Between civilization and barbarism

The three male gods can actually feast their eyes on a film, which can be called a dream cast, dressed in an advanced and civilized cloak. Colonial enslavement. Religious indoctrination and conquering by force are only soft and hard. It is a foregone conclusion to get rid of the sovereignty of the sovereign over the divine power. It can be described as internal and external troubles. The cardinal took the zz mission to South America. The moment he was doomed to survive, he tried to exchange the colonial benefits for his inherent sphere of influence. From the beginning of the slave trader's wanton looting of the Indians for profit, they experienced life changes and the Indians had the same hatred and hatred. The two people had different identities and backgrounds. Finally, they returned by different routes and fulfilled their promises in their own way. The Indians were originally the masters of this land. Too much civilization and barbarism are wrong? !

    There is no substitute for technical aspects. It can be said that it is a big difficulty to take pictures next to the waterfall, even the radio itself, and this one did it in real life. The photography itself is worthy of affirmation for this film. The loyalty of faith is difficult. The colonizer's invasion combined religion and political stance, and finally evolved into religious persecution called political stance. There are many ways to protect faith. Some people choose to use force, while others choose to face it peacefully. Martin Scorsese's "Silence" itself also discusses the loyalty of faith. De Niro should be the most flesh-and-blood character in the film. From the journey of redemption from the waterfall to the top of the mountain, to the howl when he finally reached the top, I was really moved. De Nilo is really an excellent actor. Woohoo, Yannio Molina's soundtrack is still very beautiful and moving, but the theme song is more like the melody of evangelism, it can be ranked third in my heart, the first in my heart is still "The Four Seas", and the second is still "New Paradise". paradise"

    It's still a movie I watched in the vcd era. We may never have this type of grand narrative again. From the perspective of post-colonial theory, not only the brutality of the Spanish and Portuguese colonists referred to in the film must be condemned, but also the rationality of the Jesuit mission itself is a complete success problem~

The Mission quotes

  • Altamirano: [to Cabeza and Hontar] And you have the effrontery to tell me that this slaughter was necessary?

  • Mendoza: Though I have all faith so that I could remove mountains and have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor and though I give my body to be burned and have not love, it profiteth me nothing. Love suffereth and love is kind. Love envieth not. Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But when I became a man, I put away childish things. But now abideth faith, hope, love... these three. But the greatest of these is love.
