When watching movies, I can’t help thinking about religions and the similarities of various religions. Whether it’s Buddhism or Christianity, they teach people to have faith, to repay grievances with virtue, or to be indifferent to grievances, or to use love to influence everything. what. But knowing is easier than doing. If you were being betrayed, how would you deal with it? Will you calmly repay your grievances with virtue?
At the end of the movie, the Count of Monte Cristo also gave up his hatred. That strong hug also explained the major elements of a perfect life. A happy family, your loved one loves you, a loyal brother, a calm mood and knowledge are enough.
From a series of roles, I suddenly discovered that there are many choices in life, but it is better to be cautious when making friends. And in life, more let it go, and less vanity fair pursuits, on the contrary, you feel more secure.
People who have been wronged but are not full of hatred are really amazing. I seem to suddenly understand the greatness of doing it on my own.
Possessing knowledge is also great, as the pastor said in the movie, "Freedom can be deprived, but knowledge will always belong to oneself." With knowledge, the gains and losses are indifferent at the moment. People are the little dust in the vast universe.
It is also necessary to have momentum, just as the cool appearance of the Earl of Monte Cristo and Gatsby shocked a group of people and successfully established prestige. But these are, after all, the means of life, not the essence. After all, it is a face-saving project, which is a bit exaggerated. Just like some things, just know it, don't take it too seriously.
After watching the movie, there is a question that has been lingering in my mind: if he did not meet the almighty and lovely old priest, would Edmond still become the Earl of Monte Cristo?
In this way, it seems that there really is a destiny arrangement. The pastor said that even if you don't believe in the existence of God, you should use the money you get to do good deeds, not for hatred and revenge. The priest also said, "I am a priest, not a saint."
Suddenly I remembered that every time I finished the exam when I was a child, my parents said that they would do their best and it didn't matter what the result was. Now that I think about it, there are a lot of things, just right on my own. Life is like a mirror, you can't lie, you smile at him, he smiles at you. Love is better than hate, emotional release is better than suffocation, and a smile is better than a flat mouth.
Excerpt from the pastor’s two sentences:
"In return for your help, I offer something priceless...——My freedom?
Freedom can be taken away. As you well know, I offer you knowledge, everything I have learned, I will teach you economics, mathematics, philosophy, science... ——To read and write? ——Of course... "
"ma priest, not a saint."
