Hannah Arendt after viewing

Saw "Hannah Arendt". Although the whole film is very dull, it is still very thought-provoking about the evil of banality, about crime and punishment, about whether the individual or the system should be judged, and about academic freedom beyond narrow nationalism. Watched the film "Hannah Arendt" . This film is not very exciting, but the discussions about the banality of evil, about crime and penalty, about which one should be put on the trial, the system or the individual, and about the academic freedom suppassing the narrow-minded nationalism, are quite inspiring.

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.
