      Comment on Spring Summer Autumn Winter and Another Spring

      "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Another Spring," tells the story of an old monk and a young monk in a temple floating on water. In the film, the old monk and the young monk respectively represent orthodox Buddhist thought and the desire for human nature. With the change of time, different desires and Buddhism have produced a fierce cultural collision. The film heralds the change of time through the changes of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and uses four...

      The title is far better than the movie, the scenery is far better than the plot

      The ups and downs of the state of mind are difficult to express convincingly with words and images. No matter which way someone does it, this person can become a master. Kim Ki-duk undoubtedly had this ambition, but unfortunately the film didn't work out.
        It is a classic case that practitioners under the blue lamp and ancient Buddha in the ancient temple resolve the demonic obstacles of hatred, evil, desire and sin. Appreciating the Buddhadharma in the midst of the demonic obstacles, and...

      Spring is gone, spring is coming again

      9 points, the concept is exquisite, you must calm down and look at it, otherwise you will think that it is a Buddhist propaganda film that reveals a kind of Buddhist reincarnation. Desires give birth to possessiveness. When you are young, you experience worldly ups and downs and illusions create a kind of anger. Then in middle age, the three desires are reconciled into one Buddha nature. Desire to kill; summer is exuberant, a mass of lustful lust is burning; autumn is cool, knowing the...

      life is a musical thing

      Seasons can be reincarnated, can life be reincarnated? Often confused about this. If you think about it carefully, it is too contempt for natural creatures and too much value for human life. If you find out, a tree is also dying, it also goes through the four seasons of tree life, it also blooms and bears leaves and leaves to hibernate. Therefore, it is always said that flowers have a re-opening day, and people are no longer young, and they do not think about life from the...

      Zen Color and Image Expression

      "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Another Spring" The language was sparse and early warning. After reading it, I was rushed by anger...

      The film has a distinctly philosophical overtone, or Zen. The theme I want to talk about is Zen meditation. From when I was a child, I was carefree and didn’t know good and evil, until I carried the big stone in my heart, I practiced Zen all the way, carried the weight, and finally got rid of the stone. This is the process...

      Kim Ki-duk! The god of art! So this movie is talking about: 1. People are inherently evil at the beginning; 2. Killing when they are young, and killing in middle-age; 3. When you abandon children, you will also be abandoned by life; 4. The importance of maternal love in human growth (I think this is It is implicitly to be expressed, the two children have no motherly love and lack of humanity since childhood, which is similar to the theme expressed by Saint Memorial). Kim Ki-deok's movie charm:...

    Movie plot

    The story is divided into five parts according to seasons: Spring-the old monk and the child monk live in the solitary temple. The old monk went out to buy, the child monk playfully tied the stone to the little fish and the snake, and slept on the side. Seeing his deeds, the old monk drew a gourd and tied the stone to him, educating him to look at everything around him with the same mood. Summer-The child monk has grown into a young...

    Evaluation action

    The film is a very beautiful and simple film. The simplicity of the work highlights the profound and superb artistic sense. Director Ki-duk Kim not only isolates the core of human nature, but also amazingly understands the scope of human experience. ( "New York Times" review  )
    The film is a work like a gem. The film richly described the themes of silence and violence, divine love and common love, wisdom and indifference, and it was...

    • Old Monk: Lust awakens the desire to possess. And that awakens the intent to murder.

    • Old Monk: Didn't you know beforehand how the world of men is? Sometimes we have to let go of the things we like. What you like, others will also like."
