faith

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2020)

There were three times of blood in the film, the first time under the initial small-scale oil well. At the beginning, all the participants were similar. Daniel was also a passionate young man at that time, and he did everything in his own hands and went deep into the danger line. Some film introductions say that Daniel used H.W to deceive the villagers. I think this is an irresponsible statement. The mine friend had an accident with him and left a child. Daniel may not have worried too much at that time. He was also lonely and unmarried for a long time. When he was not developed, he also tried his best to treat his son. Many efforts have been made for his son's deafness. Of course, it was full of reluctance to send his son to the train. The blood at this time symbolizes the young man's initial heart of striving for progress, even willing to risk his life for a better and happy life. But his son's deafness was also a watershed. Daniel rescued H.W. and went to the so-called fire fighting, but people with common sense knew that water could not save the fire of oil, let alone his professional household. He just wanted to appreciate and protect his wealth. Before the huge oil field unprecedented, Daniel began to walk away from his family.
The second time Daniel shot the fake brother. Just as Daniel judged himself, his sense of competition is superior to ordinary people, and he also isolates himself from ordinary people, so he can also identify fake brothers through details. Looking back at H.W 's arson, I wonder if the clues were discovered by looking at the photos in my brother 's diary, and all the originals also disappeared in H.W. 's silence. Daniel has achieved great success, subjectively and objectively overriding others, and the poor Mr. Tief (the person who originally wanted to acquire Daniel's land) is only a cannon fodder. It is attacked by Daniel's speculation on family education. How is Daniel possible Give up your hard-won wealth? Religious ugliness broke out at the same time. Father Bandy discovered Daniel 's murder, but he just wanted him to be baptized. What 's even more ridiculous is that the content of baptism confession was to abandon his son. Ugly showed a new height in the newly built church.
The third time was of course Daniel's mansion. Daniel pronounced Eli's death in Eli's way. He played the role of God himself, causing the fierce Eli to kneel down to the ground completely. Recalling Eli slapped Daniel as a priest in the church, this magical contrast makes drama and reality a perfect combination, and also a series of Eli's ugly faces: Negotiations on the dining table when Daniel first arrived at Sand Ranch, Daniel 's request before the drilling began, the bizarre performance of the devil in the church, and the madness of going home after being defeated by Daniel ... Daniel also completed one of his previous visions-leaving the crowd, he drove away the only relatives and stuck to himself Castle. Without having to go down the oil well again, he quietly transformed the young blood into oil in the thirty-year period, so that others could not take away his wealth, and his son was no exception. Eventually, he and the oil merged into one, regardless of each other.
In general, this strange (music) and dark (picture) film has gone slanted, criticizing and criticizing everything it brings, and talking about the oil of the last century, but it is all in line with the present.
All people have faith, some people believe that others give, and some people believe that they created. Think about how the farmers of Sand Ranch with low knowledge and limited knowledge can live the good life Daniel promised them. Or not convinced by Eli 's ecstatic exorcism? In ancient China, if there is no faith, give you faith, and Confucianism or the call to action is a very contagious shackle or weapon. In modern times, there are a lot of Chinese people who believe in Buddhism in statistics, but I think this kind of letter is a kind of request letter: look at the usual burning incense to pray to the Buddha to pray for peace, but rarely hear the use of Buddhism Moral standards self-requirement; those who charge the incense and ring the bell, and the master opens the light to ask for help, is the money also collected for the Buddha; Rather than preaching for meditation ... Whether inside the temple or in the dust and hustle and bustle, the door was opened to ask for help, and the hermit almost became an addict. This knows no boundaries, and the godfathers revealed in "Focus" even use the faith and tolerance of the masses to secretly desire! Of course, there must be very devout believers, but it is destined to be less and less, because the living conditions are good, the candlestick in "Miserable World" seems to be extinct, and the rich material conditions have diverted the attention of ordinary people. There is no exception whether it is the core of film and television works used for ridicule, or the focus of talk in the intestinal path. The injection of capital makes the original rustic style no longer. Now more faith and trust are gathered on the material wealth. You would never emphasize how to buckle in front of a group of people who have already buckled the first button of their life? The weakened religious system that emerged in China (even if it is lively, kowtows to the RMB) gives me reason to believe that in the communist society described by Marx, religious beliefs will disappear and the prophecies will disappear (it is certainly not a complementary relationship with material desire). Admittedly, I cannot deny the positive role and influence of religion in today's world. Doesn't capitalism make the United States temporarily a brother of the world?
Desire must live longer than religion. There is no doubt that religion is also born of people, and people are afraid of growing up in desire. Conversely, I do n't want to go to the extremes of Daniel. I do n't know if Paul is a method or greed, but who can guarantee his future path?
