I only went to see it because of the orientation activities of the library, but I thought the title was quite interesting. I had seen it somewhere before, so I came here.
The opening scene was a long, long time ago, and I thought it would be a warm and friendly film. After watching it, I realized that it was far from what I imagined, just a combination of unusual perspective and tone.
The protagonist's first book was a gravedigger's manual picked up at his brother's funeral, but he stubbornly told his adoptive father that it belonged to him, but his caring father did not blame him, but turned reading and literacy into a pleasure for the two of them. , since then, words and books have become the companionship and desire of the protagonist.
For the Germans in World War II, the love of books was obviously just an extravagant hope. In front of the fire from the hill-like book, the protagonist did not sing as loudly as the others, and there was confusion, puzzlement, and even reluctance in her eyes! So after the crowd dispersed, he secretly picked up the smoking book and brought it back, and was discovered by his caring father again, so the book became the secret of the two. There is also the mayor's wife who also loves books, who allowed her to grow silently in that era and who provided a place to steal books; and Max, who took refuge in the basement, who guided her and encouraged her to describe and express in words! Describe the world, express yourself, and even soothe the mind in a dugout and guide the souls of comatose patients.
All the good things were so fragile and unrealistic in those days. An air raid without an alarm turned this small town into ruins. She also lost her nagging mother, caring and humorous father, and her best friend, he Finally got her kiss, but never felt it again.
The ending of the story, the reunion without suspense, seems to make up for the loss of family and friends before, but the death god as a bystander has lost his ruthlessness and only floats silently in the air. The god of death who dominates the body can only silently pay attention to the soul in the face of the soul...

    From the story itself to the way of shooting is full of obscenity, just look at Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson. For the first time there was a "what John Williams doing for the soundtrack to this thing" idea. And the theme turned out to be the love of books, it didn't reflect at all. Childish War Children's Literature.

    "So I let the actors speak English with a regular German accent so that the audience knows that they speak German, and most of the audience can understand..." Please stop deceiving yourself.
