other kind of evil

A movie about the devil seems to be quite difficult for me, who lacks religious culture. Afterwards, I checked some knowledge about the devil. It seems that 666 is the code of the devil. I remember watching a bad Hong Kong movie called Devil 666. And that pentagram is also very evil. It's the opposite of our east.
It's about a senior devil worshipper who asks a ruffian bookseller to collect two identical books to see if his own is fake. This book is about demons. The two amateurs were killed, as was a former bibliophile wife (she was more amateur, purely for sexual venting). Among them was a ghostly beauty who was always beside Depp, and the last senior The admirers of the book also failed to crack the book's secrets and ended up being burned to death in the ceremony. But Depp was beside the fire, turning the clouds over the rain. The woman told him the last secret. When he went back to the old place to find the brothers, he didn't have them. It turned out that all this was arranged by the devil.
There are two doubts, that Depp sees light, is it good? is it bad? But I think it was the devil that I encountered, because the saint often said that "Satan often pretends to be an angel of light". And the person played by Depp is a bad guy who is greedy, greedy for money, greedy, regardless of life and death, and fits the devil's taste very well.
And what role is that green-eyed Eastern European beauty playing, a devil? The devil's messenger?
In the end, it is an open ending. Darkness overcomes evil, because the devil turns a person who is good in nature but has many shortcomings into the messenger of the devil.

    The old man really didn't see it much. .

    The waveguide is very strong, and every step is full of metaphors. Satan is the devil, and the woman is the devil. You can't resist women, which means you can't resist Satan. Many film reviews are very thorough, but there is no mention of one point. Now, Depp is the person who is so evil. If other people can't get out of this feeling, the university will really not understand it.

The Ninth Gate quotes

  • Dean Corso: [pulls Liana's gun on him] Stand aside.

    Boris Balkan: I credited you with more finesse.

    Dean Corso: You heard me. Stand back!

    Boris Balkan: Put that away. It's not your style.

    [upon overpowering him and shoving him into a hole in the floor]

    Boris Balkan: It seems you found your proper niche at last... I like that.

  • Boris Balkan: [reciting the secret meaning of the illustrations] To travel in silence / by a long and circuitous route, / To brave the arrows of misfortune / and fear neither noose nor fire, / To play the greatest of all games / and win, foregoing no expense / is to mock the vicissitudes of Fate / and gain at last the key / that will unlock the Ninth Gate.
