佳片有约
自我救赎的路非常艰难
看的很震撼。 有种难过。
几年前电影频道看过的南非电影,应该就是这个了吧……
场景简单粗暴,却正符合贫民窟黑人所生活的环境。配乐大气,很有黑人文化的味道。虽然电影情节简单,不过表达的含义应是很多人愿意看到的一面,更是白人愿意看到的一面吧
开始挺残忍的,甚至不敢继续看下去,贫富差距悬殊,底层人们为了生活,什么都干得出来,尤其没有文化、文明的重要认知,而一旦意识到,则会改变一个人甚至一群人的一生,比如那个残疾的乞丐改变了男主继续作恶…(背景的黑人嘻哈风格音乐也很好听)
一个男人,报复的故事。
在美国,黑人是受到歧视的,他们有力量有智慧,但是却低人一等,这样的社会让原本穷苦的黑人更得不到应有的尊重。
补评分:CCTV6
诺贝尔把和平奖颁给了曾经的黑帮暴徒,美国给了他忏悔和救赎的机会。伟大而震撼人心
奥斯卡差不多的套路,看得多了就觉得没多少意思了
经典
我只能说很有深度
经典之作,鲜为人知!
这个还蛮不错的,虽然有点想到了结局但还是为人性的光辉所感动。。。最近发生了一些事情,但我认为错不在我。。需要救赎的不是我。。
