It took me two tries before I finished watching this Italian-style fresh and simple film. Watching this kind of film has a common feature—the beginning is very long and a part of the plain plot makes it difficult for the viewer to concentrate fully, just like watching the short-lived parents in life, and the interest is high and can’t help but half-hearted.
I thought it was another story about the good guy Lazaro who likes to bind kindness tightly to himself. But in the process of watching the movie from time to time, the Marchioness focused her attention on the camera of Lazaro chatting with her son upstairs.
Son asked: Aren't you afraid, afraid that they realize how deceived they have been
Madam: Humans are like animals, to be free means that they realize that they were once slaves, which is why they are immersed in suffering, and now they suffer but do not know the truth. When I exploit them, they exploit the weaker people. This is the eternal food chain.
My overflowing compassion began to have a little sympathy for the peasants, who were all kept in the dark, knew nothing of the truth, and lived such a miserable life. But isn't this my personal perspective?
When the gendarmerie appeared, found the deceived mercenaries, and then saved them, the plot here pushed to the first climax. When he told them what the real world was and let them get out of their comfort zone, whether the military police helped them from their own perspective or destroyed their utopia, he actually blamed the military police a little in his heart. Who is the world, and what the world is made of, we have no way of identifying. And what the military police do is just like the father of the "Poison Wood Bible" who went to Africa to educate the Africans of primitive tribes. It seems to be helpful, but in fact, it may disrupt the community that originally had its own rules of survival.
For the servants, they were born like the protagonists in "The Truman World", and that land is the world. Rather than saying that they are poor people living in Truman's world, every one of us on the earth may also be a creature that is kept in a petri dish, but our thoughts tell us that our world is real .
Of course, getting them out of the deception will be a help in the long run, but it is also a change of mind and heart for them who have been deceived and need to suddenly change their values.
Finally, Lazaro took his clear and kind face to travel through time and space, and had a violent contrast collision with the villagers who had changed with the times and were always sad. Villagers, are you happy now?
Everyone is ignorant, and to what extent can ignorance be as happy as Lazaro? We spend our whole lives exploring and chasing, and all we do is to increase our unhappiness, and we never tire of it.
How can we be in reality every second?
