death is not for anyone

I have to admit that when I saw Bruno and Shmuel die at the same time, what worried me was not Shmuel, but Bruno.

Such a perceptual bias will soon be denied by the rational self.

The Japanese once pretentiously believed that the Yamato nation was the best race bestowed by God, and appointed itself as the only savior. However, after turning over several times, he returned to the essence of salted fish, and he is still tossing around on that small island surrounded by the ocean.

Bruno can run around waving branches and imagine himself as a warrior of the Roman battlefield, whipping the air and shouting "die, die", while Shmuel pushes a wheelbarrow by himself under the wrap of striped pajamas. These differences have nothing to do with the so-called race. Rather, it's about fate. If you choose to be human, you must have some stupid ideas.

Some people once said that the class system in China has been eliminated but the class phenomenon still exists, so is it not the case for all human beings.

Death should not be exclusive to Shmuel, and a clean life is not something Bruno deserves. When both sides of the war are under the banner of benefiting mankind, one must make bloody sacrifices for this.

    In the end he became a boy in striped pajamas.

    I always thought that there would be a "last minute rescue" ending in traditional movies. I always took it for granted that the protagonist's aura of immortality would be on this boy, so that I couldn't accept it for a long time after seeing the last scene. After all, this is a Nazi movie.
