      The eternal proposition about faith: what do we all believe?

      Some random thoughts, perhaps beyond the scope of film criticism, have read too many articles to analyze this article from a political point of view, but I just want to talk about the game of human nature contained in it, and about beliefs.

      During the two years of my violent youth, I have been filled with some equally elusive belief Empty life.

      find life

      The story unfolds from the classroom, is teaching, and is also a reproduction of an interrogation.
          Dozens of hours of interrogation, unchanging expression, always steady tone, careful thinking, perfect result. Like a god, Wesler could tell if a prisoner on trial was lying, knew how to inflict pain, and knew when to lay the last straw. And, after getting the desired result, just like every well-trained secret police officer, he removed the prisoner's seat and collected scent samples for...

      So-so, not shocking enough

      It's not as exciting as expected, and it's not "a profound analysis of human nature" like the reviews I saw before.

      The protagonist in the film is an unsmiling, rigorous and rigid person, a typical technical staff character. Such people can handle their own professional well, but when they are involved in complex and sinister political struggles, they are often powerless, or even in the wrong team, becoming a victim.

      Although he was angry when he saw colleagues joke about...

      the lives of others

      Das Leben der Anderen, the lives of others. I don't know who translated the name of such a spy war "Eavesdropping Storm"... It really reminds me that "3 Idiots" was translated into "Three Stupid Treasures in Bollywood" and "Gone with the Wind" was translated The tragedy of "Gone with the Wind"!
      This is the second German movie I've watched after "The Tin Drum". As a German fan, I feel guilty and determined to start making up for this lesson!

      I was deeply moved by the movie! The...

      A handful of lovely people caught in the details

      The scene at the beginning of the movie brings into the 1984 horror atmosphere.

      Onishi sent me this Chinese-English bibliography to read carefully. The description of the environment and atmosphere in the book does not care about the investment. The profound influence is that there are four huge pyramid-shaped white buildings that suppress and control the
      entire city. Helicopters patrolling outside the window, elliptical surveillance telescreens that cannot escape even the...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The film is not based on real events, but a lot of material has been taken from history. The eavesdropping equipment in the film is the genuine product used by Stasi borrowed from museums and collectors.
    The cost of the film is only 2 million U.S. dollars. A major reason for this savings is that the actors only charge one-fifth of the film's remuneration under normal....

    Evaluation action

    The film "Eavesdropping Storm" has twists and turns, grasping the hearts of the people, and presenting a good story to the audience. The film does not end with a happy scene of reunion like the fairy tale analyzed by Prop, but leaves the audience with it. A touch of gratitude. ( Comment by Liu Shufang , editor of School of Journalism and Communication, Shaanxi Normal University )
    "Eavesdropping Storm" is a serious and reflective film...

    Movie quotes

    • [last lines]

      Buchverkäufer: 29.80. Would you like it gift wrapped?

      Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: No. It's for me.

    • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: An innocent prisoner will become more angry by the hour due to the injustice suffered. He will shout and rage. A guilty prisoner becomes more calm and quiet. Or he cries. He knows he's there for a reason. The best way to establish guilt or innocence is non-stop interrogation.

    • Oberstleutnant Anton Grubitz: I have to show you something: "Prison Conditions for Subversive Artists: Based on Character Profile". Pretty scientific, eh? And look at this: "Dissertation Supervisor, A. Grubitz". That's great, isn't it? I only gave him a B. They shouldn't think getting a doctorate with me is easy. But his is first-class. Did you know that there are just five types of artists? Your guy, Dreyman, is a Type 4, a "hysterical anthropocentrist." Can't bear being alone, always talking, needing friends. That type should never be brought to trial. They thrive on that. Temporary detention is the best way to deal with them. Complete isolation and no set release date. No human contact the whole time, not even with the guards. Good treatment, no harassment, no abuse, no scandals, nothing they could write about later. After 10 months, we release. Suddenly, that guy won't cause us any more trouble. Know what the best part is? Most type 4s we've processed in this way never write anything again. Or paint anything, or whatever artists do. And that without any use of force. Just like that. Kind of like a present.
