I. Introduction
Why will humanity fall? Why do society often have different times of suffering? What is a fraternity, what is justice? These rollover questions in our hearts, once again being "because of the name of the father", how will we answer? How to face the doubts of this kind of power in your heart?
The background of "Father" is a chaotic era, a young man who has mixed a biplish, because you can't get your father's affirmation, so you can indulge your life and take a small thief; the result is inexplicable in the times. It turned into a sniper that the British army hosted, inexplicably be assisted by his Irish compatriots as heroes, inexplicably began to endanger life by the Irish Republican leaders, and thus inexplicably be forced to leave their hometown, and inexplicably become London Bomb habits were sentenced to have been sentenced to more than ten years.
Second, falling and suffering
He is just a little child who feels that he is not a father's love and rebellious, like a thousand million ordinary people, who is not from the situation of doubting father's love, and finally find the preciousness? However, in the event situation, an ordinary nervous father and son relationship, it is exaggerated to combine a young man in a young man; young people's rebellion exit turned to the group's collaborative emotion venting is an exaggeration combination, young The human rebellion is turned to hippie life and being bombed is another exaggeration combination. Everyone comes out from the rebellion, every person loves her loved ones, always like the relationship with their own relatives like a movie, this is a limited humanity. Humanity is originally caused by a lack of lack of lack of lack of training, and the son needs maturity. The father also needs maturity. The limited human nature is an inevitable family relationship. This is the original sin, leading to the story of the family. Son) or the original sin of thin stream (such as father).
It was just a simple family tension caused by just simple sins, but in the tease of the times, everything turned into the root of suffering. Just just the original fear of explosion death, it can become a crime of the British masses to the innocent people; just a simple life rebellion, it can become the best candidate of the demon into cold blood killer; just simple is right and wrong Seat can also become a killer mentality that is not ignorant of cold blood. That's true, this is the root cause of social suffering; because of the limited humanity, it produces the original sin; because of the original sins of the plate, it is suffering; because of the suffering, everyone is looking for the ultimate value care, seek suitable roads for themselves.
Third, fraternity and justice
In the prison, the father always stands out "Bo Love", he does not complain, no money, not discouraged, encourage son. He only seeks innocence, as long as you don't criminal, the environment is innocent, all in the prayer of Maria to God. This is love, but lacks justice, the son can not satisfy, can only laugh in the father's prayer prayer. Son asked: Why did my father always appear when he makes mistake? This is precisely because of his father's love, not willing his son's crime, and take the initiative to involve a variety of life mistakes of your son, but also can't figure out the psychological support of his son's truly needs.
At this time, the real bomb was present, he had a complete justice person, and courageously admitted that he did innocently, and immediately became the innocent of the male protagonist, and immediately became the protector of the male protagonist. He cited him at first, he was never succumbed to social oppression, and the cold and unparalleled bomb threatened to make prison bold and cold, so it was awarded the prison for respect and protection. This kind of perfect justice is deeply attracted to the heart of the male protagonist, and he has become the most powerful assistant of bombing, and planning the demonstration of the entire prison. For a time, do you get the ultimate merits? The demonstration is suppressed, and the bomb is firmly remembered that the prison does not order suppression, according to the calm justice principle, he accepts the punishment of justice. So they designed an incident, bombing personally baked the prison for a full body disabled with homemade flame gun. When I saw the scene of the burner, the male protagonist was shocked: Thabitation, do you need such a cold? He faced a bomb, question: "How is the feeling of murder?"
The male protagonist re-founded the father's love, he could not let his just enthusiastic enthusiasm even if the killing can be calm, and can only seek ways to be opposite to justice - fraternity. The son retreated with his father, re-discovered his father's love, and the father's understanding of the father is so limited, so the performance of love can not be completely; unable to love the son is not full, this is a general misunderstanding of human nature; After the new evaluation of my son's justice, my love returned to my son's mind.
However, Bo love is not a simple answer, and his father is dead, and it is dying in a unclear police person. It was originally available to presupprecion, but insisted that they were dangerous and refused to pay, and finally caused their father to die. Father has passed, and the typical of fraternity has passed. After all, in the face of a biased society, Bo love is not a complete answer.
Fourth, conclusion
How should people be at home in the face of a situation in which the love and justice cannot fully answer? The male protagonist is fortunate to be released by a conscientious lawyer. It is a very compromised "Queen"; if he insists on justice, he can choose "Unless re-tried the relevant personnel, he will never be released Screening protest. "If he insists in love, he does not have to claim that you must wash your father's name - he can become a good person who is silent, this is the ultimate of the love. Obviously, the film finally provides a possible outline: The son is released from prison, not to release the justice of "crime scrub", but to love the father - because of the love of his father, never allow your father I have to pay attention to the opposite of the case. That is to say, the basis of life is worth survival is love; and life is worthy of combustion performance, is justice.
The film finally told us that the suffering of society will never be fair and punish, and the dealers have no punishment, and the names still have no complete scrub. The world is like this, imperfect society, imperfect individual. Complete fairness only has a heart, there is no reality.
This movie belt the biggest movement in the male protagonist experience in social suffering, the baptism of the situation and justice, he found the way is definitely not the only one, he can choose to insist not to have prison until the opposite, you can also choose a father. The same silent and kindness; no matter what he chooses, we will see a mature - experience after the love and justice, and facing the imperfect society and individual.
The movie is absolutely impossible to provide any of our answers, but we can get a variety of thinking through movies: as long as human nature has fallen, the society has suffering, there will be difficult choices between personal love and justice; in various choices, people People find the ultimate value care of your own life. However, whether we can pass the binary tension performance in the movie - let yourself experience with different temperatures of love, so that we may choose the truly mature life attitude? Unfortunately, Chinese culture is clearly lacking deeply confirmed to love and justice. From Taiwan or the movie of the mainland, it comes to the social and suffering movies, such as "sorrowful cities", "Silent Hill" or "Live", China People have a sense of social suffering, always take a sense of history, but also look at the natural roll into the past, and finally it is empty and illusion. What is the binary tension of love and justice? Why is it so lacking in our culture, is the Chinese people who have sent love and justice? Is the Chinese people excessively optimized to use historical natural illusion to transcend social suffering?
