    It has a unique religious style, the light is well played, and the lens is at the height of the person. If there is a God, why does he embrace all things? If there is a God, why does he create...

    "It's an honor to God that Gerloff-Mart succeeded in being burned on a stake on this beautiful day." And later, always fantasized about seeing through her tears, painting an apple tree like love at first sight Annie, who was also cursed to become a witch in this unconscionable...

    4.6 The beauty is also true and evil in the changing light. The tone is slow and depressing. A woman grows and shines and when she is mature enough to shine a light that is too foreign and dazzling for that society to be handled by everyone, alienation, persecution and elimination will come...

    #新看# The light and shadow are amazing, the geometric shapes and shadow projection still have a strong gothic and silent film feel; each picture is a heavy and gloomy poem, and the close-up of the face reaches the heart in the space divided by the light. , the paleness of the face contrasts with the darkness behind the sea, forming another dimension of depth of field; the lighting alone is worth five stars, and the light is so tacit in the inner drama; "I love you is the only sin", the final...

    Dreyer's actors always dragged their voices when they said their lines, low and unwavering, as if in a nightmare. The film is shrouded in a strong atmosphere of mysticism, and the confrontation between witches and priests is actually a confrontation between free and unrestrained emotions and the strict confinement of religion and ethics. Black and white tones intensify the sense of...

    I guess Niyang likes it~ Christian slave morality is overindulged in original sin, sin and redemption, the immortal irrational morality of the great original sin, the immortal irrational morality, blasphemes the original will of life~ "I publicly testify that she is a witch, if she dares, let her deny it" " 'Are you sick sir' 'I feel death touch me as it...

    Birth of tragedy

    There are many literary and cinematic works about the tragic fate of medieval witches. Precisely the Middle Ages was also the most prosperous period of Christianity, and the power of the church could almost decide everything. It is this kind of arbitrary spirit and power rule that allows the people...

    [Film Review] Day of Wrath (1943) 7.5/10

    A 17th century drama about the antediluvian act of witchery persecution and the excruciating human benightedness inflicted by religious indoctrination, Carl Theodor Dreyer's DAY OF WRATH is a sublimely slow-paced threnody that sets to shock and awe.

    Prior to Ingmar Bergman's soul-searching felicity...
