Do whatever you want, no right or wrong

Three points after watching:

1. No one knows what their destiny is, so just do what you want to do, anyway, you won't know whether it's right or wrong.

2. Stick to what you want to do, and someone will hate you.

3. Even if someone loves you, it doesn't mean you're doing everything right.

Some people say that Ramses' final call represents love for Moses rather than hatred, and the individual expresses his fullest contempt for this shameless frame and justification.

All Egyptian children in the city died because of you. The army that chased the Red Sea died because of you. The good life of Ramses died because of you. You don't stop because you want to do it. You deserve the love of the Hebrews.

But no matter how many people love you, people die because of you. You should suffer for it all your life, otherwise you are an immoral beast.

This is the price of wanting to do something according to your own heart.

    It can be regarded as an audio-visual feast. The style of painting is very pioneering. It is in the same line with the adult trilogy led by Osamu Tezuka in the 1970s and "The Wall" in the 1980s. Based on the development of technology, hand-painting has been assisted by computers. The expressiveness is amazing. If Moses and Ramses drove wildly at the beginning, they only used flexible perspective changes and wild painting styles to render the sense of action (and added a bit of leaky basic entertainment), then Moses at the back separated from the sea. , the gray tone of Ramses' death, and other scenes are simply avant-garde and exquisite works of art with strong emotions. In contrast, Hans Zimmer's soundtrack can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. The story is adapted from "Exodus". In fact, religion is a survival strategy in a specific environment. Behind it is the patriarchal dogma of cooperation within the ethnic society and encroachment of the outside world. The Hebrews threw their children into the Egyptian palace for several years. Later, he grew up to be a Hebrew who recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestry without a teacher. At that time, he said that having more children is always useful, and the people behind him are the real gods, so the ancient Egypt perished.

    The most epic animated film of all time, as far as I concern. Though I DON'T recommend people who always have judgements on religions to watch this.

The Prince of Egypt quotes

  • Jethro: [singing] A single thread in a tapestry, though its color brightly shine, can never see its purpose in the pattern of the grand design. And the stone that sits on the very top of the mountain's mighty face, does it think it's more important than the stones that form the base? So how can you see what your life is worth, or where your value lies? You can never see through the eyes of man... You must look at your life, look at your life through Heaven's eyes!

  • Yocheved: [singing, while wrapping a blanket around her baby and hiding it in her arms] Yal-di ha-tor veh he ha-rach...

    [My good and tender son]

    Yocheved: Al ti-ra, veh al tif-chad.

    [Don't be frightened and don't be scared]

    Yocheved: My son, I have nothing I can give, but this chance that you may live. I pray we'll meet again, if He will deliver us...

    [Yocheved, Miriam and Aaron race to the river with the baby]

    Chorus: Deliver us, hear our prayer, deliver us from despair, these years of slavery grow too cruel to stand! Deliver us, there's a land you promised us, deliver us out of bondage and deliver us to the promised land...

    Yocheved: [placing the baby in the basket] Hush now, my baby. Be still, love, don't cry. Sleep as you're rocked by the stream. Sleep and remember my last lullaby, so I'll be with you when you dream. River, oh river, flow gently for me. Such precious cargo you bear. Do you know somewhere he can live free? River, deliver him there...
