians is separated from the whole world tide and backward. Being beaten is inevitable, and their primitive and persistent concept of survival intensifies their revenge. In the end, Victory will stand on the side with advanced technology.

    The American Civil War was not fought beautifully at all, but on the contrary it was very wretched. It was based on the massacre of Indians. The development was bloody. The wolf howling at the end of the film is too elegant.

    The soundtrack of the cattle hunting section is magnificent. This dance with wolves actually deserves its name, and the others have "a lot of smiles", "kick birds" and "stand with fists." very funny.

Dances with Wolves quotes

  • [Ten Bears shows Dunbar an old Spanish Conquistador's helmet]

    Ten Bears: [in Lakota; subtitled] The white men who wore this came around the time of my grandfather's grandfather. Eventually we drove them out. Then the Mexicans came. But they do not come here any more. In my own time, the Texans. They have been like all the others. They take without asking. But I think you are right. I think they will keep coming. When I think of that, I look at this helmet. I don't know if we are ready for these people. Our country is all that we have, and we will fight to keep it.
