Mysterious continents rise from the fog
Everything seems to be in a dream
Ancient temples, sacred priests
The roulette of history turns quietly to
predict the destruction of the earth, the passing of heroes The
vast empire falls apart
and the great king slumbers In the lake
... I
have watched the film for more than two or three years. It seems that I want to revisit it every once in a while, and then I will inevitably fall into that world again, and I will be addicted to it. A sanctuary of one's own soul, under the layers of fog, can find one's own place. Listening to the music over and over again, especially the passing of MEILIN, the death of Viviane, the despair and helplessness of Morgaine, the demise of AVALON and the rebirth of AVALON, I was moved again and again, as if I felt the same.
I think everyone is moved in different ways when they read this story. Some people see feminism, some see anti-Christian subversion, but I see the end of mythology, which is lost because of its demise. beauty achieved. When MEILIN died, Bai Wu went up to AVALON's temple, feeling scared and helpless just like NINIANE. It seems that the demise of this world cannot be changed. When Viviane fell, the sun and the moon eroded, the sky and the earth changed color, and when the eternal darkness covered AVALON, I found myself crying. Since then, the world of myths has been separated from the human world forever. People just recall the legendary fantasy in their imagination. What a sad thing it is...
Because I like movies, I went to read the original E-text, and slowly reminisced about the words in it. There are always things that have been thought and never thought of that come to mind: Viviane keeps saying: "ALL GODS IS ONE GOD." . She told the little Morgaine that the goddess has three faces, a girl, a mother, and a wise man, represented by her, Igraine, and herself. Morgaine asked curiously, what about Morgause? Viviane mysteriously said that the goddess has a fourth face, let's pray Morgause don't wear that face...
At the end of the story, Morgaine boarded the barge of AVALON and sailed to the world to pick up the dying Arthur, her brother, her lover...
"I stood alone in the barge, but it seemed that there were other people standing beside me, wearing In robes, high above, Morgan when she was a girl, instructed Arthur to run away with the deer and challenge the deer king; Morgan, who became a mother, was almost destroyed when Modri was born; The Queen of North Wales, summoned the eclipse and dispatched A Kron gave Arthur a heavy blow; and the Dark Elf Queen...or was Death standing beside me? As the boat docked, I heard the last cry of his entourage, "Look, look, Right there, in the rising sun, the barge carrying the four queens, the ship of Avalon's spirits..."
(If you are familiar with the original version of this legend, you will really admire the author's interpretation, such a fatal tragedy. ...)
I can't help but love Morgaine, such a woman, it seems that everyone will touch something of their own roots in her, only their own... The last words she said to Arthur seemed like a goddess Through her mouth -
"Morgan, is it all in vain? All this we do...why do we fail? "
You have not failed, my brother, my love, my child." You have guarded the peace in this land for many years, and the Saxons have not been able to destroy it... You have blocked the darkness of an entire era, until they are enlightened, have knowledge and faith in God, and become a beautiful thing that knows how to cherish what is lost civilized man..."
No one really understands how the goddess will fulfill her wishes—just, she will. Perhaps her demise is also a reflection of her will. Because she has never really died, and remains in everyone's heart. Walking among the green trees, the cool autumn wind blows down from the blue sky, breathing the breath of nature, which is also the breath of the Mother Earth, AVALON is still with us, everyone's heart. As a man, he sees eternal women: maidens, lovers, mothers, wise men...and the goddess who brings life and death. And as a woman, I see myself. It has been said that feminism is doomed to fail because it wants to destroy one civilization without creating another. Incorrect. I don't like the word feminism very much, it seems that there is a tendency to replace patriarchy with it. I think the equality pursued by the women's movement should be a natural harmony. As a human being, it's not a question of who dominates who. Just like what AVALON said, in front of the goddess of the earth, we are brothers and sisters at birth, and in the end we are brothers and sisters. All her priests and priests. I was deeply attracted by the world where I could feel the pulse of nature, the world of myths, and my fascination with it was deepened by the helplessness of dying.
God has not abandoned man, but human beings... have they been conscious of it?
