Humans always need some artists to think and express like philosophers

Does art (movie is one of art) entertain the public or expose reality? This in itself is the extreme of the two divisions of art, and it is impossible to reconcile it. However, because ideological discourse is too tenacious, only great artists can touch a little reality. Lu Xun wrote Ah Q, but the real Ah Q would not read Lu Xun’s works. Human beings always need some artists to think and express like philosophers. Real artists are reflecting or criticizing, revealing the human nature of society and expressing their personal opinions. There are always some people who are promoting progress and exploring the future of mankind. I can’t let everyone watch "Huanzhu Gege" and "Pancake Man", let the artists shoot "Huanzhugege" and "Pancake Man".

Sullivan's Travels quotes

  • Miz Zeffie: He seems very strong. Did you notice his torso?

    Ursula: I noticed that you noticed it.

    Miz Zeffie: Don't be vindictive, dear. Some people are just naturally more sensitive to some things in life than some people. Some are blind to beauty, while others... Even as a little girl you were more the acid type, dear, while I, if you remember...

    Ursula: I remember better than you do.

    Miz Zeffie: Well forget it. And furthermore I have never done anything that I was ashamed of, Ursula.

    Ursula: Neither have I.

    Miz Zeffie: Yes, dear, but nobody ever asked you to.

  • John L. Sullivan: But nothing is going to stop me. I'm going to find out how it feels to be in trouble. Without friends, without credit, without checkbook, without name. Alone.

    The Girl: And I'll go with you.

    John L. Sullivan: How can I be alone if you're with me?
