1. After a crime or after someone flees to the West, The Stasi operates by assuming that all people are guilty, then proceeding with interrogation until satisfactory. Before a crime, the Stasi spys on anyone suspicious with wiretapping, hidden microphones, and tails. In the movie, there is a recording of a suspect being interrogated. After an incredibly long amount of time, the suspect crys, and his story is the same, word for word, every time he is questioned, these indicate he is guilty.
2. People are threatened with their careers, or the future of family members. Writers, directors, and performers can be blacklisted, university students can be expelled. In some way, the government has leverage against everyone.
3. Grubitz is an ambitious agent, he doesn't care about the state so much as his career,Wiesler works diligently to uphold the state. Furthermore, Wiesler is more cynical about people in their support or aid for the state than Grubitz, he is more paranoid because he does more fieldwork.
4. Wiesler is initially an ardent supporter of the Stasi and the State. Because of his support for the State, he is convinced that all Stasi action is justified because of potential risks to the state. However, as he spys on "Laslo" he slowly questions the need for ruthless tactics. His support for the state does not waver until the end of the movie, when he ends up steaming envelopes, but his faith in the Stasi itself slowly crumbles throughout the movie.
5. "Sonata für einen guten Menschen" is a piece of music for the piano. Dreyman receives it as a present, and when he plays it, Wiesler shows his first emotional reaction of the movie. It begins Wiesler's slow shift towards disillusionment with the Stasi. Furthermore, when Dreyman publishes a book after the wall falls, he chooses the title "Sonata für einen guten Menschen" and dedicates it to HGW XX/7 (Wiesler), in gratitude for not having him arrested for his work and hiding the illegal typewriter. Both the music and the book show the extent of Dreyman and Sieland's effect on Wiesler as a person.
7. Sieland und Dreyman sind in einer ernsten live-in Beziehung. Sie sindloyal, engagiert, und kurz vor einem Engagement.
