This Swedish film is very similar to another Danish-Swedish co-production "Better World", and both involve some similar issues: divorced families, troubled children, school violence and resistance, and so on. This is probably the case in northern Europe. It is icy and snowy, and there are few people. It is inevitable that you will be autistic and withdrawn. But when I watched "A Better World", I didn't quite understand what the final conclusion of the film was? Obviously, Christian's violent behavior is denied in the movie, but is it better to be like Elias' father, Anton, and fully practice Yefuzi's teachings. When someone hits you on the left cheek, or sticks out the right cheek, Let him fight. Amitabha, fortunately, we Chinese people have many respects for Confucius. Although Mr. Er is two, he is not so "two" in this regard. According to the Analects of Confucius, someone asked Teacher Confucius, "How to repay grievance with virtue?" The Master said, "Why repay virtue? Repay grievance with rectitude, and repay virtue with virtue." Unfortunately, today's people have not been able to figure out what 'straightness' is. It is said to be frank and straightforward, not to accompany a smile or to stab a knife. Some people say that it is straightforward, a tooth for a tooth, and an eye for an eye. But no matter what kind of explanation, Mr. Kong didn't teach us to dedicate all our cheeks to those who slap our mouths. Even in "Better World", the practice of slapping people in the face of Anton in Denmark and not fighting back is also denied in another environment. Somewhere in Africa, the bandit boss who verified the sex of the baby by caesarean section on a pregnant woman was treated by Anton after being seriously injured. But when he saw that Anton failed to save the pregnant woman he mutilated in the end, instead of reflecting on his remorse, he mocked and laughed recklessly and triumphantly. In the end, Anton, who repaid his grievances with virtue or abide by his duties as a doctor, couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed the executioner out of the medical camp and handed it over to the victim's family. So, after reading "Better World", I still haven't found any conclusive solution. Perhaps, in the face of bullying, the most ideal outcome is to wait for the demons and ghosts to preside over justice, as in "Let The Right One In". It is found that there are at least two aspects in which demons, ghosts, and gods are stronger than humans: First, they have high abilities, and they can fly over the eaves and wall when they are weak. chivalrous act. It's no wonder that fairies and ghosts are all fantasies of people, and people's fantasies either focus on the idea of evil, or place good yearnings on them, and after all, they are more than reality.
