I should say this about the movie. How sociologists see this movie: Mississippi is the deep south of the United States, the stronghold of right-wing conservative forces, and has been a key battleground between the north and the south since the civil war. In conservative spheres of influence like Mississippi, Tennessee, and Virginia, there are beautiful idyllic poetry like country road, and black slave history like movie stories. Sometimes it's hard to believe that this scene in the movie is only a generation ago, but it's true. Of course, the facts are complicated, and when we look at "Gone with the Wind", it also shows that even in the farming and pastoral era, whites and black slaves had close feelings and brilliance of humanity. I remember when I was a child, my mother told me that during the Cultural Revolution, a criticism meeting was held and the poor peasants came to power to approve the landlords. The artist looks at this film like this: Compared with the similar "Untouchable", "Green Book", etc., the structure of this film is a little chaotic, the heroine, the story of the two maids, the relationship between several high-class people The stories, each with its own clues, interspersed with each other and disrupted the rhythm. At the same time, the director has too many ideas to express, some of which are only exposed, but not in depth. For example, Stein, the magazine owner in New York, has a corrupt bourgeois image every time he leaves the country. Why did the director make such an idea for equality? People who have made outstanding contributions are shaped into such an image? Did not explain. Philosophers look at the movie this way: When the maids complained together, they mentioned that the previous owners thought they "own" the maids and could decide the lives of the maids, and they couldn't go where they were not allowed to go. In fact, this is the characteristic of modern capitalism. Modern capitalism does not use any slave system to enslave people, but uses an intangible value and business rules. A lot of friends told me a while ago, if you leave, you must not offend xx capital, this kind of rich capitalist kills me like an ant, definitely worse than the farming and animal husbandry system. Another is that the maid was inspired by the church and decided to confide what happened. This is actually embarrassing, and it concerns the origins of rationalism. Religion and human traditional slavery have the same root, and then human enlightenment and rationalism told people that everyone is equal and should not have slaves, but people still need to gain strength from religion to oppose the same root as religion. things, and gaining strength from religion to support the rationalism that was supposed to bring down religion.
