Everyone is the devil for his "gold"

Because Professor Panish wants to write a paper... I chose a modern movie. Thank you for your inspiration. I roughly thought about my thesis. The following is a rough summary. It is also convenient for future generations to refer to.

Everyone has desires. For example, in In the movie. The short-legged dean is sensual, and the handsome guy wants gold. The old man sells baby wine for the communism he believes in, and on the one hand, he can also see that he wants to have a hard cock... ...The
handsome guy killed people because of his own desires, so he was considered the villain in the movie. However, at the end of the movie, the director used the back of the handsome guy with the voice of the old man to say that I am the devil. Yes I want to express that everyone is dazzled by their own desires. They are all a devil.
During the Spanish Civil War, the republic government composed of loyalists and the national army led by Franco conquered each other. Maybe everyone knows that franco is Fascism...what pushed the Spanish people into the fire pit... But according to a documentary about Spanish Civil War recorded by our school many years ago, interviews with elderly people who are still alive in various aspects, the national zone at that time, that is, The franco-ruled area is much happier and healthier than the republic zone. Including a series of communist revolutions done by the republic government later caused great social unrest. The people at that time all fled to the national zone.
To introduce this a little bit is not to prove that fascist Spain is good. It is to say that everyone has their own ideals or desires. In the pursuit of desires, there will be fights and disputes. Just like in a documentary, the anarchist is righteous. It is said that we want to be a unified Spain, we must have faith (communism is atheist), and a traditional Spain (communist invasion is considered foreign Spain); I think that communist is also justified when describing a city defense war. , We want to defeat fascism, we talk about winning this war.
This situation can not help but remind people of Pan’s labyrinth. The nationalist officer with blood in his hands is looking into the distance, and said, my son will grow up. A bright, clean Spain.

    What is a ghost? A tragedy destined to repeat itself? Or momentary pain. It's something that's dead but sometimes seems to be alive, an emotion stuck in time, like a blurry photo, or an insect trapped in amber, the ghost is me.

    Strictly speaking, this is not a horror movie, but it is definitely a human movie~
