    [Film Review] Corpus Christi (2019) 7.4/10

    Orthodox Christianity is allusively mocked in Polish filmmaker Jan Komasa's third feature CORPUS CHRISTI, in which, Daniel (Bielenia), a young offender released on parole from a youth detention center, takes on the duty as a locum vicar in a sleepy town, under the pretense that he is a priest...

    Saint or liar

    (Text/Yang Shiyang)

    One piece of clothing changes a person’s identity, and one identity reshapes a person’s spirit. This is the story told in "The Eucharist". Don't be fooled by this name. What this movie talks about has nothing to do with the religious affairs that people imagine. It's just...

    "The Eucharist of Christ" looks at sin and punishment. Although people have original sins, they can only become demons and gods in a single thought.

    This film is quite unpopular in China. It was screened at the Venice Film Festival in September 2019. The film was nominated for "Best Picture". Nominated for the 2020 Academy Awards for "Best International Film", it is "one of the favorites" among the newly released films, and the other is "Hunger...

    Why this film is my best of the year

    After watching this film, I had a feeling of not being clear, but the impression was very deep.

    Most people compare the content of the plot with "Fake Lieutenant". I really don't think it is necessary. The plot is produced around a core, but how to pull a pseudo-religious film to the side of...

    Another way of youth growth and religious reflection stories

    At this year's Oscars awards ceremony, South Korean director Bong Jun-ho stole the limelight and swept four awards with a "Parasite". Perhaps the front is too dazzling, covering up some other equally powerful films, especially in the best international film award. The remaining four selected are...

    memorandum.

    Cyan-gray tone, full of cold air, or soot or frosted glass? In short, it looks like a dusty old church, but it's not close to the dignity of Hamoxiuyi's oil painting. The dim light resembles the sand wall of a Japanese room. It is very skillful to use light. For example, when the old man passed...

    Who is qualified to serve God?

    Who is qualified to serve God? Who has the final say? Danny, the protagonist of the Polish film "Alternative Priest" (Boże Ciało), is a juvenile delinquent. After he converted to Christ, he hoped to become a priest. Father Thomas, who shepherded him, poured cold water on him, bluntly saying that...

    Personal Views on the Religion in "The Horse Thief" and "The Eucharist"

    After watching "The Horse Thief" and "The Eucharist", I feel even more that people really need to have a faith. But the feelings of the two films are different. For me, the feelings of "The Horse Thief" made me more convinced that "Only art and religion can make you survive hardship" the...

    Can faith be changed

    What this movie talks about has nothing to do with the religious affairs that people imagine, but it just borrows the priesthood to tell the process of a young man's reincarnation. This film tells the story of a boy who used to commit crimes from a juvenile prison and accidentally put on the...

    "The distance between God and man"

    Feelings of watching "The Eucharist of Christ" --- self-reported prayer: "Where you come from is not important, the important thing is where you are going..." You have taught this way. Here I pray to you religiously, my anger, my pain, and my grievances. May you forgive my sins. I also want to be...
