Whether a professor or a lunatic, humanity is supreme

The crew is gorgeous and well made. The biographical works of Western films have always been excellent works. This can be regarded as a masterpiece of 19 years. Be more tolerant and give five stars. The professor played by Mel Gibson is a very positive character. He is conscientious to his career and his family, especially his communication with his wife. The wife is an observer, but regardless of the status of women at the time, she stood up and complained for her husband at a critical moment. The doctor played by Sean Penn was imprisoned in a mental prison for mental homicide, two people who had nothing to do with each other (Foreshadowing: the wife tells the murder in the newspaper, leaving a widow with six children, who happens to be the professor's family There are also many children), because the "Oxford Dictionary" has sparked the spark of erudition, the two meet English pairs, people who are proficient in English should be very enjoyable to listen to, I can only watch the hard subtitles. The other line is about forgiveness and redemption. There are plenty of passages about this in the Bible, and it is also reflected in many British and American cultures. A madman is willing to give up all his property and even his life as a penance. What should he do? In addition to asking the widow for forgiveness, teach the widow to read so that he can educate the child well. There is also a scene later in the film. During the court questioning, the widow's eldest daughter was brought to the court and walked out of hatred under the inspiration of her mother. "If it is love, then love it" interprets the highest state of human nature, and the scriptures also say "don't be afraid, just love". What touched me the most was actually the widow. Just imagine: it was like a nightmare, her husband was killed in front of her eyes, leaving her and the children behind, and that demon brazenly asked for forgiveness, what would happen if it were you and me? What the movie will not show is that there must be prayers and meditations during this period, and then there will be the later note. Some people seem to think it is artificial, but in fact this is the value of the European and American elites in the past, and now there are constantly retrospective works. END

  • James Murray: Who's she?

    James Murray: Well... what I know of love is that the sickness often becomes the cure.
