@itsjustcinema: Mori Masaki’s “Barefoot Gen” is one of the most harrowing animated movies EVER made 🇯🇵 #whattowatch #cinema #filmtok #movierecommendation #movierecommendation
Guys Japan as a country did a lot of truly horrific things, but that doesn't mean that they deserve to have atomic bombs dropped on two big cities filled with a lot of innocent civilians

These comments are not it. We're all aware of the war crimes of imperialist Japan during WWII. However it is also true that the US dropping two nukes on civilian cities as a retaliation for an attack on a navel base is a war crime too.

What gives this story even more depth is the fact that the original manga, which the movie is based on, is written and drawn by a Hiroshima bombing survivor Keiji Nakazama. He was 6 years old when the bomb was dropped.

The hardest part is it’s the authors true experience of survival.

I'd hope in these times especially my fellow Americans could recognize a government can do horrible things but civilians don't deserve the brunt of the retribution for those actions, but I guess there is a reason AI is on the rise and it's not because people are actually engaging their brains 🤷♂️

What Japan did was not okay, but what USA did is unforgivable, disgusting and shameful.

oppenheimer is the complex moral prequel
barefoot gen is the disturbing and horrible truth of it
godzilla is the embodiment, the consequences and the aftermath of humanities destruction

Believe me when I tell you that the destruction of Hiroshima is only the 2nd most upsetting scene in the movie.

This guy's story telling is top-notch, so much so that I think I might be disappointed if I actually watched these movies.

Japan never likes to talk about how they were researching a bomb through the whole war.
