God's silence

A friend once told me that he could die for his beliefs. I only thought it was serious at the time. It was not until I saw people here that they were trying their best to choose between stepping on a god statue and choosing between life and death. I didn’t know that someone was so religious and almost stupid. believe in faith.

At the beginning, Garfield and Adam Driver are really funny sitting there (that is, neither of them feels like a priest hahaha).

Discussions about faith/women are superficial. In fact, belief has nothing to do with right or wrong. People with belief are rare. What is really wrong is probably the way Buddhists treat Christians and their cruelty to pagans (in fact, Buddhism does not advocate treating dissidents in this way, so those people It is also academically inept, and cannot be regarded as a true believer).

In fact, the most interesting part is the role of Yoshijiro. It is a highlight of this film. It uses the characteristics of Christianity...discussed...Is it useful to be honest? If so, are all sins forgiven after confession? If so, isn't it free to sin and spurn the doctrine at will?

A few details: 1. The priest ripped off the cross from his neck and handed it over to the people. He held up the people's hands and answered their pain without words, so he could only comfort them silently;

2. The priest played by Garfield drinks water by the water, and the shallow water reflects his face, his face is like a god, then he twists his face, smiles and winks in pain, and finally laughs like crazy (if God hears it) Why can they keep silent when they are suffering) (Actually, the priest played by Garfield is probably not so firm, and he will be shaken by his youthful blood, just like he firmly said that he can step on the statue);

3. The perspective in the cage, the thick wooden cage blocks a lot of sight and is broken and imprisoned;

4. When interrogating an upside-down person, the camera of the interrogator is upside-down, wide-angle, and looks majestic and distorted.

    The finale of Martin's religious trilogy. The whole story is about how a man struggles between his faith and himself in the midst of a crisis, with no indication that Buddhism or Christianity is better. It is arguably the most appropriate approach to focus on individuals rather than generalities

    Religious persecution is actually superficial, and the whole film is the same routine that abuses the body and the mind. The photography is very hard, and I feel that the plot is boring and there is still a scene to watch. Garfield's appearance is not serious enough, always reveals a rage, and his temperament does not match

  • 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.

  • Interpreter: But everyone knows a tree which flourishes in one kind of earth may decay and die in another.It is the same with the tree of Christianity.The leaves decay here.The buds die.
