    The first half studies too much, and the second half feels powerless. Would it be better to change the lead...

    I was conflicted watching this movie. Martin does not view Japan and itself from the perspective of Western centralism, but his attitude is ambiguous. Of course this is not the point, the point is to talk about faith itself. The story takes place in 1640, at the height of the European Reformation. The Reformation said "justification by faith," and the belief in God monopolized by the church and idolatry was already falling. This story seems to be an overseas prophecy of the transformation of...

    (8.5) There may be only a few people in the world, such as Lao Ma, who can basically completely convert this content into video. For more than two hours, the conflict only escalated around the belief itself. Before the miracle, even those atheist audiences were forced to the desperate point of an irreversible crisis of belief. How pale and childish the villains who drop a bomb at every turn to destroy the earth are in...

    All religions and beliefs should be respected and treated with kindness. The conversation between Liam Neeson and Garfield in the temple was very pointy. The Japanese believe in reverence for all things and the law of nature, while the Christian belief is people-oriented. Born equal, the two should not contradict each other, but in Japan in the feudal era, they could not tolerate it. There were threats to the lives of believers in the past, and mental torture in the back....

    The video presentation is great, but I am a speculator and cannot deeply understand the kind of persistence and betrayal. I really want to know the original intention of the director's selection of materials. When the little priest apostates, a man hides his face in the seat and weeps. Switch to film censorship, which may resonate...

    The first 1/3 was almost unbearable, and later, because of whether the protagonist would betray the teachings, a sense of suspense was created, and it was barely supported. Garfield is totally out of shape and doesn't belong in this movie at all. In terms of values, I thought Scorsese would discuss a very world-view point of view. He asked the Japanese to say "which God", but the starting point was still Christianity, which was a bit disappointing. Not as deep as Cui Shen's talk show. If that's...

    Christians need devotion, and I am unwilling to give up even happiness. Most of the Christians in the world are the humble rascal in the film, whether they believe it or not, there is no difference, or even worse than him. Therefore, if you go to many churches, you will lose your faith. Give up your hope for heaven, maybe you will be closer to...

    Can you give a negative score? Completely refuse to understand the local culture and local religion, arrogantly believe that your own religion is the truth, and other people's religions are bullshit, and they are completely unreasonable, and you don't understand, how arrogant is that? Respect others' freedom of belief and do not interfere with others Is it difficult for people to believe? Is it fraternity to ignore other people's cultural traditions and force others to accept their own...

    Several comparisons with Shinoda Masahiro's version

    Personally, I think it can be viewed from several perspectives:

    First, although the author of the novel Endo Shusaku participated in the screenwriting work of the 1971 edition, the director Shinoda Masahiro did not look at "Silence" from the perspective of a Christian, so the main perspective of...

    God's ventriloquism

    I don’t know if the history textbooks you study also say that Western missionaries hold Bibles in their hands but are wrapped in guns, ammunition, smoke, guns, opium, and enslave us mentally and physically. . Putting hope in the gods, and dying in the gods’ comfort, apart from the historical...

Silence quotes

  • Rodrigues: The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church.

  • Rodrigues: I thought that martyrdom would be my salvation. Please, please, God, do not let it be my shame. The Lord is my refuge, and my deliverer. My God is my helper, and in Him will I put my trust. Of the Blood, all price exceeding, shed by our immortal King, destined for the world's redemption.
