The feelings of the Merchant of Venice

When someone said to Sherlock that even if Antonio didn't pay back, you wouldn't cut his flesh, would you? What impressed me most about Sherlock's answer was this passage: "Do Jews have no eyes? Do Jews have no hands? No organs, no height? No senses, feelings, and passions? Don't eat the same food? Nope Stabbed by the same weapon? Won't be hit by the same disease? Won't be cured by the same method? Don't feel the heat and cold like the Christians? You scratch us, we won't bleed? You scratch us, we won't Laugh? You poison us, we won't die? If we are like you in other respects, we will be like you in this respect. The sins you teach us, we will also practice." Sherlock replied with a long rhetorical question. Prove that Jews and Christians are the same. However, the treatment is different. This triggered the resentment that Sherlock had endured for a long time in his heart. to eventually explode.
Where is Sherlock when we are rejoicing at the happy ending? How does he feel? No one cares about us! Therefore, this despised nation will suffer the disaster of extinction in the future.
And today's Israel seems to be completing the punishment for some countries that it once did not complete to Antonio.

    All that glitter are not gold, a new angle to interpret Shakespeare's classics~ Although I haven't read the original and other versions, this film is really good. The actors are strong~ Why does the Jewish businessman played by AlPacino win the sympathy of JeremyIrons or JoFiennes so-called high-class Christians But it disgusts me and the heroine needs to be improved. It's both classic and modern~
