    This movie reminds me of the famous verse of Bei Dao: "The vile is the passport of the vile, and the noble is the epitaph of the noble." Human nature is actually beyond any religion and doctrine, but most of the time the evil side of it prevailed. The last part of the monastery has a metaphorical meaning. In this story, whether human nature is sublimated or degenerated, the film gives us the...

    The perfect survival manual for the perfect war criminal, so depressing. Justice does not come sooner or later, but is perfectly buried in the hands of ugly humanity and greed for...

    I watched it after I downloaded it, but I found that it was a rare good movie, playing with good people and fooling bad people. This person's heart is too bad... It's just too...

    The movie itself was well done, but when I think of the real thing, I'm half-dead. Murder and set fire to the golden belt, repair bridges and make up roads, and there are no...

    The bad guys with smart brains are terrible... It feels like everyone in the movie has no good intentions, including the victims. Only Jan is responsible for the whole process of appearance and justice (although it is a fictional character, it can be seen that there is no humanity in the war) In history, justice was not done to the end, and Riphagen fled with the property he robbed from the Jews after the war. I went to Argentina to be chic, moved back to Switzerland in my old age, and was not...

    The angle is really very strange, but it is even more hateful to expose the Jews of their fellow citizens. The war is ruthless, the reality is cruel, how many wicked people have no evil...

    Compared with the positive characters who think they are "just", he is a "hero". Those decent guys are really stupid and...

    The first part is a slightly boring biography. The focus is on the latter part. Human nature is vulnerable. For their own benefit, people are fooled by lies again. Including the opposition army survivors, a small group, a communist member, a Jewish Bella Liphagen's wife, and many people are not satisfied with the ending. Because the kindness of good people is used again. When Yang En thinks about Bella's innocence and freedom, when he lets go of Liphagen, he is also pushing himself to a dead...

    Four stars, a brand-new perspective on the story of Nazi war criminals in troubled times. Human nature can be sold everywhere, and the wicked have no evil retribution, so history has fooled the past. There is no direct inclination in the film, but the transition of the shots is very subtle, especially the succession of several key scenes, which can be regarded as an irony and a sigh of...

    Another banal evil

    Hannah Arendt, speaking about Eichmann's trial, once defined the crimes of their Nazi accomplices as "banal evil". They all looked like ordinary people, no different from our kind, well-behaved, hard-working, breadwinner neighbors. Their only sin seems to be blindly following the orders of their...

    There is no good or evil, only profit

    This is something we have never dared to admit, that is, there is no truth in the world that good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. But why such propaganda has continued to this day is because some people need this kind of discourse to brainwash, paralyze, and facilitate their...
