It came during a busy time and I neglected to go back and answer.<br /><br />I think your explanation is valid, and I think I sort-of justified it to myself in the review (funnily enough, I was originally going to single the sex-massacre scene out for my one real criticism, but then as I started writing a sort of built-in rebuttal, I found that I took more to my counter-response than the original point). Like I said, it visualizes the cultural guilt of Jews, who have suffered so horribly as a people that it seems individuals are almost required to feel bad about what's happened. It's a weight no one can bear; and after the Holocaust, it seems like even something as relatively minor as the Munich Massacre can just be the straw that breaks the camel's back.Jake Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15532951308638768249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-494160638739613756.post-21716757955349201382012-03-28T19:25:43.500-04:002012-03-28T19:25:43.500-04:00Christopher Hitchens' criticisms of the film a...Christopher Hitchens' criticisms of the film always sounded odd to me. He was by no means the most elegant of film critics (if I recall, he once compared <i>Inglourious Basterds</i> to "having a bucket of piss dumped over my head"), but I wish he had expanded more on what he found to be so "laughable" about the film, particularly his criticisms of Craig's performance. I mean, sure, Craig has some over-the-top lines, but then again there are Zionists in the world who really do say hateful things like that. I know Hitchens was a big fan of J.G. Ballard, though, so I wonder what he thought of what Spielberg did with <i>Empire of the Sun</i>.<br /><br />Your point that it might have been more realistic of Avner to think about his own killings (rather than the Munich Massacre) during sex with his wife is a valid one. I guess one reason why he thinks about the Munich Massacre instead is because that's the only violence that he's been depicted as thinking about -- and I mean shown to be <i>really</i> thinking about -- during the course of the film. The opening scene of him watching the massacre's coverage on TV proves that he does seem a little devastated by the fact that his people, Jews, are being butchered in Germany all over again, and those constant reminders by both his own mother and Ephraim that he needs to avenge Munich, protect Israel, etc., condition him into killing others.<br /><br />I'd say the reason why he doesn't think about his own killings during sex with his wife is because he tells Steve and Hans, during that dinner scene by candlelight, that he's stopped feeling any remorse about them. His daily routine is to wake up, go out and kill, go home, go to bed and feel nothing at all. And when he returns to his wife and daughter, he feels roughly the same way, although by that point he's hating Israelis, too, because he suspects them of harassing his family. So while having sex with his wife, the images of the Munich Massacre pop up again, perhaps to remind him once more that, no -- Israelis are the <i>good</i> guys, they're the victims in all of this and need to be defended against goons like Black September. But, yeah, by that point his whole mindset is so fucked up he doesn't know what to believe anymore. He hasn't let his own killings haunt his conscience, but he's let an incident he never even witnessed haunt it, and now look where that's led him?<br /><br />So, the last scene of the movie, when he goes out to have his final chat with Ephraim, is really the first time in the movie when Avner is finally willing to come to terms with his own killings. And it's probably because it's the only opportunity Avner will ever get to discuss his killings with anybody other than the men he killed with, i.e. Steve, especially since his own mother says she doesn't want him to tell her what he did. A night of bad sex with the wife has confirmed that the conditioning device of the Munich Massacre isn't helping him anymore, so his conversation with Ephraim provides an attempt to think about the <i>other</i> killings (his own), which he's been trying to justify throughout the whole movie. Of course, Ephraim is no help, and no wonder -- he's one of those guys who put those Munich Massacre-conditioning images into Avner's head.<br /><br />Avner, it's true, didn't witness the massacre, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's unreasonable for him to imagine how it might have gone down. Spielberg, Kushner and Eric Roth, after all, didn't witness the massacre either, but they have undoubtedly pondered for decades about what might have happened during it, what its consequences were, and how those consequences affect them as Jews.Adam Zanziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14524618281515322239noreply@blogger.com
