After watching Pearl Harbor, known as the Titanic of War, I really have the urge to watch it again, even though tears are still hanging on my cheeks. Yes, Pearl Harbor is really beautiful, not only because of the beautiful heroine, handsome hero and the beautiful scenery of Pearl Harbor, but also because of its exquisite production and good technology, which is worth seeing.
Generally speaking, the biggest feature of this work is the use of contrast, and the atmosphere is better rendered. The perfect combination of the two has the wonderful effect of this work. Several scenes: Japanese fighter planes fly over the baseball field, and American children are playing baseball happily; The plane flew over the hillside, and American children were happily picking wild flowers; The plane flew over the football field and the children were playing football to their heart's content. A group of children dressed as angels are playing in the forest ... This tense atmosphere of war is in sharp contrast to the happy and relaxed atmosphere of peace. The happiness before the war is in sharp contrast to the misery after the war, which reflects the tense atmosphere of the war at that time and implies the misery after the war. These lovely children are playing happily and living happily, but they don't know what news these planes will bring, which makes the audience feel a little sad, heartbroken and angry ...
When discussing the form of Japan at that time, the Japanese emperor said that the United States cut off the oil supply, just like cutting off Japan's "lifeline." He looked back at the children flying kites on the hillside with goodwill in his eyes, then he turned around and decided to wage war cautiously. Another scene is that when Japanese fighter planes fly over the football field, American children who are playing rugby look up and see Japanese pilots flying at low altitude waving to them, indicating that they are "dangerous" here. These small scenes and small moves show that the essence of war is not killing people or hurting innocent lives, but for the next generation and a better life in the next region. Small scenes and small movements are all exquisite "pens".
Although the war is cruel and heartless, another point of this film is the most beautiful thing in the world-love. Movies show people that love is great and its power is infinite. "Whenever I look at the afterglow of the sun in the west, I always hope to send warmth to my lover in the distance." This is a sentence from Evelyn's letter to Rafe. This simple sentence contains deep affection, warmth and Evelyn's endless love for Rafe. After Rafe fell into the sea, the only belief that supported him to survive was "to return to Evelyn alive". The only strength that supported him to fight death was the power of his love with Evelyn, and the only person who aroused his fighting spirit was his favorite person-Evelyn.
As Rafe later told Evelyn, Evelyn saved him and she gave him a second life.
Of course, this film not only shows the greatness of love, but also shows the greatness of friendship. Danny was depressed when he learned that Rafe had crashed. When he recalled his feelings with Rafe, every word was full of affection, including sadness and endless thoughts about Rafe. When he learned that Rafe had come back alive, he was excited and at a loss, which reflected his dilemma in love and friendship. On the other hand, Rafe was very angry when he learned that Danny had robbed his favorite person, Evelyn. However, at the beginning of the war, he encouraged him, supported him as always, and taught him how to escape from enemy planes. When the fuel was exhausted and forced to land, he found Japanese troops. He loudly informed "Danny not to land with the Japanese". He didn't think about his own life and death, but hoped that his friends would be safe. Even when Danny's plane crashed, he rushed to save him despite the bullets, but forgot the Japanese around him and was finally surrounded. Curiously, when he saw Danny being tied up and was bent on saving him, he shot and killed the man who was tying Danny up, but forgot that he was at the enemy's gun. On the other hand, Danny saw that Rafe was about to be shot, stood up and blocked Rafe's body, and died ... If these can't explain friendship, then.
People are moved not only by great love and great friendship, but also by American conscience. When Rafe left Evelyn to support Britain, the first thing he did when he got off the train was not to go to his dormitory to rest, but to ask the commander to take him to see his plane. When the battle alarm sounded, Rafe and his comrades rushed out of the barracks. Rafe was told that the oil pipe was broken and had not been repaired, but Rafe resolutely rushed to the plane, even though he knew there was a danger of crashing. When the Pearl Harbor War broke out, the unsuspecting American troops were bombed, and the captain was covered in blood and drowned. He refused to close his eyes. He only closed his eyes when he was told that someone had arranged for the crew to evacuate and that someone was in charge of the ship. ...
Yes, Pearl Harbor not only has its unique attraction, but also has many characteristics. I believe you will sigh after reading it, "Pearl Harbor is indeed a wonderful movie, an intriguing work, and a work that you can never get tired of watching."
