      Eclectic War Reflections

      This cut-in angle was chosen too cleverly, and the final plot reversal went straight to the point, and the handling was even a little cold and shocking. So many years after the war, Nazism still affects people. The first old man found still supported Hitler's ideas, but opposed the persecution of Jews.

      The second old man was a survivor of Auschwitz. The moment when the two old men hugged each other and cried, was touching.

      The son of the third old man who is looking for treasures...

      Writing this comment, I just want to express one thought:

      The old man finally said, I remember. He remembered who he really was, remembered what he had done, and shot himself.

      He has lived for so many years, so old, and living well, why did he commit suicide now, and why didn't he realize his sins before? If he really had such a conscience, he would...

      Some hatred will not be forgotten

      An old man with Hemmers disease, when his condition became more and more serious, coupled with the death of his wife, began to take revenge against the former Nazis. From the very beginning, this story is full of the war grievances left over from World War II. However, as the plot progresses, we not only see that young people in the new era still have Nazi ideas. More importantly, the final road to finding the enemy will be surprising. The Nazis the old man is looking for is actually himself! I...

      Essay

      A depressing movie.

      The end of this flip even has some kind of philosophical imagery. The setting of Alzheimer's, from the perspective of plot promotion, this kind of disease can make all behaviors logical, forget things, be confused, live in the cracks of confusion and sobriety; at the same time, this disease has also become a metaphor, oneself to oneself deceived and deceived, it has become a choice of "active dementia" and can survive. Zeev's family doesn't know this secret, and he...

      The reckoning of history cannot extinguish the fire of sin

      Zev, an elderly man living in a nursing home, has Alzheimer's disease. With the help of his friend Max, he embarks on a solo journey of revenge and a search for memories. As survivors of Auschwitz concentration camp, Zeev and Max find it is their long-cherished wish to find the jailer who killed their family. On the subject of war and reflection, killing and tolerance, there are many films, such as the two famous "Schindler's List" and "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas." This film is different...

      6.5 points. Similar to Wen Ziren's "Fatal Induction," the film accomplishes a rare and subtle genre reversal: at first glance you think you're watching another version of "Father Trapped in Time" because he tells It is also a story of how an old man fights aging, only to watch it slip into the anti-war story of how the Nazis repented and redeemed their sins at the end of their lives. Although the story is speculatively catering to political correctness from the point of view of ideological...

      Combining the two major nodes of Mr. Plummer's acting life: the "Sound of Music" officer who escaped the Nazis when he was young is famous all over the world, and in old age, he won the Oscar for "Beginner" who revealed his true self at the end of his life. This "brain-burning film" that reflects on World War II and also analyzes self-crime, the mapping inside and outside the play becomes more...

      "Remember" appears with an almost horror-movie expressionist oblique shot, and disappears with "That Shot." In a sense, it is a continuation of Caligari and Hitler, the expressionist spirit that has dried up under the slow rhythm of old age. We are constantly being Informed, as every moment is canceling the past. The film is exactly this memory/disappearance rate. "Aging" means the many indicators of memory shifting from the inside to the outside. A world of unsettling possibility unfolded...
