To be honest, this movie is not really my thing. The background of the film itself is the chaotic Colombian city of Medellin, full of violence, drugs, and death. The entire city is dark and restless in the film. Even the church gave off a faint burst of silence. In addition, the version I watched was really poor quality, so my mood was even worse.
Coupled with the difference from the general film narrative, it has no exact main line. The old man wandered the city with the young man all day long, his mouth kept babbling, from astronomy to geography, the writer wandered with the young man with a yearning for death and a certain sense of relief, introducing here and there, constantly Recalling the past, occasionally going crazy and smashing the tape recorder. The young man kept looking at the old man's face with joy in his eyes, as if he had discovered a new world, with childlike curiosity and anticipation. Whenever the old man made a slight joke, he would laugh unabashedly, with a bit of a foolishness.
The old man looked relieved, but was actually tangled. And facing him is a completely simple boy, as simple as a piece of paper, a stroke is a stroke. Because of the simplicity of the worldview—the principle of killing and being killed by the environment—the young man is very interested in the rather negative worldview of the old man. The negativity and humor of older men may be a major factor in attracting these teenagers. Of course, there is more gold.
The specific analysis structure of the film has already been analyzed, so I won't say more. The only thing I want to talk about here is the performance of the simple love of the teenagers in the film. For example, the second teenager said a sentence when the old man found out that he already knew the identity of the old man: "It's okay, I won't kill you. Because I love you."
In fact, this sentence is very simple, and there is nothing outstanding about it. . But there was a simple shock coming out of the mouth of this murderous young man. This group of teenagers who walk in sin, bear sin and are finally captured by sin are like moths in the wind, flashing like fireworks in the night sky. They take life too lightly, like gambling chips on the table, tossing them at will. So they are pure and terrible. As a result, they can express their emotions in very simple words without modification, which is something I admire very much.
Without any modification.
No extra action.
Laughing, grinning.
"I love you."
So the wound became eternity.

La virgen de los sicarios quotes

  • Fernando: "Thou shalt not kill." Why? Taking someone's life is doing them a favor. A huge favor. Let them live. It's what they deserve.

  • Fernando: You can't live without sex. People go crazy without sex. Look how nutty the Pope's become. Spouting crap everywhere and kissing floors. Saying that homosexuality and all that is a sin. That's a sin? Having kids is a sin! There's no space left, the Planet will explode!
