Chapter 13 question
Szpilman is in hiding in a room that he can not leave. He is actually locked in from the outside. He is brought food every week by a family who cares for him. But every day szpilman wonders If they will come into his building and find him. Szpilman decided that he will nor let the Germans take him alive so he has planned out ways of comiting suicide. He made a nuce and hung it from the celing and put a chair under it. What would be going though your head if you had to wake up and see the same four walls for weeks on end, as well as think that at any time you may need to kill yourself, what thoughts would be going though your head? Also in the movie one difference I noticed is that in the movie he puts a chair up to the window so that if the Germans came he would run and jump, he never prepared a nuce for himself.

If I was stuck in the same room for weeks on end I would start to get really tired of it. Also if I was hiding from the Germans, I would be really scared all the time. Everyday that I woke up I would wonder if it was going to be the day that the Germans would find me. I would be constantly thinking about what would happen if they did find me. I would not be able to kill myself I don't think.
ReplyDeleteif i was stuck in the same room week after week i would start to go crazy. i am a very antsy person and staying in the same room like szpilman had too would not be good at all. i would start having panic attacks and my mind would go crazy i think. and to comment on the movie, that is very strange that they change it in the movie instead of actually doing what they had in the book. i wonder why directors sometimes do that, like change what actually happens and make it to what they want it to be.
