    Herzog's representative work in accusing "civilization" (non-primitive things such as history, culture, religion, science, etc.), with the vision of a childlike "wild child" of unknown origin, debunks "the emperor's new clothes" . The characters in the film are all incarnations of various meaning symbols, and do not have sound personalities. Herzog is actually an extreme person, who highly respects primitiveness and dislikes "civilization". (9...

    #Birkbeck class screening, wow. . . Expected to be the best movie viewing experience of the year. The protagonist contacts the "civilized society" with an almost blank cognitive state, quickly absorbs information, develops independent and unusual reason and emotion, but sees the irrationality and absurdity of this society that respects religion, rationality, and civilization, and even persecution. , If after developing an independent personality, you still can't become the self you want, then...

    Permanently selected as one of the top ten individuals. German philosophical temperament to explore how limited human cognition is. At the height of formalism in European civilization, everything seemed elegant and rational, but Herzog reproduced and deconstructed it from a half-prophet, half-alien perspective, proving that One thing: Hauser is not only not sick, but honest; under all civilization there is a great and invisible persecution and...

    Herzog's masterpiece, won the Cannes Jury Prize. The video interpretation of Locke's "white board talk", from the previous [Wild Child] to the later [Elephant Man], the circus exhibition is like the tame version of [Freak Man]. Gas Hober, who was born into a mystery, is lonely and innocent like a child, questioning faith (priest), scientific reason (logician), and decent civilization (old aristocrat). Fuzzy twinkling dreams, disobedient apples, pilgrimages in the fog - death on the top of the...

    [Nortel Standard Release] 5 stars! The essence of civilization to primitive civilization is domestication, but how can a truly enlightened "superman" accept domestication. The mortals/audience are either laughing or annoyed by Superman's words and deeds, trying to use various frameworks (religious/logical/secular) to let Superman fall into the mortal world, but Superman has already jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements. Dreams are Superman's endless scrutiny of the...

    3.26 Beiying returned to the human life when modern times were just emerging. Chaos seems to be on. The beginning of the story appears, and no one knows what comes after, like the interrupted narration of the adopter.

    This savage has almost no training, has little knowledge of language, and can't even stand and walk alone. In terms of abilities, he is like a newborn...
