God, Adam and our apple

The 2005 movie is indeed a masterpiece that has been overlooked.

First of all, the main thing is belief. Movies about beliefs, or movies with some reflections on beliefs, have always been my favorite themes. For example, Ang Lee’s "Youth Pie", India’s "Little Lolita’s Monkey God Uncle", "PK", "Ouchi God", as well as "God Bless Bobby" and "Filo Mena" which I like very much. "Retribution with Virtue" and so on, as well as the hotter Mel Gibson's "Hacksaw Ridge" and Martin Scorsese's "Silence". When I watched "Repaying Complaint by Virtue", my master wrote a short film review. He mentioned a story, which seemed to be seen on the topic of religious belief in Zhihushang. He said that it was a person walking on the road and suddenly flew towards him. A lot of small rocks hit him. He was very angry and began to curse the indifference of the God he believed in. He scolded as he walked, only to find that God was doing his best to cover the densely flying rocks ahead with his arms outstretched in the front of the road. Most of the flying stones hit the face and body of God, and only a small part of it fell behind and hit pedestrians. So this person was ashamed of his cursing and not understanding God just now, and continued to believe in the omniscient and omnipotent God. This is probably the story, but the following discussion does not stop. Someone asked: "Since God is omniscient and omnipotent, where did these stones come from?" The answer should be "Satan", so someone asked: "Since God is omnipotent, why not just eliminate Satan?" If Saying these evils will bring benefits to mankind's understanding, so that mankind can better face the future and go on. I also don't agree with these, because I really can't think of a meaningful level of things that God can endure, such as events like World War II Judea or the Nanjing Massacre. Of course, this is a big event where countless individual encounters have been gathered after the historical process. If such a topic is said too much, it may be often ruthless. It may be more worthwhile to pay attention to the experience and attitude of a certain person at the time. Thinking and inspiration. This is also the reason why this film "Adam's Apple" focuses on Father Ivan and the influence of Ivan on the people around me. Perhaps in the hearts of every believer, they also know that they cannot explain God's indifference, and cannot explain the pain and sin experienced by themselves or others. The devil is always there, why is God not always there? In fact, this is not the case. It is not that God is not there, but when we pray, God is also praying. When we are suffering, God is also suffering the same. So is there a God of faith? It may be said that there is, but in fact it is not on the top of the head, nor on the platform of the gods, but it is in ourselves. God is us, and Satan is also us. God The omniscience and omnipotence of omnipotence are all our summaries of our past and our infinite potential for the future. Just like the Indian player mentioned in this "Adam's Apple", after losing his feet in an accident, he was still able to run home and even started training and playing football. The things that people's conscious will can carry and change may really far exceed our imagination. This is true for this Indian player, Ivan, the protagonist of the movie, and so are the devout believers. Maybe they are just looking for some reasons to face those sufferings and sins. It is the devil that is testing them. Maybe they just want to believe in God, believe in those beautiful things, in order to maintain a balance, and resist those bad things to break this balance. Some say that this is an escape from reality, yes, this is indeed an escape, but there is nothing wrong with it. Shouldn't we be far away from the things of suffering, sin, and sorrow? Escape the ugliness and cruelty, choose to believe in the goodness and the sunshine. Another point is the major events in the historical process mentioned above. Perhaps we often see his suffering. This is not because the crime and cruelty have been magnified in these events. In fact, it is just that these events have magnified the crime and its suffering. The sum of goodness and goodness of opposites. Because perhaps we are looking for some of the beautiful glories in these events, they are also so profound that we continue to have expectations for the future. No matter how deep a sin a person can commit, he can show just how glorious and great it is. The sum of goodness and kindness. Because perhaps we are looking for some of the beautiful glories in these events, they are also so profound that we continue to have expectations for the future.

Secondly, talk about some other specific favorites about this movie. The first is that such a tragic soul salvation story is presented in a complete comedy construction. The interaction of the images of Adam, Gunnar, and Khalid produced a very good comedy effect. There are a few passages that I can’t stop laughing, such as when Ivan struggled with cookies, when Khalid drew a gun and shot a bird, Khalid drew a gun and shot a bald party... The second is in the car. The song that appeared many times, the mood of Ivan and Adam at that time corresponding to each appearance actually changed differently. The insertion of this song is like a gradually healed heart knot, and it is a very bright existence. . The third is the existence of several images, the book of Job that is opened, the hanging statue of Hitler that always falls, the apple tree... These are the same as that song, like the indispensable surprise in this story. The last is the end. At the end of such a story, it is still sunny. At this time, Ivan again drove to pick up two problematic guys who had come to "reform". The difference was that Adam was accompanied this time.

In addition, let me say that Max Mickelson is a male god, an absolute male god.
(The above are some messy things that come to mind after personal viewing. They are only personal experience after viewing the movie. If it is inappropriate, it is not targeted or slanderous. Welcome to point out the discussion.)

Adam's Apples quotes

  • Khalid: [after shooting 3 skinheads] God damnit, this is a shitty day!

  • Ivan: Evil has many faces and it can be difficult to tell them apart and choose sides. Especially these days where so many things are said in this and that town. Everything has so many nuances. Also we humans. If the game of chess had undergone the same development as humans the queen would be in front, the rooks would be crooked, and the pawn would be the main piece. We no longer know who we are and this rootlessness...
