The golden rice fields, the
snow-like wheat,
the rolling golden deserts,
the Roman city, the grand and noisy arena, the dusty atmosphere , the
gray-blue mist-like tones
, the soul-stirring dance of death, and the distant, ethereal and mysterious singing throughout,
all of which I like.
Why would I want to watch Gladiator again this Saturday afternoon. I just feel like I'm dying to watch an epic, powerful movie of a hero at this time, or to cheer myself up a bit, or to start thinking about my increasingly blank brain.
I can't remember the plot of it, all I remember is the heartwarming and well-timed sad song of Death Dance, and the sad but determined expression of Russell Crowe, who is such a great actor. The Dance of Death is simply the perfect choice for the film's music production. Their music is mysterious and noble, as if from the Middle Ages, which is perfect for this film. When Lisa Gerrard's voice sounded distant and ethereal, Maximum was hallucinated back to his home, the dream home, the old mottled gray door, the golden thorns flying in front of it: it was like the end of the world, and again Like the beginning of a dream.
Russell's eyes and expressions were so rich, I was fascinated; the nervous Roman prince was rather unpleasant, he was sensitive, weak, twisted and cruel, his eyes were always glistening with tears, his confessions were always full of pain, He is like a painful poet, and he must have been experiencing intense self-torture and struggle in his heart, but he can't get rid of it. There is a demon in his heart, and this demon makes him go toward evil and destruction without hesitation. Although the ancient democratic politics has only its appearance at this time, it still exists vaguely. Just imagine that if the monarchy can do whatever he wants at this time, and the Maxmium can be killed immediately, then the prince will still be so painful? In fact, what made the prince miserable? Is it just a desire for power? He longs for the loyal support of everyone and the love of his father, and he cannot have any of these. He seems to know that this is a destiny that he cannot escape, but the general and slave standing in front of him have all of these, his god-like His strength and bravery, justice, majesty and glory make all people bow their heads and bow down, so he hates so much that he has nightmares, tears, and it is difficult to calm down. Is that right?
People of that era really loved philosophy, and every sentence uttered by the vicissitudes of life Roman emperor can make people think for a long time. The scene where he talks to the prince at the end is shocking and wonderful. The prince's expression changed in an instant, pain overflowed his face, he was extremely restrained but almost collapsed, his voice trembled - he almost touched me, the distressed father seemed to be defeated by this confession and Instantly weak, he stretched out his arms trembling to embrace him: your false of a son, is my failure as a father....
This movie reminds me of Mel Jibson's Brave Heart every now and then. There are beautiful music, heroic plots, justice, bravery, wisdom, and suffering become the main theme of the film, and home, as a symbolic image, interspersed in the film, is the only ultimate paradise of happiness, hope and dreams.
