Anti-war, reflection, sympathy for children.

The Tin Drum

4 stars, the quality of such an old movie is really good. I thought it was absurd when I watched it before, but now I think it is very meaningful, full of irony and helplessness. The adult world is full of darkness and filth, and war is full of blood and carnage. A child's world, no matter how beautiful and simple, will be overshadowed and grow deformed in distortion and sorrow. I didn't understand it when I was a child, but now I think it's quite anti-war. As a fable story movie, although there are some logical flaws, you can completely ignore it.

The Tin Drum short comments

    The darkness of society is presented one by one through the eyes of children. In the end, Oscar gave up the tin drum that he had been with all the time, hoping that he would start to grow up. Is it a helplessness or a compromise to the society?

    The twisted psychology of the adult world is undoubtedly revealed in Oscar, who will never grow up. In this turbulent historical process, in the face of this absurd war, only the evil humanity has survived. The film uses a child's perspective to attack the hypocrisy and ugliness of the adult world, uses absurd plots to accuse the crimes of Nazi acts, and examines the cruel reality from multiple perspectives. There is no lack of black humor in the dark tone, and the performance of the little actor is amazing~

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.
