It's too long to do a short review, too short to do a long review

From Apocalypse Now to Silence, reflection on the white world goes one step further. Lao Ma yyds, always has solid skills and is full of just-right artistic "idle brush", which is shockingly accurate, the silence shows that Lao Ma is really relatable and playable, the first half of the movie is hard to tell from the audio-visual style ( It may also be that I am not powdery enough). I really didn't expect to be able to shoot until the protagonist's discolored corpse lay in a bucket and then was carried away quietly, damn it. In the end, I left the two characters Liam and Garfield to write back a little bit, and they didn't follow a path to the end. It's great. In my opinion, this is what ideal art should do. But really, Liam's "our lord" and Garfield's temporary reinstatement were enough, that last shot was really superfluous... I really wanted to delete it. Without the intervention of the producers, I might have chosen to keep the character of Yoshijiro alive, a weedy East Asian commoner. It’s arrogant to say this, but since I’ve been in the philosophy department, it’s hard to take the speculation in most movies seriously, especially when a direct debate scene like Silence appears, I will subconsciously reject it—“Oh, nothing more than It's just some leftovers that have been discussed in academia for a long time." This is actually out of self-loathing. No matter what identity I identify with (for example, the "movie lover" identity here), I can find an angle to degrade this identity to achieve self-depreciation.

    Yosuke Kubotazuka is very pleased to be able to play an important role in Hollywood. Two and a half hours is a bit tormenting for an Asian who has no feelings for Christianity. He did not have a sense of identity with the protagonist, but was more inclined to Japanese officials. Why is it arrogant to think that your faith is Truth? I haven't even studied the local faith and I still want to MLM. Can't understand that everything is pushed to God's mentality. Garfield has a strong sense of violation.

    For ordinary believers and the ruling class, religion is clearly a completely different thing. Christianity believes in picking up, Buddhism emphasizes letting go, and Lao Ma abandoned the conflict in the form of opening and closing, but used a kind of internal repeated questioning to strengthen the inner shake of the priest. From extreme pain to complete numbness, and experiencing the catastrophe of life and death, it is nothing but a fleshy skin.
