The movie should win, but not only because of its historical value. It is filmed without the actors knowing which of the different cameras was actually recording. That's very interesting.

Having read extensively about the Holocaust in the years since Nuremberg and the Eichmann trial, I have come to disagree with Arendt's original assessment, or more precisely I think it's an incomplete picture. These men understood exactly what they were doing, and absolutely possessed the agency to put a stop to it. Men like Schindler and Hosenfeld and Rommel and probably many others are evidence enough of that. They had become so desensitized to the humanity of their victims that they simply stopped caring about the evil of what they were doing. Men like Eichmann instead rechanneled their conception of virtues towards things like "industriousness" and "loyalty" and "respect for authority," instead of "compassion." They were also so self-deluded that they thought Germany was at the precipice of victory against the Soviets, and so believed that their crimes would ultimately never be prosecuted.

I agree that these people knew what they were doing, but I’m not sure they had the agency to stop anything. There were plenty of people that spoke out against the regime, and most of those people were strung up in local town squares or sent to camps (and possibly their families too). Most people were far too scared to do anything or simply indifferent and preferred to turn a blind eye; to act took incredible bravery. I think people like these were attracted to these roles either for ideological reasons and/or professional ambition; or they were plain evil.

This movie has stayed with me too. I have also felt compelled to look into the people it was based on. I rewatched it again so I could focus on parts I was unsure of what it meant. I’m now listening to the audiobook which is of course different from the film but is also showing the banality of evil.

what i keep thinking about now, is the smell. it must have permeated the air, everything - the stench from the ovens. that is what really horrifies me.

Rudolf is a man who loves with his family. He dosent love his job in fact he finds it aggravating and annoying, working long hours just wanting to come home to his loving wife who cooks him dinner and his children who gift him with presents and birthday dinners. His house is located near a lake where he has picnics. His wife is and that he has to leave and go somewhere else on business. Their garden is the dream garden any housewife could ask for. Their servants heed their word and give them anything they choose. Swimming pools and cocktail party’s fill their days…. Oh yeah and they also happen to live right next door to one of the most closest depictions of human hell ever created on earth. A Nazi death camp which main goal is to exterminate thousands and thousands of people where her husband works. Children screaming and crying don’t disturb but add Audio joy to Hedwig and her house. The sound of bugs and and crickets at night in our normal suburban town are substituted for screaming gunshots and crying. Sorry to be so graphic but the film wants to put u in that mindset . Is it pleasant? No. But not every film should be.

Glazer is a genius filmmaker and writer. Love seeing him receive praise. This is a haunting masterpiece. I hope it wins best picture. Glazer spent years researching and working on this. I need to read the book now. This is a brillant review.

The fact that the audience is moved more by this film than by the reality of our own time says more about the decadence and corruption of our collective psyche than anything else.

Watching now and so far there’s creepy and unsettling that basically you’re just watching people live ordinary lives while on the other side of that wall they know damn well what those sounds are and they are not phased at all to have any conscience whatsoever.

Don’t forget the music in this film: the overture prepares our ears for what is to come, and a stentorian theme, like Tibetan Buddhist ritual, blasts in at certain key moment. This music is a character in the story, like the ‘voice of god’. Another take from me was in later scenes, you see Hoss in meetings and social events in Berlin - there’s lots of conversation and background hubbub, and you can’t help scan this sound for horrors . . . . Another Brit director with a talent for sound is Peter Strickland. ‘Bait’ and ‘Enys Men’ both have unique sound-worlds. All owe a great debt to David Lynch, Francis Coppola, Jean-Luc Godard and Stanley Kubrick for their pioneering focus on sound in the medium.

The background noise -- constant rumble -- could not have been accurate. Auschwitz I was not an execution camp (although many thousands lost their lives there). Instead, the camp served as a transit camp for prisoners and slave laborers. It did have a single crematorium in the center of the camp to dispose of bodies but was used sparingly. The execution camp, Auschwitz II - Birkenau, was over two miles away and could not have been seen. Most likely the noises from over the wall were the sounds of prisoners and guards, sometimes shots, trains, and motorized vehicles from the road next to the house. But I understand the necessity of the noise in the film, although probably not very accurate. I highly recommend reading Rudolf Hoss' memoir of his time as camp commandant. He wrote it in prison while awaiting his execution. It sets the stage for this movie and provides a much deeper understanding of the reality of life from the other side.

I expected to actually HEAR at least a little of the said sound 😑

The sounds were more imporant than the dialogue. This film was very very very hard to hear. It was horrific to watch the children playing with human teeth. The few views of Auswitz showed smoke, orange light and the sight of the striped pajamas. The reverse B&W photos of the girl hiding fruit for the workers was haunting. But the sound was definitely the driving force throughout the film.

But the Villa was located near Auschwitz I, not Auschwitz Birkenau were the main huge extermination facilities were located, and were the full horrors of the factory of death took place. Right?

Yes, very interesting film, outstanding use of sound - but that said, many films have excellent sound, to be fair. Remember also, that what is over the wall, which we do not see, is what the writers of history told us it was, not the actual reality. And there has been a lot of claims, some with definite evidence, that some parts of the story are not as they have been told, or at least open to further investigation. The attraction itself, has over the years lowered the amount of occupants liquidated from 4.5 million, to around 1 million or less today. That is a huge reduction. Most likely, the family would have thought over the fence was basically a "work camp", period. They would not be aware of what we believe today, whether it be truth, or a type of truth based on revision or exaggeration to create a type of secular religion of Jewish identity. You see, this film is psychological programming of a sort, we bring our modern propagandized knowledge of history, back to an artificial historical lab, played by actors who represent real people, and then we use our minds to fill in the missing parts of the story. I think this films stands as a testimony to how central secular Jewish individuals have created a sense of identity from this place, they wallow in it, and how it is constantly used by Israel to endorse and support their actions, no matter how terrible and inhumane.

I tend to agree with you. In a way its similar to slavery of a century and a half or more ago as a reason to exploit today's taxpayers and voters and black Americans themselves and produce nothing but harm to society by constantly picking at a well-healed scar and reopening it again and again and people begin imagining their "own reality" of what slavery was instead of the reality, which was something in between. There are people who milk the victim mentality over and over, to the point that Obama was literally telling the families of the 5 police officers who were assassinated while sitting in their patrol cars were essentially to blame for their own deaths because of their white racist anti-black attitudes, when one of the cops was Asian and another was black or Latino, I think. That is still disturbing. The Holocaust was almost a sacrifice in order to give Jewish people a homeland. It was horrible whether the numbers were 10 million, 6 million, or 1 million. I could go on and on about these things, but it gets dull.

Little if anything has been made of the similarity between the zone of interest and the Peace festival--both walled off from the horror happening on the other side. WHEN the Peace festival is discussed , people say--how dare they do something so terrible to such peace-loving people at a peace festival , rather than expose the fact that it shares a wall with people who are living a horrible life and not for 5 years as with the Jews but for 75 years, not to mention the years that preceded when the Jews came to that land and started killing the Palestinians and taking their homes. Not only is this NOT mentioned by the public who knew of this film but it was NEVER mentioned really at the academy, just the term Gaza was mentioned a couple times by the producer Mr James Wilson but with NO emotion or outrage and NO emotion ever in the audience who's enjoying their la de la life while babies are being shot and children are being killed and maimed and women killed day after day after day. I'm noTt impressed with this film and I'm definitely NOT impressed with HOW it was presented and received at the academy with NO recognition given that we're actually living this now. THIS is NOT history. WE are living this now and we are forced to live behind a wall even though unlike the Germans including the good Germans we are protesting; we are fighting; people are self-immolating and this speaker at the academy acts like no one's doing anything. He is doing NOTHING & the academy did NOTHING but people are doing whatever they can to protest the horror of the Zionist Jews massacring an entire people.

@@russlowe how many times did we need to see the characters in the movie walk around the garden or walk around the house turning off light switches?? You want to see a real movie about the holocaust? Try boy in the stripe pajamas or son of Saul or even Schindler’s list. This last 5 minutes of the actual aushchwitz is what needed to be replicated throughout the movie.

@@Zeitgeist6 Son of Saul, Boy in Stripe Pajamas and Schindler’s list is far and beyond better than this. They actually depict what it was like. There was no climax to this movie.

Worst movie A24 has made and I went in knowing what to expect. I knew it would be mostly dialogue and focusing on good picture but all in all, not great.

If you know the historical timeline of Hoss's career then it makes more sense. But most people don't have a clue. My only complaint was the subtitles were tiny at the bottom of the screen and appeared so fast having no time to read them. That's was really frustrating.

@@RemyCT63 I liked the movie and I say I expected more but honestly I’m not sure what I even expected more of. Maybe if I did a bit more research I would have gotten it more.

Agree. Waste of good concept. Not all that but you can't not like it, it seems which is very National Socialist in itself.

See it again. Plain and simple. Read about how Glazer made the film and why, and see it again solo. It’s a masterpiece and you’re missing it. It’s extremely profound.

​@@skipbennyI honestly don't know what research you'd really need to do to understand this besides just the basics of the Holocaust and how camps were utilized. May I ask what about it you didn't like? In my opinion this is one of the best Holocaust films ever made. The use of on screen Jewish suffering is something that has disturbed me since a child. While there are certainly ways to do it with care after Schindlers list Holocaust movies more or less entered the realm of "Oscar bait" and while there are many good ones there are far more exploitative ones. When it comes to the Holocaust the lesson to be learned from it to me is not really the suffering of jews or other victims. While that's important what takes precedent is how that violence came to be. How normal people were turned into cogs in the well oiled machine of mass murder. This movie exemplifies this idea masterfully in a way I don't think I've seen on screen before.

The fact this is currently a reality is sickening
