How a mortal man can pursue godlike faith

Helen and Christopher made the whole film. I think so many people give four stars because there are too many supporting characters next to them, and the quality is average. Even James McAvoy, who has charming eyes, seems too heavy in front of the two old actors. Can't stand the pressure.

Humans are just human beings after all, and how a mortal person wants to pursue the realm of gods can only approach infinitely, and there is no possibility of becoming gods. When it comes to dying and wandering, all people need is the company of the person they love the most. Ideals can bring people motivation, but they cannot bring people warmth, nostalgia, and life satisfaction.

Besides, if you don't even love the people around you, what ability and mind do you have to love people in the world who have nothing to do with you? Tolstoy was so in love with Sophia and his family that it was so painfully difficult to decide whether to follow his own beliefs or fulfill the promises of a husband and the responsibilities of a father. Vladimir did not understand this, which is why Vladimir did not become the second Tolstoy.

Everything I know, I know only because I love.
Love is the beginning of everything and the end of everything.
