Do we minimize tragedies by using them as plots in movies? - exploitation movies streaming
It seems that if there is a steady stream of films, in which the Holocaust is the slave trade, or tragedy, a plot or subplot. No writer to minimize the tragedy of these events around them in movies? In some movies about the Holocaust, survivors sometimes annoying, because they are not accurate representations. What are your thoughts? How to prevent exploitation, while the education?

I am glad that this question because several times I fought with myself that question. How can we decide what is funny about the actual events or tragedies common? Certainly we do not trivialize the seriousness of these events, especially when the facts are more recent. But for the love of art, we should just "Over It" and failed to get hurt? Or we should do more on people's feelings of us who witnessed these events firsthand.
I remember the film about 9 / 11 came, I thought it was too early. Most of us do not know who died that day, but all with experience in one way or another. For me it was too early, and I find this amusing tale. ButPeople are not directly related to the protest, why should he?
While I understand the argument that these films have some educational value, I think there should be a waiting period between the event and all these artistic initiatives. I believe that Western culture has desensitized many of us the reality of pain and human suffering. I believe that the human tragedy and its consequences should always take precedence over art.
Depending on the film. I doubt a film like Schindler's List, minimize the Holocaust, but one could argue something like the drive (despite the fact that the Holocaust, what was the movie about). Downplay a film that takes what is difficult not to increase the tragedy, above all, even if it is not accurate.
Roberto Rossellini said it did not reflect real life, how it happened, but how likely occurred. It's one thing to bear in mind the historical films there is a huge amount that we do not know about historical events and a good director there.
The best way to represent a historical event, is to remain faithful to as much as possible and should be, but the film rights. Saving Private Ryan is aFailure as a historical film, because, although it is very precise, every character a parody of a real person. They are just tools push to pull us to a conclusion. However, Hou Hsiao-hsien's masterpiece, City of Sadness great because it never reduces the tragedy of the White Terror in Taiwan, however, do not focus on this unique event which focuses on a family for the time and increases the human drama in the film. Instead of the entire event is focused on its effects in this family, and finally do a more comprehensive explanation so.
I do not agree that there is a waiting period between the tragic events and movies should be about them. Spike Lee's When the levees Broke ... is very exciting because it appeared onlyYears after Katrina. A great director can make a film about nothing.
