    Is it considered a children's film, it can only be regarded as an absurd adult film made with children's vision. The least innocuous 3y child is twisted and forced to grow into a twisted dwarf. The adult world is too promiscuous enough to be seen. The so-called full of philosophy, but still do not understand where the truth is. No classics have been...

    Schlondorf fully expresses the feeling of Glass' novel, and some scenes are quite thoughtful, but what shocked me the most is that it was really not easy to find a 12-year-old friend to play...

    Joking, absurd, magical, Schlondorf denounced the sins of the Nazis, denounced lascivious mothers, cowardly fathers, denounced all evil in the world, and finally abandoned memory to gain a new life, but I think in the heaven we forget too quickly...

    The first few minutes made me happy (I admit, I rewinded it twice), and it seems that the so-called "sexy" is universally applicable. Absurdity from start to finish, throughout. It's nerve-wracking. It is said that the original work is more exciting, but unfortunately it is a big tome. I don’t know if I can have the patience to read...

    To be honest I'm quite...

    I think this film is really not my style. The editing is fragmented, although there are also absurdities, although there are sighs of life and the metaphorical atmosphere of fables, but I don’t think it is very easy to understand, and as a film, it is still a beautiful film with a few shots. Saying it's a story from the Polish region sounds like typical High German with an...

    The movie is a thriller, a cult, and the plot is even more interesting. You can believe it with saliva and soda candies! The story is rich, the ugly and straightforward human nature, the devil...

    Eighty percent of the original content is presented, so I give it eighty percent. Although I know that novels and movies are completely different ways of carrying a story. Once it is made into a movie, it has nothing to do with the novel. Loyalty is optional, and complete loyalty may not be good. You can even borrow only one story shell like Alice. As far as the film is concerned, this film has been completed well, and it is deeply felt that if you are looking forward to a film, do not read the...

    Magical realism is photographed so bluntly, full of straightforward symbols, it's not a metaphor, it's a simile. And enduring the urge to kick the protagonist countless...

    The darkness of society is presented one by one through the eyes of children. In the end, Oscar gave up the tin drum that he had been with all the time, hoping that he would start to grow up. Is it a helplessness or a compromise to the...

    A great movie "without a father"

    Schlondorf is one of the leading figures of the second generation of directors of the "New German Cinema" movement. His "The Tin Drum" and Fassbender's "Marriage of Maria-Braun" and other films not only announced to the world that German cinema was reborn, but also brought the "New German...

    Strong taste worth tasting

    This is a "growing up" story full of anti-humanity, gloom, world-weariness, and even sensory discomfort. In the beginning of the grassland, a man hiding from two pursuers hides under the skirt of a strange woman. During the negotiation between the woman and the pursuers, the man has a relationship...

The Tin Drum quotes

  • Schugger-Leo: A beautiful day! She's gone to the place where everything's so cheap. Habemus dominum

    Sigismund Markus: [Leo opens the door for Markus to let him into his taxi] Yes, it's a beautiful day. An unforgettable day. I too have seen the Lord.

    Schugger-Leo: You've also seen the Lord?

    [looking at Oskar]

    Schugger-Leo: Oskar. Habemus dominum, Oskar!

  • Maria Matzerath: [Oskar walks in secretly to find Alfred having sex with Maria] A little more. Just a little. But be careful

    Alfred Matzerath: Don't worry

    Maria Matzerath: Almost. Almost. Just a little more! But be careful!

    [Oskar jumps on Alfred, interrupting their sexual act. Alfred gets up and slaps him before the upset Maria stops him]

    Maria Matzerath: Alfred, stop it! Is it the kid's fault you're not careful?

    Alfred Matzerath: Me? Who kept asking for more?

    Maria Matzerath: I said, 'Be careful, it's coming soon.' But it never came at all!

    Alfred Matzerath: Never enough. You're all the same

    Maria Matzerath: In, out, finished. That's your idea of love. Well, go look for somebody else. You think I am some electric bell? You never take precautions!
