Analysis of war filmsEven if the films “Battleship Potemkin”, “From Here to Eternity” and “Saving Private Ryan » are all films based on military life during the war. Over time, variation in time periods and culture has made each film very different. These differences do not take away from the impact the films had on their audiences at the time or the messages they each tried to convey. The gruesome images and heartbreaking storylines helped evoke strong emotions and patriotic feeling among audiences, allowing filmmakers to convey their truths. Through these films, we are magically transported to several dark periods in world history and we experience the pain, fear, isolation and ultimately triumph of these soldiers' lives. The film "Battleship Potemkin" was filmed in 1925 and was based on a fictional story about a mutiny aboard a military ship in 1905 and the result. It's an amazing film if you think about the era and atmosphere in which it was made. This is definitely a film with a political message and agenda. It shows how common soldiers of the Soviet Union rose up to overthrow the Tsarist Navy despite being forced to exist in an unlivable environment and deplorable conditions. It also shows how the people rose up and took up the cause after the soldier's death. As the film continues, we see how ordinary citizens were massacred by the Tsar's army. The scene on the stairs where the little boy is trampled and then his mother is shot is very profound. There is no doubt that the filmmaker wants you to feel the horror of the situation. This film served the state by showing how the people chose communist life. It showed how they rose up against the Tsar's rule and fought for middle of paper......o thought about restraint. They tried to show us what exactly had happened if the soldiers had seen it. The opening scene of D-Day was very gruesome. It was extremely hard to witness the violent deaths of all these men. In the first films, they had to try to convey the same emotions with all the filming technologies available for the last one. I think the films that depicted World War I and World War II were different because in those films we had more pride. We knew what we were fighting for. People of the time supported their country and their soldiers. Today's movies are all about blood and explosions. There is very little pride in our country. We are not defending our soldiers as we should. We blame them when our government sends us to war. Our resentment war movies have become nothing more than action movies and have lost the loyalty and pride we once had..
