Lambert had previously played the French Father Pierre in 1989's Hiver 54, l'abbé Pierre (Winter 1954, Father Pierre), for which he was nominated for a Caesar Award. On January 22, 2007, Father Pierre passed away. On the 26th, a state funeral was held at Notre Dame de Paris. Lambert attended the funeral and delivered a speech at the memorial service. Both Hiver 54 and Des hommes et des dieux can be classified as religious themes because of their protagonist status. He also plays the Capuchin priest Pierre and the Cistercian Christian brothers in the two films. Some things in common: both are simple in life, kind, peaceful in temperament, love for peace (un homme de foi qui agit toujours en homme de paix), and both have love for people in their hearts: in Father Pierre's part, right The feeling of the weak, the homeless, the suffering and the suffering, and devoting all of their lives to help, seeing the poor and the weak as brothers and sisters, he once said, Servir Premiers ceux qui souffrent, la paix est là. He walked a path like a modern version of St. Francis, who came from a wealthy background but abandoned his family business and entered the religious order, dedicating his life to the wider world. In the case of the Christian brothers, it is love for one's companions, flocks, neighbors and even "enemies" (Muslim militants). As a shepherd, he refuses to abandon his flock and abandons them in distress (if he can survive, he voluntarily chooses to die with ordinary villagers in the name of a "common experiencer". Such examples in history are not No); as the dean of the seminary, the youngest and most powerful among the brothers, he cares for them, understands them, listens to their opinions when making important decisions, adopts democratic voting, and never forces those who are unwilling to stay. Those who came down obeyed their own will (although they all chose to stay later); as a peaceful Christian, he did not shy away from the invading pagan mighty armed forces, but was neither humble nor arrogant, and fought with reason. He even dared to refuse to give medicine to Muslims on the grounds that they themselves were lacking ("I can't give what we don't have"), an attitude of equality, perhaps with apprehension, but without hatred and rejection, later on in their He also prayed in front of the body of one of the leaders. It seems obvious to end up in such an extreme situation and be forced to go down the road of martyrdom, because such things have already happened in history, and fate cannot be rewritten, but he was not without a choice at the time, and this final his choice was not his will (Je ne saurais souhaiter une telle mort, I do not expect such a death, in fact, how can I rejoice, because my loved one will be arbitrarily charged with murder for my death) . Martyrdom seems to be the most magnificent cause of a Christian, because the more pain, the more glory? But the companion said, "I did not become a monk to die, not to be a martyr one day." Christian replied, for love. Fear is inevitable for all, but fear is free in love. Even if in the future they were formally martyrs, their purpose was not the pursuit of grâce du martyre. mort, I don't expect such a death, in fact, how can I rejoice because my loved one will be arbitrarily charged with murder for my death).

In the film, Christian is always calm and fearless, standing firmly and powerfully in front of his brothers and leading them, without showing the slightest struggle of his, as he shows other people's fear, anxiety, indecision, he seems safe and reliable, like old age. Luc's brother, but Luc does not lead, Luc only needs to decide himself. The difference between Christian and Luc is that in addition to his own destiny, he also bears the fate of other brothers. Although the right to choose has been given to each individual's autonomous will, this does not mean that Christian only needs to think about it. He can do it himself (what if the historical local Christian chose to evacuate? So what?) The strange thing is that the film does not even show the huge pressure that this burden can cause, as if Christian has always been like this. Undoubtedly steadfast, this rock-solid steadfastness close to sainthood. You must know that it may not be so difficult for a devout Christian to walk the road of martyrdom alone, but if he is accidentally given the power and opportunity of such a burdened group, will he still be so unshakable and unshakable? ? The quiet, unpretentious narrative and characters of Man and God appeal to me, but it seems to have yet to get to the bottom of the multiplicity and complexity of individual specific characters (especially Christian). Testament spirit du frère Christian (

joué par Lambert Wilson ) ma communauté, mon Eglise, ma famille, Se souviennent que ma vie était DONNEE à Dieu et à ce pays.







Qu'ils acceptent que le Maître unique de toute vie
Ne saurait être étranger à ce départ brutal.
Qu'ils prient pour moi :
Comment serais-je trouvé digne d'une telle offrande ?
Qu'ils sachent associer cette mort à tant d' autres aussi violentes
Laissées dans l'indifférence de l'anonymat.
Ma vie n'a pas plus de prix qu'une autre.
Elle n'en a pas moins non plus.
En tout cas, elle n'a pas l'innocence de l'enfance.
J'ai suffisamment vécu pour me savoir complice du mal
Qui semble, hélas, prévaloir dans le monde,
Et même de celui- là qui me frapperait aveuglément.

J'aimerais, le moment venu,avoir ce laps de lucidité
Qui me permettrait de solliciter le pardon de Dieu
Et celui de mes frères en humanité,
En même temps que de pardonner de tout cour à qui m'aurait atteint.

Je ne saurais souhaiter une telle mort ;
Il me paraît important de le professer.
Je ne vois pas, en effet, comment je pourrais me réjouir Que ce peuple que j'aime
soit indistinctement accusé de mon meurtre. il soit, Surtout s'il dit agir en fidélité à ce qu'il croit être l'islam. Je sais le mépris dont on a pu entourer les Algériens pris globalement. Je sais aussi les caricatures de l'islam qu'encourage un certain islamisme.Il est trop facile de se donner bonne conscience







En identifiant cette voie religieuse avec les intégrismes de ses extrémistes.

L'Algérie et l'islam, pour moi, c'est autre chose, c'est un corps et une âme.
Je l'ai assez proclamé, je crois, au vu et au su de ce que j'en ai reçu,
Y retrouvant si souvent ce droit-fil conducteur de l'Évangile
Appris aux genoux de ma mère, ma toute première Eglise,
Précisément en Algérie, et, déjà, dans le respect des croyants musulmans.
Ma mort, évidemment, paraîtra donner raison à ceux qui m'ont rapidement
traité de naïf, ou d'idéaliste :
« Qu'il dise maintenant ce qu'il en pense ! »
Mais ceux-là doivent savoir que sera enfin libérée ma plus lancinante curiosité.

Voici que je pourrai, s'il plaît à Dieu, plonger mon regard dans celui du Père,
Pour contempler avec lui ses enfants de l'islam
Tels qu'il les voit, tout illuminés de la gloire du Christ,
Fruits de sa Passion, Cette vie perdue , totalement
mienne , et totalement leur, Je rends grâce à Dieu qui semble l 'avoir voulue tout entière Pour cette JOIE-là, envers et malgré tout. Dans ce MERCI où tout est dit, désormais, de ma vie, Je vous inclus bien sûr, amis d'hier et d'aujourd'hui, Et vous, ô amis d'ici,








Aux côtés de ma mère et de mon père, de mes sours et de mes frères et des leurs, Centuple
accordé comme il était promis !

.
Oui, pour toi aussi je le veux, ce MERCI, et cet « A-DIEU » envisagé de toi.
Et qu'il nous soit donné de nous retrouver, larrons heureux,
En paradis, s'il plaît à Dieu, notre Père à tous deux. AMEN !

Incha Allah !

Of Gods and Men quotes

  • Christian: [Voice-over] Should it ever befall me, and it could happen today, to be a victim of the terrorism swallowing up all foreigners here, I would like my community, my church, my family, to remember that my life was given to God and to this country. That the Unique Master of all life was no stranger to this brutal departure. And that my death is the same as so many other violent ones, consigned to the apathy of oblivion. I've lived enough to know, I am complicit in the evil that, alas, prevails over the world and the evil that will smite me blindly. I could never desire such a death. I could never feel gladdened that these people I love be accused randomly of my murder. I know the contempt felt for people here, indiscriminately. And I know how Islam is distorted by certain Islamism. This country, and Islam, for me are something different. They're a body and a soul. My death, of course, will quickly vindicate those who call me naïve or idealistic, but they must know that I will be freed of a burning curiosity and, God willing, will immerse my gaze in the Father's and contemplate with him his children of Islam as he sees them. This thank you which encompasses my entire life includes you, of course, friends of yesterday and today, and you too, friend of the last minute, who knew not what you were doing. Yes, to you as well I address this thank you and this farewell which you envisaged. May we meet again, happy thieves in Paradise, if it pleases God the Father of us both. Amen. Insha'Allah.

  • Christian: We are martyrs out of love, out of fidelity. If death overtake us, despite ourselves, because up to the end, up to the end we'll try to avoid it. Our mission here is to be brothers to all. Remember that love is eternal hope. Love endures everything.
