      Humanity Interpretation of Instinctive Responses

      After watching the instinctive reaction, what I remember most clearly is the episode in which the anthropologist Dr. Powell coerced the young Corsio to answer what he had lost under this coercion. On the first piece of paper, a frightened Corsio wrote down the control, but Powell ripped it away. So he wrote about freedom again, but it was still recognized by Powell. At the moment of life and death, he wrote fantasy, which was recognized by Powell and relieved the threat to his life....

      really want to collect

      I have been looking for the resources of this film, but there are almost no downloadable resources, let alone good resources. I really hope someone can give me some pointers on how to find his resources. It seems that DVDs are also hard to find. When I was in junior high school, I had an appointment to watch it. It was the first movie that shook my heart. Although I have seen many movies that explored the depths of human nature before, after watching it, I really understood that we really need...

      Find the lost myself

      After watching it, think about yourself, really powerless. I have been in college for two years. Gradually, my mind is full of homework, credits, attendance, and rights. I am running around for the so-called future. I have no time to worry about whether I am tired or exhausted. Eye circles rushed to class, and returned to the dormitory full of illness and fatigue. I don't even know what I need. Scholarships, awards, titles, is it really what I want? After watching the film, I once again...

      Thoughts and Memo

      The expression in this film is extremely valuable. It seems that seeing the shadow of "Shawshank's Redemption", the human nature is imprisoned by the game I set up, calling on people not to be kidnapped by themselves. All the pain comes from your corruption control. While the way of living of animals is only to satisfy their physiology, human ambitions far exceed these. Therefore, the horror scenes created in this film are all evil deeds of human beings. Why not liberate yourself, let go of...

      Who is the real psychiatrist and who is the real murderer. Anthony Hopkins' masterpiece, perhaps the interpretation of Hannibal's image is so successful that most people don't know this film, but in my opinion this film has become a kind of memorial, Anthony brought this film with him told us that we have lost too much. If I could, I would give this movie ten stars, not only for the acting, but also for the depth, which transcends the limitations of human...

      Advantages: Realistically show the strengths and weaknesses of human beings, and try to awaken the arrogant control of human beings. Try to make the general audience accept people. What people need more is to face their own kindness and to think with inner peace: Maybe we should think about the real meaning There may be very few mental patients. Even if they are mental patients, most of the kindness in their hearts will shine when they are treated with kindness. Look at how moving and hard the...
