I have seen a few World War II movies and I really like this movie. He didn't focus too much on the behavior of the German army, but focused on the struggle of the hero. Halder was contradictory from beginning to end. The book he wrote is about a man who killed his most beloved woman for love, but he did not have the courage to send his mother away, leaving her suffering from illness all the time. He wanted to be a good man who was loyal to his wife, but he fell in love with the female student involuntarily. He hated the Nazis' actions, but chose to join the Nazis for his own future. He cared about his Jewish friends, but he was afraid of hindering him from refusing to help him. Uncle V played this good cowardly and gentle man, he hesitated and stuttered when he spoke, and his panic eyes all showed that he was kind but afraid of getting into trouble. He was humble and polite when facing Nazi officials, with a smile on his face; when he was bumped into buying tickets for a Jewish friend, the panic and horror that couldn't be hidden under his eyes; when he heard that the Nazis were about to clean up the Jews, he sat down. After a frustration, he picked up the tableware and put it down. He still wanted to talk. In the end, the worry about the safety of his friend still prevailed. He randomly found an excuse and fled. The best thing is the long shot at the end. The shot follows the male protagonist walking around in the concentration camp. His slightly opened lips and hands that are nowhere to rest are full of his consternation at this hell on earth. Finally he said with tears: It's real. Beautiful music is played here, but people are screaming miserably. Such a contradictory and crazy scene is actually a shocking truth. In the film, Halder heard the music he imagined three times. The first time was when he was fascinated by female students, the second time was when he was promoted to go to the filming location of the film adaptation of his work, and the third time was when he tried to find his friends in the chaos "cleaning up". I haven't found the specific source of these music, but I will talk about my understanding based on the lyrics. The first lyrics: "The two blue eyes of my dear love They now have sent me away into the world" Before meeting a female student, Halder's life was in the midst of trivial parents. There is a seriously ill mother whose wife also seems to have some mental problems. At the same time, he needs to cook, clean up the housework, and take care of the two children. I can feel the suffocation of this life across the screen, like a cage, but he tried his best to maintain his gentleness and aura, and strive to be a good husband and son in the family. But the female student was enthusiastic and radical in thought. Under her influence, he felt an unprecedented vitality. From then on, he was able to stay away from the past life, which was also a turning point in his thinking. Once, even though his father-in-law tried to persuade him to join the Nazis, he still did not want to. But under the influence of his lover and the direct intervention of the Nazi chief, he succumbed. The second lyrics: "I crop by the Necker I crop by the Rhine Now I have a sweetheart Now I have none What use is cropping if none is mine.
