The man who was born naked walks the world wearing all kinds of clothes

Recently I watched "The Spirit of Goya". In Spain, Father Lorenzo raped Islay, a girl who was imprisoned by the Inquisition. He went to France because of religious persecution. After 15 years, he brought back the freedom, ideals and revolution of the French. , turned into a general, returned home and returned to Spain, put Isley in an insane asylum, and tried to drive the daughter Isley gave birth to him to a foreign country. At this time, the British army came in, and also let the Weich half-time Loren Zuo soon became a prisoner, bound and immobile, and finally died on the gallows.

What impressed me the most was that Lorenzo was just a humble man like an ant, and his fate could not be controlled by himself. In a flash, he who was just pointing and drinking, immediately turned into a prisoner with no clothes on his body, and was arrested by him. The people at the bottom laughed and abused, even his daughter, who was a prostitute, was laughing casually at him from a distance by a soldier. When wearing fancy clothes, he can cover up many things, such as his lust, dirty history, mean personality, mistakes made to Islay mother and daughter, but he still A man of status; but when he takes off his clothes, and reaches the most humble state, he is immediately worthless - this is the view of most people in this world.

Just like us, when we wear suits and shoes every day, we look a lot like a person, we have a house, status, identity, and we also have the same evil passions and selfishness as many people; when we have nothing, we are still the same - the most primitive us He hasn't changed, he is always the same before God. However, when it is bright, the eyes can deceive us and make us mistakenly think that we are safe.

In fact, first of all, we are not safe. Anything that may happen at any time will change our destiny. It may not be necessary to become a prisoner, but it will make a big turning point in our life. Many people do not realize that people are like ants and mosquitoes. They are all very humble animals, so humble that they cannot decide anything about themselves;

again, we often fail to see ourselves as we are. I'm a so-and-so manager, I'm a good Ph.D. from a so-and-so school, and so on, as if that tells people who I am. And the most authentic me, the naked me, the me who even the closest people only know a thing or two, we rarely think about and don’t want to examine it, just like Lorenzo, in fact, he is not much better than a prostitute, And prostitutes are not inferior to ordinary people like us;

The man who was born naked, walks the world, wears all kinds of clothes, has all kinds of titles, holds certain rights, and eventually he has to take everything off and go to a place where he doesn't know where he is.

    Restoration of customs and history is not necessarily accurate but (like the setting of the plot) is very entertaining! The combination of punches at the end is very powerful. Goya's montage of copper plates is very happy. Baden's face, which has been featured all the time, can make the screen two inches bigger.

    Why do I think the protagonist is Lorenzo, Javier Bardem is too good at stealing the show. The beginning and the end are good, and the scene at the end of the alley at the end is interesting. Samsung. As a professional in biopic films, Milos Foreman has done a good job in the environment, but the details are mediocre. However, this subject is very sensitive, but it is really good to touch and make people think.
