The tragedy of "Leviathan" has no "crack" that can be brought back to life

Who is the master of this world? The end of the dinosaur era is a mysterious exclamation mark. I am curious about the view of a French scholar that the dinosaurs destroyed themselves! From this, you cannot escape the extended question, where is human development going. No matter how omnipotent an advanced species is, its legend may have a beginning and an end, is it end? Still fighting each other? The giant "Leviathan" monster, perhaps also living in the age of dinosaurs, is the overlord of the sea world, or perhaps living earlier, is the owner of the earth before the dinosaurs. The common destiny is that it is also extinct. There are also differences. Leviathan’s soul is still there. It is an evil thing in the Bible. At first it was the largest monster created by Jehovah. Later in the Book of Revelation, it became a rebellion against God to destroy the world. The demon. "The Book of Job" describes it as a sea beast with scales that can breathe fire like a dragon and a crocodile. However, in the Old Testament, Leviathan is defined as a female sea beast that lives under the deep sea. It was created by God on the sixth day. Originally, she and Beamon were a pair of giant male and female monsters, separated by God. In the deserts and seas, when the end of the world comes, she and the other two monsters, Beamon and Siez, will become the sacrificial animals of the holy ones. At that time, it was the most transparent and happiest moment for mankind. Imagine that the world has not yet reached the end of the world to be judged, so the ironic "reversing black and white" is always on stage. The victims in "Leviathan"-two men and one woman, are just like sacrificial offerings, they are captured on the altar of power. The seemingly cleared dictatorship poison that has penetrated into the blood is still showing undead destructive power. The political and religious background of the Russian presidential republic and the Orthodox Church reflects the extremely bleak fate of ordinary people nailed to the cross. All the guise is a fig leaf, and when the “shepherd” who has been tempted by power has turned away from the will of God, has turned into a Leviathan monster with open teeth trying to swallow everything. It doesn’t matter if your eyes are closed for a light-tending creature, but if you open your eyes, his hands will protect the fragile candlelight, which is the source of life; the gust of sandy winds are pervasive, but no matter how loud they are, they can’t help but take root in the land. The strong grass, this is natural science. Yunni is different, but when I think about it, I always feel that there is something just around the corner. However, if the enemy of "us" is a blocked man-made world, and fear makes people worthless, and He Bo must be offered fresh lives, then generations of life individuals can only be ignorant. The funerary goods of China, the history crushed by the ruts of civilization can only always exist in the face of tragedy. In fact, looking around, there is no path to reconciliation. For a comedy future, tragedy is the essence of life change. Two people love each other, love each other very much, love so much that life can be forsaken and freedom can be forsaken. Don't blame their love for being too beautiful, it's the mundane and narrow temperament that can't tolerate these thousands of styles. As a result, the world’s Oolong Opera only plays serious in the face of tragedy. A man takes poison to follow a lover who has succumbed to death. After a woman wakes up, she will go to the world of bliss. The world is not as good as the eighteenth hell. It is the buffer who will die early and who will go late. There is no hope at all. This is greatness. The tragedy of "Romeo and Juliet" is another human tragedy that completely breaks the "happiness fantasy" besides Shakespeare's four great tragedies. At the same time, it is also a "comedy" that salvaged pure love from social pollution. This can be regarded as the cruelest "decline first and then increase". There is no turning point, and there will be no glimmers, it is a total sorrow, a song of long hatred, empty sorrow, and no end. However, the victory or defeat lies in the hearts of the people, don't look at it as it fulfills those who have ghosts in their hearts, but this gives the love story a long life and a long history. Movies like this kind of tragedy to the end are best at interpreting love stories, or dramas that reflect on human nature about marginalized people. "This killer is not too cold" made Lyon die, but immortalized his story with Matilda. "Blue Life and Death" makes disease the worst protagonist, but makes the pure and beautiful bitterness drama come back. The film "Leviathan", which claims to be a fighting nation, Russia, has also "surpassed itself" in this "complete self-destruction" style. What made me unexpected is that this movie is not about love, not about human nature. It's about the social pattern of Russia, about a "forced human disqualification" that occurs every day, and about a "rumor" that knows the truth will be dangerous. Yes, the country is different, just watch the excitement, right? Do you have any extra thoughts other than the excitement, and do you have the slightest sense of horror after being left out? In short, what the movie presents is not the intoxicating freehand style, but the realism style that is fake and real. The fighting nation is really sturdy, a bottle of vodka poured into the belly, there is a true temperament to be revealed, not all of them are caught on their knees. After watching the four parts of the documentary "Seven Years of Russian Life", especially the first part, I can already feel the shock of independent thinking in the mind of a 7-year-old child. In fact, the director of "Leviathan" Andre Sarkinsev is so impressive that he has nothing to say when he wants him to interpret his own film. He needs the audience to dig out the profound things by himself. There is not only wisdom and courage, but also real artistic talent. "Leviathan", which was shortlisted for the 87th Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, cannot be ignored. The "Nun Ada" and "Kumquat" I have watched also have their own unique features. Waiting to see the "Timbuktu" of Mauritania from Argentina's "Savage Tale", it is a beautiful competition for the audience. Using this rough analysis of the harvest of movies in 2014, we will find that this year especially produced a category of movies, related to dictatorship, related wars, related to totalitarianism, related to people's livelihood, related to monopoly, related to political interests, and related to power alliances. Because there is an unspeakable trap here, a dark fire that is destroying civilization. Only art can be used as a microphone and can also entrust the beautiful blessings of mankind. "Take copper as a mirror, and you can dress up; if you take people as a mirror, you can understand gains and losses; and history as a mirror. , We can know the rise and fall." It cannot be denied that "Leviathan" is also a stable and mature film in terms of technology, but the superiority of technology lies in the courage of its subject matter and expression technique. Disgusting things feel the same no matter what they look like. The enslaved people who have become accustomed to it, the hell of fooling the flat-headed people, the demolition and the demolition are the fuse of the tragedy and the detonation of the tragedy. Exposing the current injustice of Russia and the shady of the world is the spirit of this movie. It can be regarded as a case of corruption, or it can be seen in the dark. In any case, the feeling of powerlessness is lingering. After the living environment is emptied by interests, there is a disaster if there is no power and no money, and the powerful and the rich cannot escape from the disaster. All mechanisms are furnishings. The law is a joke, the horse is the executioner, the checks and balances of power are deformed, and the one who listens to the government is "God" and the rule is the rule of man. In the face of injustice, there is only one way to survive and death. , Withered wood, rubble, abandoned docks, and the gray sky that can not go away from the haze, life is such a dilapidated scene. And "Leviathan" tied the fate of the four characters in such an obvious despair and hopelessness. There is no hope in holy love, no hope in a just civilization, and no hope in the future of children. There is no hope for the basic rights of citizens. Liyli, is the meaning of love. The ending is the most tragic but also the cleanest. It seems that the "love" that this world sticks to is the most thoroughly buried. First, she was tried on the charge of "the scarlet letter". She was the protagonist's second wife and the child's stepmother. She also had an affair with the protagonist's good buddy, and had already overdrawn her reputation during her lifetime. After the disappearance, various scandals strengthened her impurity. Did the watery woman go to find a lover? suicide? Raped and killed? Anyway, the makeup of the last corpse was painted particularly successfully, like a martyred whose blood was drained. Become the most rich sacrificial food of the Leviathan monster, and cut off the dust with the filthy body that cannot prove the "innocence". Her life is like a Fauvist landscape. Dima is a fighter trying to defend civilization and the rule of law. The ending is cold but the most embarrassing, leaving the game in the name of the humiliation of the "loser". He is an ordinary person with some conscience and some rules, capable people can be ghosts, can be a green forest hero or a powerful minion, everything is based on the personal interests of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, following the law of survival of the fittest, and having the courage to compete but Know more about the rationale for flexibility. A friend’s wife must not be deceived. This is the first precept that he breaks; and the second one is to use his own way to treat his body. It would be okay for him to be completely against the evil, to be a complete villain, without the fetters of morality and law, not to think about his young daughter, and not to play sideballs. Because "Leviathan" did not allow the "weak" to appear, he was doomed to fail and betrayed by this cannibalistic world since he started playing with his friend's wife sincerely. Roma, he is the future and he is also hope. The ending is an equation with no solution, but reality has given him a brutal blow. Children only need to grow up happily, which has become the most absurd lie. The house was demolished, the home was destroyed, my father was going to die unjustly in prison, and the stepmother died. The uncle Dima he admired became a perfidious person. He is no longer the original him. He doesn’t know what he is like in the future. Have to choose. He can't see his destiny. He doesn't even have the right to choose between being an orphan or sending samples to other people's homes. He just needs to accept it, whether it is from "love" or from the government's "charity". Kolya, the protagonist of "Leviathan", a miserable man who can create the miracle of the June flying snow. People who have been deprived of everything, including personal freedom. The land of the house was taken away by the "mayor"; his wife was robbed by a friend and then taken away by death; the son became an orphan in foster care at a friend's house, because a previous friend and his wife testified that he was suspected of murdering his wife, and he was regarded as being taken by a friend Spontaneously conspired and was taken away. 15 years in prison, personal freedom was taken away. The body without faith was taken away by the God of "Leviathan" and abandoned. In short, he is a man abandoned by the world. He didn't do anything, just wanted to protect his own women, children, friendship, home, and land. He only had to show his heart, and the God in "Leviathan" would take it away in the same way, leaving him with nothing.

    The scheduling is very good, the look and feel is a little lost, and the rhythm is affected

    A masterpiece, the lens is cold and atmospheric, the characters in bad weather, surreal symbols, and the texture of Anzhe movies. It is only regarded as a movie about the "nail house" in Russia, which caters to the West and won the award. The film was wronged and the director's talent was underestimated. The monster metaphor of "Leviathan" is both a greedy state centralization and religious weakness. The boy Rome is very much like the boy after the collapse of patriarchy in "Return". Can he escape the monsters when he grows up?

Leviathan quotes

  • Lilya: It's all my fault.

    Dmitriy Seleznyov: No such thing. Each of us is guilty of our own faults. Everything is everybody's fault. Even if we confess, the law doesn't hold it to be proof of guilt.We're innocent until proven guilty. But who's to prove anything? And to whom?

    Lilya: Do you believe in God?

    Dmitriy Seleznyov: Why do you all keep asking me about God? I believe in facts. I'm a lawyer Lilya.

  • Vasiliy: Can you pull in Leviathan with a fishhook, or tie down its tongue with a rope? Will it keep begging you for mercy? Will it speak to you with gentle words? Nothing on Earth is its equal. It is king over all that are proud.
