Chilly, disturbing, but very well made!

This movie is one of the chilliest, coldest production I've ever seen. As Colin mentioned in the featurette that it would be less shocking if they were frothing at their mouth and shouting'kill them all'. The holocaust emerged with emotionless calculation and Jews were itemized to be'evacuated'. I simply don't understand how they could eat while discussing this bloody murder. And to my most surprise, many of the attendees escaped from the punishment they deserved. I think this is the most disturbing part in the whole movie.

The music at the end is a strong contrast to the movie. It's Schubert Quintet in C Major, very peaceful and bringing us hope. Heydrich referred as "the adagio will tear your heart out", did he ever have a heart I wonder?

    In a gluttonous feast of old dramas, Ken father interprets Heydrich's graceful indifferent and cruelty to the bone. But the Wanhu Conference under the superb interpretation of the actors was almost cruel, making my viewing experience extremely uncomfortable and nauseous, and the aftertaste was even more chilling. I again affirm that I spurn all the supporters and beautifiers of Nazi beliefs. They are really the most brutal, dirty and inherently ignorant and cowardly group in the history of civilization.

    Collingfels and Kenneth Branagh are PKing on the bank of Wanhu Lake, and many people's Dou Sen are the wiring soldiers. The only soundtrack is the Schubert String Quintet D956. Heydrich said it was fascinating, and Eichmann said it was a sentimental junk waltz. In fact, I think Eichmann really looks like a Jew, not only looks, but also how to improve efficiency after burying himself in calculations...

Conspiracy quotes

  • Heydrich: [to Lange] Politics is a nasty game. I think soldiering requires the discipline to do the unthinkable and politics requires the skill to get someone else to do the unthinkable for you.

  • Klopfer: [leaving after the meeting] You certainly know how to throw a party.

    Adolf Eichmann: Thank you.

    Klopfer: Shalom!
