Band of Brothers Unfortunately Still Glorifies War
Band of Brothers Unfortunately Still Glorifies War - Having seen it through again I love the documentary style, but then I realized I was being deceived. It still glorifies war for those who survive. They want Winters to get an even bigger medal than he already got. Giving medals for killing people has got to be looked at. I don't deny the hell those men went through, and how terrible Hitler and the German army were, but in this picture the Germans are pictured unrealistically. The German officer is allowed to keep his sidearm, his gun? Come on. I have read the real story by a Jewish resistance fighter and they knew for a fact how the German officers bragged about the number of Jews they had killed with their hand guns. You cannot believe the atrocities committed by German officers and men. BofB gives the impression that German soldiers were just doing their duty like American soldiers. There is the surrender speech of a German officer to show his men are just like the American men, a band of brothers. So I don't get that this movie is realistic as to what the Germans were like under Hitler and Nazism. Also, we hear only about the old soldiers who made it in civilian life, but where is Guarnere, the guy who had his leg blown off? Where are the others who survived but are casualties of war in civilian life? Did I miss Guarnere's old age story? I hate to think what the effect of this movie is on young men who might want a war to fight in and survive in. Seems like the film is saying, we can't glorify the Viet Nam War but we can glorify the Second World War. All Quiet On The Western Front is still the best war movie, to my mind, because it shows the realism of the soldiers' minds and not just the action. The big question still is, what in the human psyche makes people go to war and kill each other? What happens to all the young soldiers that simply are not good killers, that are not mentally equipped to kill other human beings? They lost a lot of replacements in Easy Company, but did they ever say it in the film that most of these victims maybe were not cut out to kill other human beings? Did they say that these easily dead in war might be the best sort of human beings? War is hell, but are there any war films yet that show the hell that is war? I hope teachers and parents and friends will help people see that Band of Brothers has its difficult issues, as well as its tough but good character points. Killing is still killing, no matter how you portray it. To be truly realistic in war you have to show men's minds. The educated men in this film were laughed at. Can you believe it? No talk from them whatsoever! Who wrote this film anyway? Who directed it, produced it, and what was the point?
