rohan: yes, that's one major potential prbelom with the film but I think the film manages to avoid this by focussing on one individual story and also because of the very sensitive performance by Muhe. Even in the beginning of the film you can already see in his haunted look that he is not really "at home" there in the Stasi organization and that's why when the change of heart comes it doesn't feel like a surprise or even remotely manipulative. The film also avoids those cliched messages about redemption or triumph of human spirit or how love wins against odds etc etc. I really don't think it asks to be seen a portrait of a "typical" Stasi man. As a German Florian HD must be aware of the prbeloms and ironies of this sentimental view of arts... After all, most nazis were music-buffs and germany was one the most culturally advanced nations on earth.In the last section of the film Schindler's List actually does all these things, that's why even if it was based on a true story, the film (or at least its intended "message") feels false, dishonest and manipulative. The film overall is still remarkable for its craft but there again as in the notorious "shower" scene Spielberg seems to forget that he is making a film about holocaust and not one of his regular blockbuster-thrillers...though thankfully those moments are very few.
