    Wonderful movie, the screenwriter is very good, called Jerome Bixby. The movie unfolds in the form of one question and one answer, like a mini encyclopedia. It is rich in content, mentioning art (Van Gogh), prehistory, religion (he is actually Jesus) ), Medicine, Biology, Philosophy.... The audience is perfect, anthropologists, archaeologists, Christian literalists, psychologists, etc. Some find it angry, some find it absurd, some find beautiful things destroyed , Some people try to dig...

    "The Man From Earth" is the most powerful philosophical fairy tale ever written. The most exciting part, of course, is the part that expresses doubts about Christ, which is also in line with my view of religion: as a tool of domination, it is inevitable to be used by whitewashing, and eventually it will drift away from the truth.

    I have to admit, it was creepy for me to watch, highly recommended! ! ! ! ! Alternative sci-fi. Believe it or not, it's actually that simple. Our thinking has been framed by life, and when we come to something unknown, it will make us feel bad and push our chests. However, something so incredible is actually...

    Small cost, big production

    Not all sci-fi movies need special effects. This film is a sci-fi legend that does not need any special effects. The film uses language as a medium to build a mysterious and unpredictable world of sci-fi. The thoughts that came were so full of charm, and the reverie of language art was impressive....

    eternal question

    Similar to the Platonic question and answer, it is actually just an intellectual game between two people. But in the question and answer, there can be constant flashes to trigger the viewer's thinking, so it is an interesting film. A few breaking points that I find interesting are as follows:

    Sandy: You never saw your own child die...

    John Oldman: No.

  • Edith: My God, what is this? It looks like a genuine Van Gogh, but I've never seen it before...

    Dan: Is that an original, John?

    John Oldman: No, it's just a gift someone gave me.

    Edith: Still, it's a superb copy. Contemporaneous I think, may I take a closer look?

    John Oldman: Please, yeah.

    Edith: Yes, it's the same stretcher Van Gogh used.

    Dan: Hey, there's writing on the back. It's in French.

    Edith: To my friend Jacques Bon. Wonder who that was?

    John Oldman: Someone he knew, I guess.
