Religion originates from human cognition of nature. Of course, "nature" also includes human beings, whether it is monotheistic or polytheistic, whether it is fetish or worshipping, whether it is used to rule the actions and actions of the people. Thought is still used to adjust and restrain others or one's own behavior. Religion is a product that occurs within human society. We don’t know if there is really a higher level of existence, and we have no way of knowing the higher level of information transmitted to humans. No matter how much a religion develops, no matter how cumbersome doctrines, no matter how complicated the management system, no matter how long the historical development process, can not conceal the facts of the human nature of religion. Therefore, both Liang Shanpo’s “walking for the sky” and John Doe's (hereinafter referred to as D)’s admonition are derived from his own reflection of social phenomena. The so-called God’s will cannot reasonably explain and become the exaggerated behavior of the evangelist. Reasons for exoneration. Obviously Somerset (hereinafter referred to as S) saw this contradiction and he asked D: "If, as you said, you were chosen by God, if you were forced, I wonder why you can still enjoy it so much. Enjoying the pleasure of torturing others is contrary to the spirit of martyrdom, isn't it?" D was silent for two seconds, comparing his behavior to Mills (hereafter referred to as M) interrogating himself in the interrogation room (involving others in the topic is In order to avoid the means of confronting the problem directly) and admit that you have selfish desires. Through the analysis of this paragraph, we know that the "Seven Deadly Sins" is just to show us other things under the cloak of religion. As for what it is, I will mention it below.
There is another thing on the surface of the film that needs some pen and ink to explain, that is, D's modus operandi, which is also a question worthy of discussion. We thought that D had committed all kinds of crimes of killing people with perverted methods, but that was not the case. The first victim discovered was a glutton. D used his muzzle against his head and forced him to eat food for twelve consecutive hours. This resulted in acute gastric dilation, rupture of the inner wall of the duodenum, and the appearance of rectus muscles and transverse colon. Hematoma, which caused massive internal bleeding and death; the second was a lawyer who was forced to cut a pound of meat and died from heavy bleeding; the third was a dying addict, who had maintained his vital signs for a year on D’s antibiotics and other drugs, and had bed sores on his back. A purulent infection appeared in the wounds of his body and his whole body. As long as he “shocked his eyes with a flashlight, he would die of shock”; the fourth direct victim of the “seven deadly sins” is generally believed to be a prostitute who was stabbed to death by a sharp knife placed under the crotch by a prostitute. However, the prostitute did not commit the crime of "lust". She may just perish for economic or other reasons. The real crime of lust is the client. In fact, D wants to punish the client too. Just seeing his performance in the interrogation room Got it; the fifth is the proud man who was disfigured for his food. He was tied to the bed when he died. His face was covered with gauze. It was obviously the wound that D had bandaged for her. He held a sleeping pill bottle in one hand and a phone in the other. D gave her the right to choose; the sixth is the self who committed the crime of jealousy and was shot by M; the seventh is the angry M. The film does not explain the following of M, so I will not mention this for the time being. Looking at the overall situation, D has never killed anyone, at least he has not personally killed anyone. Everyone who commits one of the "seven deadly sins" has been punished to varying degrees. This is also D’s defense lawyer confident that he can get rid of him. The reason, if it were not for D's surrender, the police would not have enough evidence to prove D's crime. So why does D shoot to avoid chasing when he sees S and M find his home? The reason is that he did not complete the "work", thinking that a work that does not show the whole picture cannot serve as an admonishment to the world. However, instead of saying that D is admonishing the world, it is better to say that David Fincher is admonishing the world and ringing the alarm bell through the movie.
I have only done less than one percent of the work on the details of the film. I have committed the crime of "laziness", so please watch the film on your own. The details of the problem will not be analyzed too much.
Secondly, it is the analysis of the theme of the movie. Through the highly detailed performance, the theme of "Seven Deadly Sins" has become clear. David Fincher did not want to inculcate original sin, confession and other Christian ideas, but through the hands of a radical preacher, expose the dark side of the world represented by this chaotic city to the world, making people truly valuable It is not which of the seven deadly sins I have committed, but the question of where I am going to go in the cold world.
The Catholic doctrine states that "according to the views of John Gesian and Pope Gregory I, distinguish the major evils often encountered by the believers". The meaning of "significant" here is that these evil deeds will trigger other crimes. For example, the greed of thieves stems from desire (this sentence comes from Wikipedia). The "seven deadly sins" are not the kind of crimes that need to be tried, punished, and repaid. They are the true desires and dispositions of human beings that may cause evil. They are unavoidable, unchangeable, and can only be restrained. People often misunderstand the "seven deadly sins", which leads to misunderstandings about the film.
So here, I point out my subjective opinions: the main purpose of this film is to expose the dark side of the material society, so that people have a more sober and calm understanding of things, people, themselves, and even the world. As for the solution to all this, please refer to "Fight Club".
In the last part, I will talk about my personal views on several fiercely controversial issues in the film.
1. Is T dead? What is in the box that was delivered by the courier?
Answer: T is not dead. Before S and M entered the police station in D, a woman who answered the phone at the front desk told M: "Your wife is calling again, go buy an answering machine!" At this time, D was already on her back. Enter the police station and come from the head. Explain that D found M's wife after leaving the actress's house and before getting into the taxi. At this time, S and M are busy investigating the "Pride" case. The night before, in the early morning of the same day, M and his wife T were together, while D was committing a crime at the actress's house. D took the initiative to report the case and led out S and M, and then sneaked into M's house. As for why T did not die, there are two reasons: 1. It is D’s principle that he does not kill people directly. From beginning to end, D has never personally killed people; 2. A wild dog that fell dead on the side of the road, D said: "This is not what I killed. It seems very humorous, but it does point, because the wild dog is the same species as the female hunting dog of the M family, which implies the message "I didn't kill your wife". So it can be known that T should have called the police department after D left, but obviously it was not to report the crime, but to look for her husband, because T did not tell the other police what happened, it must be something that only her husband can know. The last time T and S met was on Friday morning. T told him about the pregnancy, and S said the following: "How can I let my child be born in such a world? How can I let him be in such a rotten state? Growing up in an environment! I’m pretty sure that the original decision was right, but there is not a day without regretting it. If you don’t want to keep your child, you should never tell him about your pregnancy. But once you choose to give birth to him, you have to Love this child all the time.” T seemed to move and had the idea of abortion, so we can boldly guess that D cut off T’s abdomen and put the unfinished child in a box, thinking that M knew his wife was pregnant, but unexpectedly M was concealed by his wife and colleagues, which was still an "unexpected surprise" for him. D looked at S and said: "It seems he doesn't know yet!" instead of saying to M: "It seems you don't know yet!" At this time, the pain of losing a son, his wife and colleagues concealing him, himself The incomprehension of his wife and colleagues and other emotions attacked M at the same time, and the film reached its climax at this time. In the end, the angry person did not control his emotions, and a gunshot broke out completely. However, the grief was more than heartbreaking. This is D's punishment for the angry person, and the "work" is finally completed!
2. Will S be the ultimate boss, behind the scenes?
Answer: No. There is one of the ten commandments of reasoning, the detective must never commit a crime by himself. This is the first, and the second is that all the arguments that S is behind the scenes are untenable. I don't want to explain this point one by one. The project is too big, and those who disagree can come down to communicate.
3. The story of "The Seven Deadly Sins" is not complete because M is not dead.
Answer: The number of corpses cannot be used to verify the completion of the "work". Because D's fundamental purpose is not to kill. M may be sentenced to death or not, but the grief is more than heartbreaking, and the angry person has already been punished. Everyone suffers from their own "sin", as if Victor hadn't died completely, and the client was just overwhelmed by fright, and he had achieved D's purpose of admonishing.
If you think "The Seven Deadly Sins" is not as good as you think, then please read it again.
