As a citizen of the Celestial Dynasty, there is a despicable sobriety, that is, all attempts to pour the blood of history and the fortress of war crimes with romantic wine glasses. Follow the protagonists into the eye of the fascist storm, but you can't feel the strict organization, thought and action of this so-called world's most high-quality society, feel the nationwide fever of nationalism, and feel that the youth league members are instigated and tortured. Ignite the burning enthusiasm for serving the country, and I can't feel the mainstream atmosphere that should be imposed on the protagonists at that moment. These young Werthers are still immersed in the half-dreamer and half-awakened consciousness of free will like the Dead Poets Society, still passive, outsider, suspicious, even calm and fighting. With a gap of 70 years, the retorts written by the teenagers in the film with pens are exactly the same as those discussed in contemporary BBS.
The director tried his best to show the stunning beauty of the Aryan teenager, and also the destruction of beauty. What is really tragic is that, under such a heavy proposition, the juvenile Narcissus-style over-description not only makes light of it, but also turns the criticism of Germany into an overtone.
This can't help but remind people of another German film "Eavesdropping Storm" that won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. This film about the East German Iron Curtain received a lot of help from East Germany during the filming and was able to enter the institution of the year. Filming of the building. Only the former director of the East German Prison Museum refused. His reason is: the script does not conform to historical facts. In the entire history of East Germany, there was not a single secret policeman who was "discovered by conscience" like the protagonist of the movie.
