The unfortunate people in history are the most incompetent people
Everyone knows that the 1840 Opium War, the British devils were armed to the teeth, and they surrendered to the defeated Chinese army. This movie will tell you, in fact, in the process of British conquest of the world, in 1847, the male No. 1 finished the Afghan War, and maybe also participated in the Opium War, and found out how hard the most incompetent peasant class in his hometown was, and He went to fight as hard as a peasant in any corner of the world.
The big landlord said that when I inherited my father's land, I was on the verge of bankruptcy, and I had no choice but to reduce the population and drive away all the farmers who were not on my land. This will save you from paying poor tax. The Irish peasants who were driven away happened to encounter a once-in-a-hundred-year famine. In the midst of freezing and starvation, a large number of people died like worms, including the whole family of the male number one. When the male No. 1 returned from fighting for his country on the battlefield of Afghanistan and saw such a scene, how could he not go berserk, and there was no way to go berserk. There was nothing he could do about everyone he killed. The first one to kill was the one who closed the group, a relative of his mother, who said that his mother was determined not to drink the Anglican relief soup and starved to death. Ireland is Catholic, right? . He is a group, what can he do. The second is the judge. The judge said that I was sentenced according to the law. Your brother stabbed the police, and the moment he stabbed someone, he was already sentenced to death. The third is the land manager of the big landlord, who is probably responsible for demolishing the house. One ring after another, it all makes sense. The male lead said to Hugo Weaving, I killed them and they said I was murder, and their killing was war, justice. If I don't do this, who will give justice to my family?
Anyway, a lot of people died, the one who gave the order to start the war didn't die, and the one who gave the order to collect the poor tax didn't die. All the people who die are the lowest and most incompetent. That means telling me nakedly, don't be the most incompetent person, otherwise, when an irresistible force (natural disaster or man-made disaster) comes, you will be the first to die.
I liked the whole movie very much. The only thing that is unreasonable is that the male lead was arrested when his brother and daughter-in-law's house was demolished. After killing six people and escaping, he found that his sister-in-law was frozen to death in the old house. It's only been a few days, even if the police station is far away, it's not a few days away. What's more, the number one male gave his sister-in-law some money, so she could pay to live in someone else's house. In order to exaggerate the tragedy, it is a pity to let my sister-in-law die. After all, the first plan of the male lead was to take the surviving family members to the United States, not to kill them in the end. If his sister-in-law hadn't been frozen to death, then for the safety of his family, he would immediately stop the vendetta and leave with his family, but in that case, the movie couldn't go on.
Hugo Weaving's final choice has to be said to be very good. Two intersections, one is to follow up and kill the young captain, and then fall into the death cycle of the great famine in Ireland. One is to go to a new world and start a new life with a group of refugees who are going to the United States. He thinks over and over again,,, the end of the movie.
It has to be said that the Great Famine in Ireland has created many classic literary works. Tess of the D'Urbervilles, ah, beautiful Tess. There is also "Gone with the Wind", Scarlett Hao's father immigrated to the United States from Ireland.
Incompetent people actually have the ability to migrate, from a low-profit industry to a high-profit industry. Migrate from uninhabitable areas to habitable areas. Change is difficult, and the difficulty lies in thinking, not in action. Why was Hugo Weaving sentenced to hanging in prison in the first place? Because he retained the habit of solving problems with violence when he was a soldier, he accidentally killed a suspect. The final choice at the intersection is what he thought after experiencing this incident. I was violent, so I changed from a police inspector to a prisoner who was almost hanged; Feeney was violent, killing everyone, and finally the whole family died. die. The reasons that caused Ireland to be occupied by the British, the reasons why he fought in Afghanistan but got nothing, the reasons why Feeney was murdered, and even the things that caused his own violence and Feeney's violence, are all things that cannot be changed by individuals.
Change what can be changed, accept what cannot be changed, and give me the wisdom to distinguish between the two. This is a quote from the Bible, the prayer that Kevin Costner said before killing in that split-personality killer movie, and a quote that inspired my best friend a few months ago with her twists and turns in her life.
It's hard, really hard, but I want to change.
