Been wondering what was the most shameful part about Hannah? In fact, it is not her identity as a Nazi concentration camp administrator, but that she is illiterate. This is shame within shame, and it dominates her life consciousness more fundamentally than sin recognized by the world. For a long time, I didn't understand why Hannah was reluctant to get out of prison and reconcile with the real world. She has learned so many words during her sentence and learned to write. She can start her life again. But maybe it's because knowledge can open people's conscience, she feels that she has no face, and the world (actually the representative of this world, the little boy who has been with her for a long time) is unwilling to accept her. In the face of true love, the proportion of shame and conscience is very large, so large that a person can voluntarily end his life because of shame.

The movie must have hired an American legal adviser. I feel that the legal part of the trial is quite accurate, and it makes people feel how unfair the original legal system is to the poor who have no access to legal terms/resources. The trial part is the best and most prudent in the whole film, while other parts are too procrastinated and superficial, and I feel that many of the inner emotions expressed in the book have been ignored. The line "Camp is not a university" is wonderful.
