Spielberg describes the war-themed films on the Far East battlefield of World War II. The shooting techniques and story structure are stable, but the problem is in terms of perspective. It should be that every party in the war is a victim, but the understanding of war ends here. In order to save...

It is very puzzling that what this film is trying to reflect may be a brief introduction to a wartime alternative case. Young Bell is indeed outstanding in his acting skills. Bessie's changeable character and Jim's witty mind make them survive the war by luck. The pseudo-friendship at the beginning...

A movie worth watching, if you only go to the children's shoes for the big war scenes, you will be exempted. The best thing about this WWII film is its neutrality. The Japanese are not as stupid as pigs, or as ferocious as beasts. In the morning light, the ceremony of the kamikaze team seemed a...

With the outbreak of the Pacific War and the entry of Britain and the United States into the war, the lives of Westerners in Shanghai's overseas concessions also experienced great turmoil. 11-year-old Jamie is one of...

I only watched this movie once, on CCTV, but I couldn’t understand it at the time. I just thought the filming was very good, especially the scene in Shanghai Well, I was very impressed, because it is not seen in China. At that time, what the old society really looked like was rendered, but the...

I heard a long time ago that Spielberg directed an insulting film "Empire of the Sun" about Shanghai, and I finally got to see it today. The film was actually made in 1987, and now the child star has grown into a handsome guy. When those old scenes of Shanghai were presented to my eyes again, and I...

First of all, the Chinese people in the film are all negative images. I dare not say that the historical restoration is objective and true, although the film uses the perspective of a innocent child who is not a war-torn country. No matter what the director's reason is, political race or the box...

An "other" movie.

The first other is a foreigner living in Shanghai. In the midst of the war, foreigners in the concession area lived a very different life from the Chinese outside the area. They are in Shanghai during the war, but they are as leisurely as they are on vacation in their own kingdom....
