The film won eight awards at the 55th Academy Awards in 1983: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Costume Design, and Best Art Direction. 300,000 people. Gandhi was a Brahmin noble in India, studied law in London and became a lawyer, but suffered discrimination against people of color in South Africa in French, so he stood up and organized a non-violent non-cooperation movement and won. Later, he returned to India, continued to promote it, and won the independence of India from Britain. "People are brave only if they have faith", "We will be attacked, and through the pain we endure, they will see their injustice, and they are equally lethal, but we must not lose. They can torture me and interrupt my Bone, even killed me, but they got a corpse, not my submission." "If we riot, if we fight back, we become saboteurs, they become lawful; if we bear the attack, they are Destroyer, God and the law are on our side." "Non-violence is the use of the power of the whole soul against the tyrant, a mighty weapon, far more powerful than war or insurrection. Only non-violence can overcome violence."
Non-violence is Gandhi's core weapon. Through non-violent and peaceful methods, Gandhi occupied the commanding heights morally, and then aroused the sympathy, support and follow-up of a wide range of vulnerable people, and the team became larger and larger and spread to the whole country.
The law does not blame the public, and no matter how powerful the colonial rule is, it is afraid that the whole country will rebel. Eventually Britain agreed to India's autonomy. Gandhi had extraordinary faith and perseverance. Churchill called Gandhi a "half-naked Indian ascetic". For example, he often went on hunger strikes to show his uncooperativeness. He went on a hunger strike 17 times in his life, and the longest one did not eat for 21 days until he met his own requirements. and,
In Hinduism, "If you want to get close to God, you need to throw away property and give up lust." Gandhi and his wife got married at the age of 13 and had four children. From the age of 37, Gandhi abstained from sex, (sometimes even sharing a bed with several naked women) And sleep, in order to exercise their own concentration, think of Fahai in the green snake and take Xiaoqing to practice concentration). Gandhi became India's "Mahatma" "Babu". After the British lifted the colonial rule, India was plunged into an uncontrollable civil war. The Hindu-dominated area was established as India, and the Muslim-dominated area was established as Pakistan. The religious beliefs were different, and the believers were fighting each other, which made Gandhi feel sad and powerless, and could only do it again. Going on a hunger strike, hoping to use his own suffering to turn the hatred of all living beings away, he was shot to death by a fanatical heretic. After Gandhi was shot and fell to the ground, he made a request that he be cremated within 24 hours. For the murderer who shot himself, Gandhi said, "Please forgive this poor man!" On the same day, Gandhi died after being assassinated at the age of 79. The actor's acting skills really exploded, creating the image of Gandhi's huge inner strength, unpretentious, transparent, sharp, and thoughtful. The film is very exciting, but the historical and cultural background may be different, and I can't resonate with Gandhi's thoughts. It is said that during World War II, Gandhi wrote to Hitler and the Allies, persuading Hitler to put down the butcher’s knife and persuade the Allies not to use violence to suppress violence. He also persuaded China to fight Japan in a "non-violent" way:
"If the Chinese have my idea of non-violence," he said, "then there is no need to have the latest destruction apparatus like the Japanese, the Chinese can tell the Japanese: 'Come with your destruction apparatus, we are going to take 200 million people will come against you, but the remaining 200 million people will never give in.' If the Chinese did this, the Japanese would become China's slaves."
During World War II, Gandhi also persuaded the Jews not to resist Hitler. Gandhi's proposal was opposed by the Jews.
