The first part of the silence
of the first chapter clown
Andre, Clear and Daniel are experiencing at the time that clown shelter, at that time he was showing off his hips, while the audience is laughing doubled up. However, after the short and rapid happiness, there is a long silence. In the faint chant, we see the sad eyes of the clown.
The three monks looked out of place among a group of farmers. Daniel is an old-fashioned intellectual. He studies the Bible when he has time and sleeps when he is tired. The arrogant Clear said, "God brought the priest and the devil brought the clown."
Soon the patrol came, the clown was taken, and the harp was smashed. There was only silence, and the monks were leaving, Daniel Pray to them "God bless you". Still silent, indeed, even the clown was taken away, what else can the people express? It's just silent.
In the second chapter, Shaobonnis
Clear went through the execution grounds to the residence of the Greek painter Shaobonnis. When Shaobonnis mentioned Andre, we saw Clear jealous of him: "(Andre)’s paintings are very good, they can tell the truth, but they are not as good as this. There is no fear in his works. Without faith, he has no faith in his heart. "When Lao Sha praised him for being smart, he said: "Isn’t this a good thing? If people are ignorant, don’t they have to be at the mercy of others?" So Shaobang Nice would say "wisdom is a miserable in many cases. The more wisdom the more miserable." Here, Clear quoted a lot of famous sayings, but more of it was a show off out of jealousy of Andre's talents.
This jealousy reached its peak when Andrei was recruited to paint a church in Moscow. And his reason is so high-sounding: "I'm tired of deceiving me to go back to the dunya. André Daniel, you value brotherhood higher than faith" "Father, how many souls did you sell 20 or 30?" "What talent? It’s just that I can paint icons. I praise God because he doesn’t give me such a talent, but I still rejoice, because I have no talent, because I am simple. “
We can understand that if a person has knowledge but no morality, it is A very terrible thing. It's a pity that there are too many people like Clear.
Next is between Andre and the apprentice Foma. It is necessary to focus on comparing these two characters. Because the latter is basically a counterpoint of morality and ethics of the former, it may be roughly summarized as the mutual restraint of pragmatism and idealism. The relationship between the two is a bit like Bollock and Jones in Bergman's Seventh Seal. Foma is an ordinary, vulgar, lazy, liar. And Lublev always hopes to change him. Regrettably, in the end, it seemed to be unsuccessful. Perhaps, at this time, Rublev himself was too naive.
At the end of this chapter, there is a dialogue between Lublev and Shaobonnis. The difference between these two people is quite obvious. Shaobonnis obviously has a long white beard like a prophet, sharp eyes, cynical, and majesty like doomsday judgment. There is a harsh admonition from his predecessor artists, and his works should leave people with remorse, regret, and sadness. On the other hand, Lubev is fraternity, generosity and kindness, and has the humanity of Jesus. Some people say that the two of them represent the Father and the Son respectively. Ha ha. . . .
It is worth mentioning that when Shaobonnis exhorted Lu (^-^) to say that everyone should think about themselves, and complained that when Jesus comes to the world again and we will still crucify him. Lublev said seriously: "But they all regret it, and it is never too late to regret. "Maybe the birth and death of Jesus was just to achieve peace between God and mankind." Let everyone be punished. ""We didn't kill God because of hatred, but because we loved him. "Haha Lublev is still very naive and kind at this time.
Chapter 3 The Festival of the Pagans
The old tower has always been tolerant to pagans, and it is the same here, when Lublev got tied up because he strayed into a love night festival in a mountain village. The witch asked him, "Why do you want your head and feet tied up?" Andre: "It's a sin to run naked and do whatever you want." The witch continued to ask, "Tonight is the night of love. We can have fun with the one we love. Is love? Are you guilty? Do you think it's easy to survive in fear?" "Andre" because you don't understand love, love is like brothers. "The witch continued to ask, "Are all love the same?" "Andre was speechless at last.
Is love sinful? Is it easy to live in fear? Is all love the same? I thought about these three questions for a long time, and finally felt that I couldn't answer them. The reality is This, especially when the self-righteous priests and guards came to capture these heretics, they stripped all the clothes of the witch. When the witch jumped naked into the water to swim and escape, we saw Lublie The husband and his entourage looked indifferent. Let us imagine where she could escape? On the shore are the guards who captured him. How could the so-called "conscience" symbolizing artists and intellectuals on the ship save the infidels? How can she defy the guards and priests? And she herself is completely naked, maybe, this is to survive in fear. And here we can also understand that whether art, morality or knowledge, in the face of power and politics, it is after all Weak. I
remember that there is a saying in "Father and Son" that Russian peasants "deceived even God." There is excuse for the eloquence.
Chapter 4 Doomsday Judgment
mainly explains the relationship between art and power? Golan Stifan, Prince's entourage, said very clearly, "You should let the prince get more praise! "When those artists wanted to paint for others, Prince Goland didn't hesitate to goug their eyes. Artists, that's all. What do artists and intellectuals think about this situation? The people are here. To endure the suffering, the rulers do whatever they want, but the intellectuals read the scriptures in the church that do not help. When the holy fool (that is, a dumb woman) broke in, the Daniels were so indifferent and disdainful. Dere yelled, "He is not a sinner, although he does not wear a shawl, but she also has a soul! "Then walked out of the church. The church was still dead.
The second part of the Resurrection
Chapter 5 of the invasion
is very simple here, the Mongols invaded and burned the cathedral. But how did this happen? It turned out that it was a conflict between Prince Gland and his younger brother, Prince Tat, that caused Prince Tat to ask the Mongols for help. However, the contradictions of the ruling class ultimately resulted in the suffering of the people. Burning oxen, bleeding horses, raped women, helpless nuns are heartbreaking.
At this time, Sheng Yu was snatched away by a Russian soldier, and Lublev rushed up and killed him. In order to protect the "Holy Fool" from being raped and murdered by soldiers-the creed of doing good led him to violence, and it was this dilemma of confrontation between good and evil that shattered his ideals. So that when he met Shaobonnis again, the original innocence no longer existed, "I have been blind to work for the people day and night for half my life...but they are not people. You were right."
Shaobonnis, this Shi is no longer a sharp wise man, his thinking has reached a new height. So, when Andre said that he no longer paints because it is no longer necessary. He replied, "Could it be because your work was burned? Do you know how much art has been destroyed? Evil has already taken over the soul of mankind. Expelling evil means expelling mankind." Regarding your crime, the Bible says What do you say? Be kind, uphold justice, rescue the weak, complain about the orphans, defend the widows. ""You are sinful, but God will forgive you." They also talked about Russia. "My Russian mother always endures suffering." , He endured everything, how long will this last?" "I don't know, maybe forever. "
However, our Andrei Lublev finally made a vow. Art is weak in the face of suffering.
Chapter 6 Dumb Oaths
There are two important things here. The first is the return of Clear, and the second is that Shengyu and the Mongols left for horse meat.
Clearly used to be a jealous person. But now, after experiencing the hardships of the real world, his conscience has finally awakened. So confessed to the bishop, "Don’t drive me away! Let me return to the world of religion! If you see the outside world like me, you will forgive me. In the secular world, if people don’t lie, they will do it for one day. Can’t survive, it’s full of sin!” Finally, the bishop allowed his plea, but “the Bible must be copied 15 times.”
Regarding the relationship between Sheng Yu and Andre, what others said was very clear. “He brought him from Veramir. Here comes a pure fool, and they stay together all day long and speechless, so that it can remember his crimes.” Therefore, the holy fool is a sign of atonement for Andre. And such a relationship is very fragile in the real world.
When the Mongols use horse meat and ornaments to take away the holy fools, we must understand that since the holy fools are sacred, they can’t be wrong:) We can only look at it this way: art, atonement, and oaths are all something Very sacred thing. However, people have no right to impose these spiritual world things on others. Because, in the real world, art will never be more useful than horse meat.
Chapter 7: Casting the bell
is here, and Rublev retreats to the second place. The son of the clockmaker, Boriska is the protagonist. He claimed that he knew the secret of making a bell from his father, but in fact, he didn't know it. He made the clock because of enthusiasm, which shows that even if an artist does not have a good talent (don't know the secret), he can do well through his own efforts.
The clown also appeared. Ten years later, he was old and his tongue was cut in half. But what remains unchanged is that he is still bringing happiness to people. He said to Clear that "The prince's clown is dead, and they want me to go, but I would rather be a carpenter than to go." And the kind jokes people later joked to him also showed that the clown is also an artist. Love freedom and bring happiness to the people regardless of gains or losses. And the scene of Clear kneeling down towards the clown is also meaningful, thinking about his contempt for the clown at the beginning. Ha ha
Then, Klear began to persuade Andre to continue painting, saying many things very classic "The priest is very strict with me, I am worried that I will not be able to complete the task of copying the Bible. But your offense is more serious than me! What am I, what about you? Did God give you outstanding talents and what did you do for the people with it?" They don’t care about your life, they let you paint just to increase their power and prestige. But, wake up Ender Lie, don't burden your soul, don't reject the sacred spark in your heart for this, do the work in your life for the bread crust! "
Finally, it's time to ring the bell. Zi and his entourage also came. We see that the ruling class is still arrogant and brutal, and the people are still crawling on the ground. However, this is not important. Because when the bell rang, cheers erupted from the crowd, and we saw the holy fool appear again, wearing white nun robes, holding a horse, smiling in the crowd, very noble and holy.
At this moment, Andrei Lublev was finally resurrected, holding the crying child, and said the words that can be called the central idea of the whole film "Get up, get up, you are doing well, let's go to Monalide United together. Church bus. You come to cast the bell, and I will paint. Today is really a day worth celebrating for the people. You bring them holiday-like happiness and you cry. "
Then the end of the film shows the miracle of eternal creation-- --Those colorful paintings handed down from generation to generation.
Finally, let's take a look at the metaphor of the title. A farmer got into a hot air balloon by accident. The artist is just like him, can see the beauty and magnificence that others can't see, and have the happiness and feeling that others don't. But, in the end, he must fall from the sky to death, and a horse stood up beside his body.
Maybe it's not just artists, each of us should be like this. :)
