Without the protection of strong power, having excessive beauty will become a scourge, it will become the source of your misfortune. Your beauty makes your life unrecognizable and makes those around you hideous. Even if the final result of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" is that Malena and her husband Nino come together, the town is peaceful, and the environment seems to be beautiful, but for Malena herself, it is still a tragedy of life . Plato said: Beauty is hard! Indeed, in China, people often say: since ancient times, beauty is worth life, beauty is bad for water, and beauty is easy to grow old. Beauty is easy to fade away, and beauty is more likely to attract people's imagination and envy. In the film, Malena's beauty is not a legend, but a real sight, recognized by the masses, is the common sense of the whole town. This fits well with Kant's assumption that aesthetics are universally communicable, because Kant believed that beauty is universally pleasing without involving concepts. But the men in the film not only get spiritual pleasure from admiring the beautiful figure of Malena, but also have paranoia and madness that they can't get their body; At the same time, there is boundless resentment due to jealousy. These paranoia, madness, jealousy, and resentment will definitely not be pleasant, which contradicts Kant's statement. It can be seen that although this theory has certain truths, it still has flaws and cannot be fully established.
