About Tin Drums: From Grasse to Schlondorf

I forgot which year I read Gunter Glass' novel "The Tin Drum". For a long time, I felt that this Nobel Prize writer did not receive the attention it deserved among readers in our country, especially when many young writers talked about The literary works I like must mention Kafka and Haruki Murakami, and when I mention "The Castle" and "Norwegian Forest", I always feel amused, just like seeing many people advertised that they like "One Hundred Years of Solitude" a few years later. , advertise whether their collection is genuine. If you like a book or a writer because he frequently appears in print media, online media and various other media because many authorities sincerely recommend it, it only shows that your reading is narrow and you are really ignorant.
The Tin Drum by Geliss is the most influential of his Danzig trilogy, and in my mind is equal to One Hundred Years of Solitude, The Catcher in the Rye, The Loud and the Loud. The commotion", although because of the long reading time, the most impressive thing so far is that they went to the beach to fish for eels with rotten horse heads. Oscar's father pulled the eel from the horse's ear, and his mother vomited. Xu is that Glass's words are too dripping, and I also have a physiological reaction that makes me feel sick to the point of vomiting, and I always remember that eels are disgusting fish. Later, I watched the film "Eel" by Imamura Shohei, and saw some film critics said that eels are clean. fish, I'm still confused.
Volker Schlondorf's film "The Tin Drum" is adapted from Glass's novel of the same name. Similarly, I forgot which year I first learned about this film. I just remember that it was a program from CCTV introducing the film. On, it may be "The Tenth Screening Room", the best movie program is from CCTV Channel 10, not Channel 6. The boy Oscar who likes to get into his grandmother's skirt and has a tin drum hanging around his neck can make a sharp cry. He refused to grow up after knowing that his mother and uncle were having an affair. During the rendezvous, he shattered the window glass with his cries, his mother took him for a medical examination, he shattered the utensils holding the specimens with his cries, and during the military parade he disturbed the rhythm of the military music with the sound of drums, and the march became a waltz. Dancing on the Blue Danube. Because of those interesting pictures, I remember "The Tin Drum" and the name of the author Glass.
I finished watching the movie yesterday. There was no or very few deleted versions. What surprised me was that the actor who played Oscar was Roe at the time, but he played Oscar from childhood to adulthood, and even he had sex scenes. , he wants to make out with adult women like an adult, not to mention this Oscar was eccentric when he was a child, I am a bit worried about whether this child will be physically and mentally healthy later. But this should be the best child actor, better than Judy Foster in Taxi Driver and Natalie Portman in Killer Leon. Sadly, the film's honors are the Palme d'Or for Best Picture and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and no Best Actor.
There are not many successful adaptations of famous novels, but Schlondorf's "The Tin Drum" is one.
