wrote before Corinth, love is enduring, not arrogant, not arrogant, tolerant of everything, believe, expect, and endure.
There are countless sorrows behind a monastery, the separation of mother and child, countless tombstones are built here, and countless souls have died because of this. This is Philomena.
A story adapted from real experience, using a circular structure to shoot, explores what is reasonable belief, and whether some beliefs are really sinful, the characters are full and vivid, the actors are excellent in acting, which is more worthwhile Movies watched.
1952, the Irish atmosphere at that time was conservative, and people were paranoid about sex. The young Philomena was sent to the monastery because of a love that led to pregnancy. At that time, her only happiness in ending her hard labor every day was the one-hour meeting with her son Anthony.
Unfortunately, this happiness was broken when Anthony was 3 years old and he was sent away, and Philomena has been in confession for the next fifty years, feeling that enjoying sex is a sin. After the reporter Martin learned this story, instead of embarking on a child-finding journey, I wonder if the two of them can find Anthony on their journey, and what secrets are hidden behind the monastery? The topic of
has always been very heavy in Europe and the United States. In fact, people in our country are more based on Buddhism, while the proportion of Christians is very small. However, on the contrary, people who believe in religion will restrain themselves by their words and deeds. , To question oneself spiritually. The monastery in the
film has completely demonized the cognition of religion. The old nuns as the dean seem to be the incarnation of a rigid and inhumane religion. They affirm the correctness of their behavior in the name of faith.
ignores girls who may be difficult to give birth, deceives men who are about to end their lives looking for mothers, and even sells their children to adoptive families at high prices. Religious education teaches people to be tolerant and kind, not to do their best in the name of God. Sin and cruel things.
Philomena was also a romantic girl when she was young. She once boldly expressed her love for sex, thinking that it would make her body enjoyable, and then she was imprisoned in a monastery. Her personal idea was to enjoy sex. A sinful thing, even the child who has given up his life for life. The journey of
all the way, the death of her son, the concealment of the monastery, and the sentence I forgive you are actually a change in her mind. The charm of
religion is that it allows people to be guided and purified in the right direction, but at the same time, there may be bad people who use religion to impose restrictions on others that they should not have. In the end, Philomena still believes in religion and still believes in the God in her heart, but at this time she no longer believes in the so-called rules and the spread of ideas from the outside world. She has found her affirmation on this journey.
still touches on the topic of homosexuality in the film. His son Anthony is an excellent politician, but he is a homosexual. Even for political ambitions, he has not revealed his sexuality in politics all his life.
Philomena, once worried about her son getting fat, losing her leg, and not knowing herself, but never worried about her son being gay, and even when she finally learned of her son’s orientation, she just said that I knew he was a Sensitive child. This actually expresses the film’s tolerance for homosexuality. This behavior is recognized, understood, and treated as a legitimate thing.
But at the same time Anthony's cause of death also has a kind of irony. AIDS and homosexuality seem to warn the society of something.
Whether you are at fault or not in this world, only you can always judge yourself. Don't deny yourself just because of what others say. There is nothing wrong with pursuing love or even sex. In the name of religion, people who go to earn money and kill are the greatest evil.
May every light that God gives to people is where it should shine.
