My watchbook: "Black Book"

The appearance of the heroine Caris van Houden reminds me of the beauty created by Western classical sculpture for the first time. be a devil. This movie touches on a more sensitive topic during World War II, that is, sexual espionage. The protagonist has made a lot of achievements by sacrificing his own body to steal Nazi intelligence. Insults, until they are rehabilitated, have gone through too many unforgettable memories. It seems that similar situations have occurred in many countries, which also makes this film very typical. The heroine's professionalism is admirable. After the war, she was treated as a traitor and publicly insulted. The scene where she was drenched in dung when she was naked... really hurt her.

    The plot progresses extremely fast. From the beginning to the end, she did not set up a clear opposition to the heroine. She joined the resistance organization and became a spy to rescue prisoners. She did good things with a "nothing to lose" attitude. The only exception was Munts, who recognized her as Jewish and shared with her the pain of losing all of his loved ones. The suspense of this German officer and that "traitor" is the last connection between the heroine and her homeland.

    If anyone takes this "historical movie" full of coincidences and bizarre plot twists seriously, the old bastard Verhoeven will wake up laughing. He ironically merged the routines of almost all Nazi-Jewish-themed works into a successful book called "How to Survive a World Full of Bastards." Moral issues are really irrelevant in his works. Who sees the glamorous carcass and has the time to talk about morality? So there were good people in the Nazis, and so there were jerks in the resistance. The only point of the movie is that the heroine is a winner in life.
