The setting of the two fathers is very nice, one is the mother's Polish cousin, and the other is the German who loves her. If you examine the background of this film, you will find that the mother is a metaphor for a small town under the competition between Poland and Germany. From the beginning, she has a complex of attachment and slavery to these two countries. The cousin enjoys her body, and the German, as her husband, controls her behavior. Of course, at the same time, she has to depend on her husband's economy. On the one hand, he has to satisfy his own lust, which is enough for Oscar to subvert his understanding of "father", but this is only the first part of his experience of cruelty in the world, and it has since killed his desire to grow up. He found a way to fight, that is his screaming and tin drum. But when he saw his lover and his father get together, it might really be that sentence, it is not the person who is romantic, but the city.

    Although I don't like the plot, I can't deny its complete literature and the absurd humanity in the world of Daqian refracted through the encounter of the dwarf.

    The first time I saw Oscar yelling and shattering the glass on the clock, I almost broke out laughing. Some absurd, some politically allegorical films. hehe. Not bad. You can take a look. (Because of the drums, it may be a little noisy)

The Tin Drum quotes

  • Maria Matzerath: [Oskar walks in secretly to find Alfred having sex with Maria] A little more. Just a little. But be careful

    Alfred Matzerath: Don't worry

    Maria Matzerath: Almost. Almost. Just a little more! But be careful!

    [Oskar jumps on Alfred, interrupting their sexual act. Alfred gets up and slaps him before the upset Maria stops him]

    Maria Matzerath: Alfred, stop it! Is it the kid's fault you're not careful?

    Alfred Matzerath: Me? Who kept asking for more?

    Maria Matzerath: I said, 'Be careful, it's coming soon.' But it never came at all!

    Alfred Matzerath: Never enough. You're all the same

    Maria Matzerath: In, out, finished. That's your idea of love. Well, go look for somebody else. You think I am some electric bell? You never take precautions!

  • Schugger-Leo: He's growing! Look! See how he's growing! I have seen the Lord! The Lord! The Lord!
