Unbearable

The sky of Berlin, under the rendering of wim wenders, has always been restrained and restrained. Only the restless soul screamed in the body. About the crazy upheaval of the Nazi era.
Without subtitles, I was not as dull as imagined when I watched it. This is due to the compact plot arrangement. You can't guess what impact these poor little lovers will encounter in the next moment.
The script is adapted from a British stage play, which brings a strong sensational tone. I have been mixing it with "rent", which is very strange. The only connection between the two is probably only the musical pieces interspersed in it. The influence of the stage play is too strong, the emotions are attached to the enchanting limbs, and all catharsis is exhausted. Such emotions are smooth and happy. Such influence highlights the difficulty and paleness of film adaptation. The curves of the characters are only thin under the hasty plot.
Probably the most profound climax is the song and dance piece, the "street of berlin" of the drag queen, the concentrated enthusiasm, depression, sorrow, and despair are monopolized in the music. Directly exhausted the lurking shadows of Berlin.
The sudden benevolence of the officer in "the pianiest" does not seem to appear in this film. In order to rebuild the protagonist's humanity, the concentration camps here are absolutely brutal and unreasonable. It is only targeted at homosexuals. After the right to life is absolutely deprived, the choice and reconstruction of human nature is a universal issue.
Max is facing such a hurdle, but as a result of his putting survival in the first place, he personally killed his little lover Rudy and SEX with the corpse of a 13-year-old girl to prove that he was not gay. The choice of emotion and sexuality is like his invisible wings, stripped from his body forcibly. A twisted soul survived in pain. Obviously, betraying his life is to linger. Rudy disdains, Horst disdains even more. Max's "hate me, but don't love me" can't extinguish Horst's dedication to love. Fortunately, it is this kind of persistence that recalls Max's destroyed mind, redeems the abandoned love and sexuality, and faces a complete self. This is Max's return. Fulfill the standardized cognition.
In this era of information explosion, for most of the history, we almost passively bear the bombardment of media information. History is just the interpretation of the past by the dominant people. Such an interpretation has a prejudice that you cannot deny.
Nazi. A noun for everyone to fight for. Its crime has always been an enduring topic. Books, movies, and music remind people who have not experienced what a brutal age it was. Too many records tell of the Nazi's dehumanizing behavior, but I am curious why there is such an anti-social behavior. What kind of will do those officers and soldiers dominate when they kill? Want to establish a completely clean order? Want to release the animal nature that has been lurking in the depths for a long time? Or is it that my domineering mentality cannot tolerate the Jewish foothold? Waiting for the next answer.
