2014-12-06 20:04 Stealing seems to be a bad act, but during the war years, when food was scarce, she sneaked into a rich man's house and only stole books to read to dying relatives and friends. It is understandable to say noble. Liesa's story begins in Germany in 1939. She was sent to an adoptive family, the Hands home at No. 33 Paradise Street, Munich. Hans and his wife Rosa treated Lisa as their own, and the neighbor boy Rudy also adored Liesa. It's just that this little yellow-haired boy didn't finish saying "I love you" before he died. Of course Lisa understood his heart. He kept a secret for Lisa and dived into the icy river for her to salvage her diary. When his soul was taken away by death, Lisa still gave him the kiss she'd been betting on. The story is told slowly in the oral language of the god of death. If this is just a hard story of a small family, it is enough in the context of wartime. However, let the god of death tell it, then it is a life and death. Involuntarily, in the end, the Jewish Max, who was hidden by the Hans family, returned to Lisa, while the others were taken away by death on a night without an air raid siren. The story has never left Paradise Street, and revolves entirely around Lisa. The story of death also reminds us to think about what kind of life is meaningful, strong, just, and brave?

    The plot is a bit bland

    The rhythm is a bit chaotic, the theme is not clear, but the girl's beautiful big eyes and cute German accent can't stand it. The costumes in the movie are amazing. Uniforms, small flowers, lace can be seen everywhere, and there is a grinder on the wall. , always inadvertently remind you of the beauty of life. Favorite line is: If your eyes could talk, what would they say?
