I hate that side of it also, but I can’t help but wonder if the rise of Bolshevism/Communism demoralized and dehumanized the population to the point where they were more susceptible to behave like that.
The machine must move forward regardless of collateral damage. God didn’t matter, morality didn’t matter, family, tradition and property didn’t matter. Everything good and decent was trampled underfoot to advance that evil system.
The number one thing I got out of this was how the people were demoralized and ground up in the system. The girl and the guy walking away at the end? They will probably be destroyed too just like Yuri, his wife and Lara.(no sympathy for Lara or Yuri though) No matter what, the machine keeps on running, fueled by human suffering.
I never went that deep.I never looked back at that movie.Some you take personal and I was pregnant with my 4th child.I almost lost her in the 4th month and the Doctor asked me if I had any other children.What the hell does that mean your going to lose your child and they put a cheater movie with the wife pregnant.She was born fine.Thanks for your comments.
