"It's no secret, I'm a girl, I never thought that watching war movies would be so top-notch..."
This is the heartfelt feeling of a young female audience member after watching "Chosin Lake's Water Gate Bridge".
War movies have a more male audience in people's minds, but it turns out that this is probably our "stereotype".
From the pre-sale box office women, to the fact that the proportion of men and women in the movie scene is not much different, a good war film does not distinguish between the audience group.
According to what I have seen with my own eyes, there are primary school students and elderly people on the movie scene, most of them are family members, who could have imagined that a war film with the main theme could be loved by such a wide range of groups in the family reunion festival?
With the blessing of family and country feelings, war movies are no longer exclusive to men' movies.
Women may not be able to count the equipment and weapons in the film, but they can also empathize with the plot, their tears are lower, and they wipe their tears more frequently during the movie.
Or how to say, women are sensual animals...
In fact, the tears in this movie are gender-neutral, and the audience who has seen it understands it.
Lei Gong has gone, and the staying power is still there
"Chosin Lake" and "Chosin Lake No Shui Mun Bridge" are originally in the same vein, but due to the time problem, they are divided into two parts. Viewers who have watched the first part know that the veteran soldier "Lei Gong" in the Seventh Company was killed in the process of transferring the identification bullet.
In "Watergate Bridge", the Seventh Company encountered the artillery battalion on the way to the march, and the two sides laughed a few words in pain, and the Yang Camp Commander played by Geng Le looked for Lei Gong's figure in the crowd: Right, what about Old Lei?
The atmosphere freezes instantly.
Commander Yang immediately understood, and did not make a sound, and his eyes were foggy.
Unexpectedly, the first Lei Gong, who made everyone cry, became the first tear point in "Watergate Bridge".
Lei Gong, who has experienced countless wars and has rich combat experience, is unlikely to die in the eyes of everyone... But he really wasn't there, still in such a painful way.
Seeing that even Lei Gong did not hold up, Yang Yingchang, who had originally teased "you think the shells are my family", shouted at Wu Qianli and promised to give fire support to the Seventh Company.
They didn't even have time to grieve, and they were about to throw themselves into the next battle.
What is turning grief into strength, that is.
This scene also reflects the cruelty of the battlefield from the side.
Wu Qianli pinched his face several times
The battle scenes in "Watergate Bridge" are much more intense than the first one, in other words, we are not able to see the literary drama, but the film is still in the tense battle, interspersed with emotional details.
For example, Wu Qianli's care for his younger brother Wu Wanli.
Wu Qianli, played by Wu Jing, pinched his brother's face several times in "Changjin Lake".
The first time was to recognize the newly adult little brother when he returned home, and the pinching of his face at this time evoked the memories of the brothers' childhood, which was an expression of the joy of reunion.
The second time was when Wu Qianli received the order to leave home in a hurry, and this time the pinching of his face was a reluctance to his family.
The third time was wu Wanli's affirmation of him after many battle trainings.
In "Watergate Bridge", Wu Qianli pinched his face again, and this time, it was his brother who experienced the baptism of fire and blood, and the battle was also on the verge of life and death. The brother finally handed him the whistle with confidence, smiling and pinching his face with tears in his eyes... This is a tacit understanding between brothers, and it is also the final trick.
The joy and affirmation of his brother's growth, the reluctance and pity for him, and the hope that he will return alive... All kinds of emotions are integrated into this face pinching action.
When Wu Jing pinched Yi Qianxi's face and saw the audience laughing, he did not expect that this action finally turned into a large killing weapon that poked the tear glands.
How much the elder brother was distressed about his younger brother, and he was also going to endure the baptism of war, afraid that before he could grow up, he would be killed by the long-sighted artillery fire.
The deep feelings of the brothers, there are not too many lines to express, but no one is not moved.
You are also my brother, and the people of the Seventh Company are my brothers
Although the feelings of brothers are touching, the tacit understanding between comrades-in-arms is not inferior.
Seven companies help the artillery battalion to grab shells, and the artillery battalion helps the seven companies to cover the fire, which is the tacit understanding between the teams;
Pinghe and others were trapped at the bottom of the bridge, and Wu Qianli led people to drop enemy fire on the bridge deck, which was a cooperation between individual operations.
This side attracts the attention of the enemy, and the other side touches the command headquarters to blast from the inside... Every warrior is reaching his full potential and fighting for the last drop of blood.
Pinghe felt ashamed of Wu Wanli because of the sacrifice of Wu Baili in the past, and he could not call him a little brother so naturally.
He knew that the battle was extremely hard, and if he didn't say anything about it, he might not have a chance.
But I got Wu Wanli's heartfelt reconciliation: Wu Baili is my brother, you are also my brother, and all the people in the Seven Companies are my brother!
On the battlefield, the lives of the warriors rely on each other, and what is more tacit and sincere than this feeling of death.
The tears are dense because they once existed so vividly
We still remember the sounds and smiles of each warrior in the first part of "Chosin Lake" and the story of them.
Pinghe is silent, Yu Congrong is cheerful and optimistic, Mei Sheng treasures his daughter's photos, and always remembers to go back to her homework...
And when the team marches to the Watergate Bridge, because the disparity in equipment between the enemy and us is too large, they will all face a harsh test, how much will it cost to blow up the bridge once? What about frying three times?
The most tear-jerking part of the film is that we are all too familiar with these faces, and every time they are in danger, I have not once not clenched my fists, and when they have sacrificed one after another, I have not been sad once.
Yeah, they all once existed so vividly.
What is even more sad is that the battlefield shown in the film is still so cruel, and the real battlefield is even more cruel than the movie.
Some of the volunteers who spilled their blood on the Korean battlefield were fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers who were new to war, some had families and rooms with wives and children, and some were veterans who had been recalled...
But on the battlefield, they have only one identity: soldiers who strictly enforce orders. There is only one goal: to punch open with one punch, so as not to have a hundred punches coming.
When the lights were on, we went home seven times in a row
The focus of "Watergate Bridge" is to blow up the bridge three times, because the seventh company has been injured, the battle scene is more intense and tragic than the first part, which is one of the reasons why the female audience mentioned at the beginning of the article saw the "upper head".
But I still don't think the word "on the top" is inappropriate.
Too entertaining a lexical expression is disrespectful to the ancestors.
Although the war scenes are indeed shocking, the short engagement is indeed exciting. But after the war, the wreckage and smoke of war, the lives and deaths of the soldiers, are all painful as far as the eye can see.
This can't help but make everyone reflect on the war and cherish the hard-won peace.
War films are not only restoring history, but also commemorating the ancestors, making us feel the cruelty of war, and only then can we truly think about the significance of anti-war.
Now peace is prosperous, and thousands of homes are lit up. Let us go home in succession, and take home all the ancestors who died on the battlefield.
