Super Soldier - "First Blood" Trilogy

In the 1980s, a movie made an American movie star in China became a household name. He is Sylvester Stallone, and the movie he starred in is called "First Blood." In China, which has experienced body taboos for many years, the character Rambo, played by Stallone, showed the Chinese people the beauty of muscular men for the first time. In a rather domineering way, he inspired the Chinese people's aesthetic instinct for men that had been suppressed for many years. The male bodybuilding trend in China in the 1980s originated from this movie called "Rambo". This film, together with other film and television works of the same period, such as "Garrison Suicide Squad", directly spawned a violent reaction between personal heroism and Chinese reality. The concept of collectivism that had always been emphasized and followed was suddenly challenged. This reaction has produced mixed social phenomena, and even contributed to violent incidents to some extent. Its influence is still felt in the dark side to this day. But 20 years later, we can't help but still have doubts. Can an American commercial movie and a muscular star with little acting skills really influence an era with its superficial audio-visual stimulation? "First Blood", those images that have been shown countless times on Chinese screens, Rambo, this silent, muscular man with a dull expression, after re-reading this movie and this star, can we give an answer? What else moved us?

In the 1980s, a movie made an American movie star a household name in China. He is Sylvester Stallone, and the movie he starred in is called "First Blood."

The concept of collectivism that had always been emphasized and followed was suddenly challenged. This reaction has produced mixed social phenomena, and even contributed to violent incidents to some extent. Its influence is still felt in the dark side to this day.

But 20 years later, we can't help but still have doubts. Can an American commercial movie and a muscular star with little acting skills really influence an era with its superficial audio-visual stimulation? ? "First Blood", those images that have been shown countless times on Chinese screens, Rambo, this silent, muscular man with a dull expression, after re-reading this movie and this star, can we give an answer? What else moved us?

From 1982 to 1988, "First Blood" filmed three episodes in total. By analyzing these three series of movies, perhaps we can find the answer.

With the soft, slightly sentimental music, the dark red title of "First Blood" appeared on a picture of a desolate country road in winter. A man wearing a green military uniform and jeans came from a distance. At the beginning, Rambo, the retired special forces soldier, did not seem to have much disharmony with this peaceful and beautiful town.

He came to see his old comrades, but the answer he received gave the entire film a grim tone.

In the beginning, the world in "First Blood" was calm on the surface but pregnant with manic waves. Behind Rambo's taciturn character is a bloody war. That war seemed to have left imperceptible yet unforgettable scars on this character.

The movie is not too immersed in inexplicable sadness, and the villain of the movie soon appears. Sheriff Weir, the ruler of the town, walked out of the police station door with a bomb sign. The fat man tightened his belt, burped and walked down the steps. He greeted people and then got into the police car with great satisfaction. This is how the story begins.

It is necessary to introduce the historical background of this movie. In 1975, the 10-year Vietnam War ended. Suffering a complete defeat, the United States withdrew hundreds of thousands of its troops from the battlefield. Compared with the excitement on the battlefield, the situation of these American soldiers after returning home can be described as miserable. Because in the United States, after years of war suffering and anti-war movements, people have become deeply disgusted with the war itself. And these retired American soldiers are even more embarrassing. In the eyes of the radical left, they are stupid killing machines, while in the eyes of the conservative right, they have become scapegoats for the failure of the war. The reality of being in trouble makes them unable to even find a decent job. The huge gap from fighting heroes to social outcasts makes them seem to have walked into the wasteland of life, and their personalities and psychology have been greatly traumatized. In this way, veterans of the Vietnam War have become the most unpopular group of people in American society, and are also regarded as the most unstable factors.

However, Rambo, who is wearing an old military uniform, is obviously not a person who does random things for no reason. He just looked a little lonely. But in the eyes of Sheriff Weir, loneliness is equivalent to unfriendliness. He made a judgment on the person in front of him based on his first impression...

The sequel to "First Blood" begins with a The explosion began, but this was not on the battlefield, but in the quarry, where Rambo was sent to do hard labor after being captured. Obviously, he is still suffering from injustice. The cold police and the sweaty Rambo indicate that this character is still placed on the opposite side of the world.

However, the director of the film was obviously not prepared to continue to make a fuss about the confrontation between Rambo and the world. Soon the opportunity for Rambo to be released from prison came, and Colonel Tripman brought him a new one. mission.

The sequel to "First Blood" was filmed in 1985, a full 10 years after the end of the Vietnam War. Regarding that war, people are more talking about its follow-up issues, such as the American prisoners of war left behind in Vietnam. This sequel movie is taking advantage of this hot spot. The producers obviously hope that the superhero on the screen, Rambo, can help Americans solve this huge problem and at the same time make a lot of money. overflow. The movie is originally an artificial dream, and it is understandable to do so.

The sequel to "First Blood" continues many of the characteristics of its predecessor. For example, in terms of character setting, Rambo is still placed in a relatively lonely position. By his side, Colonel Tripman was the only person he trusted. The other characters are mostly snobs. Notice how similar the person in charge of Operation Marshall is to Sheriff Weir from the first episode.

Here, the film emphasizes another very distinctive feature of the "First Blood" film series, which is the disdain for high technology represented by computers. Rambo is a classical hero. The era in which he believed in relying on body and morality to win has passed. However, he still sticks to his position and dignity. This may be the real reason why he is incompatible with this utilitarian world. .

Rambo set out, and he did not forget to bring his beloved dagger, which was his sharp soul living in the past.

Rambo had an accident while skydiving. In desperation, he threw away all the equipment he carried. This also includes vital communications equipment. Rambo was left alone at the very beginning of the operation. This is of course a desperate situation that the director of the film deliberately created for Rambo. Because only in this way can Rambo truly become the Rambo in "First Blood" again, and become that invincible lone hero...

In "First Blood" "In a hero film like this, the hero's appearance is one of the most critical links.

Just like the appearance of famous actors in Chinese Peking Opera, it must win the unanimous praise. According to Chinese parlance, this is also known as the opening of the show. That is to say, you must rely on powerful dramatic conflicts or touching scenes to quickly capture the audience's attention in the first few minutes. The third episode of the movie series "First Blood" filmed in 1988 also opens in this way. Stallone, who is more muscular, is about to start his fighting journey again.

This action of reaching out to pull up the downed opponent seems to indicate some change in the character of Rambo.

After winning, Rambo left with a young monk. This is Thailand, a Buddhist country, and Rambo seems to have found some kind of spiritual peace and sustenance. However, the appearance of Colonel Tripman means that Rambo's peaceful life is destined to end.

Bob, you can tell from his appearance that this is another character who has been in the same line since Sheriff Weir. This ruthless bureaucrat will give Rambo another life-or-death mission.

This mission is obviously another one full of geopolitics and Cold War color. The opponent continues the setting in the second episode and is still the Soviets. It also involves another war taking place in Asia - the war in Afghanistan. We need to understand the relevant history. From 1979 to 1989, the former Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan and fought a brutal 10-year war with the Afghan resistance. The third episode of "First Blood" was filmed in 1988. The war in Afghanistan was not over yet. For the sake of its own national interests, the United States secretly gave huge support to the Afghan resistance forces. Peace-loving people all over the world, including Americans, have always condemned the aggression of the former Soviet Union. Supporting the war in Afghanistan has become a hot topic around the world, and has also become a hot topic for Hollywood movies. This sequel film appears against this background.

Despite his righteous reasons, Rambo rejected Colonel Tripman.

He walks towards the pagoda under construction. This shot indicates that he is trying to rebuild his spiritual home through Buddhism.

But is Rambo really calm? The waving movements of his hands seemed to express something, and Colonel Tripman also walked into the pagoda. He is the person who knows Rambo best in this movie series...
