The attraction of watching it comes from the confrontation between the head nun and the priest. The metaphorical stories in the film and the eyes of the characters such as the little nun james and the mother of the child misguided me to pursue the truth of one thing paranoidly. I was brought into this scene, and I already had a prejudice against the harsh headmaster of the nun, but at the same time I kept a friendly distance from the priest, and even, I suspected everyone involved, they were blinded by their own beliefs.
Each of us is blinded by our own beliefs at this time.
Doubting beliefs, doubting what you stand for, is a terrible thing. We need to find a balance in this confrontation, and the best balance is to prove others wrong.
The nun headmaster cried at the end, and seeing the sudden tears in her stern eyes from start to finish really broke my heart. She said she felt the loss.
In an instant, I realized that this is not a drama chasing the truth. Doubt is what we are born to be, and when we reach this stage, it is time to re-examine our inner path.
Like the audience, they are accustomed to being blinded by the acting skills of the actors, and are limited by the planned boundaries where the truth exists.
Understand yourself, misunderstand others, think like a saint, understand the meaning and be proud.
In the film, I can't see the spirit of the head nun in the material to preserve the safety of the students. Her existence and justice seem to be just for herself. This is the paradox of religious education, not redeeming her. If at the end there is still doubt left, just for yourself, it is really sad.
Can I find the most honest person in there to comfort myself? But I don't think it's reliable.
All the complexities are less than what you need and want most in yourself.
The word of mind: free.
ps doesn't like the Chinese name: Child Abuse Suspect, and prefers another Chinese name: Shengfu.
I always feel that the most holy place should be his heart.
My favorite is not the heroine, but Viola Davis who played mrs.miller. I was amazed by the brilliant performance that ignited the fire in those few minutes.
