Philosophical and speculative are too strong to understand and dare not give points; one of Bresson's masterpieces, a series of ideological struggles (with himself, with God, with other priests, with the teachings) revolved around the nameless priest. Finally, I drowned in the abyss of my self; I didn’t quite understand the rumor that the parishioners didn’t come. This young priest who was unwilling to change, “has neither the ability to accept adversity nor the courage to face everything without fear” Always seems to oscillate between poles;
After the 1950s and 1960s, the modernist movies flourished, and the speculation about the existence of God and spirit, love and evil, and the existence of God also began to be revealed in the movies.
The general afterthought can be summed up in the vernacular: after all, people have to adapt and integrate into the world. As for whether they can keep their inner principles, it varies from person to person, but people can neither change others nor share with others. Affection.
"The heart plans his steps, and God directs his paths"
Some excerpts from the lines:
I never knew them, nor will I;
love is stronger than death;
We do not master love, love has its own rules, and God is love;
In fact, heaven does not exist, God's world is our world;
How ridiculous that the giver gives what the giver does not have
What did I do wrong and why are they against me? Child, you are you, no one can change it, people don't hate your simplicity, but they don't want to be like that, because you exist, they are dwarfed;
I have neither the ability to be submissive nor the courage to face everything without fear;
A man cannot coerce another to change his mind; besides that strange peace, I feel that a new misfortune is about to come;
I like the dawn, the beautiful dawn;
Youth is blessed, but even if this youth is blessed, it still has risks, and I have a hunch that God doesn't want me to die before I understand these risks;
But what is the use of believing in God, if God cannot shelter the soldier;
What they need is the kind of justice that God has given them, a kind of justice that is not something to be proud of;
Their world devours a lot, like an altar that devours everything;
It doesn't matter, everything is merciful.
