The tone of the film, like most WWII films, is grim. Concentration camps surrounded by iron fences have a unique smell of war. The Nazis' slaughter of Jewish groups has never stopped, and the moment their lives fall before their eyes, it seems to them that there are only one less target. Although the film did not show any blood dripping from the beginning to the end, the hideous people repeatedly showed their teeth and claws in the camera, showing off their might.
In order to save his life, Jew Giles had to pretend to be a Persian. In addition to the daily work in the concentration camp, he had to teach the German Nazi officer Captain Koch "Persian". Giles, of course, doesn't understand real Persian, so he can only find a way to make it up. Koch was required to learn a different vocabulary every day, from a few to as many as ten, so Giles kept writing fake Persian words on his own. Obviously, this is the dual pressure of body and mind for a normal person, while working in a concentration camp tremblingly, at the same time creating countless false words in the shortest time and remembering them, making mistakes or showing their faults is The price of a whole life. By chance, Giles was arranged to transcribe the list of prisoners in the camp every day, so he began to use the root of the prisoner's name to make up the word "Persian", which was obviously a dangerous move. In case Koch noticed the list, If you compare it with the "Persian" words you have learned, the whole thing will be revealed, which is also the worrying and worrying part of the whole process. But the irony is that even though Koch inspected Giles' work every day and carried the words by heart, he did not find any connection between the names of the names and the words "Persian". After all, where did the prisoners in the concentration camps look in his eyes? It can be regarded as a human being, but it is just a must, or nothing at all. Until finally, on the eve of liberation, before Koch separated from Gilles, he had not found any problems with the Persian he had learned.
There are many people who have a very swaying attitude towards Koch, as Koch himself argues "I have not killed any of your companions and lives". Yes, Koch didn't kill anyone with his own hands, he didn't use any tools, he was just in charge of feeding the Nazi officers in the concentration camp every day, and even had one or two acts of kindness towards Gilles for whatever reason. private purpose. But he is indeed unforgivable because he is a Nazi. If someone comes forward and says that we should look at things from a different perspective, but what I want to say is that the Nazis can't, even if he is just in it, it is helping the monarchy. Most of the time, it is easy for most people to feel compassion because of some people's small actions, and these compassion will make you forget the state you should be in. In a concentration camp, maybe the act of delivering food to prisoners can make one think that a certain Nazi officer is not that bad. The reason why he is a Nazi may only be obeying others, but often you forget that those prisoners who are detained have original possessions. The right to food is meant to grow and breathe freely. If someone regards human beings or a certain race of human beings as enemies and deprives them of the rights to breathe, live, and freedom that they should enjoy as human beings, then all the so-called goodwill is false in the face of these. They could not see the despair in the gas chambers and the incinerators, much less the weeping human souls floating over the concentration camps. So, talk about the open side of the Internet, and talk about the difficulties? The phrase "you didn't kill people, but you fed the murderers" is exactly what it said, after all, they are still the same raccoon dog.
Having been using names to make up fake Persian words, Giles recites the full names of more than 2,000 concentration camp prisoners at the end of the film. Maybe you will say that they are all gone, only the names are left, what's the use. But in this world, there are three levels of death, one is physical death, that is, physical death; the second is social death, that is, your social relationship recognizes your death; the third is spiritual death, that is, the world No one in the world remembers you and your name anymore; Giles' existence, in a sense, is to allow more than two thousand lives to survive in the world, to let the world know and remember that they were so vivid Existed, this is the heaviest and most precious dignity they have been given. I believe that in those dark days, there must have been many, many miracles. Needless to say, Schindler's List/A Beautiful Life is a classic. We are often moved not only by the kinship of flesh and blood, not only by someone who saves the common people like God, but by the lofty respect that most human beings have for life in contrast to the Nazis. The tribute brought tears to my eyes.
Giles was not a person, but a group of people through whom the suffocating war had been cracked in some corner, and light and air had come in. Maybe you have walked barefoot through winter after winter, but there are always people who want to try their best to reach out and take you out of the cold. It is precisely because of this that there is human nature among human beings, and human nature shines most of the time.
