"Silence" is a nearly three-hour new film directed by the very dull Martin Scorsese. The story is about a Portuguese missionary who shoulders the sacred mission of God during the period of the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan. The story of missionary in Japan. After the missionary landed, he began to preach in secret, and then silently inquired about the whereabouts of the teacher who had arrived before. Later, the missionary not only met his mentor but also lived to death in Japan. Originally, you thought the story was that this missionary broke through difficulties and obstacles with his fearless beliefs and spread positive energy widely. In fact, after reading it, you will find that missionary is not like that, and beliefs seem to change according to local conditions, but there is one thing. Universal anywhere on earth, that is silence! Like the title of the film, silence itself may be a religion, as the philosopher Wittgenstein said, what cannot be said, will be speechless. The Buddha Shakyamuni didn't say anything before he died, and he didn't say anything during his lifetime. Of course, as an ordinary person, I can only express my admiration silently after watching this film, because only Martin Scorsese can interpret the dullness of such a feature film into true inner silence.
