    All this just for some shitty "war is le bad" take, who even watches shit like this anymore?
    The funniest part about it is that this homosexual wasn't even being forced to kill people unlike many of the conscripts from conquered territory, he was offered medical service but still refuse because muh oath to Hitler
    Just lie motherfricker, the priest literally spells it out for him, God doesn't care what you say, only what you believe.
    I can't think of this film as anything more than a convoluted story about an assisted suicide.

      the movie is about how oppressive regimes will use people's family/community to get people to compromise what they believe. about how doing the right thing, often, hell, almost always, doesn't have a reward.

          making this story about Hitler is inherantly boring because it entangles a personal decision about right and wrong with a much broader issue that is already settled. hence Man For All Seasons being better. you've got to attack the "why even bother resisting" issue directly or you're just going to get melodrama and hagiography.

            the tactics employed to compel conscription, alone, are evil. everything else could've been, (and probably should've been, for the sake of people like you) glossed over, obfuscated, or outright ignored, because the movie isn't about hitler, the holocaust, or world war 2, its about resisting tyranny, even even if its hard, if there is no benefit.

                Germans and Austrians are neither "similar" nor "dissimilar" and it all depends on the specific region and people within the individual country. We're (Germany) a historically diverse country with hundreds of different social and cultural customs and aspects that range from stark language differences to religious thought. Not to mention that racially speaking Germans also greatly differ depending on what place you look at. Before you make ignorant statements like "Austria and Germany" are similar you should realize just how fricking different people in the next village and town in Germany are compared to those living on the other side of the forest. That's just Germany, Austria has an even stronger racial difference due to its historic land.

                I don't know what "subjected to the same government" means because frick, dude, German states and Austria have, if anything, historically been at the other's throat.

                No. First of all, I haven't read about the real Jägerstätter, which is why I'm basing what I'm saying on what I've seen from the movie (around 1h of it). The fact film Jägerstätter refused doing the Hitler salute seemed petty to me, rebellious for rebellion's sake, so I turned it off. It's not that he refuses to hurt or kill but simply Caesar's authority outright. Maybe I'm wrong here, but this stuff really bugged me.

                My main issue is the depiction of Jägerstätter as being petty when it comes to recognizing Hitler's authority. I'm generally questioning where you draw the line when it comes to obedience. As long as it doesn't offend God's law, you are to obey Caesar's, are you not? If Caesar conscribes you, aren't you to follow until he tells you to go against God?

      The movie is not about any take. The plot is unbeliavable.
      It's just 3 hours of a specific aesthethic,
      There are plebs out there who say "omg this aesthetic is the best shit in the world, thank you for recommending me this movie"
      and then they come back with " wtf bro it was 3 hours "
      it was made to insult them, to show them that they are posers

          The way the movie told it seemed ridiculous in places. Having Karl Markovics (israeli) play the antisemitic mayor felt like parody to me.

      I feel the same, way too long, to begin with.
      And not accepting the lesser evil – a medic position late in a war that will be lost anyway – to save your family and turn your wife into a widow is a shit decision, period.
      By the way, did you know that uh... war is LE BAD?

            this is why the world is the way it is right now. because everyone screams, cries, claws, gnashes and hurls stones at anyone who implies the easy road, may not be the right road.

              People have been behaving like that since the birth of Humanity, stop projecting your "muh degeneracy" on everything.

              so you're going to tell your children to go fight and die for israel when the call comes?

              You either join the resistance and take on the fight against the regime you hate, or join them and do the minimal required to survive.
              But this whole "conscientious objector" thing is homosexual.

                there was no resistance to join. you're basically saying you should only ever go with the flow. that you should never have principles unless you're surrounded by people with the same principles.

                you're advocating cowardice.

                Black person, if that were true, we wouldn't be having this conversation right now. we'd still be in mudhuts in africa bathing in urine and mixing our shit with mud and covering ourselves with it so the mega-fauna don't eat us.

    I think he should have done his duty for his Volk and Vaterland.
    While he was moaning about his convictions, men were fighting and dying against the Stalin regime. Germany was fighting for Europe against Judeo Bolshevism.
    The movie was alright, but they were really just idolizing a coward. If he was truly brave he would have been on the Ostfront knocking out T34s.

      yeah, I get that take now. I can see how his self-sacrifice would be a perfect ideal if he had been
      (1) resisting the bad guys (nazis stood against everything that is wrong with the world) - the actual sacrifice would have been to die for them at the front
      (2) didn't have family and wife. the second others depend on you, you just bite your lip and do whatever is best for them - in this case: take a fricking oath you don't mean so your 5-year-old does not have her fricking life ruined.
      this is also why you don't start a family in the first place: it becomes impossible to represent the highest possible ideals. Jesus never took a wife.

        One of the points the movie makes is the occupying regime is literally using his love for family against him, to force compliance. And you’re saying he should’ve just given in.

        tons of images from search engines will have filenames like that. I just did a quick search on my computer for files starting with "tumblr" and got literally hundreds of results. i have never visited the site in my life and I'm not even sure what exactly tumblr is, i only know the meme of it being a place for bluehaired morbidly obese socialists.
