Because there is a cameo by Heidegger in this film, and I know Arendt's "The Origin of Totalitarianism", so I went to watch it, and here are some feelings. Although it is centered on the trial of Eichmann, it is only an experience of Arendt, and more of it reflects the characteristics and thinking of Arendt, especially some of the memory fragments interspersed in it (although the performance is not enough) , which also shows that he was deeply influenced by Heidegger. - "Thinking is a lonely thing." "We live because we live; we think because we know how to think." No doubt, Arendt understood this well and responded forcefully enough - as a former The persecuted Jews, she did not lose herself in the racism, war and hatred, did not follow the so-called justice and echo what others say, she thought about the boundaries between mediocrity and evil, and did not change the nobility of herself for the public. It was not easy to hold an opposing position in the environment at the time, and it was even more rare for Arendt to publish a signed article in the New Yorker. In a Chinese language, it is "the spirit of independence, the thought of freedom". In today's era of national populism in the tide of globalization, it is time for us to calm down and rethink. Reason and emotion should not be confused, and I wish we could all be Hannah Arendt.
