The realistic description in the first half of the film makes people think that the meaning of the film is that money and desire alienate people. The magic of the second half turns the film into religion. The classification of human evil deeds in Catholic teachings is headed by "arrogance". At the end of the film, Satan said: Vanity is my favorite original sin. Vanity is merged with arrogance. In the second half, the original influence of money and material desires on people is turned into the original sin of people. But what makes human beings full of hope after realizing the evil of human nature is that human beings have free will, free will, the initiative of their will, and what decisions they can choose. The male protagonist finally chose kindness and used suicide to get rid of Satan's temptation.
So what determines the choice? Liberalism asks people to follow their own hearts, because people's free will is formed by the interaction of inner forces, which no one can see (nor can Satan), so people can lie to themselves that they have mastered their own hearts. However, according to Yuval Harari's analysis, free will comes from computing, and a set of human biochemical algorithms has undergone millions of years of polishing, forming a sensory gene and passing it on. Then it can be speculated that the suspense left at the end of the film, Satan will always tempt the male lead to evil, will the male lead repeat the same mistakes? The answer should be no, and the awakening round is earlier than round, because he always has kindness in his heart. After those quick operations that are far beyond the threshold of our consciousness, he forms experience, and then outputs it to the feeling, and the choice is firm and constant. Iterate, and finally become a proper communist steel warrior✊??
