Not to allow homosexuality, but to allow free will

3.5. Rachel's acting broke out. Rachel Weisz plays an outsider who left home many years ago because of her romance with Rachel McAdams, only to return to this extremely traditional and homogenous (same hat and glasses for the men, after news of her father's passing) Ladies with wigs and down jackets) Jewish community. In the Jewish Bible, homosexuality is against human nature. As with all reunion stories, the two will never forget each other, the sparks must be rekindled, and both have committed extremely daring passion scenes. I thought Rachel was the one who was suffering, and Rachel was the one who ran away, but I didn't expect it to be the opposite, but I felt that Rachel was sick.

A closed community with a strong religious atmosphere is a condensed and decadent society. Not only homosexuality is not allowed, but also to walk out of this community and have free will. The director is actually talking about a process from the germination of free will to breaking ground. The sermon before my father's death at the beginning and You are free at the end actually formed a kind of echo. Not asking permission for homosexuality, but asking permission for free will, the director succeeded in taking the theme of the film to another level.

PS I finally got to the stage where I ran to New York for a movie. I used the moviepass to enjoy the treatment of sofa chairs for free.

Disobedience quotes

  • Ronit Krushka: Esti, do you think I should go back early?

    Esti Kuperman: No... no. No, I don't think you should leave at all.

  • [first lines]

    Rav Krushka: In the beginning, Hashem made three types of creatures, the angels, the beasts, and the human beings. The angels, He made from His pure word. The angels have no will to do evil. They cannot deviate for one moment from His purpose. The beasts have only their instincts to guide them. They, too, follow the commands of their maker. The Torah states that Hashem spent almost six whole days of creation fashioning these creatures. Then, just before sunset, He took a small quantity of earth and from it He fashioned man and woman. An afterthought? Or His crowning achievement? So, what is this thing? Man? Woman? It is a being with the power to disobey. Alone among all the creatures we have free will. We hang suspended between the clarity of the angels and the desires of the beasts. Hashem gave us choice, which is both a privilege and a burden. We must then choose the tangled life we live.
