The key essay in this book analyzes the movie Seven Beauties, a spoof on a comic figure in a concentration camp, and the book The Survivor by Terrence Des Pres, an examination of why inmates survived in both Soviet and Nazi camps. For Bettelheim, surviving alone was no virtue. Keeping one’s moral integrity was. Losing one’s dignity, he believes, would be worse than death. Bettelheim rails against Seven Beauties’ death house comedy. Such works confuse aesthetic discrimination. The observer is induced not to take the murderous situation seriously. The psychiatrist notes that those who had strong religious conviction had a much higher chance of survival. His own experience in the camps informs him that cooperation rather than selfishness was more commonplace in the camps. According to Bettelheim, the situations described in the movie Seven Beauties are not credible and the characters are not believable, particularly the female commandant. She understood human nature too well, says the author, to commit such horrible acts. The man who threw himself into a sewer of waste rather than submit to continued indignities is the writer’s hero. Bettelheim’s critics believe that his views are unrealistic and border on a “blame the victim” psychology.
