The Reader

After reading "Life and Death Reading", I was so depressed. I am a person with a low tear point. I can cry when watching "Assembly" and "Brothers". If your tear point is also low, it is best to watch it by yourself.

A lot of people fooled me into thinking that this film was a tertiary film. To be honest, the first half is indeed similar. But by the time Machael heard henna's voice in court around the end of the first half, it was time to prepare tissues for the second half.

From the perspective of life experience, although my generation also had the coming-of-age ceremony in 1989, there were basically no gaps. My parents were lucky enough to escape going to the mountains and the countryside. As college graduates before the Cultural Revolution, they experienced far less cruelty than my uncles, uncles, and uncles. The era that can be compared with "Life and Death Reading" is our grandfather's generation, that is, the days of the 8-year Anti-Japanese War. Mr. Lao She's "Four Generations Together" is a classic. Many people my age have only watched TV series. I strongly recommend you watch the original.

"Four Generations Together" has a classic background. Lao She borrowed it from Mr. Qi to express: I didn't expect that we would survive 8 years, and I didn't expect that we would have to pay such a price. In the past, like the British-French Allied Forces and the Eight-Power Allied Forces in the Gengzi Year, Peiping was still the same Peiping.

Likewise, Lao She, who can write such subtexts, fell into the lake when he started exercising.

Anyway, what does "the reader" want to express at the end, there are probably a thousand interpretations for a thousand people, this is the charm of art. What I want to express is actually very simple, take a look, cry and cry, think about it, you can live without hyphenation, but you must follow my heart; your life has been hyphenated, and you must be worthy of it basic moral values. Although there are thousands of people, I will go.

    What Hannah cares about is whether she is educated, whether she is literate, whether she is found out about this secret that makes her feel inferior. What Mike and everyone else care about is whether she regrets her Nazi experience. I understand Hannah's daze, her life There has never been a process to teach her to recognize all of this, how can she be parachuted into recognition? I am Hannah and my mother is Mike. She thinks I am guilty. My crime is that I am afraid that I can't afford to buy a house and support my old age. My crime is that I am not willing to devote myself to a cause that is absolutely positive for society. The sin is that I don't have a hobby that I really love to fight poverty, I know Hannah.

The Reader quotes

  • Professor Rohl: Societies think they operate by something called morality, but they don't. They operate by something called law.

    Professor Rohl: 8000 people worked at Auschwitz. Precisely 19 have been convicted, and only 6 of murder.

    Professor Rohl: The question is never "Was it wrong", but "Was it legal". And not by our laws, no. By the laws at the time.
