About those two mythical historical figures

At the beginning of the second part, joe recalled the experience of a shool trip at the age of 12. When she had hallucinations, she saw images of two women in the sky. Of course, she didn't know who these two women were. It was a bit magical and familiar. The feeling of spirituality is not there, so I simply read the information about these two women.

First of all, on the right is the woman holding the veil in one hand and the child in the other, looking very holy. The old man in the movie also said that this is Valeria Messalina, Claudius's wife, yes, but the third wife. This queen was born into a wealthy family, the cousin of the tyrant Nero, and Nero is also the couple's stepson, the cousin of the tyrant Caligula [off topic, this tyrant is the protagonist of the story of the Roman Empire's erotic history], or the former emperor of Augustus. Great-niece. Had two children, a boy and a girl, the daughter who later became Nero's first queen. Since it has been said that this queen is also a sex addict, she especially likes promiscuity. I think the tyrant's head is so green, but the emperor didn't care about her until she committed the most serious crime, bigamy, that is to get married again while the emperor is not paying attention [with a member of parliament], this think is a man I couldn't bear it, not to mention that he was still an emperor anyway, so he slapped the queen. By the way, there are many works of art about this queen in history.

The relationship between the ancient Roman royal family is too complicated and unclear. Let’s just talk about the relationship between Nero and this queen. According to blood, Nero is the queen’s uncle. In terms of legal relationship, the queen is still Nero's stepmother and mother-in-law. . . .

Besides, the woman on the left riding a bull, The Whore of Babylon or Babylon the Great, the legend of this woman comes from the Bible book of Revelation, because I went to a Catholic school in high school, and the Bible was a compulsory course, so I studied it at that time this woman. I still have the impression that this woman is the mother of pornography and all abominations. This woman is allied with the pagans of the evil kingdom and the beasts and has sex with the king of the earth. The bull in the movie has 7 heads and 10 horns in the legend, but the fornication of the Babylonian prostitute is only a small part of her problems, the main one Or her blasphemous blasphemous attitude, I don't remember anything else. By the way, whore is also mentioned in Wikipedia and can also be translated into female admirers. 【Idolatress】

In the end, life is too short to have fun, and the true sense of warrior is to face your true desires. Think about this sentence, if you don't do it today, you will die tomorrow! ?

Because I don't study history or theology, there may be some mistakes in the above. Professionals are welcome to question and point out and give more accurate information.

    Ambitious, still has a good sense of form and content. After boldly provoking religion, this time he provoked ethics and morality. Lovers will still love it, and haters will still give low scores. Don't just look at sex, Feng Lunzi is actually a serious person. He is writing psychological novels, philosophy and behavioral papers with the help of images. Four-star recommendation, the end of the next episode is slightly wretched and unimaginative, and appropriate points will be deducted.

    There are always a few moments in Las Von Trier's films that give people goosebumps, the heroine is super touching when she finds the crooked neck tree, and the first climax, the goddess of fantasy, is really amazing, aside from these two points , both of them have several particularly good stories, Mrs. H and P are the best, and they are also embarrassing. The ending is as desperate and unexpected as ever.
