Children of Glory
Children of Glory
I have positive opinion about this movie, because I like to watch documental movies which
based on real events. It was very interesting to watch how main characters were improving their
personalities during of movie. For example, main character of this movie is Szabó Karcsi, he was
regular professional athlete of water polo and he was playing in Hungarian national team. In the
beginning of the movie we can watch how Hungarian national team and USSR team were
playing water polo against each other, but unfortunately this match was corrupted by USSR and
Hungarian water polo team lost. After this match Hungarian players were fighting with USSR
players in locker room, because Hungarian players didn’t like referee’s decisions during of
match. Hungarian players were going to Budapest after match and we could notice that
Hungarian players felt uncomfortable themselves during of trip because they were afraid of
people who work in governments. They were afraid because these days people who worked in
governments were with USSR ideas and unfortunately these ideas discriminated Hungarians.
During of movie we can notice how USSR hurt people and not even only in Hungary, for this
reason students of one university decided to fight against governments and USSR. Then Szabó
Karcsi met Falk Viki. Main character tried to get attention from Viki, but she almost rejected
him because she was against governments and he was playing in national athlete team, it means
that he was afraid to be against governments because he could be kick out from national team.
But he fell in love with Viki so much that decided to be against governments with her.
Unfortunately because of these protests governments attacked civilians and our main characters
tried to fight against them. In conclusion Szabó were kicked out from national team, however he
came back to national team for winning golden medal in Olympics games by winning USSR
team in finals and Viki was killed by governments because she was against governments. I like
this movie because we got many messages like people have to fight sometimes for their country
for this reason Viki and Szabó were fighting. Another main message for my opinion is that
honor means more than benefits sometimes, because if we don’t fight for honor we can lose
something even more like our people and rights. Also I really appreciated work of director and
actors, whole movie was interesting to watch and during of this movie I got many emotions like
joy, sadness, anxiety for my opinion if viewer get these emotions from watching movie it means
