The strictness of religion in a certain era may be a need to regulate society. With the continuous advancement of history and the continuous excavation of human nature, people can realize more deeply and clearly what is hidden in their hearts. This is Vianne's Chocolate.
Cocoa from the far-flung Maya appears casual and mysterious in front of Christianity. When Wei An was renovating the room, the camera carefully and frequently showed her exotic decorations. The film is very direct and simple, and the conflict is laid out right from the start. The following plot develops with the clear logic of the old grandma, who is seriously ill and pursues freedom.
The story of red clothes being blown by the north wind in the wilderness is very romantic and mysterious, full of meaning and symbolizing freedom. Maybe I'm being biased in saying that. Later in the film, I got some support for this view.
The mayor was the last to wake up, only because of a little chocolate splashed on his lips after he had been hungry for many days. It's nice and straightforward. Excessive use of dogma to restrain people's lives has created unnecessary conflicts in an era when people's lives are sufficiently well-off and people's emotions are more delicate.
The film takes the people of the town from dogma and religion to the other side of life. As they sang and danced, I was worried that they would continue to move forward and lose their ego, their morality, and their comfort. This concern is bound to happen to a certain extent.
Religion, I think, is tied down on this scale of human nature from the divine to the depraved. Now we need to find faith for ourselves, to find that insurmountable point. Does the modern West still think back to a bygone era under the influence of the Bible? Will this help them again?
Vianne gives chocolates differently from person to person, as if it were a kind of magic, but a kind of respect for the individual .
A wallaby with an injured foot, the ashes scattered in the north wind, perhaps wandering and wandering on a long journey, spreading the good expectations of digging deeper seeds of human nature, it is like a certain state of life that goes on and on and then tires. Stability may be the last hope.
Religion exists in every age, and divinity may appear in other places. Human nature needs to be more delicate and in-depth. People continue to move forward on this road, and divinity may be somewhere ahead.
It's better to be closer to reality.
