2021.11.23 Jojo's whimsical world heals the cruel world, only love and tolerance Under the influence of war atmosphere and military thinking, Jojo has a fanatical worship of Hitler and Nazis. For a long time, he would imagine that Hitler was talking to him, a Hitler with a moustache, a loose and fat military uniform, who liked crazy talk (eg: eating unicorns), full of irony. Before the gallows, Jojo turned her head to one side, and her mother broke Jojo's head over to let him realize the cruelty of war. Jojo asked "What did they do?" Mom answered "What they could." Guided by a butterfly, Jojo went to the gallows, but this time a pair of familiar red shoes caught his eye, and he It was clear whose shoes belonged to him, and his worldview was on the verge of collapsing at that moment. Jojo had never been on the battlefield, and the battlefield in his imagination was spectacular. Only when the US military entered his city did he realize that the war was not as simple as he thought. He doesn't believe in Hitler, he drives Hitler out of his mind. His mother said, "Life is a gift, we must celebrate it." The haze of war faded, and he and the Jewish girl his mother took in walked out of the house and danced in the sun. Although the film is set in World War II, it does not focus on the brutality of war, but on some of the good, good things that exist in war. Looking at the war from the eyes of a child, using the fairy tale narrative method, people can see the brilliance of humanity shining in the war. Jojo is also growing up. From the very beginning, he didn't send shoelaces, even helping the pair of red shoes he was familiar with, and finally helping the Jewish girl tie her shoelaces and bravely walk out of the house. At the same time, there is a certain irony. In Germany under the rule of fascism, ideological imprisonment permeates all aspects. From the age of ten children, they have been indoctrinated with the theory of racial superiority and inferiority. The Nazis always use a ridiculous and unrealistic concept. Words that make children believe that the Jewish race is an inferior race. While Jojo was in grief, his imaginary Hitler was feasting on unicorns. Germans always have to shout long live Hitler over and over again when they meet...

Jojo Rabbit quotes

  • Yorki: There are bigger things to worry about than Jews, Jojo. There's Russians somewhere out there. They're worse than anyone. I heard they eat babies and have sex with dogs. I mean like that's bad, right?

    Jojo: Sex with dogs?

    Yorki: Yeah. The Englishmen do it too. We have to stop them before they eat us and screw all our dogs.

  • Captain Klenzendorf: Well, if it isn't Herr Handgrenade himself.
