Hannibal, an old and scary name. When I first heard about Hannibal, it was an introduction from a classmate. There is an American drama called "Hannibal", which tells the story of a perverted doctor who grows mushrooms on the human body and then eats them. His modus operandi is very superb, killing countless people, but never caught.
Perhaps, this is the most terrifying part of the killing maniac.
In the dark, he is a demon, the bad news of countless unfortunate people. On the scene, he is decent, knowledgeable, and polite.
Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to define this kind of murderous maniac.
He seems to be approaching life the way he thinks it's right, and perhaps Hannibal thinks his mission is to weed out all rude people. This has become one of his beliefs. From the perspective of the general values of society, he is a person with a lack of psychology. In his own eyes, he seemed to be carrying an important mission. This can also explain that he treats the heroine Starling gently, and treats all other people who try to persecute him, using perverted means to control them.
And the perverted murderer is also divided into upper and lower ranks. This film has created two different types of perverted murderers. One is a cannibal who takes pleasure in killing people, the other is a masochist who harvests girls' skins everywhere, a person who can kill in the dark without blinking, but can live a normal life in the daytime, and one who kills in the dark, but People who can only live in the dark. These two kinds of murderous madman, the order is different.
However, the one who led the female detective to find the murderer was a man called a devil by the world. It can be seen that the devil also has a conscience, although this conscience is out of love for a girl, and it is a kind of love, which shows that Hannibal is still a person, not a completely inhuman demon. .
And perhaps, this film wants to guide the audience to think about whether there are demons in the world, and even if there are demons, is it caused by us? From another point of view, Hannibal is actually a victim too, a man with a lot of knowledge, who treats ladies with a gentlemanly demeanor, why would he kill without blinking an eye? Is it true that the world lacks love, care, tolerance, and courtesy?
Here's one thing that came to my mind.
Since the terrorist war broke out in Syria, people have been constantly reflecting on themselves. What caused the destruction of human nature, what created the devil in the world, and what led to this nightmarish war? It is unfair, unreasonable plunder, human greed, and a tragedy caused by human beings themselves. Let me ask, if the gap between the poor and the rich in these areas is not large, there are many employment opportunities, and the society is fair and just, will there still be terrorist wars?
Therefore, the predecessor of every tragedy must also be a tragedy.
This is what this film is trying to tell us. More fairness, more courtesy, and more tolerance will lead to less tragedy.
