    Adapted from the Nobel Prize in Literature, which won the Palme d'Or and Owai. Metaphors about nation and war run through the whole film, and the absurd and treacherous plot makes the film full of highlights. The little actors are natural, and the director's ability to train the actors is unparalleled (thinking that he was only in his early 10s when he acted in this film, he broke down a bit), which is amazing. However, some scenes in the film are blunt and the language of the shots is single....

    Adapted from the original book of the same name by Günter Glass (top ten favorite novels + top ten favorite adapted movies). 1. From the perspective of the dwarf Oscar's rough life experience, the film criticizes the false ugliness of the adult world, revealing the sinfulness of Nazi acts and the depravity of human nature. 2. The tin drum is a concrete body of resistance to consciousness and self-repression. Only by abandoning the drum can we usher in real growth. 3. Hidden at the bottom of the...

    When you think about it, it's very political. The German father, the Polish uncle, the Danzig mother, and the Jewish Max correspond to the four realities. Oscar seems to be a bystander, but after all, he cannot escape being swayed by these four. The meaning of not wanting to grow up can’t be more straightforward. In the end, I got on the train and went back to my grandmother to bake potatoes, which corresponds to the beginning, implying that the nation’s return to its mother (the source) is in...

    The first time I saw Oscar yelling and shattering the glass on the clock, I almost broke out laughing. Some absurd, some politically allegorical films. hehe. Not bad. You can take a look. (Because of the drums, it may be a little...

    Tin drum


      It's the heat, it's the decadent twilight
      , it's the fiction of some child's fantasies,
      it's the unclean embrace of a coveted adult,
      it's the people who are strangers as soon as they walk in the mirror, and
      love turns against them, and the rain has unspeakable dangers
      
      It's new...

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!
