Yes. This is very disappointing compared to the book 😥 the book is better because you can make up how it works and it tells how he *feels* and not just him going 😮😦😧😟
1:40 - 1:50 This is a key theme in the book. The power of knowledge. Father doesn't know because he doesn't know any other way. Jonas knows right and wrong from the emotions he has gained from the Giver's memories, so he recognizes the horror he is witnessing.
I think that was the point, they don't understand that this is basic murder and disregard for wellbeing. I can only imagine they treat adults in a similar fashion
Not gonna lie, I was kinda expecting more when I read the part of the twin being released. Honestly, I thought it was going to turn out into something like the anime, The Promised Neverland- so I was kinda disappointed when I found out what "release" meant- although I did know it had to do with death, which I was so sad when the twin died.
the book is more straight forward about release without saying it means death. It keeps getting brought up when it comes as a punishment or going away party that it's clear it means "execution" Here it's more mysterious
That’s the problem with their society. In an attempt to take away all the negatives, they also take away the positives. They don’t consider taking the good with the bad.
I read this book in school growing up. Bought it about 10 years ago as it stuck with me. Lent it to a friend about 5 years ago and never got it back. Just repurchased it on mothers day two days ago and read the whole thing. And i was SOBBING when i read this part again now that i have children. I dont think ill ever watch the movie, i know it wont be exactly like the book. But god. This qnd the Rosemary part shatter me every time.
@@briann5524 It’s sort of a contra-contradiction, by being identical, they are individuals who are ‘twins’, which breaks the mold of the lack of individuality. The general gist is that everyone is ‘alone’ and are brought together under common factors, one of which is birth. By being twins in a community where everyone else aren’t, that means YOU are unique (or at least rarer than normal) which translates to standing out, inequalities and thus change, something the community doesn’t want.
This scene became my horror for so many years. It triggers me to hate those people to decided to abort theyre child and those people who abused childrens. Now I have a son, I make sure I meet his needs.
To abort the fetus is not even a baby. U should not hate on people who abort. What if she was forced ? What if she was raped ? What if it was accidental? Please think of other women than yourself
This scene isn’t comparable to abortion. Abortion is much earlier in the pregnancy, before anything has developed, whereas this is an actual living infant.
I don’t understand why people find it bad that @Shiroi likes the scene in a positive way. I can really share his feelings. I laughed a bit and I found it funny. Especially how it was packed into the package and thrown into that hole😂 And I mean it’s a film. It wouldn’t ever happen in real life. You would rather send it to the moon or Mars to explore and bring the humanity forward. You would do some experiments with it. But that’s another theme. The scene really made me happy too in the end.😀
I mean, there is a point here.... how horrific must a world be where all forms of individuality, choice, and even morality are stripped from you? Where even the most minor of mistakes can result in you being executed. Where even the slightest bit of weakness will have you euthanized. It's a pretty shitty world. And yet there are people who want that world unironically. Remember in the opening of the book how an aircraft made a simple navigation error and flew over the town? The council wanted to shoot the plane down, but the Giver talked them out of it.... but instead the pilot was executed for his mistake. Sure, it was a mistake that startled everyone, but navigation errors happen in the real world even with today's tech. Imagine being executed for making a simple mistake that you could easily undergo some retraining to prevent from happening again. When I first read the book in school, I thought "Release" was akin to "Banishment"... boy was I wrong....
Because this movie was made before everything was woke. And they started including black in everything to please the public. Even going so far now to give roles to African Americans where the character isn't supposed to be.
I remember watching this in the theater. A bunch of pro-choice protesters came in to watch the movie after a protest nearby and they all cheered during this scene.
The book is a piece of poop. We are reading it in English subject. I'm from Germany and I must say that this piece of ,,art'' is crap. I wouldn't recommend it to any person who wants to do something with his/her/its/xier/sier life
It's an allegory and of course someone like you wouldn't understand. Maybe you don't have to like it, but don't call it crap in front of people who do. It is also a meaningful book about the importance of memories to society and the thin line between dystopias and utopias.
So we're all here from school?
Yep
yup
yeah..
yeah unfortunately... but reading the book literally gives me so much euphoria and It's so surreal I love it

I read the book and watched this in school
Thanking god every day
I'm currently reading it in school. This part pains me on so many levels
I love how Jonas is just looking at his father like "are you ok?" or in almost betrayal
he just like, packs it into a box and throws away the body like a piece of trash
But he doesn’t know
Just like abortion
I think that was the point, they don't understand that this is basic murder and disregard for wellbeing. I can only imagine they treat adults in a similar fashion

for me i did kind of expect it to be an injection for death but it still hit hard. Like its quite disturbing
@@gamerstheater1187 It was definitely scary
People say that logic shows us what is right and wrong. But logic can explain away anything. Emotions can not.
You got that so backwards
this part in the movie and book is so f****** dark
Oh God...... this scene is really disturbing..... even for baby lovers
What do you mean even for baby lovers? You mean especially for baby lovers, right?
"If you can't feel, then what's the point?" Boom.
That’s the problem with their society. In an attempt to take away all the negatives, they also take away the positives. They don’t consider taking the good with the bad.
One of my favorite books from my youth. It was nice to see it in a movie, but I liked the book better, and that’s not the norm for me.
Oh my god the way the video ends is pretty funny
The dad was like YEET
Bro just got put in a goddamn Ziploc bag and thrown down the trash chute
YEET
Just reading about this in class was f***ing petrifing
@♡Lovely Little Dancer♡ reading the book and then watching the movie after was scary
Yeah. When I told Mum about it when going home early due to a possible seizure, she was horrified.
@@mynameiskiki109 I forgot all about this book until now 😀
Also are you okay?
@@AuggieIsLGBTQ I am. The seizures only happen when I forgot to take my prescription meds.

Anyone else just read the book for school and about to watch the movie in class?
Yep
Anyone here from English class?
Here
Me 😂
Definitely!
I sew the movie but i live in japan
apart from the dialogue this is actually a copy and paste of the book
Of course it is
The book describes Jonas’ feelings of shock and betrayal towards his father better though.
Not really
@@IDidntWantAHandleUA-cam of course it does, it's words, it's easier to know what's in a character's head in a book than movie
He put him in a cardboard filing box from Office Depot.
They NEED to make Son a movie too...Son is about the baby and Jonas during and after these events
I watched this movie at school, during my 8th grade year
Yes I’m reading the book at school right now
Bro couldn't they just put the twins in different families instead of killing the smallest?
The book says they kill one twin because they don't want identical people in the Community
Alr
@@nvrmind1497 Isn't that a contradiction though? I thought they were tryingn to elimate differences, what's more 'similar' than twins?
@@briann5524 it is pretty contradictory, but thats just what the book said

Abortion is sometimes needed.
But what if the mother is like- a child-
To abort the fetus is not even a baby. U should not hate on people who abort. What if she was forced ? What if she was raped ? What if it was accidental? Please think of other women than yourself
Don't hate women for aborting. You don't know their story. And you don't know the dangers that birth may have on their body.
This scene isn’t comparable to abortion. Abortion is much earlier in the pregnancy, before anything has developed, whereas this is an actual living infant.
This show is a huge trigger
Where in the movie is this scene so i can skip it
This scene is so hard to watch.
Our teacher skipped this scene-
The book is better can we make it just like the book
They made 12yo read this...
We’re old enough
Yes. Because it's important
I chose to read this book lol.
Glad I remember it.
@@JoMcD21 I mean yea it was fun to read in class while looking at your friend to see his reaction
I legit started laughing when jonas said HE KIKLED IT
and then a kid in my class said SMASH
I cant 💀💀
Ugh, the book was so much better.
I just wish they at least hadn’t changed his age from the book
Dudeee
im famous im in the movie!
Horrific
The movie is honestly pretty bad, most of this isn’t even in the book.
I can't fucking watch this movie. Fuck...
When I was watching the baby die I said out loud "Your UberEats is on the way."
That's weird
This makes me happy
You have no soul

@@jeromeb6777 Somewhere out there it probably happened IRL with that baby thrown in the trash...
This made me sick. THE FACT THEAT IN THE COMITY DOES THIS IS FUCKING SICK
Doesnt he save the baby in the book?
No, when he saw the footage the baby was already dead. You're confusing this baby with Gabriel, the baby they were fostering for an extra year.
@@loner1878 ohhh gotcha thanks for the refresher I havent read the book in years
I thought the opening several minutes were like "Brave new world". But it wasn't.

Abortion after birth XDDD
