How to make history remember

Serenity 2022-04-23 07:01:27

A question that has been thinking a lot recently is: how to make history remember. So I saw this movie, but Gandhi is not just a person who can make history remember, but a person who changes history.
Gandhi's life is full of legends. He went on hunger strike 18 times, was arrested and imprisoned 15 times, and was eventually shot and killed by religious extremists. So even a three-hour movie can only tell Gandhi's great deeds in brief segments. The reason why he became a great man was because he did things that ordinary people wanted to do but couldn't do:
In terms of thought: Gandhi was born in a Vaishya caste family in India. , traveled far and wide, went to London to study, and studied law at University College London. After returning to China, he engaged in a legal career. Although it was not successful, he was considered a high-class person who had no worries about food and clothing in the strict Indian country. In the end, he gave up a superior life for the sake of national freedom.
In terms of life: After he began to pursue liberalism and ran for national independence, he persisted in the virtue of diligence and thrift for decades, and was loved by all walks of life in India.
Spiritual aspect: In order to awaken the independent spirit of the Indian people, the people were moved by hunger strikes and walking dozens of kilometers to make salt, and they deeply realized that only their unity can win the victory.

    The smooth and natural editing, unpretentious narrative, sporadic soundtrack, and multiple seamless black-and-white news footage give the film a near-documentary realism. Ben Kingsley's performance is like Gandhi's reincarnation. No wonder it won an Oscar in one fell swoop. Actor. The film maintains an objective position as much as possible, and does not portray Gandhi as a high-profile figure. It lifts the weight lightly, allowing Gandhi's lofty thoughts to quietly flow into the hearts of the audience. (9.0/10)

    Even considering the myriad of political correctness in this film, it's an excellent film. Ben Kingsley is a superb actor

Gandhi quotes

  • Conductor: [stopping Gandhi on the train in South Africa] What are you doing in here, coolie?

    Gandhi: I reserved this car. I have a ticket.

    Conductor: How did you get hold of it?

    Gandhi: I sent for it by post. I am an attorney.

    European Passenger: An attorney! There are no colored attorneys in South Africa - move your black ass into third class where it belongs!

    Porter: I'll take your luggage, sir...

    Gandhi: No, wait.

    [he takes out his card and shows it]

    Gandhi: You see? 'Mohandas K. Gandhi, Attorney at Law.' I am on my way to Pretoria to conduct a case...

    European Passenger: Didn't you hear me? There are no colored attorneys in South Africa!

    Gandhi: Sir, I was called to the bar in London, and enrolled in the High Court of Chancery. I am therefore an attorney. And since I am, in your eyes, 'colored,' I think we can deduce that there is at least one colored attorney in South Africa.

  • Kasturba Gandhi: Sora was sent to tell me I must rake and cover the latrine.

    Gandhi: Everyone takes his turn.

    Kasturba Gandhi: It is the work of untouchables!

    Gandhi: In this place, no work is beneath us.

    Kasturba Gandhi: I am your wife!

    Gandhi: [coldly] All the more reason.
