...JHZC The Boy In The Striped Pajamas: Summary The movie started with an eight-year-old boy, named Bruno, running across Berlin with his three friends. Bruno is the son of a government official, a soldier of the Nazi period, named Ralf. When Bruno went home, he saw that their things are being prepared and packed by the house servants. He was confused of what’s happening and so his mother, together with his sister, named Gretel, approached him and said something about having good news. Bruno doesn’t have any idea what the good news was about. Later that day, Bruno learned that the good news was about his father being promoted to become a higher-ranking soldier. Because of the promotion, Bruno and his family need to leave Berlin and move to the countryside where their new house is located. He was very reluctant to leave Berlin because he will miss his friends. Eventually, Bruno and his family left Berlin and finally arrived at the countryside. Bruno was very lonely when he first step foot on the place. He cannot see other children whom he can play with. One day, Bruno peeked through his new bedroom’s window and saw what he think was a farm. He then asked his mother if he could play with the children at the farm. At first, his mother agreed to it but when he mentioned that something was strange about the people in the farm, his mother asked him what was it. Bruno answered that the people in the farm are all wearing pajamas. He also mentioned that their servant, named Pavel...

...Bruno had imagined a great adventure ahead. All in all, it seemed like a very sensible plan and a good way to say goodbye… but what Bruno didn’t know is that things would become excessively out of hand. The next day Bruno got up to find out it was raining. Oh drats, Bruno thought. What if it rains all day and I get my new shoes all muddy? Then when I stomp in them, the sides won’t light up. Bruno, sad at the thought of ruining his new shoes, dragged his body out of bed, got dressed, and went through his usual morning. He ate his breakfast of Lucky Charms with his irritating older sister, went to school with Herr Liszt, got lunch (which was spaghettios with gold fish and sour cream) and ended the day with Herr Liszt, who was droning on about a piece of literature with stupid sparkling vampires, teenage romance, and car accidents killing angtsy teens while Bruno was coloring in his Hello Kitty’s Island Adventure coloring book. When his lessons were done and Gretel stole his coloring book to make paper airplanes, Bruno decided to go visit his friend, Shmuel. He put on his helmet, boots, biker’s cape and headed out to his motorcycle. Bruno loved his motorcycle more than almost anything. It was a birthday present from the Fury (whom he did not like very much, but at least he gave good presents.) It was painted jet black and had ghostly skulls painted across it. Black wasn’t particularly his choice of color, but the skulls were neat. Once outside, Bruno walked to the...

...The Boy in The Striped Pajamas Bruno (Asa Butterfield) is the son of a Nazi officer. When his father receives a promotion, the young boy must move with his family away from his friends and his comfortable home in Berlin. He quickly becomes bored in his new surroundings in the countryside where he has no one to play with. From his bedroom window he can see a neighboring “farm” where all of the occupants wear “pajamas.” Hoping to play with the kids there, he can’t wait to go pay them a visit. Though his mother repeatedly warns him not to venture far from the house, his curiosity gets the best of him and he sneaks off to go exploring. It is on one of these adventures through the woods that he stumbles upon the barbed wire fence that encircles the neighboring concentration camp. Behind it he finds Shmuel (Jack Scanlon), a Jewish boy who is the same age as him. They quickly develop a friendship, interacting as much as they can while separated by the fence. Though they are both somewhat oblivious to the horrors taking place around them, they will both ultimately be affected by the events of the war. This film is very well done, yet difficult to watch. While there is no graphic violence depicted on the screen, the film is none the less heartbreaking. Because the story is told through the eyes of an 8-year-old boy, much of what we see seems mostly benign. Bruno simply doesn’t understand the things that he sees. Unfortunately for us, as adults, we do. All of the actors...

...A theme of The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is despite the difficult circumstances/situations, people can become friends. This theme is developed from two characters who became friends during a dangerous time period. Bruno is the son of an SS officer, and Shmuel is a Jewish prisoner who lives in a concentration camp. The concentration camp is a deadly camp called Auschwitz operated by Nazi soldiers during the Holocaust and led by Bruno’s father. Both of the boys don’t know what’s going on, especially Bruno, but they become friends in Nazi Poland and their thoughts and feelings show how their relationships are as good friends.

...Stories have been a part of human culture since the beginning. In the ancient times, people verbally recited epic stories of heroes, villains, monsters, and other elevated characters. These stories reflected the people’s problems, triumphs, and traditions, and served as a valuable source of entertainment. From the ancient times to the present, authors have written many stories covering many topics. One of these stories, written relatively recently, is the book “The Boy In The Striped Pajamas.” This book tells a story of the holocaust through a nine year old boy’s eyes. In the book, the young boy, Bruno, is tutored by an older man named Herr Liszt. Bruno prefered reading and art, while Liszt was fond of history and geography. Because of this, Bruno asked Liszt “But aren’t books important?” (Boyne 97). Liszt promptly responded “Books about things that matter in the world, of course, but not...

...CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND I. INTRODUCTION Phenomenology is a qualitative research method originally developed by the philosopher Edmund Husserl.[1] The termed phenomenology is both a philosophy and a research method. As a philosophy, phenomenology is a particular way of approaching the world and apprehending lived experience[2]. As a research method, phenomenology is a rigorous process of reexamining what Husserl termed “the things themselves.”[3] The question of phenomenological inquiry is about the meaning of human experience and asks, “What is it like?” Phenomenology is a way of thinking about what life experiences are like for people[4] and is primarily concerned with interpreting the meaning of these experiences. Phenomenological research “explores the humanness of a being in the world”[5]. Bergum refers to the phenomenological research method as an “action-sensitive-understanding” that begins and ends in the practical acting of everyday life and leads to a practical knowledge of thoughtful action. Phenomenological research is an introspective human science, the intent of which is to interpret and to understand as opposed to observing, measuring, explaining, and predicting)[6]. The intention is to go beyond the aspects of life taken for granted and “to uncover the meanings in everyday practice in such a way that they are not destroyed, distorted, decontextualized, trivialized or sentimentalized”.[7] To answer the question, “What is it...

...In my research into the differences between prejudice and discrimination I have found that people in society have blurred the lines between the two words. We often see one being misused for the other even though they have completely different meanings, actions, and thoughts. In the purest form of the word, prejudice is feeling differently towards a certain group or groups that have a trait that they do not like or agree with. Everyone can be and is prejudice at some point in their life. Discrimination is where a person has prejudice towards a person or group of people and takes action. In today's society we tend to want to group the two together and make them seem like they are the ultimate evil, but in reality one is a common place occurrence that is usually kept behind closed doors while the other is not a good thing and can lead some to horrible actions. When I researched the two words I immediately noticed the way that they can be grouped together. I noticed that it is one trait as humans that we can't escape as hard as we try. It does not matter what race, gender, sexual orientation, or social class that you belong to there will always be one thing that makes us feel prejudice. Prejudice stems from the way that we as humans stereotype each other. Prejudice is usually completely unjustified and has no roots in reality. It is a positive or negative attitude towards people or groups for the way that they interact socially. I realized that in some cases prejudice can lead...

...Having different beliefs and cultures has always been around and has always been problematic, two perfect examples being the Greensborough 4 documentary and the Boy in the Striped Pajamas movie. The Greensborough 4 documentary dealt with African American segregation and they boy in the striped pajama dealt concentration camps and the killing of jews. Culture and beliefs change within time periods, where you are, and what you believe in. Individuals in their society are affected by beliefs and culture, you can see this in the boy in the striped pajamas because Bruno thought that jews were bad because that is what everyone around him believed and his culture hated jews. This also goes with The Greensborough 4 documentary. People did not like African Americans...

...Animal fur trading Since Stone Age, people would peel the skin from their prey as a symbol of conquest, they showed off their power， their strength by putting the fur on their back, they also believed this would bless them, bless them away from death, and make them survive from the war between tribes. As we stepped into 21th century the definition of “war” in our mind is more and more blurry, the scene of war still stays at the Hollywood war movies on the cinema screens. People do not want fight, and they live in harmony. People get wealth the same time when they get a long time of peaceful life. Is it true that they do not want war? Yes it is, the amount of death caused by war in 20 century is 10 times more than that nowadays. But what if I ask you, is the greedy in our mind is truly disappear? Are we truly don’t want to deprivation from others? No, we don’t have the courage the courage to say ”yes”-----every year, 50 millions of animal are killed for fur, this almost equals the population of South Korea, people are still want to occupy things, this is normal, but if we think about this , your dog would pee on the roots of the tree to show this belongs to it, people ask me how dare I compare people with dogs, well, I have to admit that this is a little bit rude and offended, but the pee of dog can bring nutrition to the tree, what can we bring? Does the blood that seep into the earth would do the same thing too? What can it show except advertise the greedy of human beings...

...The Boy in the Striped Pajamas Quiz Please write using complete sentence and use your own words for each answer. Be sure to check grammar and spelling. You may write on the quiz sheet, but it is recommended you use own paper for writing answers. 1. Why are Bruno (Asa Butterfield) and Shmuel (Jack) drawn to each other, despite their opposing circumstances? Bruno and Shmuel are drawn to each other simply because they are two kids of similar age that don’t have any friends where they reside. Despite their “political” differences, they were able to relate to one another by playing games and just getting a sense of each other’s daily lives and activities 2. Gretel (Amber Beattie) believes Father (David Thewlis) and his peers in their viewpoints on the persecution of Jews. Through Bruno is even younger than her, why does he question these viewpoints while Gretel does not? Gretel seems to believe in his Father’s viewpoints because she has the mindset of a realist. She backs up her views, along with the viewpoints of her father’s peers with the propaganda that she reads along with her professor’s teachings. Bruno, on the other hand, is more ignorant and naïve, which is very understandable for someone his age. His attitude towards the persecution of Jews is an unbiased one, and that the treatment that they receive is unjust and cruel. He doesn’t really grasp the magnitude of political differences that the Jews and Nazi’s have. 3. Contrast Father with Lieutenant Kotler...
