William Golding's Theory of Human Nature is Evil

"Lord of the Flies" is the masterpiece of Nobel Prize winner William Golding. It explores the serious theme of human evil through the innocence of children. Because I was too lazy to read the original book, I first watched the adapted movie. In the novel, Piggy fell to his death from a cliff in a chaotic battle. In this movie, it was changed to be directly killed by a boulder dropped by his companion, which is even more cruel. "Lord of the Flies" is the Lord of the Flies. It is regarded as the...

Some thoughts after Lord of the Flies...

The whole film tells the story of a whole group of children, so if we think about it, if there is an adult among them, what will happen? It's very simple, children will have regular work and rest under the leadership of adults, and everyone will be assigned a reasonable task: build camps, hunt, gather fruit, maintain bonfires for help, and work together to create a better tomorrow...
       It is also a leadership style. The management of the company is also an arbitrary business model,...

A line of separation

The savage genes are just beautifully decorated in our cells

The author of the original work has experienced World War II. From this perspective, assume that the island is a battlefield. It is a civilized society. The barbaric degradation of the island seems to make sense. There is no system restriction. Talking with fists and snails no longer work. People who died because of civilization survived. People because of barbarism. If so, the island will become more and more barbaric....

Human nature is good, human nature is evil?

This film made me see the weakness of human nature, and the evil in human nature, and showed a story of human indolence through a group of children who were supposed to be the most innocent.
The stories in the movie terrified me, and made me sigh even more. The civilization, democracy and rationality that human beings have pursued after thousands of years of struggle and games have become so vulnerable in the face of primitive desire and barbarism. The evil nature makes everything go back...

The nature of flies

Because of the plane crash, a group of children from the choir were left on an isolated island. From sincere cooperation to group division, gradually escalating to violent competition for life resources and production tools, until ignoring life and killing companions. And the perpetrators of the behavior are all children, this is the cruelest place.

In fact, seeing this movie, I have to mention the American drama "Lost" in recent years in the United States, plane crashes,...

Alas... I really can't help comparing, this kind of adaptation is far less faithful to the original, and in the end it actually played the Vietnam War movie...

I haven't read the original so can't compare. However, as a movie about survival on a desert island, there are too many key details that have not been explained, and the sense of hierarchy is relatively poor. In the second half, the contradictions intensified, and it finally looked good, but unfortunately the ending was too...

Piggy's image is a bit rubbish, and the presence of an adult is not ideal. The rest is trying to be faithful to the...

In the end only Ralph survived. Others died either physically or humanly, leaving some beasts without educational constraints. The unconsciousness of the beast is to choose to stand in line, paint the same color on the skin, dance and sing on the beach, and desire for the...
