    Look, people have, throughout history, have woken up in the dead of the night, confronted by blackness. The sense that our lives are without meaning. Men's great achievements have brought him to the place where life as we know it may cease in the foreseeable future. But the blackness, it's not. Whatever despair you feel about bringing a child into this world cannot equal the despair of taking a child from...

    The atmosphere is very good, minimalist and symmetrical, serious and depressing, retro and dignified. It's a love story at the...

    The babbling Christian-Environmentalist Apocalypse. There are good paragraphs, and the overall atmosphere is also in place: despair and redemption in the end of the world. The plot is simple, the superposition of several connotations of "doomsday", and the expression is not a big problem - as a movie, it is really lackluster and boring. The narrative borrows too much from lines and narration, and is filled with religious, political and historical symbols that keep people out of reach, and there...

    Dilemma, Schrader is again involved in religion, and as a director. It's unexpected that the score is so low. Although I don't particularly like it, it is qualified in all aspects, so I still give it half a...

    It's too stable, and the disgusting theme also pressed me on the chair and couldn't move, the tragedy of the martyrdom of the lost believer, which is neat and down-to-earth without losing the highlights, the setting and development of the characters are very good. It is a pity that some places feel a little artificial because of the dissonance of the whole shot. It would be better to adjust it in the direction and...

    The classic "Diary of a Country Priest" has a tragic ending, and it is tragedy that often moves people. Obviously, director Schrader did not achieve the essence of Bresson, and even lost the angry youth of "Taxi Driver", and has already walked a politically correct road. 6...

    Feel surprisingly kind of cozy to see a film dragging me back to the 70s, with a touch of contemporary sense. It feels like every shot is clean and carries a narrative message that very few movies can do these days do...

    How to believe in modern grace without miracles

    Chinese young people returning home during the Spring Festival need to accept the "year taste cross-examination" of the seven aunts and eight aunts who urged marriage and gave birth. The radical environmentalist Michael in "First Reformed Church" resisted reproduction and reproduction more...

    God is not always in the garden, he is also in the hilltop market and temple

    It's really uncomfortable. The music is too horrible and the tone is too gloomy. The director is a person who is good at expressing emotions with images. Maybe there is something awesome, but I don’t like it personally, full of negative energy...

    Why do you want to live like this? Isn't sunshine a...

First Reformed quotes

  • Reverend Ernst Toller: Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world.

  • Reverend Ernst Toller: Courage is the solution to despair, reason provides no answers. I can't know what the future will bring; we have to choose despite uncertainty. Wisdom is holding two contradictory truths in our mind, simultaneously, Hope and despair. A life without despair is a life without hope. Holding these two ideas in our head is life itself.
