Why was this memory holed? Everybody loves Jonathan Glazer yet it vanished so quickly like it never came out
THE ZONE OF INTEREST
why bad film forgotten
Didn't the guy say something about Palestine during his speech?
Because he embarrassed liberals by saying it's about Israel
I had my doubts but I think I'm going to watch this kino now that I know it's a metaphor for the Israel Palestine conflict
it's pretty good,
jobs a job
When will people get tired of Nazis bad? 6 billion died, ok we get it. Can we move on now?
retard OP thinks we should be having zone of interest general threads every day and fapping to blurry photos of the actresses feet
I remember his Oscar speech was basically shitting on Israel as a jew himself and the crowd cheered but I think they literally just didn't understand what he meant kek
he was terrified up there and actually shaking while reading it but seemed confused by the cheering
this wasn't a nazis bad movie though
2045.
this blew my fucking mind
why do chuds pretend nazis weren't comically evil when they had these JUST haircuts
I'm sorry I did nazi that movie yuk yuk
Yes it was. You were supposed to be shocked at how the Nazis could just live like that knowing they were next to a death mill.
Nobody cares about holobunga movies.
It was only used as a banal virtue signal. "DAE LE NAZI BAD???" Peak reddit.
I'm so utterly sick of media about the jews/nazis
that cold ending of people cleaning the Holocaust museum
Was was he criticizing?
auschwitz pusy must be so gas
The director refused to kiss the ring
When conservatives stop idolizing Nazis.
if you’re a simpleton sure

most nazis were extremely cowardly backstabbers. Very few died with dignity or didn't rat out their comrades for a better deal. Even those who later killed themselves like Goring and Himmler backstabbed Hitler hard and tried to strike a better deal with the Allies in exchange. Keep in mind that the star of the SS and "Hitler's favorite commando" Otto Skorzeny became a Mossad hitman and killed escaped Nazis for the Israeli regime.
Another fun fact: Of the 16 million German men who served in the Wehrmacht and SS in WW2 12 million surrendered and Germany never had a relevant post-occupation resistance movement of any kind when even places like Ethiopia and Albania managed to have one
The only other occupied state with this level of subservience was Japan, but that at least had their deified Emperor tell them to stand down. Hitler meanwhile told the Germans to fight to the last, and they all ignored it and collaborated with their occupiers to the fullest extent possible
does this television show and/or film accurately portray this?
you're low income and not even jew
WOT IF
LISTEN HERE
WOT IF WE FOLLOWED NAZIS IN THEIR DAY TO DAY LIVES
YOU STILL WITH ME?
BUT WOT IF THEY LIVED RIGHT NEAR A WORK CAMP?
FOOKIN MENTAL INNIT
Just another Holocaust gimmick movie
If only it was real.
says someone who never watched it
People are plebs, most of 'em. This film is good, top five of the decade.
I watched it. The gimmick is that the Holocaust happens offscreen or in the background while the MC does mundane bureaucrat shit. Banality of evil yada yada. The whole genre is played out.
What the fuck. They wasted him for season 3.
they really did. to just cut away during his "big moment" and then have a gag where he falls in the water during the shooting was just dumb. any other seasons they did fun stuff with the managers and he was just an after thought
More like Zone of Disinterest amirite lol
You're not wrong, lol. The general vibe of the film is the Nazi being apathetic about their surrounding and lives of jews.
WOT IF DA HALLOCOST WAS 'APPENIN ROIGHT OUTSOID YA WINDOW?!?
This was my favourite movie of 2023. I got legit chills when the movie cut to the heat vision footage of that girl. Jonathan Glazer angered a lot of Hollywood types with his Oscar speech, but I'm pretty sure before that night even Spielberg said it was the best holocaust movie since Schindler's List.
conservatives
idolizing Nazis
They refer to them as socialists and leftists
The gimmick is that the Holocaust happens offscreen or in the background while the MC does mundane bureaucrat shit. Banality of evil yada yada.
About what I expected. Glad I gave it a wide berth.
Making another holocaust horror movie the 2020's. Everyone gets it already. Fuck off.
it made growing up next to a concentration camp look comfy
every A24 film: WHAT IF WHITE PEOPLE, ARE LE BAD?
You don't understand, the Germans totally gassed an impossible number of jews and that's why we need to let them kill tens of thousands of children in Gaza.
ANTISEMITE
The whole premise of the film relies on the outdated 'Banality of Evil' thesis that Hannah Arendt proposed during the Eichmann trials. Arendt thought that the thought leaders and primary movers of the genocide, like Eichmann, were witless & mechanical bureaucrats -- without the ideological passion seen at the top of the SS & NSDAP. This is absolutely false, in the case of Eichmann. He cared deeply about the cause, writing down the minutes at the Wansee conference not out of deference to his superiors, but to fulfill his own ideological goal of Jewish extermination.
So, Jonathan Glazer relies upon this erroneous premise of bureaucratic apathy & disinterest, to build this elaborate house of universal cards that can be used as a political sledgehammer against the people that actually took action against their enemies (Israel). Glazer feels cucked by Israeli martial culture, and their individual prosecution of their historic enemies, just like Arendt did during the Eichmann trials. It's an interesting experiment in filmmaking, but ironically, the most banal thing is the idea Jewish extermination was a sterile, business as usual, ordinary affair for its perpetrators. This is the most effective propaganda to be disseminated by the NSDAP, and has lived on well beyond its years. The right depiction isn't the narrativised Schindler's List, or the indifferent Zone of Interest; but something inbetween. My preferred depiction is Polanski's The Pianist. Because he at least had proximity to the event. But you should just watch the 'Shoah' documentary, anyway.
Ironically, it had to be an unfamiliar Catholic to see through Arendt's journaloid spins on Eichmann. You can sense this brewing force of evil in his visage. Even if at surface glance he appears unremarkable.
I really liked the technical aspect of it.
Just leaving cameras around the residence and letting the actors live the daily life of their characters and then editing it into a film.
The White Ribbon is a functioning prequel because it's about german aryan kids in the 1910s who grew desensitized to cruelty and violence.
Same actor too, unrecognizable. Dude is great.
