Reason for the list: After watching this film, you will have doubts: Who is the real general, the actor or Patton? Comments This film is as difficult as it is to evaluate Patton himself, because for a unique person like Patton, any evaluation is redundant and powerless. Let’s first watch Patton through the film and experience the film through Patton.

The leading actor, George Scott, interpreted the role with great thoroughness both on and off screen - his textbook-level speech in the opening 6 minutes, his performance was simply possessed by the "violent military god" Patton. He won the Oscar for this film, but he did not go to accept the award at all, and relentlessly denounced Hollywood's feast as nothing more than "ridiculous sensuality."

From this point of view, George Scott is indeed the best candidate to play Patton. This film is said to be Nixon's favorite film - the late 1960s and early 1970s were a dark era in American history.

《! Tiger! Tiger! "Tiger"

Reason for being on the list: "Tiger!" is the only World War II film in which the United States and Japan compromise with each other. Tiger! Tiger! "Also known as "The Attack on Pearl Harbor", this film was co-produced by the United States and Japan. It blended the views of both Japan and the United States and reproduced the whole story of the Pearl Harbor incident. Chinese audiences are familiar with this incident and this film. It was this incident that completely involved the United States in World War II. The United States' participation in the war accelerated the demise of Japanese militarism and also helped the Chinese people's war of resistance to a certain extent. However, the United States' participation in the war also made World War II unprecedentedly tragic, especially the two atomic bombs that directly led to Japan's surrender. They are eternal scars and warnings in the history of human civilization.

After the end of World War II, another 25 years have passed, and the former enemies: the United States and Japan, can finally sit down calmly and use movies to jointly discuss the causes that triggered this human catastrophe.

Although "The Defense of Moscow" is a war film with grand scenes, it can still make people feel a lot.

From this sentence, it is not difficult to understand why the arrogant Nazi Germany suffered its first disastrous defeat since World War II.

Because he was the youngest of four brothers in the family, and all three of his brothers had been killed in action, General Marshall took the soldier back to his hometown as soon as possible to avoid another blow to the heroic mother. In fact, this is almost an order to exchange 8 lives for 1 life, because on a vast battlefield, looking for an ordinary soldier is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The soldiers who executed this order were also very dissatisfied with this, but they still Observed the soldier's code and obeyed the order.

In the film, there is not much entanglement with the eight-for-one question, but this question mark about the value of human life has deeply penetrated into people's hearts
