Just a second ago, I thought of this title.
Who is the boy in the striped pajamas?
Such a movie title is very good, with puns or even multiple meanings. From this, we can think of other similar works such as "The Kite Runner". Who is the kite runner? The author doesn't make it clear, you have to find it yourself. Look at one chapter and you think it's Hassan. At the end, you find that Amir is too. When you close the book, you feel yourself again. Who is the boy in the striped pajamas? Watch for an hour and you think it's Shmuel. By the end, you find Bruno too. Finally, after thinking about it, you feel that those innocent and innocent boys or girls, men or women are wearing visible and invisible striped pajamas. The boys in the striped pajamas all became Shmuel, whether you were the son of a Jewish watchmaker or the young master of a German officer. If you put it in a concentration camp, whoever knows who you are, your father can burn your son.
Labels are given by others, even if everyone is equally evil, I am wearing a military uniform, I am a soldier who defends the country, you are wearing striped pajamas, you are a dirty and smelly jew. Label you, regardless of who you really are. So in the end the iron door was tightly closed and never opened. I thought at one point that it would open the next second, and the next second Dad would rush in to save him, but it didn't. Everything was tagged because he was wearing striped pajamas.
When dealing with history, don't promote one-sidedly in works of art. Many years have passed, and there is no need to debate whether the Jews are worth whitewashing. Who is white and who is black? At that time, people were all mottled. The film doesn't whitewash the Jews, who should have their sins in history, but the point is, "If you can find a good man among the Jews, then you're the greatest explorer in the world."
Bruno, the child, was not completely willing to accompany Shmuel. But it wasn't because Shmuel tricked him. This is about the friendship world of children. Maybe many people can't understand the friendship of children when they grow up. I'm eight years old, you are eight years old, we are friends. You're always hungry, but I don't laugh at you or pity you, I just want you to be happy and then we can play together. You lied and caused me to be beaten, but I don't hold grudges, and I don't sneer, because without you, I'm lonely again. Bruno chose to stay with Shmuel in the concentration camp for three reasons in my opinion: 1) Bruno's own kindness, he wanted to help 2) Bruno felt sorry for Shmuel before, and he wanted to make up for 3) lies. He thought that the concentration camp was a "paradise" in the movie.
So in the end, it was Dad who killed him. Did you find it? From the very beginning of the movie, people kept saying "he doesn't understand anything when he's young". So, don't tell him anything. Adults are always like this, thinking that children don't understand anything, so they hide the facts, cover up, and use the fake to make the real. Did Mom and Dad trick Bruno? no. Bruno went to find the truth alone. On the contrary, both parents were deceived by Bruno, "I have adventure books in my schoolbag" and "I was on the swing for the last time."
Reminds me of a line in "Transcendence", "Before people become parents, they should first determine that they have the qualifications to be parents."
I like war movies because I think the more the war, the more it reflects human nature. The movie is beautiful, and many of the shots are ingenious and beautiful, like a dream. The Germans have pale blue eyes, hard angular faces, serious expressions, and a cold beauty.
This ending is beyond my expectations, because my life is very sunny and I have never seen darkness.
