When the spot of light hit Hannah's face brightly, her eyes were always looking out the window in the bumpy road of the car. Thinking, what is thinking?

Memories flicker in a lifetime, interspersed in every moment when life is still. Heidegger, Lin Zhonglu... After all the unbearable pain in the future, the reason why I become who I am is not that I love someone deeply and eternally, but these events of love and being loved finally constitute the I.

What is a person, a Jew is a person, and any race or category of people is a person; why think, because thinking is the characteristic of being a person; what is love, if you want to get the love of others, you must first love others.

If the individual disappears, then why does he live?

    7/10. Soon after the beginning of the scene, the shot changed from a flashlight that fell on the floor to a cigarette lit by a lighter in his hand. Afterwards, whether Arendt was looking through materials or thinking about the indoor scene alone, he used a faint light to highlight Arendt's in a dim environment. Subject image: groping for truth in a dark road full of slander; at the end, the college lecture that raised politics and humanitarianism to the height of philosophy, sweeping away the boring rhythm of the previous rhythm and the ordinary sparks of the relationship between the characters, the highlights from the side hit her face Above, it seems to be an image of truth that transcends national sentiments. Explaining that understanding in the trial system does not mean that forgiveness requires the courage to scold and personally threaten. It is a pity that the overall plot and theme lack key descriptions and tend to be simplistic.

    I just heard about the book "The Origin of Totalitarianism" a few days ago, and then I found this film. It does not review the protagonist's life like a common biographical film, nor does it exaggerate love and love, but focuses on showing Arendt's story before and after the Nazi Eichmann trial, but captures the heart of Arendt's ideas well: "evil", such as "banal evil" (a motiveless, unthinking blindness conformity to evil), and harm among fellow men. The people who oppose Arendt are people who don't think deeply, but this is also the most common people. Overall, the film is powerful, especially the speech near the end of the film, which is deafening and thought-provoking. ps: Arendt is really a big smoker.

Hannah Arendt quotes

  • Heinrich Blücher: Dearest. Don't cry.

    Hannah Arendt: I spoke to the doctor. He said you only have a fifty percent chance.

    Heinrich Blücher: Don't forget the other fifty percent.

  • Hans Jonas: But Eichmann is a monster. And when I say monster, I don't mean Satan. You don't need to be smart or powerful to behave like a monster.

    Hannah Arendt: You're being too simplistic. What's new about the Eichmann phenomenon is that there are so many just like him. He's a terrifyingly normal human being.
