3. Jojo Rabbit movie review & film summary (2019) - Roger Ebert

  • A sweet German boy headed off to Nazi camp, where young men learn to throw grenades and young women learn the importance of having Aryan babies.

  • It’s clear that success has allowed Waititi to hire all the right people to execute his vision. And yet I left Jojo Rabbit thinking that the exact purpose and depth of that vision remained blurry.

5. Jojo Rabbit - Music and the Holocaust - World ORT

  • Set in a German town during World War II, the film follows the story of a young German boy, Jojo Betzler, who is a zealous Hitler Youth with low self-esteem.

  • In his work Music as Social Life: The Politics of Participation, ethnomusicologist and anthropologist Thomas Turino explores the role of music in shaping and reflecting social dynamics, arguing that music is a fundamental and integral aspect of human social existence. His central premise is that musical engagement reflects the two primary realms of human life: the ‘possible’ and the ‘actual’. In music, and in the arts more generally, the ‘possible’ is able to be depicted in the same way as the ‘actual’, as the semiotics of music and the arts are far more fluid than that of linguistics.
