and self-reflection on
Nazi atrocities in Germany is innumerable, and there are countless literary and artistic works accusing this human catastrophe. Decades later, there are still new movies appearing to tell this tragic history. But today, it is not easy to make a work on this popular subject to move them. To be honest, it is not easy, because a lot of pearls and jade are in front, and the audience sees it a lot. Now, the film about the Nazi massacre of Jews was filmed by Dutch
director Paul Verhoeven, who had already moved to the United States.
Today, I can shoot a film about Nazi atrocities in Germany and can be nominated for various European film festivals. It is worth seeing. The faces and scenes of the Dutch actors are fresh, and the plot (based on real events) is interesting: a female singer escaped from death , and later sneaked into the enemy's base camp, rescued the compatriots of the anti-German volunteers, and escaped again. However, after the war, she did not have a good life, because "all the survivors are sinners".
At the end of this Dutch film, it is worth thinking about the attitude of the Dutch after the war. The heroine of this film worked hard in the German military department during the war, with the purpose of seeking revenge and saving the captured underground army, living in the shadow of death every second. However, someone like her with an ambiguous work nature was misunderstood by the unsuspecting compatriots after the war, thinking that she was "a traitor and a helper to Zhou" during the war, so they came to liquidate her. Director Paul Verhoeven, after years of deliberation, finally brought the controversial character to the screen in an attempt to clear her name.
The charming actress Carice van Houten has been compared to the legendary actress Greta Garbo in film history. What you see on the screen today are all Hollywood-style female faces. It is rare to see a mature Dutch actress, and you will feel astonished and eager to associate her with the legendary Greta Garbo.
I didn’t like Paul Verhoeven’s film in Hollywood, but the Dutch film he made this time made me look at him differently. After all, making a film about hatred of the country and the family, and heartfelt words, will always be sincere, sincere, enthusiastic, and touching. There are not many Dutch movies that can be released worldwide, so fans who have never seen a Dutch movie, might as well start with this movie! (Finish)
