9.5 It's too esoteric to understand. The picture is so beautiful, even if it is a movie that praises the devil, there is an elegant temperament everywhere. The final hymn of the devil (devil's carnival) seems to tell us a truth, if the girl remains pure (nun, nun), mankind will perish. Sex is the primitive desire of men and women, men’s endless possession of the beauty of women (the beauty of young girls, the beauty of the elder sister), women’s desire for eternal youth, these are the desires of the devil, but it is the desire of the devil that multiplies life. For example, at the end of the devil’s carnival, the young and beautiful mother who laughed like an angel with her baby, and the beautiful woman who held the lamb lightly. The lamb has a specific image in Western culture. I learned from An Zhe’s "Crying Prairie" , Sheep refers to Jesus, because Jesus’ father raised sheep, and the sheep is the child of Jesus’ father, so they are also the brothers of Jesus. But like Jesus, sheep are often sacrifices and are animals that bear sins for mankind. Jesus was nailed to the cross and bore all the sins for mankind, allowing God to forgive mankind's ignorance. There is a shocking scene in "Crying Prairie", that is, many sheep are hung on the tree, soaked in flesh and blood. In Bresson’s Bassat, the donkey Bassatt died in the middle of the flock. This has to make people guess the director's intentions, perhaps only in this way is the most vivid and vivid, perhaps it is also an over-interpretation.
Back to the topic, in the devil's carnival, the lyrics sang "Don't reveal your secret". This secret is undoubtedly the truth. You see, those religions require men and women to remain pure, to be nuns, nuns and monks, and abstinence. If everyone does this, who will reproduce the next generation. The hymn of this devil is a bold and merciless mockery of these religious hypocritical teachings that do not conform to the laws of nature. But he can't say too thoroughly, it will be severely resisted by religious believers and the masses of people, protests and trials, such as tying Valerie to a cross and burning it on fire in the movie.
I wanted to make a brief comment, but I typed so many words all at once. I don't know if I understand it right or not, anyway, I still don't fully understand it. I am confused in many places, and I need to read it twice to check more information.
When I didn't enter the door of movies before, I tried to see the so-called "high IQ movies" on the Internet, such as "Shutter Island", "Shards of Memory", "Terror Cruise" and so on. Now when I enter the door, I know that there are far more esoteric, destructive and artistic works than this kind of film.
