The setting of the two fathers is very nice, one is the mother's Polish cousin, and the other is the German who loves her. If you examine the background of this film, you will find that the mother is a metaphor for a small town under the competition between Poland and Germany. From the beginning, she has a complex of attachment and slavery to these two countries. The cousin enjoys her body, and the German, as her husband, controls her behavior. Of course, at the same time, she has to depend on her husband's economy. On the one hand, he has to satisfy his own lust, which is enough for Oscar to subvert his understanding of "father", but this is only the first part of his experience of cruelty in the world, and it has since killed his desire to grow up. He found a way to fight, that is his screaming and tin drum. But when he saw his lover and his father get together, it might really be that sentence, it is not the person who is romantic, but the city.

    Absurd and real, innocent and lewd, child and adult, confrontational and helpless, tin drums and screams are stupefying

    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 it.

The Tin Drum quotes

  • Agnes Matzerath: Don't expect me to touch your eels.

    Alfred Matzerath: Don't put on airs.

    Agnes Matzerath: I'll never eat fish again. Certainly not eels.

    Alfred Matzerath: You've always eaten them, and you knew where they came from!

  • Bebra: You must join us, you must!

    Oskar Matzerath: You know, Mr. Bebra... to tell the truth, I prefer to be a member of the audience, and let my little art flower in secret.

    Bebra: My dear Oskar, trust an experienced colleague. Our kind must never sit in the audience. Our kind must perform and run the show, or the others will run *us*. The others are coming. They will occupy the fairgrounds, they will stage torchlight parades, build rostrums, fill the rostrums, and from those rostrums preach our destruction.
