I recently saw the Chinese film called City of Life and Death....Nanking 1938. I cried...I don't cry over films very often, but this re-creation of mans inhumanity to man got to me. Rabe did what he could for the people and we honour him for his efforts, but a film shouldn't be about just what one man did. His staff, the people that trusted him, the Japanese atrocities and the few Japanese soldiers who were against what happened, are as much about what happened as Rabe himself. It left me cold to think that the world let it all happen with a blink of an eye, but even today, we allow ourselves to be shocked? over events like Rawanda or the Congo or Iraq with the Kerds. We don't have much feeling for what has happened, really. It is so far away, it looks atrocious, but it doesn't affect us, so why should we be concerned by what has happened. It's only when it is on our doorstep that we know what it's like. I give the Chinese film, which honours Rabe a score of 10!!! They were there!!!!
