Seeing "City of God", the

reason why there is a city of God is
because conscience cannot guarantee order, and
the significance of ruling lies in the reward of blood.

The emergence of religion can calm people's omnipotent desires.
How far is education from religion?
When you see the child learn the evil side.

The first time he was forced to kill, he let the child kill the big cub. In the
end, he fell in a pool of blood, and the
hero's Avenger also fell in a pool of blood.

2010-3-16, 11:48:37, Zhusi watched it last night, and made up notes the next day.

Explanation: At the beginning of the movie "City of God", gangsters have to use guns to kill a chicken. In this slum, children can have guns. I noticed such a detail. Among them, there was a child who participated in the gangsters just to prove that he was a man. When the gangster leader Xiaobawang asked him to kill people, he chose to shoot the big one and the other one. I think this is a hint? In addition to children being more innocent and pitiful, there is also a kind of big one that is beyond salvation, and a small one has hope.
At this time, I recalled the name of the movie "City of God", and I realized it had a bit of flavor. This is a slum without God. Everyone was abandoned, so they fought with swords and guns. And those involved in drug trafficking, robbery, and murder are all children. Because of the lack of a corresponding "education" environment, children are instinctively infected by evil, and "we are tainted with silk." So I was thinking, in such an environment, religion is more likely to appear before education, and it has the meaning of education and peace. Is it possible to understand religion and this film in this way?

    The city of God, a place that scares me. —— 2013.11.01: Revisited at the China Film Archive. Seeing the beating white light projected on the big screen, I gradually began to think, how can I express my strong feelings about this movie? The language of the shots, character performances, screen editing, and soundtracks are truly outstanding and outstanding, especially with an astonishing, complex and trivial shot material. I really want to know how the director's edit was conceived and designed so that they were so naturally connected? so amazing!
