Even at the end, the movie has completely entered the realm of a stream of consciousness, which is the stage that can be ended at any time. Of course, this does not prevent it from becoming a relatively in-depth movie recently. In fact, the characteristic of all "deep movies" is that the picture at this time may become the last shot at any time.
First of all, in the movie, at a certain moment in the middle, at the moment when I was about to go to the toilet, in the magic time of the old man, "Maitreya Buddha" appeared! ! ! I slammed it, and suddenly I had no urge to urinate. It was the real Maitreya Buddha, or golden! ! ! I have to admire director Terry's cultural literacy. Of course, these are not the key points. In fact, the "big police officer" that appeared in the second half is quite ironic.
This kind of film, I think we can see many things from many parts, such as the impact of the market economy on modern society, some people are sticking to our traditions, but those "flowery worlds" do have reasons for their existence," Existence is reasonable" is indeed the case.
The devil represents people's concept of money. He said to the monks who practiced: You should go shopping, you should enjoy life. It is the embodiment of this awareness. In fact, the theme of many movies is the struggle between old ideas and new ideas, and most of these movies end with a slight victory in the market economy.
Because everything has its rules.
In the end, the devil did not give the old man his daughter, because she was also free and not controlled by anything. Not her bet. In our modern society, why don't many parents take their children as bets?
Learning piano, painting, mathematics, and Chinese, they can't wait to let their children learn everything they have heard recently. They just want one day when their children can become talents in a certain area! Isn't this a bet?
The market economy is free, and people are also free, so long live freedom!
