it when they said that they did not read a book and watch a movie directly because it involved too many religious issues. Generally speaking , Chinese people who don’t know much about Christianity should be It's hard to understand.
The reason why I can understand is completely because I just watched the "Complete Religion Series" produced by the BBC a few months ago,
which described the origin and development of Christianity and what the Bible mentioned in detail from the perspective of biblical archaeology. Several key figures and classic stories,
including the "Dead Sea Scrolls" mentioned in the movie, are also involved.
Regarding Mary Magdalene, there is a chapter in the "Complete Religious Series" that is devoted to her, and from The archeological point of view redefined her, and I also talked about it in detail in Bolg.
After watching the movie, I felt that there were still many doubts that I didn't fully understand, so I just used the vacation to read the book. I have gained a lot~ The
writing style is very general, but it is still clear and clear, and several clues are spread out in parallel.
Compared with movies, the deconstruction of the code in the book is much more detailed, and it is slowly developed with the introduction of the background. It is easy to understand that in the
opposite movie, because of the time, many classic details have been discarded, which is a pity.
The direct consequence is that not only some plots are inexplicable, but also the continuity of the film is greatly reduced.
Because it is a book that is read after the movie is watched first, it is inevitable that the characters in the movie will be involuntarily changed when reading the book. The image is embedded in the book....
Generally speaking, most of the actors are very good:
Tom Hanks will not say, the actor-level figure, will never let me down with
Paul Bettany’s Albino Christ
Ian McKellen (Ian McKellen), the king of Magneto, who played the desperate and pious feeling of the characters very well, is definitely more wonderful than Sir Teabing described in the book.
Let Renault play the role of His usual image of a French policeman is still quite competent
The only thing that makes me dissatisfied is Audrey Tautou (Audrey Tautou) played Sophie.
According to the description in the book, Sophie is a descendant of the royal family, with beautiful red hair and olive green eyes. She wears A white sweater is an elegant middle-aged French woman.
But in the movie, Audrey Tato not only replaced the white sweater with a professional black suit,
and she , who was once famous for the quirky Amelie, did not have the royal elegance described in the book at all... ..... Obviously, choosing her is absolutely necessary for the box office.
Many plots in the book have been changed, and what makes me feel the most pity is the love between Sophie and Langdon in the book,
although I have always been very I dislike the Hollywood-style happy ending, but as far as this story is concerned,
after so many setbacks and tests of trust, it is only natural for two intelligent people to attract each other. It’s a
pity that the director took this The play was processed into an ending
that resembled father-daughter emotions... Speaking of books, what attracted me the most was the interpretation of codes, semiotics, and unknown religious history
. In May, at the Natural History Museum of Beijing. There is a "Da Vinci Technology Exhibition" in which there is a cryptex designed by Da Vinci, so when I saw it in the film, I was not surprised
. The interpretation of "Lisa" and "The Last Supper" makes me feel very fresh~
There are also speculations about the Holy Grail, the history of the Knights Templar, the Crusades, the Rose Line, and the sayings of the Pentagram and the pagans. It
seems that the story is not the first to attract me . The history of Christianity has become something I am more interested in~
As far as I know, Jesus is indeed a person. He created it in BC. Christianity.
But whether he is a descendant of Solomon and the king of the Jews is not known. I think it is his background fabricated for the convenience of missionary work.
However, the current Bible describes him as a god and exaggerates his influence. This is the need for religious rule.
Mary Magdalene is not the descendant of the royal family described in the book, nor is it the prostitute described in the Bible.
According to the archeological conclusion, she came from a small town near the Strait of Galilee, and because she believed in Jesus' sermons, she followed him and became the 13th disciple of Jesus.
In the "Dead Sea Scrolls" discovered in 1945, there is a non-canonical document-"The Gospel of Mary" which records the story about Mary in detail. The
book says that Mary is Jesus' favorite disciple, Jesus Love her more than others, and prepare to let Mary inherit Christianity and let it flourish.
This is the source of the saying "Mary and Jesus are husband and wife" throughout history.
300 years after the death of Jesus, in 325 AD, with the continuous expansion of Christian followers, the struggle against paganism became more and more fierce, so
that the Roman emperor at that time threatened to divide Rome into two and believed in paganism "Sunday worship." For the unification of Rome, Constantine the Great declared Christianity as the state religion of Rome. So
far, Christianity has its own official identity for the first time.
In the next "Conference of Nicaea", many details including the content of the Bible and the divinity of Jesus were confirmed and unified.
For political purposes, Jesus was officially confirmed as God at this conference, and the Holy See was The only way for believers to get close to God was
to obliterate the humanity of Jesus. All gospels and documents describing Jesus' life in the world were eliminated from the Bible and burned.
"The Dead Sea Scroll" is one of the few precious documents that survived
. Mary, who was the companion of Jesus in the world, was naturally blocked.
In order to discredit this woman's position in Christianity, the Bible describes her as a need. Rescued whore.
This is the basis of this book-the story hypothesis of "The Da Vinci Code"~
The Priory of Sion is a fiction, and there are no famous members such as Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton, and Victor Hugo.
Da Vinci is a person who loves pranks and often uses encryption in his works,
but I think it’s a bit far-fetched to speculate about the Holy Grail in "The Last Supper" in the book, especially about V and M. At best, it can only be regarded as several hypotheses circulating in the academic world. I
personally think that Leonardo just used a metaphorical method to justify Mary in this painting. By the way, I also laughed at this passage of Christianity. Dark history
As for whether Jesus has any offspring, I think even if it did, it would have been eradicated in the history of religious struggle for nearly 2000 years...
