I never thought about this movie before, performance has become a metaphor for the taboos of people's thoughts. Before, most people just treated it as something erotic. It was created and reproduced by director Philip Kaufman into a shocking era. The reflection of tragedy, the quill's portrayal of characters is undoubtedly very full and wonderful, especially Sade, this "talent" who should have been writing in peace, provoked all beings in the era again and again, he is an outlier of the era , but gave endless inspiration to the thinking of the times. The character of Sade is the center of the whole film. He is the only one who is sober in the era. He seems to be writing a book with debauchery, but in fact, intentionally or unintentionally, he is alerting everyone who should resist, overthrow, and obey his own wishes. It's a pity that he was still a victim one by one. His composition is a leader in the presence of the priest. The priest loved Medlin, but he suppressed his lust in the name of the faith of the believers. Sade wanted to release his repression. There were conflicts and quarrels again and again, but the priest chose to disobey in his self-struggle. His own heart, part of his pain lies in witnessing the death of his loved ones and Sade, so alert and profound, and at the same time it indicates the self-seeking of those who are pure in heart but struggling in their hearts. Medellin is Sade's bosom friend. Everyone knows Sade's "talent", but only she knows exactly what Sade wants to express, but she is also a pure and beautiful girl, helping Sade again and again is like redemption again and again, even to Sade " Life extension", with him the neurotic who seems to be a taboo in everyone's eyes, Sade lost his pen, lost his sheets, lost everything in the room, even lost his clothes, all the tools on which he relied on writing were taken away At this time, Thad was like an isolated and helpless soldier, and Medlin was a spiritual escort who sent guns and ammunition by his side, and together they set off waves of thought in this era. The government faction is opposed to THAAD, autocratic dictatorship is destined to have an endless conflict with free thought, and ideological enlightenment often occurs under power politics. Sade is an outlier in this era. People who don't understand him just see him this way. The vacant talent gets into the hole of sexual desire and is ridiculed and accepted by the general public, while the autocratic ruler does not allow such an existence. Sade broke through. The ideological dimension of some people has been changed. For the rulers, this is not a ban, but a threat and challenge to the powerful. It is to ignore the rules and play his own game, so Thad is destined to sacrifice. The last is the excavation of Sade's ego role. He is extremely painful, but he lives with a soul. In those times, the believer was a lamb to be slaughtered, and was sometimes used as a weapon to stifle thoughts. At the end of Sade, even the feces resisted with the soul.

    Shadow 20295: How rich and emotional must be in the heart to be filled with the passion for writing like Sade? ! He is crazy and only needs a quill to write passion; she is also crazy and loves his words; the sad music sounds, the knight in his heart runs, but his cries are not answered; after so much sadness, the priest is also crazy Now, he wants a quill too! Geoffrey Rush did a great job, and Joaquin Phoenix studied.

Quills quotes

  • Coulmier: It's not even a proper novel. It's nothing but an encyclopedia of perversions. Frankly, it even fails as an exercise in craft. The characters are wooden, the diologue is inane. Not to mention the repetition of words like "nipple" and "pikestaff".

    Marquis de Sade: There I was taxed; it's true.

    Coulmier: And such puny scope. Nothing but the worst in man's nature.

    Marquis de Sade: I write of the great, eternal truths that bind together all mankind. The whole world over, we eat, we shit, we fuck, we kill and we die.

    Coulmier: But we also fall in love, we build cities, we compose symphonies, and we endure. Why not put that in your books as well.

  • Abbe du Coulmier: I am not the first man God has asked to shed blood in his name. And I am not of the last.
