I think I love you,
and the choreographer,
the choreographer who I forgot his name,
I think I love him too.
Don't be jealous,
I won't let you go,
you are safe...
I love you...
My friend asked me why I look at black things, I said I just want to be closer to reality, to be closer .
Max stood still holding Horst's body, and the bell of the concentration camp required him to stand still.
I like this scene the most in the whole film. The actors performed extremely well, and Max murmured, telling the love that can no longer be suppressed.
———The
film first started in an underground nightclub, a physical feast of the same sex and the opposite sex, every day and night, without fatigue and regrets. Hanging on a swing in the air, the reverse-string singer Greda looked down at everything in a awake posture that everyone was drunk, and sang the unclean and obscure Berlin night.
That night, Max, who had been playing for a long time in a sexual and unloved underground nightclub, fell in love with a blonde smashing soldier. He took that man home under the nose of his lover Rudy, but he didn’t know it, so he pushed himself into the endless. The Abyss of Nightmare.

I have been thinking about what the heart of the officer with glasses on the train to the concentration camp is made of?
He saw Rudy and he said "Stand up."
He let Rudy smash his glasses, and I crazily recalled the scene when Rudy told Max that he wanted a new pair of glasses. I have always liked Rudy, he is a simple kid, he loves dancing, he loves Max.
Then the officer asked his subordinates to take Rudy away. Rudy tried to ask Max for help, and Max curled up in panic with his head buried.
Then Rudy's screams came from a certain carriage, again and again, like a blunt dagger piercing my head, and again and again, I felt that a certain nerve in my temple was hurting.
Max wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Horst, that was the first time they met.
Finally Rudy was brought in with a bloody head. I found that Rudy's ears were also condensed blood. The officer asked Max if he knew Rudy, and Max dodged his eyes and said that he didn't.
The officer said "Stand up."
That was the voice of the devil, and I swear that from now on I will get goose bumps when I hear this word.
He asked Max to beat Rudy to death. I remember that Rudy told Max when he was hiding in the oil barrel, "I really love u."

Horst got a pink triangle in the concentration camp, which means he is gay. It is the "sexual perversion" in the mouth of the party. Max proves that he is not gay at the cost of raping a little girl, so he gets a yellow star, which means he is Jewish.
In the one-hour and forty-two minute film, each segment is dark and depressing. The director is used to speaking with long shots, especially in the scenes of moving stones in concentration camps. The Nazi Party asked Max and Horst to move stones, Move the stones from here to there one by one, and then move them in place one by one, repeating day after day. The long shot is desperate. Every piece of the stone is pale and hard, proclaiming that this is reality, this is not torture to torture the flesh, this is torturing the soul, this is killing the will, and it is until they go crazy.
They can't have physical contact, can't have eye contact, they exchange words in whispers when they keep moving the stone, they use spirit and language to make love when standing still, they gradually have Plato's love.
Later Horst got the flu, but proudly did not allow himself to bow to the crushing officer to get the medicine. Max pretended that he had a cold, and at the cost of having a relationship with an officer, helped Horst get medicine.
Horst was proud, and so was when he died. Max carefully put him in the pit, took off Horst's pink triangle dress and put it on himself, heading towards the high-voltage power grid.
To complete this unbearable emotion in life with death.
