Perhaps a must-see for those interested in WWII. But for more than eight hours, I couldn't finish it. I liked a small part of it. It was the part of the singer who survived the concentration camp. Looking at his expression, I suddenly like documentaries so much that no matter how skilled an actor is, he can't express what he sees. . . It's a pity that I have watched depressing films in the past six...

Lanzmann's complex and ever-changing shots are an interrogator, a seeker, and a narrative participant. It plays an important role in reconstructing past time and space and image representation. Under the calm restraint, there are surging emotions. This great film is a perfect combination of art and documentary, and with the passage of time, there will be no one before and no one...

8.5# I admit that I fell asleep when I saw the fourth hour... (The gap between the large number of live translations in the first half is indeed tormented, but this torment seems to intensify the sense of heaviness together with the content) I read it in two episodes. In the long nine and a half hours, the untouchable memories gathered through extensive collection and repeated questioning turned into a long river flowing slowly in the thick fog. Every word of the interviewee, every vague look,...

With the final solution in place, trains began to come, and people were starving, shoving and suffocating, even paying for the death ticket. The shouts, the cries, the roars ceased with a single command, and through a production line of death, everything dies and there is silence again. "It's always peaceful here, and it's still peaceful here when they burn 2,000 Jewish bodies every day." Behind the calm camera and the melodious ballads is a racial...

Nine and a half hours is not enough to write about this dehumanizing event, but in capturing the interviewees for a long time, for example, we must first let the audience slowly relieve their feelings, the absurdity and uneasiness of the event, in order to maximize the Watching their words calmly. The greatest thing for me is how to photograph/write/discourse this complex world when the living are after the Holocaust? Every part of this film gives a lot of...

8.5/ From the most direct description and the most intuitive feeling in the mouth of the witnesses, the ruins that have been washed away by time are far from being able to let people see the real cruelty, such as the cold time, and the surrounding scenery after all sins is silent. This Shoah named in Hebrew is by no means caused by that person, because he and pigs are only about 25% similar, and the indifference of this lonely nation is far more than...

It's a bit long, it can be indented for three and a half hours, but it's still very shocking. There are a few moments when I really feel the same as the interviewee, the so-called death anxiety, walking out of the movie theater and seeing the bright light outside, old men. Tai Chi, well, we're back on our own...

The documentary of interviews with survivors of the Third Reich Extermination of Jews and related persons. It is 9 hours long and very lengthy. It can be cut in half. Especially in the interview, a large number of repetitive translations were translated. The film is composed of interviews and the ruins of concentration camps and other landscape shots. It has no historical images and is very boring. In addition, even when the interviewee (former Nazi party member) emphasized not to film and not...

siff #43. At the end, a swan song. It appears to be a single record form (all oral interviews), but the way the materials are arranged is messy and not chaotic. It is more of onlookers, participants in the massacre, actors and inactions, interspersed with survivors’ narratives from time to time, in all directions. The main body of the record is constructed objectively to the greatest extent, and a psychological rhythm is formed, but perhaps because it is too long, the rhythm is not so obvious....

Multi-language, long shots, simultaneous voices, monologue editing with extended pauses, elimination of historical and video materials, and a large number of real shots...This form of oral and interview has maximized the truthfulness and shocking force. Strong, the interviewees are also extremely wide. However, judging from the 9-and-a-half-hour film length and dull and boring audio-visual experience, this film is nothing less than a torture and suffering "catastrophe" for most moviegoers....
