Knowing that it will fail, but still doing it, this is what Hubble Lee called courage. Fifteen years ago I saw John Huston's "Genesis" and it was very disappointing, he was trying to get the shock of the image in the literal translation of the Bible. However, because the subject matter was too grand and the attempt was too simple, it was a complete failure. I was laughed at by the young me.

And this good film with famous director and famous star introduces a giant (Samyaza) and an enemy, connecting the myth of creation with the confusion of the post-industrial age (The end of beginning), which has produced a powerful substitution. feel.

You must know that in Genesis, Noah's original record is only one page. An impossible task.

There are several questions that they have always affected the audience: First, why destroy human beings? Second, why did you choose Noah? Third, do you want to spare the lives of your two granddaughters?

In biblical origins, human sin begins when Cain kills his brother. Cain means gain in English. For the sake of gain, for profit, he killed his younger brother.

As a religious film, it cannot but reflect the Seven Deadly Sins. And through the faces of a large number of Cain's descendants, we see greed, vendetta, and pride. The movie didn't say anything, and it performed very well.

It's just that they added an original sin to innocent Noah - murder. The movie has Noah kill the evil humans trying to get on the ark. It was also arranged that at the end of the movie, he was alone in seclusion.

But the Bible says that the record here was recorded by the descendants of Noah, and that he was a righteous man who walked with God, there is nothing to blame. This alone explains why God chose Noah. And the movie says, because Noah has compassion.

The movie portrays the concept of redemption very well. The Tree of Good and Evil was also designed as the tree of connection in the Garden of Eden, and the serpent was designed as a fetish for shedding its skin. In the Great Migration, snakes are also specifically mentioned, in addition to birds and beasts. The Bible makes it clear that snakes are the most cunning of all animals. 3

    Oh, so Noah's Ark is such a thing. I don't understand religion, I've learned it. But will start to reflect on some of the conclusions that I used to take for granted, such as "Man is controlled by himself, guided by his willingness." And Noah's theory is that God controls us and we cannot disobey God. A little dizzy. PS: The second son kept asking Noah, father, and my brother's daughter-in-law. laugh.

    Fine art, no more. It feels like Aronofsky may have read some magic book at the time.

Noah quotes

  • Og: Watchers have learned to fear men.

    Young Ham: Then why are you helping us?

    Og: The Creator formed us on the second day. They day He made the heavens. We watched over Adam and Eve. Saw their frailty and their love. And then we saw their fall. And we pitied them. We were not stone then, but light. It was not our place to interfere. Yet we chose to try and help mankind. and when we disobeyed The Creator, He punished us. We were encrusted by your world. Rock and mud shackled our fiery glow. Still, we taught mankind all we knew of Creation. With our help they rose from the dust, became great and mighty. But then they turned our gifts to violence. Only one man protected us. Your grandfather Methuselah. We were hunted, Most of us killed. Those who lived were left prisoners in these stony shells, marooned upon this barren land. We begged The Creator to take us home. But He was always silent. And now you claim that you have heard His call. Samyaza cannot accept this. A man? When it is men who broke the world. But I look at you and I see a glimmer of Adam again. The man I knew. The man I came to help.

  • Noah: Fire consumes all. Water cleanses. It separates the foul from the pure. The wicked from the innocent. And that which sinks from that which rises. He destroys all, but only to start again.
