Can religion bring people freedom?

(Spoiler) Many religious beliefs are meant to liberate people, but in the eyes of others, religion is the source of oppression. There are also many examples where different believers refer to each other as oppressors and consider themselves liberators. In fact, it is not limited to religion, but also among different ethnic groups. These are all political activities that involve people's minds and bodies at the same time. "Jimmy 's Hall " (

"Jimmy's Ballroom": Pain and Happiness Walk Together

The male protagonist's name is Jimmy. When he returned to the hometown he had missed for a long time, it was already ten years later. Great changes have taken place in the place that was once familiar here: some friends get married, some have children, and dear mothers. He is old and the old ballroom is in the past. What makes him most painful is that his...

The silent leftist submerged in singing and dancing

The young people in the small town are riding bicycles and chasing the jeep police car that drove Jimmy away, creating an emotional farewell scene. And this is what we often see in Ken Rock’s leftist movies, "Looking for Cantona", "Wind Blowing Wheat Wave", "A Piece of Angel", "Free World", "Kiss of Love" ……Perhaps framed by the declining facts of leftist politics in 1930 shown in the film, this kind of ignition is far less refreshing than in the past, and in the previous "Dance Hall" time, the...

Square dance should introduce this kind of dance

The dance that was popular in Britain in those years was very light and easy to learn. Thinking of "Titanic", the poor boys Jack and Ruth danced this kind of dance, right? The rich and celebrities dance ballroom dancing.

I think of the popular "right right right go go go" (rabbit dance) more than ten years ago. In fact, the rabbit dance is also very lively and very happy. I think square dance should also return to this kind, and the brisk dance introduced in this film is not so noisy....

It has nothing to do with faith

Whether it is Christ or communism, the ultimate goal is for the happiness of mankind and the realization of true freedom and equality. God loves each of us. The extreme Christians in the film continue to persecute Galton, the communist who pursues equality and freedom of mankind. What kind of behavior is this? Their belief has become a cancer that endangers this society, showing them Extreme, stupidity and fear.
    This has nothing to do with the question of belief. Do different beliefs...

Relying on the stories in the historical background, the Communist Party is quite literary. Lao Yu recommends watching "The Wind Blows the Wheat Waves" as a prequel. Heard this is Ken Lodge's last feature film?...

266 Words that do not know the history of Northern Ireland do not resonate

S'inscrivant dans la continuité de Le vent se lève, JH se contente d'1 narration sans ambages couplée à 1 verdure ondoyante de la campagne irlandaise. Un Ken Loach moins convaincant dans son affinité avec le personnage exaspère ainsi la platitude de ce...

Unexpectedly not much political content. Although it is a leader of the Communist Party, it focuses more on the realization and elaboration of freedom. Free thought, free will, free value orientation. "Work for needs, not for greed. Don't work like a dog, but live and celebrate. As a free man, dance and sing", communism here is not a revolution, not a lofty ideal, but more It is humanistic...
