Judging from the way the film is expressed, it is very captivating. The actor's acting skills are in place, and the scenes, details, and dialogue are all clearly expressing what it wants to express. The audience is caught in the movie by these. From the puzzlement at the beginning of seeing the medieval-like life of the residents, the common hatred of the child stealing the rearview mirror on the motorcycle of the marquis rent collector, to the disgust at the villagers and the marquis to the son of the marquis who have been exploiting Lazaro. In the end, after Lazaro arrived in the city, he still happily accepted the discrimination and oppression that all ordinary people felt, but he couldn't feel it at all, and still treated everyone with a pure heart. I really want to say: Lazaro, you are so fucking stupid!
Movies are shocking and thought-provoking. What exactly is happiness? Why are the villagers who exploited Lazaro and the son of the marquis still as unfortunate and as miserable as before after more than ten years? Lazzaro, who has always happily spent his life satisfying anyone's request for their own sake, is a "saint"? Are "Saints" really happy?
After waking up from the initial shock, I realized that this was a lousy movie. What the director is trying to express is a view of destiny, some people are God's "chosen people", while others are God's "forsaken people". From this point of view alone, this movie can't give him high marks.
Lazaro is God's chosen people. He came to this world to tell the greedy rich and ignorant and stupid poor with his completely beneficial and incomparably simple character: Your misfortune is not because you are rich or not. Money, not at all because you are oppressed but freedom, but because you are of bad character and are God's people destined to be with the devil. And I, Lazaro, I have always been happy to serve everyone stupidly, without any malice, die once in your malice, God will let me come back to life, and then go to this dirty world to help you, but it turns out, You are not saved, so I went back to heaven.
In this movie, there is no awakening of humanity, no sublimation or degeneration of humanity, everything is already doomed. The "inferior" villagers, whether as tenant farmers or in the city, have always endured poverty with the ugliness of human nature, and the self-righteous marquise, from the disgusting face of giving Lazaro the title of "brother" from the very beginning, to More than ten years later, he invited Lazaro and his entourage to his house in order to save face and "enthusiasm", and the escape after coming to Lazaro and his entourage showed that he was always a pitiful and vain little person. And the stupid Lazaro responded to all changes without change. In the end, he simply looked at the world and died. It seems to be saying: a world can't hold me, I go to heaven, I will give it to you here, you can do it yourself.
