Just finished watching The Elephant Man, the film is based on real medical records from the Victorian era in England and tells the tragic life of a severely deformed patient who was called "The Elephant Man" because of his deformity in his head. Anthony Hopkins Anthony Hopkins as the doctor who discovered and helped the Elephant Man.

Compassion
was the first time the doctor saw the Elephant Man stand up and turn around, tears quietly overflowing, and compassion spread silently.
When the famous stage actress Mrs. Kent was moved by the Elephant Man, she visited him in the Elephant Man's room, gave the Elephant Man a photo of herself, and kissed the Elephant Man. She is full of compassion and has a bright and warm smile that I have rarely seen in my life. Elephant Man, who has never spoken in the

Bible film, recited the 23rd chapter of the Bible Psalm by heart unexpectedly: Although I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I am not afraid of evil...
I was shocked beyond compare.
The miniature church he made by himself, the bible and the vast starry sky that appeared when he died, make the religious meaning throughout the whole film.
The ignorance brutally raped the humility and kindness. Although the ending of the film is very mainstream and ideal, the reality is often not the case. The film implicitly implies that the Bible is the solution to these pains and ignorance, and the influence of the Bible on European civilization is evident.

Looking at this poem carefully, I didn't feel the shock when I saw the film, and it didn't particularly resonate.
Maybe those who believe in religion will truly appreciate its beauty.

Psalm 23 The

LORD is my shepherd and
I shall not want
him who makes me lie down in green pastures and leads me beside still
waters
he revives my soul and guides me in the paths of righteousness for
his name My name leads me in the way of righteousness Lead me in the way of righteousness Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not be afraid of harm






For you were with me,
your rod and
your rod comforted me
in the presence of my enemies,
you prepared a feast for me ,
you anointed my head with oil, and my
cup overflowed
, my cup overflowed
all my life ,
all my life There will be goodness and
goodness and love will follow me all the days of my
life
I
will have goodness and love follow
me all the days of my life
