I finally saw this film that occupies the top three of many neighbors lists. I saw it twice. It may cause a certain degree of emotional incoherence, the cry of children, the face of oil workers mixed with blood and oil. When the tongue of fire was soaring into the sky, Dan's human nature was eroded by desire, and the "eye of the prophet", the struggle between gods and sin, and the repentance of demons facing the undead, these were extremely lingering. Facing one's own evil is far less painful for people who are driven by desire, it will only make their dancing in the dark more wild. I have been in a state of trembling and watching movies. The stories about faith and desire exude a primitive stimulating smell. Who is a god, who is a human, whose fate has been tampered with, and whose story will continue again, I just want to do it. Several points to discuss several issues.
1. Is Eli a prophet or a mortal? A large part of the mystery of this film is brought about by this character, and his appearance is also very delicate. It starts with his brother answering Daniel’s inquiry, and then brings his love of religion to really appear in our vision, like It’s like falling from the sky. I don’t think anyone will deny the powerful consciousness control of religion. This also makes Daniel's mind more and more unpredictable. I have been guarding this character in the first half. I have every reason to believe that he will do crazy things. Come. He is like a rebellious young man spoiled by God, playing fate wildly, helping an elderly old woman expel sickness, he is a saint, but when he strangled his father's throat hoarsely, when he yelled, "I am a fake "Prophet", we realized that there are no absolute saints and no absolute evil people in this world. Some people may not accept the mediocrity and secularity of the self in their entire lives. When they look down, I think it is more liberation. Bar.
2. The death of Eli. Due to a shortage of funds, Eli invested in a piece of Grandpa Bandy's land and spent his savings. After being jokingly rejected by Daniel, he fell into his own blood waterfall. To be honest, I don’t like this design very much, because in the first half of the film, the big accident after the opening of the Mary oil well did have a sense of God punishing people who were disrespectful to him. I was in a cold sweat at the time, and I thought Eli would do it. What kind of retaliation, such as burning out the gasoline accumulated in the dirt pit, but none of this happened. On the contrary, the film chose a way of understanding as it should be. In fact, I was discouraged after seeing it. . The final match between Eli and Daniel is very dramatic. In terms of plot, this is a definition and statement of views on the past content. Technically, this scene has an amazing connection with a single plot. For example, Daniel refused to buy Eli’s land and exaggeratedly described how the oil in the ground was sucked up. Daniel also told Eli. His brother was much smarter than him. Paul pointed out the address, got a large sum of money, and drove his own well. Now there are three wells with a daily output of 5,000 barrels of oil. This was an emotional flashpoint for Eli. Adding Zhudan's crazy description, Eli was completely murdered by the crimes in his heart, and his body was the only one who died in the end.
3. Daniel's bottom line. Daniel had several fires in France. 1. H·W was deaf and forced him to drink goat's milk mixed with alcohol. 2. When HW set a fire in his room. 3. After taking H·W back, he was irritated by the businessman in the restaurant. 4. When it is discovered that the younger brother is a fake. When we sum it up, we will find that Daniel's interests are at stake. He is not a hopeless person. He is willing to talk with his fake brother. He can't bear to see mine friends leave orphans.
4. No more hitting. After moving to Little Boston, HW told Dan that the young daughter of the farm, Mary, was often beaten for prayers. After the opening ceremony, Dan said in front of Mary's father: "no more hitting. "It should be a few warm depictions in the film. At that moment, I think Daniel has a soul and always has feelings for HW. He knows that every child should have a childhood full of love, and some of these consciences will be affected later. Temporarily cover. Finally, the flashbacks of HW's childhood and Dan's fun also prove that Daniel's mouth is hard and unrelenting.
5. The final conversation between HW and Daniel. This is a dialogue with almost only one speaker. Through fast-paced cutting, the depiction of the character's attitude and psychological changes is not boring at all. Because of the sufficient foreshadowing of the feelings of the two in the front, the textual feelings are also very impactful. But I think the lines and script design here can be more attentive and make better use of their value to father and son.
When the tongue of fire was soaring into the sky, the roar from ancient times was hidden in a flash.
