This is the cry of everyone, "You can see through everyone's heart, but not your own." German films always have a kind of magic, not only films, but also German philosophy, painting, etc. are inseparable from their special national characteristics . After watching "The Tin Drum", my biggest feeling is that it is the product of extreme carnival and extreme calm. The protagonist's absurd life experience, witnessing his mother's cheating, witnessing the degeneration and madness of society, Oscar can only stubbornly beat the tin drum, keep shouting, shatter the glass that isolates the outside world, and shatter the glasses that disguise the hypocritical power. Shattered false fanaticism. Another German film "Deutsche Year Zero" blames all the tragedy for the crazy propaganda of the Nazis, and in "The Tin Drum" we seem to see the good and evil intertwined in the hearts of every well-dressed person. Schlondorf, who has a unique understanding of political films, is particularly "euphemistic" in his handling of politics, but he does not pass it weakly, but like a freehand oil painting with bright colors and many metaphors. Everything seems to be a product of art . Just like the upside-down picture at birth, upside down and swaying, Oscar seems cunning and evil but sticks to his own principles and properly confronts the world, constantly shouting but sadly, he is trapped in a three-year-old body and cannot let his opponents To face up to his desires and confrontations. That is the cry of all of us, our unwilling and ridiculous bodies cannot imagine the cruelty of reality. Sensitivity and taboo are the most helpless rests, and the absurd is indeed a transposition of the waltz.
