Angel, who.

Very cold film. I forgot why I watched this movie.
Prostitutes, lunatics, the masses. certainty.
People are looking for a sense of security and certainty, in order to seek the rationality of life, or to console their loneliness and helplessness in this world.
A person can be really lonely sometimes.

France abolished religious houses, all prisoners were released, and Ines was freed.
Bare feet, tattered figurines, sparse hair, an ugly face due to lack of sunlight. The world is still at a loss.
I only saw her feet. At that moment, the illusion reminded me that it was an angel. I don't know why I feel this way, it's absurd. But in her heart, she recognized that she was an angel without hesitation.
Lorenzo knows the world better than anyone, but like a prostitute, tossing between different men in order to survive.
Who gave the church absurd power. It's the masses, the people, they're horrible. Worse than domination. Lorenzo is just their representative, outstanding.
The angel is attached to everyone's heart, and he demands the equality of people.
So Lorenzo has no angels for him. Do wicked people have the right to be loved. In other words, living itself is a kind of punishment for him. Has been punished for abandoning everyone.
Did he abandon the world, or did the world abandon him in the first place. This is not a problem. Because he is not important.

Ines, the difference between a lunatic and a normal person. People began to deliberately lean toward the lunatic as the most sober people in the world.
This is someone God has not abandoned. He insisted on finding his daughter.
The world is not real, maybe it doesn't exist at all. We exist in this error to eventually disappear.
See yourself disappearing from the camera in the movie. The story goes on, but I'm thinking, if others are alive, are we still alive.

Prostitutes are angels. Are angels whores?
All I remember is Ines, the lunatic. I wonder if people without faith are the most real and reliable people in the world.
Ines' father, the businessman. It really surprised me.
People are equal. At least in the face of pain.
People don't like truth, and they force the ugliness that they can't face on others. The king's woman. After that, she was so ugly.
Ines, why did she follow Lorenzo in the end, that silly smile still thought it was beautiful.
In Goya's eyes, prostitutes are beautiful. That's the real person.

    Inés: She was... all bent and creepy, and she...

    [whispers:]

    Inés: stank.

    [makes disparaging sound]

    Goya: That's interesting, because the witch that I know, she's... she's young, very lovely, and she smells of jasmine.

    Inés: [smiles] She does?

    Goya: She does. And I'm working on her portrait... right now.

    Inés: [smiles as it dawns on her what he means] I'm no witch!

    Goya: [chuckles] How do you know?

  • Tomás Bilbatúa: [worried father, to his young daughter] You have received a summons from the Holy Office.

    Tomás Bilbatúa: Where did you go with your brothers last night?
