An anti-war film full of warmth and a brutal war

The film is a film about the persecution of Jews and the brainwashing of Chinese people during Hitler's period in Germany from the perspective of a ten-year-old child, JOJO. The protagonist of the movie, JOJO, is an activist of the Hitler Youth League, innocent and easy to be brainwashed and controlled by the Nazis. Because he refused to kill a small animal, he had a nickname called Jojo Rabbit.

Jojo's mother is Scarlett Johansson, the black widow. Her acting skills are overwhelming. Not only is she full of charm, she is also a great mother in the play. On the surface, supporting Jojo's fanatical pursuit of Hitler is actually protecting Jojo. Especially after the conflict between Jojo and her mother, her mother painted her face with black carbon and then used her father's tone to talk to Jojo. At the end of the speech, the plot sets up a dance between Jojo and her mother. Jojo is well-behaved and sensible. In the dance between her mother and Jojo, the music is beautiful and the dancing is moving. In such a cruel war atmosphere, it is even more poignant and contrasting. .

Ostensibly working for a Nazi organization, Mom was actually secretly helping Jews hide from the Nazi Party and hiding a Jewish girl in her own home. Not only to help the girl in life, but also in spirit, Jojo's mother also gave the girl a lot of encouragement. One of the passages impressed me. The girl asked, "How did you do it? How do you know that some people can be trusted?" Jojo's mother said, "Just trust them." But Jojo's mother helped the Jewish girl because she helped the Jewish people. , was hanged in the square by the Nazis. Jojo saw her mother hanged in the square after being hanged to show the crowd. She didn't cry, but just hugged her mother's feet and shed tears quietly. Jojo saw that her mother's shoelaces were loose. Jojo tried to help her mother to tie the shoelaces, but was unsuccessful. This episode made me cry. Because Jojo is under the care of his mother, although he is in a brutal war environment, Jojo has always been an innocent boy with a carefree life.

There is a scene in the movie where her mother took Jojo out to play and said something to Jojo: "You are growing up too fast, you are not like a 10-year-old child, you should not celebrate wars and discuss politics at this age, you You should be climbing a tree at your age, and then falling off a tree when you are young, life is a gift, and we have to live every day." This sentence seems to be saying to Jojo, but it is actually an indictment of the war. A kind of yearning for a better life and the cause for which it is fought.

One of the scenes has to be said that the Nazis came to Jojo's house to search, and Captain Krensendorf was checking the identity information of the Jewish girl who pretended to be Jojo's sister. He knew that the Jewish girl was impersonating, but he did not expose it. At the end of the movie, Jojo and Captain Krensendorf were treated as captives by the American army, and when they were put together, Captain Krensendorf told Jojo that his mother was a good person, a really good person. The image of Captain Dove has been sublimated, and the brilliance of human nature has been infinitely magnified in the war. In the end, in order to prevent Jojo from being executed as a Nazi, Captain Krensendorf deliberately called Jojo a Jew, so Captain Krensendorf was executed as a Nazi on the spot, but Jojo was saved. What I have to mention here is that the film did not deliberately beautify the American soldiers, but actually reflected the cruelty of the war. The prisoners would be simply and rudely executed, not like some war movies, where the prisoners were treated preferentially. Eating and drinking, serving, and being too pretentious.

Finally, I just want to say that although we live in an era of peace, I cannot forget the suffering and terrible experiences that war has brought to people. Any war is a devastation to human beings, and any war is an act against humanity. I hope that every one of us in each generation can face up to the cruelty of war and cherish our current hard-won era of peace.
