How humble human nature can be, how great it can be

After watching this movie, my mood is still mixed. First of all, it's a good movie, and it's very good in every way. He exposed the system, but more profoundly the human nature. Here are some important characters in the play.

Let's start with the unimportant, and now look for the minister. In the film, the minister is a big man, and he has an affair with the heroine. With a standard image of a high-ranking member, he can have no scruples about the existence of the driver, mess with the heroine in the carriage, or destroy her immediately after the heroine refuses to listen. He was ruthless and ruthless, just like the East German system at that time, but under the circumstances at the time, he was so unquestionable, and the words that came out of his disgusting mouth were so unquestionable.

Now let's talk about the heroine. The heroine is an actress who attaches great importance to her acting career and also loves great writers. When I saw her rejecting the minister's appointment and returning to the male lead, I believed in love. But when she betrayed a great writer for her acting career, I found that women value their careers no less than men. After thinking about it carefully, the heroine did not return to the writer because of love, nor betrayed the writer because of love for her career. Both of these things are because of the eavesdropper's words. It can be seen that the heroine is just a little woman who has no assertiveness and a firm position. Death in a car accident may be her best destination.

Great writers take risks for their own freedom beliefs, but they don't have much courage. Their group belonged to the kind of timid intellectuals who wouldn't have made a big deal if it wasn't for the eavesdropper's deliberate waterproofing. Hey, this is similar to how many intellectuals in our country, tragedy. After the great writer knew that his girlfriend had an affair with the minister, he just persuaded his girlfriend to leave the minister, which made me feel so weak and uncomfortable. But I have to admire the screenwriter of this film, the character creation is too flesh and blood, admiration and admiration.

Lieutenant Colonel of the Security Bureau, this buddy was played around by his subordinates, and he got into it. I don't know if the screenwriter took this to insinuate the incompetence of the East German government.

To the hero eavesdropper. Calm and hesitant blue eyes, not many words, not handsome, but he has his own perseverance and belief. What is he holding on to? I think it's art and freedom, of course, mostly freedom. He doesn't want to deprive great writers of the opportunity to create, he doesn't want actresses to commit themselves to ministers, and he doesn't want to do what he thinks is wrong. Maybe the eavesdropper does not go to the battlefield for freedom like the Freedom Guard, but he is also a staunch martyr in his own battlefield. During the six-year wiretapping, he was completely protecting the great writers in the later period, and even completely fabricated the content of the conversation (my brother, wrote the script by himself...), and even transferred the typewriter. It's easy to throw your head and shed blood, but it's too hard to stick to it for six years.

Okay, let's not talk about it, let's study the domestic spy war films carefully, don't be blind, it's good to shout in a high-profile, and it's too difficult to be distracted in a low-key manner.

    He raised the muzzle by an inch...The last two people who were changed their lives did not recognize each other, everything was silent, too romantic

The Lives of Others quotes

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: An innocent prisoner will become more angry by the hour due to the injustice suffered. He will shout and rage. A guilty prisoner becomes more calm and quiet. Or he cries. He knows he's there for a reason. The best way to establish guilt or innocence is non-stop interrogation.

  • Oberstleutnant Anton Grubitz: I have to show you something: "Prison Conditions for Subversive Artists: Based on Character Profile". Pretty scientific, eh? And look at this: "Dissertation Supervisor, A. Grubitz". That's great, isn't it? I only gave him a B. They shouldn't think getting a doctorate with me is easy. But his is first-class. Did you know that there are just five types of artists? Your guy, Dreyman, is a Type 4, a "hysterical anthropocentrist." Can't bear being alone, always talking, needing friends. That type should never be brought to trial. They thrive on that. Temporary detention is the best way to deal with them. Complete isolation and no set release date. No human contact the whole time, not even with the guards. Good treatment, no harassment, no abuse, no scandals, nothing they could write about later. After 10 months, we release. Suddenly, that guy won't cause us any more trouble. Know what the best part is? Most type 4s we've processed in this way never write anything again. Or paint anything, or whatever artists do. And that without any use of force. Just like that. Kind of like a present.
