tidal wave
The Wave is a drama film directed by Dennis Gansel and starring Jogan Vogel, Frederick Law, Max Remet, and others, released in Germany on March 13, 2008.
Adapted from the novel of the same name by German novelist Todd Strasser, the film tells the story of high school teacher Reiner Wenger who leads students through a fascist dictatorship through classroom experiments.
On the campus of a secondary school in a small German town, a history teacher scoffed at the question of whether dictatorship could still happen in contemporary society. Next, the teacher and his classmates conducted an experiment simulating authoritarian politics, and he named the class organization "Wave" and guided the students to set up a unified slogan, a consistent greeting style, and the same clothing. After just three days, the students in the class had established a high degree of identification with their organization, they were united, excited and radical, and all the dissenting classmates were regarded as outliers. During a group brawl with the other classes, the history teacher realized the seriousness of the situation and gathered the whole class in the auditorium to announce the end of the experiment and the dissolution of the organization. However, it was too late, and an avid student had a nervous breakdown due to disillusionment with his "faith", shot and injured a classmate, and then committed suicide by drinking a bullet.
After the release of "The Wave", it caused a strong response from film critics and many scholars. The film is an experiment, but also a totalitarian funeral song. The film ends with a tragic ending with a dramatic tension, and the farce is infused with the director's deep thinking and profound criticism. The film provides the audience with a vivid picture of totalitarianism, while also depicting the "ragtag crowd" in the real world.
Death experiments
The Death Experiment is an adaptation of the Stanford Prison Experiment conducted at Stanford University in 1971. It was directed by Paul Schulling and starred Forrest Whitaker, Adrian Brody, and others. It is about a group of ordinary people who live in an environment and have different personality characteristics participate in an experiment. The experiment asked them to be randomly divided into two groups, locked in a simulated prison, one group of prison guards, and the rest of the prisoners. Throughout the experiment, prisoners had to obey the prison guards, who had the right to exercise some degree of "discipline" over the prisoners. If anyone can't stick to the experiment, it means that the experiment has failed, and everyone is busy in vain. If everyone sticks to it, they can get a huge bonus.
A controversial film that begins with a horrific experiment. The adaptation of real people and real events is based on the "Stanford Prison Experiment" by American psychologist Professor Zimbardo in 1971.
The film is about psychology, and the psychology of the characters in the experiment has been described, the clearest of which is the role played by Forest Whitaker, a middle-aged man who has been single for a long time and lives with his mother, and the psychological changes are portrayed more deeply. Inner loneliness, superficial introversion, self-inflicted extroverted conversations with strangers, and strange tempers in their own field after leaving home, perverted psychology are revealed.
Scientists recruit a group of ordinary good people, randomly divided into two groups, and several people play "jailers" to manage the "prisoners" played by others, to simulate two weeks of prison life. At first, everyone giggled, then the jailer began to use his power to maintain order, and then it developed into abuse of power, lynching, and venting personal emotions. Prisoner 77 led the "prisoners" in revenge against the "guards", and the whole prison fell out of control until the red lights and sirens representing the end of the experiment appeared.
The film is based on Mario Giordano's novel The Black Box.
