A barbarian is a barbarian~

I haven't had much interest in old movies. Since I watched "Interview with the Vampire" some time ago, Brother Tommy is not so powerful. I personally think it should be his most classic movie. After that, the idea of ​​watching the works of the superstar debut-Arnold's "Terminator 2" is nothing more than one of the most classic works, what else is there before, and then I found this movie
about Arnold There is nothing to say about muscles, and it is also an epic movie. The "Scorpion King" played by Dashi Johnson feels better. From the material to the configuration, it is much better than this movie.
And the setting of the final scene is not very likable-maybe we can't understand "Homer", it might be different if we are Americans. The last scene fully demonstrated all the qualities that a "barbarian" should have-slashing that person out of jealous anger and vengeance, although hesitated before, that is the desire of the rational part of the soul to resist feelings. , But still failed, feelings defeated reason. How can such a subject matter to influence people? No wonder Plato criticizes Homer, saying that he doesn't know what true knowledge is, and what he does is pure imitation-so his story should not be eulogized by us, let us learn it!

Conan the Barbarian quotes

  • [director's cut]

    Conan: I remember days like this when my father took me to the forest and we ate wild blueberries. More than 20 years ago. I was just a boy of four or five. The leaves were so dark and green then. The grass smelled sweet with the spring wind.

    [pause]

    Conan: Almost 20 years of pitiless cumber! No rest, no sleep like other men. And yet the spring wind blows, Subotai. Have you ever felt such a wind?

    Subotai: They blow where I live too. In the north of every man's heart.

    Conan: It's never too late, Subotai.

    Subotai: No. It would only lead me back here another day. In even worse company.

    Conan: For us, there is no spring. Just the wind that smells fresh before the storm.

  • Conan's Father: Fire and wind come from the sky, from the gods of the sky. But Crom is your god, Crom and he lives in the earth. Once, giants lived in the Earth, Conan. And in the darkness of chaos, they fooled Crom, and they took from him the enigma of steel. Crom was angered. And the Earth shook. Fire and wind struck down these giants, and they threw their bodies into the waters, but in their rage, the gods forgot the secret of steel and left it on the battlefield. We who found it are just men. Not gods. Not giants. Just men. The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery. You must learn its riddle, Conan. You must learn its discipline. For no one - no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts.

    [Points to sword]

    Conan's Father: This you can trust.
