Chapter 80 Relive the nightmare

In "The Deer Hunter," Nick is so traumatized by Russian roulette that, to make up for his failure, he relives the nightmare. In the Oscar-winning film "The Deer Hunter", there is a very exciting gambling game of Russian roulette.It is to put a bullet in the chamber of a revolver, and two or more people take turns aiming the gun at their temple trigger, and let others bet on whether the round is live or empty. .When the film was released in theaters and later on television, viewers imitated this Russian roulette game and unfortunately died instantly. In the film, three sympathetic young workers, Michael, Nick and Steve, go to the Vietnam battlefield where they don't know why they are fighting thousands of miles away.In a tragic battle, the three were captured at the same time and imprisoned in a water prison in the tropical jungle.The Viet Cong used the captured U.S. troops as Russian roulette tools. In the inhuman and terrifying game of gambling, Nick and Steve were scared out of their wits and wept bitterly.Later, thanks to Michael's calmness and wit, he seized the critical opportunity to annihilate several Viet Cong and escape from the tropical jungle.But in that nightmarish game of Russian roulette, all three were deeply traumatized.

The most incredible thing is that after retiring, Nick actually lived in an underground casino in Saigon, wearing local costumes and a red scarf, performing Russian roulette for crazy gamblers to place bets on.At this time, he looked calm, with a graceful and cold posture holding the gun, and a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.When Steve traveled thousands of miles from the United States to Saigon and found Nick in an underground casino, he just pulled the trigger that killed him, and the film ended when Nick fell to the ground with his unfortunate eyes open. Why would Nick repeat the game of life in the underground casino?Maybe it was because he couldn't face the self that trembled at the gunpoint in the past. This situation had severely traumatized his mind. In order to have a chance to make up for the failure, he restructured the harsh environment and encountered it again, hoping to recover. He dominates and controls the power.

To relive the nightmare is to soothe the trauma of the soul.
