Shocked! The torture of humanity!

If the original English name of "The Crucible" is literally translated as "Severe Test", it seems more in line with the plot and film style. The current translation of the name "Passion Years" is really easy to think of nostalgic inspirational films.

I have seen the drama "The Witch of Salem", which is based on the original American book by Arthur Miller, directed by Wang Xiaoying and starring Zhang Qiuge, and it was very shocking. This movie is also adapted from Arthur Miller's "The Witch of Salem", the movie is more shocking than the drama. I started watching at ten o'clock in the evening and saw that it was over at zero, and then I couldn't fall asleep at all. It's really rare to see movies that shock my soul.

When you are in an era where black and white are reversed, and when you need to confess to evil without your conscience, do you really have the courage to use your life to defend your personality? Do you really have the courage not to sell your soul to the dark? The history of mankind will always go through the dark night, but there are always so many "fools" who use the brilliance of human nature to lead people out of the darkness.

    ...maybe I'm thinking too much

    There are no major changes in the base of the original work, but it is faithfully presented. Although it lacks the immersive shock of the stage play, it can still make you fall into deep depression and pain in the process of watching the movie. Arthur is really amazing. The layout of the first half can actually be omitted. Daniel did not try too hard to interpret the role very well, and Reid personally felt very good.
