Towards the end of the film, Auguste performed his old tricks as a priest in disguise and went to a poor family to deceive him. After he succeeded, he was about to go away, but was retained by the polio-daughter daughter. The conversation between the devout girl and the false priest successfully earned me tears. Taking the opportunity of the Shanghai Film Festival to step into the cinema again after more than half a year, and seeing Fellini's 1955 work "The Liar", I was deeply moved by the pure faith in the cold world. At the beginning of the movie, Auguste and two accomplices acted as clergymen to cheat at a farmhouse. One of the two accomplices was Robert, who was handsome and handsome; the other was Picasso, who claimed to have an "angel-like face." , It is easy to win the trust of strangers. The three people often cheat together. In a later paragraph, they pretend to be government officials and go to a slum on the outskirts of the city to defraud the first payment under the pretext of issuing a welfare housing contract. Here, the poor are the fixed targets of deception: they are simple, credulous, and not deeply involved in the world, they are easy to obey the so-called authority (whether they are in charge of the heavens or the world), and they are also easily tempted by the cheapness of falling pie in the sky. . If the liar is also a profession, then the August group is undoubtedly outstanding and dedicated, the liar has penetrated their bones. In a scene, three people drive to a gas station in a luxury car that Robert got from an elderly mistress. Without a plan in advance, Robert used his seemingly noble leather bag to defraud him of 10,000 yuan from an old gas worker. Then at another gas station, Auguste copied the trick on a teenager. For the disposal of stolen money, the three people adopted different attitudes. August and Robert would spend the money at the banquet places like the wealthy above, while Picasso had his own family in the city. His beautiful wife and lovely daughter were waiting for him at home. He loved them and gave the money. It's all spent on them. One night, three people wandered on the empty streets of Rome after drunk. Auguste taught Picasso as a person who came by: You can’t be like me. A liar should not be tied by his family. Robert and I are free. Yes, and you should find a decent job and return to your family. Afterwards, August and Robert left, and Picasso looked at the empty street in a daze. Finally, he threw away the coat he had deceived and chose to go home. Halfway through the movie, we discovered that Auguste was not alone as he said. He ran into his daughter who was going to school on the street. Since then, a look of hesitation has often appeared on his face. The daughter constitutes August's bondage. August and his daughter met for dinner. He heard that her daughter was planning to find a Weibo job with a salary. He found it unacceptable. The daughter said, "But Dad, many people live like that." But for August, this was not an option. He promised to sponsor his daughter 300,000 yuan to help her continue her studies. Unexpectedly, he was recognized in the theater by someone who had defrauded him before and was taken away by the police in front of his daughter. After he was released from prison, August found that Robert had gone to Milan and caught up with another group of people, so the touching scene mentioned at the beginning took place. August, posing as a priest, out of compassion, agreed to the disabled girl's request to see him. She reminded him of his daughter, and he felt sorry for her physical disability. But unexpectedly, the girl confessed that her heart was safe and happy. She believed that her experience was the will of God, and she accepted this arrangement safely. Even, she is grateful that she doesn't have to be like her sister, who has to work on the ground at five o'clock every day. Compared to her sister, she feels like a queen. Auguste was undoubtedly moved by the girl. Although he lied to the money, in the face of the girl's pure emotions, he was defeated-selfishness lost to purity, greed lost to piety. Seeing this, I think Auguste will keep the money. Sure enough, on the way back, he told his companion that he hadn't taken the money, and gave a passionate speech, half a condemnation, half a confession. However, I was about to fall into the touch for the second time, but Fellini gave me a heavy blow: my accomplices found hidden money on him. In order to help his daughter, Auguste broke the rules and staged a deception. Deceived. Fellini told me, who was obsessed with fantasy, what reality is. In the end, August was severely injured after being chased by his accomplices. He was lying alone in the wilderness, struggling to crawl towards the road, and finally exhausted. Before he died, looking at the back of a family's journey, I wonder if he understood the truth: "Dad, many people live like that."
