      Life, after stagnation will continue

      When I was in middle school, I watched Günter's masterpiece "The Tin Drum". Now I have forgotten the specific content of the novel, and I have never forgotten it. The author was able to turn a series of tragic things in life into "fun". When I wrote it, there was no concept of black humor at that...

      absurdity and metaphor

      "The grandmother's four large skirts represent the symbols of the four nationalities.

      Fish, geese, and kale represent the economy. Potatoes are land.

      Absurd and real, innocent and lewd, child and adult, confrontational and helpless, tin drums and screams are stupefying

      The first few minutes made me happy (I admit, I rewinded it twice), and it seems that the so-called "sexy" is universally applicable. Absurdity from start to finish, throughout. It's nerve-wracking. It is said that the original work is more exciting, but unfortunately it is a big tome. I don’t know if I can have the patience to read it.

    The Tin Drum quotes

    • Bebra: You must join us, you must!

      Oskar Matzerath: You know, Mr. Bebra... to tell the truth, I prefer to be a member of the audience, and let my little art flower in secret.

      Bebra: My dear Oskar, trust an experienced colleague. Our kind must never sit in the audience. Our kind must perform and run the show, or the others will run *us*. The others are coming. They will occupy the fairgrounds, they will stage torchlight parades, build rostrums, fill the rostrums, and from those rostrums preach our destruction.

    • Oskar Matzerath: There once was a drummer. His name was Oskar. He lost his poor mama, who had eat to much fish. There was once a credulous people... who believed in Santa Claus. But Santa Claus was really... the gas man! There was once a toy merchant. His name was Sigismund Markus... and he sold tin drums lacquered red and white. There was once a drummer. His name was Oskar. There was once a toy merchant... whose name was Markus... and he took all the toys in the world away with him.
