Tragedy destroys the valuable things of life for others to see

In an era when it is very easy to be moved-it is not that there is no story worth moving, but that there are too many moving things in front of you and me, which make people feel deliberate, clumsy, and low-level. In some movies or TV, the smell of copper is always exuded from the screen, and there is always the scent of business. Maybe something like this can earn tears, but it's hard to get into your soul. Without touching the soul, it is cheap and shameful.

Only films like Po Lang can tear up the value of a person's life to protect it for you. Even if the bells of heaven rang, giving a touch of warmth and comfort to the end of the film, it is difficult to let go of the long-lasting pain. When the doctor couldn't understand Beth, he asked her mockingly: What talent do you have; Beth naively said, I can belive (i can belive). Beth's madness disrupted the church's norms, and they abandoned her in the name of God. But Beth said to them, how can you love a word, how can you love a word. In order to give her husband the will to survive, this woman was abandoned by society from doubt to belief, from belief to death, and not abandoned by God. There is no Christian civilization in the Chinese historical tradition, and it is difficult to truly understand the power of prayer and the kingdom of heaven, but I am willing to believe that the husband is saved by the wife.

Lu Xun once said: Tragedy destroys the valuable things of life for others to see. Breaking through the waves is just such a movie that tears love apart for you. Before this, I only saw the dancers in the dark by Lars von Trier, which was also six or seven years ago. The vague memory is awakened by the waves. I think Lars von Trier deals with a more general theme-love. The difference is that the dancers in the dark talk about maternal love, and the waves are about love. If the intuition is correct, then I would prefer to say that this is also a movie that tears up the most valuable thing in the world-love-for you.
