It is a heartbreaking and thought-provoking sermon that will challenge the viewer to consider their own convictions, and whether or not they would stand up to evil.

I think about the suffering so many nameless/faceless people in history have endured, and without God, it is too painful a burden to bear. This film is an antidote to nihilism, which is so tempting when observing such a broken, vile, fallen world. Such hope and beauty in it.

Every single North American slave owner counted himself a good Christian, just like every Nazi did. This is because the Bible is constantly contradicting itself so you can find something to justify whatever your position is. And this is because it is not descended from the creator of the universe... You can tell by how he said to treat your slaves well, something that the creator of the universe would never say, assuming of course that the universe had a creator which there is no indication of... The bottom line is that every single human culture that ever existed in the last 500,000 years invented gods and creation myths, thus proving that it is an essential part of the basic nature of species. Nobody had ever heard of the god Yahweh until 4000 years ago. TL;DR If the Bible can't even steer you in the proper direction regarding something as simple as slavery, what good is it as a moral compass?
@CarapaceClavicle Жыл бұрын
@@patrickparker4576here’s the thing though, Catholics don’t take out of context Bible verses and base their morality off of them because sola scriptura is false, Catholic social teaching has never condoned slavery, slavery was actually naturally eradicated by the feudal Catholic systems in Europe long before anywhere else on earth and value laden presuppositions are completely meaningless if you justify your beliefs by relativism. ACTUALLY LEARN church history and doctrine and philosophy then you’ll realize just how empty your condemnations are.

@@patrickparker4576 Hmm, wouldn't make such a hasty condemnation of the Bible because of the bad behavior of those who have used it to justify wrongs. Slavery back then (not the infamous chattel slavery based on skin color that helped build the United States) was a socially accepted institution that cannot be blamed on 1 religion. Likewise child sacrifice was fairly common back in the day and no one blinked an eye. Most (not all) pre-Judaic religions were polytheistic and had lots of names for their gods. Judaism was unique in that God identified themselves as "I am who am," i.e. didn't have a proper name and even now devout Jews don't refer to God by a proper name. Women too were considered property back in the day but Christianity suggested not only were women equal to men, there was no gender differences in Christ. I'm sure many so-called conservatives would be pulling their hair out if they really reflected on that! I agree the Bible alone isn't sufficient - it's a dense book with lots of meaning that while you can certainly pick up on some of it with a 3rd grade education, you won't get the full meaning and in fact I would argue when it's being abused it's due to a lack of education.

MCU is good so far. But do you accept that all MCU films are good? Are you happy with Disney's live-action movies?

The music is the Symphony No.3 by Henryk Górecki. It is taken from an anonymous poem to his mother written by a prisoner in a Gestapo cell. It is so moving. It can only be listened to in silence and concentration. It is very slow and overpowering. "A solo soprano sings Polish texts in each of the three movements. The first is a 15th-century Polish lament of Mary, mother of Jesus, the second a message written on the wall of a Gestapo cell during World War II, and the third a Silesian folk song of a mother searching for her son killed by the Germans in the Silesian uprisings. The first and third movements are written from the perspective of a parent who has lost a child, and the second movement from that of a child separated from a parent. The dominant themes of the symphony are motherhood and separation through war." Wikipedia

Though there were clergy in the Church that protested , particularly the German Catholic church when Hitler took over and the Nazis came into power there and then worked with the allies including Pius (who got bashed ) as intelligence for them and helped the Jewish communities etc. - all this stuff is coming out now from government official articles because it is now being declassified- time restrictions up so historians are correcting the past narrative on it. At first people weren't sure about Hitler and the Nazis . THere is a book about the American ambassador (a Professor) and his family to Germany and how long it took for them to realize the true nature of Hitler and the Nazi movement and what was going on, and it was also a climate of fear for many people that they sort of went into a self denial about what they did hear or see- since they were kept in the dark about many things being in a authoritarian strictly controlled society . So he was perceptive and very brave.

This movie is a stunning Masterpiece! It stirs your soul, drawing you in slowly, yet deliberately, then moving you along on a train of emotions until you reach that final destination and become overwhelmed by the towering presence of God's love. Not since Schlinder's List has an audience been so deliberately captured, unable to escape, while the sheer force of Malick's message demands an emotional response from the observer. As you stand and prepare to exit the theater, a quiet reverence for this beautiful achievement is felt and you feel as though a part of your soul has been given away, removed, and you are forced to seek answers to life's great mysteries, to question and think over the significance and meaning of life and human interactions. Emotions found deep within one's being are forced out and unleashed as the climax of the film recalls the true life events of a loving husband and father, a simple farmer, whose great sin amongst his peers is wanting peace. Great films evoke feelings in an audience that many are usually unwilling to share, or reluctant to acknowledge, and like all great works of art, once seen, emotions are impossible to suppress. This is cinematic artistry at its best. If Oscar, the Academy for that matter, fail to recognize this stunning achievement, then they will have finally squandered what little credibility remains after years of poor selections and political correctness. The whole spectrum of cinematic imagery is employed by Malick, as he takes us back to Citizen Kane with his use of shadows and corridors of black and white, close up facials and unreachable windows of light suggest Malick wants his audience to search for God's hand in our daily lives. Confined spaces are contrasted by vast vistas of fields of wheat, rolling hills, lanes of tilled land and columns of trees that reach into eternity; mountains tower over us, distant but omnipresent, while streams flow below, filling rivers with life. The Nazis, Malick wants us to remember, have abandoned the search for meaning in life, ignoring the essence of their surroundings which they are so obsessed to control; they resort to violence and brutality, all the while ignoring God's majesty, life, and constantly determined to reject God's presence in nature, intent on lusting for power, and once achieved, creating places of steel and isolation, caging humans in cement cells like captured birds. Answers that will help explain life's mysteries are all part of Malick's quest. He gives his best attempt to answer his own queries at the film's conclusion. And through it all, there is one thing that is certain at the end of the film - there is no disputing the fact that Malick is a genius and this film is his Tour De Force - a Masterpiece, pure and simple. This is a film that needs to be seen multiple times in order to fully grasp the meaning. Malick, with this film, has entered the Parthenon of Film Directors from Welles, Kazan, Hitchcock, Spielberg to Kubrick. His visions require deep considerations and detailed reflection in order to properly appreciate the meanings Malick so carefully projects onto the screen. "A Hidden Life" is a hidden gem, that will only become more astonishing to look at with the passage of time. Bravo Terrence Malick!!

Well spoken. It appears you are one of the few left on this planet who desire answers to all of mankind's leaders inflicting such pain and suffering on the masses. My answer. Religion. Religion and lust for power to control what is thought of as, "all humans are sinners" has been the struggle since man could first subject man to his control. It's fear based rather than love based.

Just got back from seeing it; quite a sobering movie esp with the craziness of work and the materialistic holidays. I didnt want to stop watching it. Malick & Widmer really make you feel like you were there in those ordinary moments as a farmer. Former brings back his favorite theme of family: screenplay like from Tree of Life. Thiel's character really inspires us to do the right thing and live life by morals/principles. His wife was so beautiful/enduring as a mother + wife and wise especially. She (and their love) was the one who made her husband a good man.

Is a majestic, beautifully shot film. The cast is excellent too, the contrast of the close ups of the individual characters and the settings specially the mountain side are breathtaking. There is shot or two of the family enjoying life before their tragedy at the edge of the mountain where the camera mirrors the angle of the mountain itself. It reminded me of Silence and Paul both moving and powerful films. Unfortunally for some men like him, the Nazis hated those who did not break under pressure peacefully resisting even more than those who fought back against them. The music is just amazing as the journey of his test of faith is told for 3 hours, yes is a long movie but worth it all.
