    In a word, this film is brilliant. It moves effortlessly between Python-esque silliness and Diary of Anne Frank dread.

    Captain K's case was especially tricky, because he was a Nazi officer that had been wounded in battle and ended up scarred and lost an eye, so the "racial purity" thing meant that he was no longer perfect and was removed from his command and assigned to that post with the children as a punishment despite being obviously very competent and still a great shot. In addition to that, he was secretly gay, which was another thing the Nazis did not accept, and that's partly why he sympathized with Jojo and Rosie and kept Elsa's secret and save Jojo at the end of the movie. I always wondered if the battle where he got wounded was a deliberate failure on his part to sort of sabotage the Nazis from within.

      Captain K is actually regular Wehrmacht. His character really is a typical German who thought he was fighting for his country and then realized what the Nazis are about. He portrays a person who is beaten. When they burn the books he is drinking heavily. He is also gay but if it gets missed by the viewer they have the pink triangles on his and his lover's uniforms. The Nazis would put the pink triangle on gay concentration camp prisoners. At the end he plays the part of a Nazi by calling JoJo a dirty Jew to save JoJo's life. I wouldn't be surprised in the director's cut it was also the double intention for him to die because he lover died in the battle.

    Jojo was 10 in 1944.
    Hitler & Nazis took control of Germany in 1932
    Jojo knows nothing else - but what he sees and hears all his life, apart from what his parents & old sister taught him.

    I love the back and forth between Nazis & Jews.
    Jojo: “Beethoven.”
    Elsa: “Einstein.”
    Jojo: “Bach.”
    Elsa: “Gershwin.”
    Jojo: “Brahms, Wagner, Mozart.”
    Elsa: “Musicians, is that all you have?”
    Jojo: “Rilke.”
    Elsa: “Of course your favorite, Rilke. Jewish Mother.”
    Jojo: “Dietrich, then.”
    Elsa: “Houdini.”
    Jojo: “No, that’s impossible.”
    Elsa: “Believe it brother, just ask Pissaro, Modigliani, Man Ray, Gertrude Stein, Mr. Moses and the king of them all, Jesus Christi. Amen. Pew, pew, pew!”

    About the word "Aryan," it was used before the Nazis to talk about the ancient Indo-Iranians or their branch of the Indo-European language family. Which wasn't even that close to the Germanic branch. Plus it's pretty unlikely they were blond and blue-eyed, but Hitler didn't let little things like facts get in his way.

    This is one of my favorite movies...so glad you reacted to it! I saw this before watching it with me wife. Then when I watched with her, I realized we were in trouble when she commented, early on in the film, that she thought Scarlet's shoes were cute. It had the appropriate effect on her, as it did me, at the reveal towards the end of the movie.

    This movie is a perfect combo of comedy and sadness. It shows the war from a child’s view, they dont show the battlefields, excluding the ending, but you get the weight the war is having. From the hanging body to Captain K-who is gay and that was a no no, and Captain K clearly did not believe in the Nazi/Hitler views, but it was either train the kids or be killed. Great reaction by the way!

    Imaginary Hitler is eating a Unicorn head and also constantly trying to make Jojo smoke cigarettes'. In reality Hitler was an anti-smoking vegetarian, which I'm sure Taika Waititi knew when he was making the imaginary figure that is not suppose to be the real Hitler, but just the figure of imagination of a 10-yo boy. Taika Waititi is part Jewish himself, just as Scarlett Johansson has a Danish father and an American mother of Polish-Jewish ancestry, so she has dual Danish-American citizenship. The Polish-Jewish side of her family really suffered horribly during the war, while the Danish Jews never even wore an identification mark (like the yellow star), unlike in the rest of occupied Europe, and eventually the Danes also saved all their Jews from the nazi extermination camps, though at the end 464 Jews, who did not manage to escape in time to Sweden, were captured by the Germans and sent to the Theresienstadt Ghetto and concentration camp, but even then, representatives from the Danish government managed to persuade the Germans to accept packages of food and medicine to be sent to all the Danish prisoners, also persuading the Germans not to deport any Danish Jews to extermination camps.
    In February 1944, now knowing that the war was practically lost, the German SS embarked on a propaganda "beautification" campaign to prepare the Theresienstadt ghetto for the visit from the Danish Red Cross and a delegation from the Danish government. Many "prominent" prisoners and all the Danish Jews were re-housed in private, superior quarters. The streets were renamed and cleaned; sham shops and a school were set up and the SS also encouraged the prisoners to perform an increasing number of cultural activities. Still, a total of 51 mainly elderly Danish Jews got sick and died of disease or old age at Theresienstadt, but non of them went to the extermination camps and so thankfully almost all of Denmark's Jewish population survived. So Scarlett Johansson have both a Danish Northern European and Polish-Jewish understanding of this part of history, that made this kind of role a perfect fit for her.

So he put the youth against a chalk board with their noses in a chalk ring and would beat them with a riding crop if they stepped down.....Dad volunteered to watch the kids while the CO. could go eat, drink, etc....Dad would let the kids sit down every time the CO left....Dad just saw KIDS....Misguided kids.....

    People always comments that Captain K brings Rosie's bike to Jojo's home when he arrives but just ignore them as it's a false fan theory.
    If they took 5 seconds to look at the bike they'd see it's not her bike and even the Director Taika Waititi stated it wasn't her bike as-well but it doesn't seem to stop people constantly posting it.

    • @Hexon66
      @Hexon66 2 года назад

      The fact that bike actually elicits that kind of reaction kind of establishes it as a de facto truth. And considering how central the bike is to K's entrance, it's hard to believe that Waititi didn't have that in mind. Having a different bike allows it open for interpretation, but the bike itself is very intentionally representative.

    • @SovermanandVioboy

      If its not true than they should edit the scene and make it true - it gives the whole scene and Ks Characters so much more depth. Its one of my fav hidden details about the movie - like once u realise it, it gives u the chills.
      Its ok, that Taika stated that the theory is wrong; has to be weird for a creative mind, when the audience comes up with an idea that is so much better than your original one.

    • @serahnkahukura8433
      @serahnkahukura8433 2 года назад

      It's so crazy to me that people think that'd be a plot point. Wouldn't Jojo wonder why Cptn K had his mum's bike? Wouldn't he ask where his mum was? It's clear from the dialogue that they haven't caught her. If they had, wouldn't Cptn K gently break the news instead of letting Jojo discover her in the square? Fan theories make no sense sometimes.

    Let me explain what you're watching. First, to understand this movie you need to know world history!! Prior to WW2 and during WW2 in Germany, the Nazi party created a German Youth Organization vaguely similar to the Western Boy Scouts. It was called the Hitler Youth. I say vaguely similar because the Hitler Youth program was intended to create young Germans who would become future tough soldiers. They would train in military tactics, camp in the forest, teach skills such as building bunkers, creating fighting positions, simulate battles, weapons training, physical toughness, aggressive fighting amongst each other (i.e. - boxing, wrestling, etc.). As mentioned, the intension was to change the children into loyal, fanatic Nazi future soldiers. They had a similar program for the female German youth population. Different things were taught to the females but the program, as with the males, was to create females who would serve the Nazi party. Again, the program was called the Hitler Youth. Thus movie is obviously a parity of this program. Please read, don't watch, but read about the Hitler Youth program. You can Google "Hitler Youth Program". It will explain everything.

    I highly recommend watching Lonesome Dove (1989), with Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones.
    It’s a mini series with 4 episodes. So basically one very long film.
    It is one of the most beautiful, funny, exciting, heartbreaking stories ever.
    It is a western and it’s based on the book Lonesome Dove which is also my favourite book.

    Captain K is definitely NOT an SS Officer. Captain K was regular army. Depending on the branch, the SS officers were different uniforms of varying colors. The most infamous uniform being black which was worn by the unit responsible for enforcing Hitler's racial policies. Whatever the color, the SS uniforms had the distinctive SS patch on the uniform lapels. The SS were among the worst villains of WWII.

      Actually, u just have to look at the collar insignia and u can tell immidiatly. He has 2 Bars on both sides, that means hes from the Wehrmacht.
      He also has a silver stripe within each of the bars, what means that hes an officer (a normal soldier would have green stripes instead).
      The WaffenSS would have lightning-Runes on the right and rank-insignia on the left collar. No idea why ppl cant tell the difference within seconds, its so easy... u should know it from playing video games...
      Bars = Wehrmacht
      Lightnings = Waffen SS
