This is not a film review, it is just a chat, where the bullshit is. Sol is a task force in the concentration camp, a handyman who handles corpses and ashes. Encountered an incident, a boy in the gas chamber survived, then was smothered to death by the Nazis. Saul began to insist on treating the child as his own son, and wanted to find a Jewish rabbi to hold the funeral for the child. Since this idea hit his mind, it has been lingering like the "dream implantation" in "Inception". In order to do this, I would rather "kill all of us alive for the sake of a dead person"—companion language, which is specifically expressed as that he has ignored the life and death of his companions—hidden the child’s body to everyone’s resting place (if discovered by the Nazis, everyone All suffered), regardless of the life and death of others-to find a hidden rabbi, because others refused to help him bury his "son", so he indirectly (or directly) killed that person (being shot by the Nazis). Everyone was trying to escape the concentration camp before the last juncture--because they were going to enter the gas chamber soon, Sol was unmoved, and everyone asked him to go to the person who took the gunpowder and was lost by him— He doesn't care at all. In the eyes of his companions, Saul is definitely not more cute than the Nazis, only possibly more annoying. In the eyes of the audience, it is likely to be the same. All these make it impossible to watch the film happily. Because this Thor is really annoying. This film is different from any previous film about concentration camps. Everyone’s established impression is that they are all friends in the concentration camps, and people will unite and take care of each other. This film is not, in order to survive, the "prisoners" in the concentration camps are better than wolves. Wolfer, blacker than black, crueler than cruel, more numb than numb. The protagonist is not only against the laws of "concentration camps", it is simply against humanity. The life and death of his companions do not care at all. How can such an anti-genre film, such an annoying protagonist, and so many concentration camp refugees who do not fit everyone's imagination, become an awesome film. The director actually wanted to express this. Those who actively planned to escape the concentration camp were nothing but futile in Saul's eyes. There was a scene like this. The companion said: You will kill us all like this. Sol said: We are already dead. When he said this, I think I understood what the director ultimately wanted to express. Recalling the look of Saul at the beginning of the movie, from the first scene, it was the face of a dead person. It should have been a dead person since the first time the corpse in the gas chamber was processed—physically. The demise is a matter of time. And survived in that gas chamber, and was The child who was killed, let him come alive, find a rabbi for the child to chant and bury it, and become the only light in his dark life. I took a similar film to "click and break" it, so it's easy to understand. If you have watched "Suspect X's Dedication", you know why Saul is doing this. X in "Suspect X's Devotion" was about to hang himself. The neighbor knocked on the door to keep him alive. From then on, protecting his neighbor's mother and daughter was his only hope for life. Saul was for the child-even though it was not his son at all. Finding a rabbi to bury him was the only thing that made him feel alive. It can also be said that I believe in the existence of miracles, want to do it all, and ask for a light of hope. At the end of the film, he saw a living child and felt his light of hope appeared-he smiled for the first time and was satisfied. In this place of death, he felt like he was born again. The director found such an entry point from a bunch of stereotyped concentration camp films, and played in the opposite direction, and it was done.
