Be a conscientious survivor

In 1984.
Morality.
Witzger, the patriotic, loyal and dedicated expert-level agent of the national security department, is monitoring the government’s attempts to persecute the famous playwright Deleiman around the clock, recording his daily life and his “reactionary” about ideology. "Speech, even sex...
But in the end, Weitzger changed. At the very moment, he showed the glorious side of human nature. He saved Dreyman and completed the redemption of his conscience.

Thank you XX for recommending me the movie "Eavesdropping Storm". I watched too many silly films. This time it was "Fools are thinking about it, and they must have something." If you have watched "Schindler's List" and "Goodbye Lenin", and like the rigorous examination and reflection of German film creation, you will love it; of course, this film contains many elements, just treat it as one Drama movies are also worth watching. When the night is quiet, turn off the lights, turn on the computer, and spend two hours, it will hit your soul through the screen...
I will not introduce the plot, and I am deeply impressed by the two sentences in the film:
"Wait a minute, there is One suggestion is that we are not a school. All our work is not for scores, but for the people.” Weitzger’s old classmate and boss, Colonel Kurwicz, said to him. I found that throughout the ages, there will always be some people who have done them sordid, shameless and indecent deeds, speaking in a very solemn, sacred, righteous and solemn way. I believe everyone will feel the same when they see it here.
After the reunification of the two Germanys, at the gate of the theater, the famous playwright Deleman of the second male of the film had a chance encounter with Udo, the former Minister of Culture of East Germany. The man behind him who restricted him, monitored him, and attacked him said to him: "Now you can write whatever you want. Isn't this kind of country exactly what you want, but Deleman, now the Federal Republic of Germany Is that what your artist wants? Is there anything else to write about?" Deleman's expression was very sad at the time. Yes, the Minister of Culture is right. Without a gloomy setting, a noble picture cannot be reflected. But I would rather the Delemans couldn't write anything. In this case, there may be fewer brave and conscientious thinkers and a few noble works of art in the world, but what the common people get is a free, democratic, and legal country.
I read Li Chengpeng's blog on Sina Sports a few days ago and said that he was going to escape from the pit, and he stopped writing about Chinese football. Someone scolded him on the Internet and said: Didn’t you get money, a house, a car, and become a "famous prostitute" by cursing Chinese football? If you don't write about Chinese football, you are a shit! Li Chengpeng replied: According to what you said, Zhou Shuren, a great literary master, has to thank the evil old society for failing? ! I can't remember the original words, but this is the truth.

Add a piece of background material: In the film, the famous German actor Muhol, who plays the secret police Witzgerh, went to check his own files after the reunification of Germany and found that he had been reported to the secret police every day for six years. It is his own wife who speaks and behaves. No wonder his performance is so vivid. Of course, he is not the only one who has been betrayed by his relatives. In East Germany, there are a total of 90,000 official secret police and 175,000 informants. Regrettably, "Eavesdropping Storm" is just a movie, and there is no "Witzger" in the real morality. Are they all survivors, but not real warriors? That's not all. The Soviet old man Solzhenitsyn who died a few days ago is called the "conscience of all mankind", and General Peng who immediately wrote the "Book of Ten Thousand Words" to Chairman Mao. They are all brave people with a conscience!
At this point, I think of a friend's concern about me. He said that you always care about this stuff, you are always pursuing freedom and democracy hypocritically, and you often throw some reactionary remarks. If there is another "June 4th" or something, you will not be the first to rush to it! In fact, he really doesn’t understand me. You said that a master who didn’t even dare to go to the Bird’s Nest for the Olympics and was afraid of being injured by anti-party and anti-people bad actors (of course, the main reason was that he didn’t have votes), he "dare to face the bleak. Life, face up to the dripping blood"? When I was in school, Teacher Xiaobai told us that "June 4th" warned everyone to be a survivor, so I was fine to look around, ponder and ponder. It's okay to force a few words on SPACES. In fact, I also know that there is no use for a dick. Ordinarily, this film should be shown to North Koreans the most. It is the so-called "arousing the people." Unfortunately, they can't even see the film that cannot be shown in China, but what about watching it? You can watch the video of Li Ao's speech at Peking University. He said the truth most clearly.
There is an allusion that is the most profound: Khrushchev criticized Stalin on stage at a meeting, and a voice from the audience asked: Where were you in the Stalin era? Khrushchev asked the speaker to come out, and for a long time, no one came forward. Khrushchev said, I was in your current position during Stalin's time.
Be a living person with a conscience.

    Buchverkäufer: 29.80. Would you like it gift wrapped?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: No. It's for me.

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: An innocent prisoner will become more angry by the hour due to the injustice suffered. He will shout and rage. A guilty prisoner becomes more calm and quiet. Or he cries. He knows he's there for a reason. The best way to establish guilt or innocence is non-stop interrogation.
