So my comment is also redundant, just pointing fingers at the moon.
All the questions in the film are actually one question: what is the meaning of man's existence when he is suddenly thrown into this world?
This question raises countless questions, but the root is here.
This is not a question for people who embrace faith. The world in the movie is indeed an era of loss of faith, and our protagonist, the knight, is a man who has lost faith but is still seeking it. Unlike other characters in the movie, some people in the film have completely lost their beliefs and stop trying to find them, some people stick to old beliefs and judge others based on them, and some people never know what beliefs are.
On the way back home, the knight suddenly encounters the god of death. Just as man is suddenly thrown into the world, so his encounter with death is always sudden. Buddha said that human life is between breaths. The knight chose to fight the god of death to win a chance for probation for himself. In this world, in fact, who is not a person who has been sentenced to a suspended execution, but not many people really realize it.
It was at this time that the knight's thoughts about life and death, about beliefs, gradually expanded, occupying his entire mind. However, the god of death is always like a maggot, wandering around him, but in every conversation between him and the god of death, the god of death is silent, or as it says, ignorant, the god of death seems to It's more about listening and watching. However, compared with the ignorance of the god of death, the knowledge of human beings is so fragile, and compared with the silence of the god of death, the human beings are so chatty.
In fact, what everyone will eventually realize is that the question of life is actually the question of death. It is in the process of people choosing the way of death that they choose their own way of life, and the meaning lies in this, if it makes sense.
The film was set in the 1850s, and in the early 2000s, Hollywood made several series titled "Death Comes", the scenes were changed to modern times, but the basic story core was the same, that It is the sudden encounter between man and the god of death, but there is no longer a way for knights to choose a game. The suspension is due to accidents, not people's active resistance. No one is looking for meaning anymore, only a more direct and naked death, only the despair in the bones. base color.
