The Brutalist

 May 18. Sunday

The movie The Brutalist is translated into - Brutalist/Brutalist Architect (Hong Kong/Taiwan)/Fauve/Brutalist

This movie has won many awards, but I don't think many viewers will be happy to watch it, especially those in the Asian cultural circle.

Even the use of several scenes that are not suitable for children exceeds the conventional understanding and definition of most men and women about the things between men and women. So, when someone said that she could watch any movie she wanted, I was really excited! I met a master again!

But to be honest, the masters who can withstand my second or third actual combat inspection are either far away or in my dreams. Not learning foreign languages ​​well and not learning English well can be regarded as a real failure in life.

So far, there are really only two most important courses in life: physical education and Chinese. Mathematics is enough for more than 80% of today's people who only need to know how to use a calculator and pass the homework in the book. The remaining 20% ​​are either professional and technical talents or mathematical geniuses, and are not among the neighbors of the people.

Continue talking about movies. I have watched many movies about the experiences of Israelis in World War II, at least among non-professionals, I should be considered to have watched a lot. But this movie actually reflects a lot on Israel's culture and faith. I believe that some rabbis can understand my perspective, and some rabbis or Jewish Christians will agree with my views.

Since ancient times, God's accusation of the Israelites' faith is promiscuity, and what they encountered is suffering. This world is Babylon, and they will not have good fruits to eat.

Therefore, this movie has a strong allegorical color in the historical narrative, so that if we have no confidence in the director---he must be saying something, not just attracting attention, not just establishing a supporting role, if we are too stubborn and habitual to the taste of watching movies, it is difficult for us to see what this movie really wants to say in this era and why it wants to say it. If it is purely from the plot of commercial movies, innovation and artistic standards are certain, but having too good box office may not be the director's first pursuit. From the perspective of the entertainment industry, it is still rare in this era this year.

The movie may be calling for something. Only when you concentrate and calm down in the dead of night, can you hear the baby-like breathing of your soul.

It is obvious that the movie believes in the power of reality, the director believes in the power of truth, and even believes that God's justice and goodness are in power.

Otherwise, the shot of the hero's wife being dragged to the ground after her action would lose its meaning.

However, I absolutely believe that your feelings after watching this movie will be very different from what I said above.

Then what?

Sometimes I think about this world that believes in random doubling, hearsay and arbitrary play in matters such as raising children.

But in other matters, they get feverish at every turn, or do devil training.

Or deliberately practice.

Why don't you deliberately practice to experience the desire of children?

What to do?

Delaying gratification alone is equivalent to constantly tempting children's evil, which is also the evil of human nature.

You prayed to the Lord Jesus not to encounter temptation, why do you, who are top students, constantly test your own love crystallization and your own flesh and blood?

How far is it from symbol to phenomenon to reality?

 Writing is really hard. Writing is much easier. I learned to write after the first grade of elementary school. The first 50 years did not make me understand writing as a profession, and the next 50 years cannot guarantee that I can understand what writing is and what writing is. Writing is really too simple. But, do you write? Do you know how to write? What words have you written? The advantages and focus of tradition are paradigm tracks and fields, not things themselves. And the challengers of tradition just challenge the part that they are offended by, that is, the things themselves, and have nothing to do with the overall situation and ecology, and the historical process and historical significance. At least, it is not what they want to pay attention to and care about. Is reasonable use a technical problem? Or a problem of ability? Or a combination of the two? Saving means using less or not using, maybe water and electricity, maybe money, the effect of things, and a series of e...

How many girls under 25 still seriously want to be mothers?

 How many girls under 25 still seriously want to be mothers? This is a question I am very curious about. The reason for my curiosity is not only because I am a man who wants to understand the soul world of young girls. It is because I am a professional who has been engaged in psychological counseling for 23 years, and I am a Christian who has been baptized for 15 years. According to Chinese culture, I am over 50 years old, and I have reached the age of accepting destiny, that is, I can no longer dream, ask for anything, or do anything recklessly. Many people died in the three-year epidemic. I don’t know why, for various reasons, they just died. The fertility rate of the world’s population has dropped sharply. It shows that people don’t want offspring, and most people don’t want their offspring to live in the environment they once lived in. So, what kind of women want to be mothers? Under what circumstances? What kind of education have you received? What books have you read What kin...

Wed 25 Jun Teacher Fu Peirong said: Only when people are older can they understand the importance of teachers. When people are young, they always disagree with this; those who force themselves have ambitions---forcing oneself to move forward is called having ambitions. In many cases, whether the words themselves are correct or how correct they are is really unimportant. What is important is how the speaker says it, and what is more important is how the listener listens. In this way, speaking is not necessarily important, such as talking to oneself, but communication and communication are always important. But socializing and socializing are not necessarily important. As long as you don't offend people in a muddle, you can't go too bad. The so-called theoretical level is the ability to summarize, deduce and reason. The end point of induction is the concept. The basic paradigm of the concept is a concise structure, clear logic, accurate wording, and a clear boundary between the c...
