The exquisite acting skills, the perfect soundtrack, and the ending that cannot be spoiled are the reasons why I gave five stars. In fact, in the movie, many details finally make the ending more full. Wife deaths, tattoos, fanatical Nazi descendants, and Alzheimer’s throughout, there may be many unnoticeable details. Now I think back to the nursing home Max is really great. In fact, he has too many opportunities to bring Otto and Varisi (male protagonist) to justice in the nursing home, but he does not. He has to wait until Otto’s wife passes away. Carrying out his plan, this is how merciful this murderer is. He didn't tell Otto the truth, but let Otto wake up from repeated hypnosis of lies, tattoos, reality, and facts, and let him choose the end. The spiritual trial of fascism hidden behind the film is the classic and thought-provoking feature. Someone in the film reviews mentioned that revenge and forgiveness are correct, and I personally think that this is correct for the victims. Revenge shows fairness and justice, while forgiveness shows kindness. For people of our generation who have not experienced World War II, do not express your own evaluation of that period of history easily, because we are not victims and I am not qualified to make any decisions for them. This is true of Auschwitz concentration camp and the Nanjing Massacre. As descendants of the victims, what we can do is to absolutely support their decision. When they choose revenge, we choose fairness and justice. When they choose When forgiving, we should remember this history even more, and don't let war befall us and our descendants again. please remember...

    I had already made up my mind to never watch Igoyan's films again, but I didn't pay attention to the cast and crew information, and Nima watched another one. . . . So sad. #Igoyan's life is black#

    When I saw the news of Colonel Feng Chuipu in the morning, I couldn't cry; I can see Bruno Ganz again in this movie, and I sighed again
