It is too far-fetched to have a relationship with the "Passionate Age" mentioned in the introduction. If you insist that the two films are similar, then the similarity is not that witches harm people, but that both films are about religion harming people.
"Days of Wrath" is clearly divided into two factions. The social mainstream and ruling party represented by priests, priests' mothers, and villagers in the Middle Ages are old-fashioned, ruthless, cruel and superstitious. The reason why the priest will die is because of the betrayal of his wife and children, and clearly because of the guilty conscience caused by the death of the old witch, these hypocritical and cruel people should be tied to the stump.
The heroine and the old witch represent the other side, the old witch is kind and simple, "I don't care about heaven or hell, I am begging for life, I am afraid of death", while Anne is another brave Anna Karenina, one of them So being pastors is the opposite of them, because they still have a human side to them.
In fact, it is a movie with very modern thinking. Many movies at that time were very advanced in thinking, weren't they?
