God is not always in the garden, he is also in the hilltop market and temple

It's really uncomfortable. The music is too horrible and the tone is too gloomy. The director is a person who is good at expressing emotions with images. Maybe there is something awesome, but I don’t like it personally, full of negative energy...

Why do you want to live like this? Isn't sunshine a little simpler?

God is not saying that there are three things that always exist in this world: faith, hope, and love. And the biggest is love.

I agree with what the somewhat sophisticated black man said: You are always in the garden. It’s not good, covered in blood and sweat... You see, God is not always in the garden. He is also on the top of the mountain, in the market, and in the garden. Temple...

This sentence has a lot of meaning.

We are always an ordinary creature in the world. Even if we have ideals, we should stand on the ground and live in real life.

Those illusory things, whether they are beautiful or gloomy, should not be taken seriously! Otherwise, you will be unable to live with yourself and God.

There is also a character in it that says it well: Do you know what God’s plan is? Did he tell you?

It's ironic, right...

Many people who think they have followed the will of God are just blinded by delusions in their hearts.

This pastor can't save him, but he tries to save others and save the world. I didn't really understand God, but I didn't preach to others.

He was actually just an ordinary cowardly and narrow-minded poor man.

No matter what professional role we are, we can't always devote ourselves to consume ourselves, we also need to absorb nourishment, sometimes overlooking the earth, standing on a macro level to see the entire world of human time and space, sometimes having fun with the people, sometimes having a dream to get close to the gods...

You see, God knows the combination of work and rest

Whatever gets into the tip of the horns, whatever it is, is all attachment. Those who are too persistent are not God’s intentions.

God wants everything in the world to proceed according to its original laws. Since birth, he will naturally live and wait for the death of nature or the next reincarnation.

Ah... I don’t want to see this kind of work in the future

It took a lot of effort to get over

Bye no

See you again.

    1. Another spiritual work by Paul Schrader continues to present the mental journey of a cynical male. 2. Academic narrow-frame, almost full-length fixed shots (only a few sports shots mostly occur when the male and female protagonists are together), a lot of close-ups and close-ups, tilt shots, cool low-saturated colors & low-light lighting, indoors The minimalist furnishings, cramped space, and sparse soundtrack of the film all reinforce the gloomy and solemn tone of the film. 3. The structure of the story is like Bresson [The Diary of a Village Priest], the self-questioning and questioning are like Bergman, and the scene of the hero and heroine embracing the world is like the floating saint and the old library in the old tower [Sacrifice]. 2001] The Combination of a Space Odyssey. 4. Ethan Hawke's performance is amazing and so fitting for the role. (8.5/10)

    I especially like the unique atmosphere and the photography that goes well with it. On the basis of "Diary of a Village Priest", environmental protection elements are added. The male protagonist's psychological portrayal and performance can be described as excellent. The departure of his son's deceased wife, the torture of the virus questioned his beliefs, his empty and lonely soul like a desert was affected by extreme environmentalism, and the female protagonist may be the earth to him. on the final green.

First Reformed quotes

  • Reverend Ernst Toller: These thoughts and recollections are not so different from those I confide to God every morning. When it is possible. When He is listening. This journal is a form of speaking, of communication from one to the other. A communication which can be achieved simply and in repose without prostration or abnegation. It is a form of prayer.
