The German film festival selects this international film's topic of "Hannah. Hannah Arendt (Hannah Arendt), not necessarily all audiences have read her works. If you use the content of her works to evaluate the film, it is extremely complicated. You should interpret it from the perspective of the film, and the book will belong to the book. Ben, movies are movies. The length of the film is always limited, and it is difficult to explain a person's character, life, and anecdotes in nearly two hours. Therefore, the film selected the length of the Jerusalem Judgment to bring out this strange woman's attitude and enthusiasm for thinking. And perseverance, highlighting women's perseverance and courage, the attitude of never backing down when facing academic doubts.

Details of the Jerusalem Judgment can be found in related works. The film mainly presents Hannah's thoughts, memories, and race. The starring Barbara Suguva has collaborated with director Margarita many times. , starting from "The German Sisters" and have known each other for more than 30 years. The image can see a person's appearance change. The sister in "The German Sisters" has become a German actress in the film industry, and she has also played Hannah Erlan, a female giant. The mainstream of German films is mainly to present the mirror image of World War II, or the ideological trends of the left and the right after the war. The German images we are currently exposed to are inseparable from criticism, examination, politics and war.

The fate of Hannah Oran is worth discussing. She was once Heidegger's entrant disciple and his lover. The movie also spends some pen and ink to describe the unspoken feeling between them. However, in terms of the overall movie perception, the love part is abrupt, and the feeling of a girl's cherishing spring is inappropriate. Instead, all the focus should be on the Great Trial and what Hannah faced afterward, and it seems lace and gossip in dealing with Heidegger, a little bit of gossip. And her identity is also very embarrassing. She is a German Jew, but she holds the identity of the United States. She has been in a concentration camp and is rarely a Jew who has been rescued.

One of the good things about German films is that they dare to tell the history frankly, not an understatement, so that everyone has to face history. The film mainly describes her as a writer for The New Yorker, reporting the news of the Great Trial. This caused Elan to struggle in her heart. She struggled with nationalism and personal experience. Through her observation of the trial, she discovered that the "felon" Eichmann was not the only criminal in the massacre. The flip side of the story is that those who are insulted do not resist and choose to obey, which is called "banal evil".

Humans are thinking animals and should not follow the crowd, follow suit, and are not machines. Aymansi only knew to obey orders at the time, because he lacked thinking at the time, and to a certain extent he was also a victim of totalitarianism, because he might lose his life if he disobeyed. What Hannah aimed at was that the generals of some countries at that time automatically opened the door for the German troops to enter, and they were not ready to guard. It is also evil. How to think is a science, no matter how it is interpreted, it is also a view.

Thinking is never a simple knowledge. People will be dominated by external factors, such as the media, interests, and the mood to think, and how much they are inspired to travel and express in deeper and deeper. Probably the most important thing in the movie is that thinking itself is very important. A matter is often dealt with in different aspects and in different ways. The quality of a person is not determined by one thing. For Israelis and Jews, Emansi's crimes are unforgivable, but it does not mean that he is subject to an unfair trial. Hannah started from this point of view. There are also mistakes in the law that need to be corrected, not to mention the thinking of Baijia. Aimanxi's calmness was unexpected, and he didn't seem to think he had to take responsibility, which was remarkable.

On the one hand, the film is a philosophical point of view, and on the other hand, it is used in the aspect of "emotion". Hannah in the movie is particularly infatuated, the cigarettes bring out a little literary atmosphere, and the cigarettes are also permeated with loneliness. The process of thinking is lonely, and so is the way of being questioned. Those who do great things must stand up to the wind and waves, and then become the atmosphere. There are indeed several parts of love in the movie. The love for his teacher Heidegger is the first part; the love for the husband is the second part; the love for the friend is the third part. With the description of love, it is helpful to write a person's life fragment in a more three-dimensional manner, and this level also beautifies the look and feel of the film.

In fact, there are also some commercial elements and shooting methods in the film, which are inevitably a bit cliché in terms of perception. But in the commercial market, there is such a profound work, and it is already a good shot. Whether it is casting or material selection, it is topical and watchable.

And this film naturally has elements in business, humanistic care and women's self-improvement, just to describe Hannah, the giantess. The main point of the film is to tell the audience that Hannah's perseverance, perseverance, and to ask the audience to "think" about the politics of life, without flinching. Whether a person is good or bad is not to be questioned by the immediate conditions, but to look at things in multiple directions. It doesn't matter whether Hannah's argument is right or wrong, what matters is that the audience and readers have a deeper view after reading it.

  • Hans Jonas: But Eichmann is a monster. And when I say monster, I don't mean Satan. You don't need to be smart or powerful to behave like a monster.
