After acquaintance with this picture, the joy remains in the soul from the realization that life is truly fair. As the name suggests - "The sun shines for everyone", we add on our own - who lives like a human being.

In our reviews and reviews of modern films, despite the Oscars, awards and other external husks they have earned, we often express rather harsh negative assessments. The reason is simple: all official film critics discuss the actors' play, plot, special effects, etc., but do not touch on the most important thing - what attitudes are formed by this or that picture, or, in other words, "what does it teach?"

This area is literally taboo. The main quality criterion in today's artificially created system is the level of emotional impact, which, in fact, reflects only how effectively certain ideas and meanings are conveyed to the viewer. But the ideas and meanings themselves remain in the shadows. As a result, under a stream of endless applause addressed to outright immorality and vulgarity, the mass audience gradually ceases to distinguish between good and bad, useful and harmful, beautiful and ugly. In modern parlance, he is becoming more and more tolerant. The situation is saved by the fact that still, albeit not often, a good movie is released. And, in addition, in Russia, a generation brought up on Soviet films and cartoons is still actively participating in public life, which can, on occasion, reasonably "put in place" another lover of Fizruk or Real boys. One of these Soviet films, even the periodic viewing of which allows you to return to an adequate perception of the world, we will tell in this review. The painting is called very iconic - "The sun shines for everyone" (1959).

The sun shines on everyone

In the center of the plot is Lieutenant Nikolai Savelyev. The war has just ended, and the main character is already making plans for the future, how he will return to his favorite work - to the profession of a teacher. He is well aware that the school of life that he happened to go through must be passed on to future generations.

But events unfold in a different scenario. Despite the surrender that had already taken place, the Germans rushed into the attack. Savelyev's battery takes on a battle, during which, due to the cowardice of one of the sergeants, Nikolai is wounded and loses his sight. Now he has to pass one more test - the test for the title of "Human". We will not reveal the further plot, so that it would be interesting for you to watch the film. Let's go through only the most basic points to which you should pay attention. First of all, this is the image of the main character, a Man with a capital letter, whose happiness depends on his ability to participate in a common cause. It is very important that the same image personifies the teacher's profession in the film.

When viewing, pay attention to how the picture shows such fundamental concepts as honor, duty, conscience, love. Love is not only in the relationship between a man and a woman, but in a broader sense - love for life, for people. What is in the first place for the main character, what is in the second. Compare the images on display with what is shown on Russian television around the clock. Probably, for many teenagers today it is even difficult to imagine, but the film has no humor at all, not a single joke in an hour and a half. And this is not because our grandparents did not know how to joke, there are simply topics or situations in which humor is inappropriate in any form. The issues of human relations and the search for their place in life, touched upon in the picture, relate precisely to this area.

Unfortunately, this film, like many Soviet films, suffers from the presence of scenes with alcohol and tobacco. Apparently, at that time the problem was not so acute and the attitude towards it was too permissive, for which now in many respects we have to pay. However, if you are capable of filtering such information, then, despite this observation, be sure to watch the movie. The main semantic messages of the picture and the displayed images of attitudes, ideals and values will definitely be useful to everyone, starting from adolescence. After getting to know the picture, the joy remains in the soul from the realization that life is truly fair. As the name suggests - "The sun shines for everyone", we add on our own - who lives like a human being.
