Before I read it, my knowledge of Nazis and fascism was limited to teaching books (probably the content of the exam), but the real situation is far more terrifying and cruel than I imagined. In the film, Leo is paranoid to capture Eichmann's collapse, to let the audience know that he is not a demon, he is a human being, and this terrible, cold-blooded crime is made by ordinary human beings like you and me. If human beings can't recognize this fact, and just stop at innocuous exclamations such as "Ah is terrible", "He's a devil" and "I can't imagine", and then continue to go their own way, then the tragedy will likely be repeated.
In addition, the description of ratings and news grabbing in the film is very realistic, which reminds me of "Entertainment to Death". Is it important to let the public think deeply and recognize the truth, or is it important to keep the ratings first and let the audience pay attention to this trial? "Not af***ing TV show" "And af***ing TV show.And.And" is contradictory, but related, very ironic. Video has changed our lives, making it easier and cheaper to obtain information. People only see what they want to see, not necessarily what is really important. How to present the truth while attracting the audience may be an eternal issue for media people.
