These Jojo Rabbit quotes come from some of our favorite characters like Elsa and Jojo, and even Jojo’s imaginary version of his friend Hitler.
In 2011, Taika Waititi’s mother was telling him about a book she had read called Caging Skies.
He reportedly kept telling her he did not have time, but then finally read the book.
He reached out to the author and began the process of adapting her book into the movie Jojo Rabbit.
The author, Christine Leunens, said she was inspired to write the story after she heard a story from an elderly woman she had befriended, whose family hid a Jewish man after he had fled Poland.
The old lady and the man her family assisted ended up marrying after the war.
So, in a way, Jojo Rabbit is loosely based on an authentic story.
However, Taika didn’t want the movie to be another ‘sad Holocaust film,’ and that prompted him to invent the dunderheaded version of Adolph Hitler that Jojo imagines.
There are quite a few Jojo Rabbit quotes that remind us how sad and wrong the Holocaust was though.

The story takes place during the collapse of Nazi Germany in the fictional city of Falkenheim.
Johannes “Jojo” Betzler is a ten-year-old child that joins the Deutsches Jungvolk, the junior section of the Hitler Youth.
He is so indoctrinated with the ideals of Nazi Germany that he creates his imaginary friend, a silly and dunce manifestation of the real Hitler.
He earns the nickname ‘Jojo Rabbit,’ from his training camp instructor, Captain Klenzendorf, after refusing to kill a rabbit to prove he was worthy enough to be in the Hitler Youth.
Jojo gets a pep talk from “Hitler,” and returns to prove himself, by throwing a Stielhandgranate by himself.
It explodes at his feet and leaves him with a limp and a scar.
Klenzendorf is demoted and fights with Jojo’s mother about including her son.
One day alone at home, Jojo makes a shocking discovery.
His family has been hiding Elsa Korr, a teenage Jewish girl behind the walls of his late sister’s attic bedroom.
Jojo is scared and aggressive toward Elsa at first.
He also realizes the dilemma he faces, because if it is revealed that Rosie hid Elsa then all three of them would be executed.
Jojo convinces himself that he can use Elsa to pelajari intel about the ‘enemy.’
Elsa pushes Jojo to question his beliefs, and he slowly develops a crush on her.
He even forges love letters from her fiancé, Nathan.
More pentingly, though, he questions his patriotic beliefs, causing Adolf to scold him.
Jojo’s mother, and his lost father, have been more active in the resistance though and she is discovered for spreading anti-Nazi messaging.
One day Jojo sees his mom hanging from the gallows.
The movie and Jojo’s relationship with Elsa ubahs and develops from this point!
I won’t tell you how the movie ends, in case you want to go watch it.
