Beauty and ugliness, good and evil are inherently related

In the past, I disliked all the ugly, evil, and negative things, avoided them, ignored them, and showed the positive energy and the positive side as much as possible.

Gradually, I have seen more and understood more, and only then began to face the ugliness in human nature that we cannot ignore. The world cannot be all good. Tai Chi diagrams and ancient Eastern and Western philosophies have long told us that good and evil must be lingering. If there is a good, there must be a corresponding evil, so that the world is balanced and wonderful. It's no wonder that Plato asked in his Utopia that artists only create evil, because only in this way can they show goodness.

Human nature is inherently good and human nature inherently evil may be a meaningless argument, because when someone is born good, some must be born evil. It’s just those evil factors, do we need a lifetime of practice to contain them?

I am a little confused and at a loss...

    Except for the dressing of some of the characters in the film, there is a sense of age. It is really not seen that it is a film in 1997, especially the sculpture that will transform the entire wall of Al Pacino's room. The special effects are absolutely amazing! Al Pacino's aura is too strong, and large sections of personal monologues are tailor-made for his interpretation. Human psychology should be good, but there will always be times when Satan takes advantage of it. The good and evil ends of Tianbian should be tilted toward that side. It's not easy to handle!

    My poor Keanu, although you are handsome and tall, you are crushed to death by the dwarf old godfather of the big bad wolf like a white rabbit. Al Pacino's acting skills are not ordinary praise, the interpretation of evil is so elegant, charming and long-lasting aftertaste. Recall that Chinese actors seem to have imitated Wu Zhenyu in "Infernal Affairs 2".

The Devil's Advocate quotes

  • John Milton: Are we negotiating?

    Kevin Lomax: Always.

  • John Milton: Let me give you a little inside information about God. God likes to watch. He's a prankster. Think about it. He gives man instincts. He gives you this extraordinary gift, and then what does He do, I swear for His own amusement, his own private, cosmic gag reel, He sets the rules in opposition. It's the goof of all time. Look but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste, don't swallow. Ahaha. And while you're jumpin' from one foot to the next, what is he doing? He's laughin' His sick, fuckin' ass off! He's a tight-ass! He's a SADIST! He's an absentee landlord! Worship that? NEVER!
