After watching the movie, I learned some vocabulary with the help of Baidu: 1. The surnames and first names of several characters in the film (Corso, St. Martin, the twin old man Ceniza, the heroine); 2. A few details I noticed: on the cover 666 of the pentagram, Balken elevator and library; 3. A few words that come to my mind: demon, Lucifer, seal.
My habit of watching movies is not to think while watching, but to follow the director as much as possible without adding my own subjective factors (mainly because I am afraid of going astray, and secondly, my mind is not so fast). Looking back, the whole film is reminiscent, that is to say, watch it with your eyes, and watch it with your heart (in fact, most of the films have forgotten their heart after they have seen it with their eyes).
This is how I understand the story: First of all, I don't know how Satan works, whether he needs to use the human body (such as reincarnation) or choose a suitable apostle. Anyway, in this film, he chose Corso, which It was the last thing I realized (not necessarily awakening or comprehension, crooked comprehension is also comprehension), compared to Balken's unscrupulous and vicious, Corso has skills. At the beginning of the film, when Corso went to collect the book, he First, he overestimated the value of other books to gain the trust of sellers, and then took away the most valuable books at extremely low prices. In my impression, Satan is also like this. It is to obtain the most valuable thing in a person - the soul. What Corso encountered in the film should be the hardships he must go through, making him "sublime" step by step (sublimation and degeneration are also similar). The nine illustrations in the book are completed by LCF, and each of them should correspond to the film (in the process of watching, I only found four or five), the heroine can correspond to the woman riding on the monster and the twin old man A devil with a bow in a cloud.
Compared to Corso and other people who try to pass through the ninth gate, such as Balkan and the widow, I don't think everyone can go through the ninth gate to reach the blissful world. I don't know the meaning of "Nine Doors". If Satan's world is divided into nine layers, most people can only suffer in the outer layers after selling their souls. Only those chosen by Satan can overcome all difficulties and come to his place. around.
