Glück ist ein verhexter Ort

Do exactly what you're paid for and nothing more

Absolutely refuse to be available to contact when you're off the clock

Never prioritize work over your own health, wellbeing, or family because that would be insane, it's just a job.

Have a little glass of wine

Take as long as you feel like for lunch

Deeply understand that work doesn't matter

the phantom menace is the first in the prequel trilogy, and by necessity for the overall three part story structure, it is childish, bright and whimsical, sweet and hopeful with an underlying malice that will only grow. anakin is still just a boy, a kind and generous and playful boy, who lives in a galaxy that is not yet twisted by war. the movie communicates this in a variety of ways, through the color story of the film, through the music, through jokes, through jar jar.

remove jar jar and you have a different film entirely, you know? he is an essential part of the mixture. he lightens every scene he's in, a necessary clown, with slapstick and low humor, to adulterate the high drama of the political world. his role gets smaller and smaller over the course of the trilogy, as the world dives into suffering and strife. he's forced into a respectable position, forced to play along with the adults, unfit for his position but doing his best, but his innocent clownery in phantom menace is essential first.

Sorry, his commands are in French.
