If it wasn't for my daughter, who was watching this movie, it is estimated that according to my movie viewing entry, I would not be able to watch it for a while.
I don't like the cruelty and sadness unique to war movies.
Before watching this film, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the Holocaust committed in Germany during World War II. Since 1933, the German Nazi Party has been in dictatorship, and a large-scale anti-Semitic operation has gradually developed. On September 1, 1939, after Germany invaded Poland, the war of World War II was officially ignited in the European battlefield, and Germany slaughtered more than 6 million Jews. The film's male protagonist, Bruno's father, Professor Lupin, was a Nazi officer. He originally lived in Berlin with his wife and children. After his promotion, he went to work in a Jewish concentration camp, and his mission was to kill.
Bruno is a kind-hearted 8-year-old boy who grew up in a honeypot. He has a good friend to play with in Berlin. He only sees the beauty and happiness of childhood, so he is happiest when he moves to a new environment. The only thing that happened was to find Schmoor, a little boy in striped pajamas on the "farm" over the barbed wire.
Schmüll is a Jewish boy. In his cognition, he was locked up to work in a so-called farm. His father changed from a tailor to a leather shoe maker. In the end, he disappeared. Although all this was cruel, he had no sense of resistance. I don't understand why these are all, only food is his strength.
Bruno finds friends, betrays friends, and in order to atone for his sins, he helps his friends find his father in a pleasing manner.
Hungry, beaten, and drudgery, Schmoor was relieved to have Bruno's help.
And Professor Lupin, a hypocritical Nazi who represents all evil in Germany, investigates the lieutenant for concealing his father's thoughts and sends him to the front line, while he conceals his mother's truth and feels at ease. The propaganda film he made also became a foreshadowing for Bruno to climb to the wire mesh.
On the surface, this story seems bland, with no killing and no gunfire. However, the intensity of the direct attack is far more shocking than the deafening sound of artillery fire. From Bruno's perspective, pure goodness and beauty can never be compared to the evil of adults. On the one hand, the son is looking for his father, and the other is the father trying to find his son. What a great irony!
The reason why I was shocked can be summed up for two reasons. One is Bruno's kindness. A child who is like a blank piece of paper, knows nothing about war, and only uses what he sees and hears to dominate himself, which is really sad. Second, the original large number of Jews should have been killed more than Bruno's. However, after asking himself, it was Bruno's death that finally made him feel sad and sigh.
So the great thing about this movie is that the hatred of the Holocaust, the sadness of the Jewish people, is set off by the pain of the sons of Nazis being buried with them.
The boy in striped pajamas didn't really understand the meaning of the sentence until the last moment, and the thought was extremely frightening, and the back was cold...
