"Bomb Disposal Unit" Episode 2-2-3: Oscar for Best Picture. Real bomb disposal experts.
Watching his comrades being blown up alive, all the soldiers were greatly impacted, including Hawkeye. As a bomb disposal expert, he has successfully defused 873 bombs. Always calm, rational and cynical, he is on the verge of collapse. After returning to the camp, Hawkeye hid alone in the shower to rinse the blood from his body, and his emotions became increasingly unstable.
Hawkeye's service was about to end, and there were only two days left before he left the battlefield, but there were moths outside. An Iraqi man in a suit standing in the street with a bomb strapped to his body said he had been persecuted, had four children in his family and did not want to die, and begged the soldiers to remove the bomb from him. Hawkeye puts on an explosion-proof suit and is about to go over, but Falcon thinks it is a trap that will explode directly as soon as he is close to the bomb, but Hawkeye insists on going.
He walked up to the man, warned the other man with a gun to put his hands behind his head, and then crouched down to prepare to defuse the bomb. It was a ticking time bomb locked to the man with only five minutes left. Hawkeye took the wire cutter and began to cut the steel bar on the lock, but the lock was too difficult to cut. With 30 seconds left, he had just opened the first lock. No, there is no time. Hawkeye began apologizing to the man. The man was blown to pieces, and waves of gas swept around with rubble and shrapnel. At the end of the story, Hawkeye leaves the battlefield and returns home, but it is not difficult to see from the eyes that he has never left the battlefield, his family life is boring, and his wife is not interested in him on the battlefield at all.
In the end, he found that he could not adapt to this life, and still liked to defuse bombs. So he told his wife that there had been another explosion in Iraq, many children had lost their lives, and that a bomb disposal expert was needed there, and then Hawkeye said goodbye to his wife and embarked on the journey of bomb disposal again. There are no winners on the battlefield, and the damage is often mutual.
Many people may be puzzled, why did Hawkeye, who had suffered from war, return to the battlefield without hesitation? The reason may not be just that saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. The alienation of people by war prevents them from returning to modern civilization. And even more terrifyingly, he will even make soldiers fall into a fascination with war. As the opening line suggests: The urgency of war is addictive, intense and often deadly.
The film is called "Bomb Disposal Unit", and you can never imagine such a documentary style: the hard bridge war film turned out to be by a female director, her name is Catherine Bigelow. In addition to his role as a director, he is also the ex-wife of great director James Cameron. And what is particularly interesting is that the bomb disposal unit defeated James Cameron's "Avatar" at the 82nd Academy Awards, winning six awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay, and Catherine also became the first and only female director in Oscar history to win Best Director.
This Catherine, who does not love red clothes and arms, tells the world with the highly completed, hardcore and fierce "Bomb Disposal Unit": War films are not a man's patent!
