    As a specimen of social isolation for more than 20 years since childhood, Casper, who is naturally born, is destined to be an anomaly. His chaos has become a sword of hypocrisy, indifference and selfishness that pierces the camouflage of civilization. Whether it is to gangsters who take pleasure in insulting him, to benevolent nobles who use him to do good, to worship religion with cheap mercy, or to show clever but arrogant science. So in the end he died, it doesn't matter who the murderer is,...

There are many themes about the acquired destruction of human nature, but like Herzog's direct aim at civilization (he doesn't even bother to attribute it to the so-called industrial and material civilization) is indeed bold and precise. The mysticism and love of nature in the film continued his usual style, and I was not surprised that I didn't understand...

    This is a vivid, bizarre, funny, sad film!

    4.5. Influenced by Dreyer's "The Passion of Joan of Arc". The life experiences of Bruno and Kaspar constitute intertextuality. Herzog's concern for this raised the film to another level. Questions about civilization, including beliefs, scientific logic, worldly things, etc. The director's fascination with the natural environment and the use of classical music is an aesthetically advanced...

    Hersuo's most common allegorical model, emphasizing how an acquired innocence is infected by the habits of "civilization", and the coercive and persecution imposed by "civilization" leads to the closure of behaviors and cognitions with wider horizons. , is considered heresy, or even taboo, this knife directly stabs civilization (no matter which civilization) cognitive conservative behavior is undoubtedly bold and radical, so that when AI can surpass humans in the future, it is estimated that...
