Three Deaths in Silent Violence

In the end, Bruno's father stormed the concentration camp. He stood outside the gray gas chamber shrouded in wind and rain, wondering if he shed a little tear. The dark iron door that stands out on the screen has closed countless innocent souls, including Bruno, the son of a Nazi officer, a pure boy like a blank sheet of paper, a buddy who hopes to help his "friend" find his father. Bruno is dead, and we haven't seen his face since the moment we were on the lights, but we didn't panic when we saw his final expression. The camera of the film is always aimed at Bruno and his playmates and family, telling the audience with his eyes: this country is planning a massacre. The scenes of the Nazi officers chasing the Jews were almost silent, and the people in the concentration camps were not making much movement, except that they suddenly smelled a pungent odor before dinner and saw a few plumes of thick smoke. But no matter what, in Bruno's eyes, there is only strangeness and familiarity, no sense of killing and peace. If he is not too curious, perhaps, the swing is everything to him. The smoke was the only manifestation of Jewish death. There is a special person in the whole film, that is Bruno's grandmother, who expressed her opposition to the Nazis at the party where Bruno's father was promoted. As in Germany during this historical period, fanatical Nazism took over the souls of most people. They raised their right hands over their eyebrows, palms down, and looked straight ahead, shouting: "Long live Hitler!" The opponents seemed so insignificant at this time, and this kind of voice was almost negligible, just like in a noisy party Here, you're biting your ears with your close friend. Eventually, on the way to see Bruno, the grandmother died. Who killed her? She was a family member of a Nazi officer, and the anti-Nazis would probably kill her; she was an anti-Nazi, and the Nazis assassinated her. If you believe the Nazi officer, then she was killed by the anti-Nazis. How did the Nazi officers feel? His belief, the dictator Hitler, gave him the courage to disregard his grandmother's objection. He held his wife's hand tightly and asked her to take it back. This tainted grandma's soul. Three deaths: Bruno's death, the slaughter of Jews, and the death of anti-Nazis. All three kinds of death appear silent, without struggle, in darkness, without sound, and life is powerless in these three moments. What I understand is that at such a historical moment, Auschwitz offers a place where the human and the beasts are vividly displayed. Those terrifyingly calm beasts, those human instincts, all seem out of place inside and outside a wall. The violence of silence, the movie shocks me from its silence, from the child's eyes, from the pure mind The incomprehensible violence, he did not make a sound, but his eyes were full of doubts. Who could understand such doubts in the world at that time? The film quietly smashes Bruno and the Jewish boy he once betrayed with all the goodness in a child's eyes. Movies and books are titled The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. I think they're talking about Bruno, the innocent boy who just wore that racially-differentiated striped pajamas once. And the Jewish boy who wore striped pajamas every day pushed his car to and from the concentration camp in the silent violence, his right eye was swollen in the silent violence, and in the silent violence, with the innocent curiosity of the Nazi officer The sons are buried in the ground together

    We live in a twisted and lied world.

    One of the heaviest movies I've ever seen, almost suffocated by my mother's heart-wrenching scream in the rain at the end. The background of the first half of the flowers and sunshine is a layer of sugar paper, which was torn open in the last twenty minutes, and only a handful of ashes were left inside. Actors are doing well. But I really don't want to watch it again, it's too uncomfortable.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas quotes

  • Herr Liszt: Yes Bruno?

    Bruno: I don't understand, the Jew is down to this one man?

    Herr Liszt: The Jew here means the entire Jewish race. If it was just this one man I'm sure something would be done about him.

    Bruno: There is such thing as a nice Jew isn't there?

    Herr Liszt: [Sarcastically] I think Bruno if you ever find a nice Jew, you'd be the best explorer in the world.

  • Father: My work is very important to our country and to you. We're working very hard to make the world better for you.
