"Rabe's Diary" is based on the wartime diary "Rabe's Diary" written by Rabe. Through this legendary "Chinese version of Schindler", it reproduces the thrilling and tragic memory of Nanjing. The film records the beginning and end of the "Nanjing Massacre" from the perspective of the witnesses, and is the most complete and detailed historical material to confirm the information of the "Nanjing" incident. Rabe, who once believed deeply in Nazism, stepped forward in the cruel reality of war and set...

I really don't like to exaggerate or belittle historical figures in films that explore human nature. Existence is reasonable. The reason why "bad guys" can cover the earth in darkness is not because he looks scary, but because he has his own advantages. "Good people" seem to be admired by many people, but in fact the truth may not be the case. Of course, in my opinion, Rabe is still worthy of...

It's just a documentary, it has no ups and downs, lacks emotional color, and I give it three stars, just because the background is a bloody history of national disaster and humiliation that is unforgettable, and the rest has no quality. It is the foreign doctor, the second is the young man who claims to speak German (less than a minute), and the third is the little brother of a girl's school student (played by Zhang Jingchu) (about two...

History has given him a stage, he just follows the trend, no matter how he can't escape the final outcome, he still retains his views on history. In the end, what I want to express is just, damn...

The second half is slightly miraculous and dramatic. Up to three and a half stars from a cinematic perspective. But this kind of film must be made, and there is a lot of irony. The Japanese have to hide and hide their morbid character in everything they do, which is doubly disgusting and must be stabbed hard. Buscemi is the element that balances the character atmosphere. Rabe still suffered a bit. ....

There is a unique sense of oppression and despair in this type of film. From the point of view of storytelling, it is better than Nanjing...

"Rabe's Diary": Rabe is great, and the movie is mediocre
I will not deny Rabe's greatness because of the mediocrity of a movie, and likewise I will not admit Rabe's greatness to a mediocre movie. Although "Rabe's Diary" won a grand prize in Germany, it does not mean that this is a good film depicting the Nanjing Massacre. The disappointment brought to me...

Don't forget the national humiliation
The Nanjing Massacre can be said to be the pain in the heart of every Chinese. "Rabe’s Diary" does not have too many scenes of killing, violence and other scenes. It narrates the Japanese massacre in Nanjing relatively gently. Feeling the brutality of Japanese soldiers, the film highlights how...

John Rabe: Stop it! This is the safety zone. Get out and leave the women alone.
[Rabe switches to German and makes a Nazi salute]
John Rabe: We're Germans. Germans. We're Germans.
[Japanese officer aims his pistol at Rabe]
John Rabe: Help me out here, damn it!
Dr. Georg Rosen: [Rosen also makes a Nazi salute] Heil... Shitler. Heil Shitler.
John Rabe: [after resolving the situation] That's not funny.
Dr. Georg Rosen: We got through.
John Rabe: All the same, he is the Führer of the German people.
Dr. Georg Rosen: And shall I tell you what I don't find funny?
John Rabe: Yes what is it?
Dr. Georg Rosen: It also concerns the so-called Führer.
John Rabe: Listen here...
Dr. Georg Rosen: Friedrich Rosen, my father. An ambassador and foreign minister, forced to flee and die in China. Simply because my grandfather, Beethoven's best friend, no less, happened to be Jewish. My father couldn't die in the country he always lived for. That's not funny. Nor is my position as secretary. After years as embassy councillor. I should be glad to even be alive. Do you think that's funny?
[Rosen makes a Nazi salute]
Dr. Georg Rosen: Heil Shitler.
