is another nearly four-hour movie. The opening announcement has told us that the American literary and artistic elements are not as usual, and the intermittent in the middle , The sphinx is combined with the two tallest pyramids, rose gold, I am curious, although the ancient city of civilization needs to be nurtured by river valleys, no matter whether it was once surrounded by eight waters, Xi'an, the ancient capital of China in the thirteen dynasties, or Athens and Rome, which was once invincible , What's more, the most ancient Egyptian royal city is full of loess flying or strange rocks. The majesty is majestic, but the vitality is nowhere to be found? Why is this?
In fact, I would not dare to write a film review without a considerable background knowledge of such a film, even if it is only for myself, I will be dumbfounded when I check it in the future. The little historical knowledge I have in middle school has already been returned to the teacher, and the 5,000-year-old civilization is so vast, I really haven't been able to figure it out. Looking back at the history and geography courses in childhood is really very important. Some people may be chaotic all their lives about their position in this world. How can they not be arrogant or self-righteous? It's really a frog at the bottom of a well. This frog has heaven and earth when it falls, or even has its own god, but in the vast universe, I think it's better to maintain a humble attitude. Thinking that when I finish reading Durant's history of world civilization, it's about time for me to retire. The plot of this movie is about to be forgotten. So keep a little laughing stock for your future self.
The Mediterranean coast, especially the east coast, is the most splendid ancient civilization, Mesopotamia and Egypt. Now all kinds of bloody farces are being staged. I often ask myself and the scholars around me, but there is still no reasonable answer. Can explain why this place is so turbulent, people here take their own and other people's lives so lowly. Islamic believers, Israeli Jews, are stirring up this 21st century civilization. This question made me want to read the Bible too, and my best friend believed in Christ. It turned out that I was actually quite illiterate. I feel that God looks mighty but is not friendly and benevolent, and is often ruthless. As Borges often said, "The delirium of God... affirms everything, denies everything, and confuses everything." Legend has it that a priest even spared no effort to calculate that God created the world in more than 4000 BC. According to the deduction of modern science, this is of course impossible. In the 1960s, it was discovered that the earliest human beings in Africa were 3 million years ago (?)
I am so wordy and have not officially talked about this movie, this is mine. , because I am such a progressive person. The story took place between 1250 and 1260 BC, because this is a religious movie, and God is such a "self" that we can't know, so if we want to summarize the movie in one sentence, it can only be the one that is repeated the most. The line "So it was written, So it will be done". Everything is God's will.
Although our library contains a vast sea of literature that seems to encompass the entire "universe" (Borges Tower of Babel Library), although this age of interconnection makes innovation as ordinary and as plentiful as the harvest of rice, it is like The frog that jumped out of the dry well, human beings always easily hit their own limits when facing this universe. That's why there is God. If we can't explain it well, we give it to God and call it "mystery". We call the breathtaking natural wonders "magic craftsmanship", and even we love our lush land, so we call it He is "the land of China"; even we can't grasp our own ideological realm, so we call it "spirit". Hence the inevitability of "So it was written, So it will be done". Marx saw this limitation of human beings, but he was also a materialistic atheist, so he invented the concept of "the realm of necessity". It is believed that there is an eternal realm of natural necessity when producers exchange material with nature. Human beings can never be completely free from the laws of nature. Really! Can you choose yourself to be a man or a woman, a general manager? Can you choose to be reborn in America? Can not! Therefore, Marx said that this field is always a necessary kingdom, and the kingdom of freedom always exists on the other side of the real material production field.
As a human Moses, in the royal palace of Egypt, he has everything that a real prince should have, from his own courage, wisdom and sincerity; from the abundance and wealth of the material world; and from the love and trust of others (Pharaoh's trusting fatherly love and Naphitinas' fiery love) What a life it was, but suddenly he came down from the apex of kingship, voluntarily stripped of all his positions and worldly wealth, and became a country without a nation and without hope , the soul wanders alone like the wind in the yellow sand. This is really not explained by secular logic, not to mention as his adoptive mother and Naphitinas said, "If you became king, wouldn't you be better able to help the Hebrews?" All these logical Neither fact nor exhortation prevented Moses from becoming a sufferer, a deliverer to the Hebrews.
Deliverer is just a messenger. He is neither a hero nor a god. He doesn't even have Joshua's bravery and command, nor does he have the sanctity of a god to be offended. When the monument was built for the pharaoh, the flag was waved, and thousands of ropes were cut down with thousands of knives. When he became a deliverer, all he was left with was resignation. He just turned the scepter into a poisonous snake like a machine, dyed the Nile River red, and spread the plague. This is not what a hero did. Even if there was a battle in the Red Sea, he was looking for an illusion while fleeing.
He could not find firm convictions, because he had a dialogue with Cipolla: "He made man in his own image, then if this god is the true God, then he should live in every mountain, in every valley, and he should live In every mind and soul, not just the God of Ishmael, but the God of the whole world." He also didn't understand why God's justice, justice, and universality were so incomprehensible. (Note: I also don’t understand) It’s not even as sure as Zipporah, who said, “Can a man judge God? No!” It’s not even as good as Zipporah who dares to love, Zipporah will say, “Is this Egyptian woman skinny? Are her eyes like cedars? Even though there is lust flowing in her veins, even if she is like a beautiful jade, she has only radiance and no warmth, our hands are not soft but they work hard, our bodies are not fragrant but this is the truth, Love is not art but life and life." What a profound truth, what a brave way to live.
Like a puppet, he accepted Zipporah's love, which is brave and self-confident to a woman, and seems to be indispensable to Moses. It's hard to say that he had a sense of his mission, because even when he had to make a bad move, he said to Rameses "I am not the delivery, I am not the man, I am a shepherd." Moses went from hero to The victims were stunned with blue threads, as if they couldn't tell why except for "destined by heaven".
So when the pharaoh who was betrayed by his beloved son died, he just said indifferently: "Don't make a fuss, after all, death is also a part of life." then go. Small to come, easy to go. So it was written by a human shape so let it be done. This is the humility of human beings to their own sobriety and the respect for natural reason!
