This video essay is truly insightful. In its own way, it is poetic. Like A Hidden Life, it lifts the veil just a touch, to reveal a little of the Transcendent. Wonderful.

You are doing such a great work with this channel. Thank you for faithfully following that call. Malick is my favorite director - a mystic and a poet with a camera is how I think of him. This and 'Tree of Life' are my favorite films of his. The timing of when 'A Hidden Life' was released was divine orchestration, as far as I'm concerned.

Brilliant. I didn't see the movie nor I think I will have the chance to watch it, but your video exposes wonderful lessons about one of the most undervalued aspect of faith: do things in secret, to build and to provide where noone see us but our Beloved Lord. In a time where to be visible and famous and approvated by others is the plot of many of us, this is a big reminder that could help us ground our feet back where it matters most. Thank for your efforts in this video 🙂

A beautiful, important film, as was Malick's " A Thin Red Line ". Are we again approaching another time of testing ? . . created not by Him, but by us in pushing His Arm away ? Dear Lord, give us even a fraction of the courage, hope and witness of this martyr, . . .this beautiful, holy, simple man and his family. Let the Chalice pass us by, but if necessary, let it come, and Your Will be done.

Marvellous work! I've been going down a bit of a Terrence Malick rabbit hole recently and discovered some great video essays on him and his work by the channel Like Stories of Old. He looks at elements from Heidegger and Dostoevsky in Malick's work and it's profound. However, I'd argue that his secularist biases prevent him from perceiving some of the hidden Christian depths of Malick's work. So, it's great to see a distinctly Christian take on this film in particular. Thank you. The central role on hiddenness that you point out and finding transcendence within and through God's creation, escaping hyperreality, reminds me of Van Gogh and I see Malick as a kind of Van Gogh of film. Moreover, the emphasis on conjuring authentic emotion and creating a spiritual mood through his chosen medium I find again like Van Gogh. There's so much more to be said about this beautiful film! I'd love to hear some of your thoughts on Malick's The Tree of Life from a Christian perspective as well!?

Wonderful review and analysis. I hope you will review other films in the future. Your point about the evil of Nazi ideology and Hitler becoming abstract is a legitimate concern. It is easy -- and very safe - to portray Hitler and his Nazi followers as idiots and buffoons. This has been done a lot from films like "The Great Dictator", "The Producers" and, more recently "Jojo Rabbit". But, idiots and buffoons aren't likely to come to power. It's a legitimate concern and criticism. That's why I really like the 2005 German film "Downfall" it shows Hitler and his followers as normal, fallible people in the last days of the third reich as it is collapsing in on itself like a slow-motion trainwreck.

So very true. Perhaps a little surprising, but not shocking. Basically, the same thing occurred to Malick's film, A Thin Red Line. An absolute masterpiece, but like A Hidden Life, went almost unnoticed, rejected by the critics, and sadly, didn't find the audience it should have had. In the end however, a " remnant " always finds these little gems, and somehow, like The Hidden Life, beautifies the world, and brings some good to it. It does so, quietly, like a true hidden life. A little Transcendence so badly needed by a hurting world. Thank you Mr. Malick. Keep the faith, and keep making your films.

Someone else would read this book, and draw unrelated conclusions. A none conformist is lightly a principled deeper thinker than a soldier, who makes a prisoner kiss his shoe. The soldiers of all army's have their reasons to go to war, usually for excitement, adventure, escape? But it's going with the flow. Franz probably didn't see himself as part of a larger movement (no snowflake, thinks it's part of an avalanche... Should a family man compromise himself to benefit his family? He also has a duty to them, as well as his conscience.. best wishes

@readreligiously
4 жыл бұрын
This is not the proper forum for these kinds of questions, but the short answer is no: that passage is not referring to Lilith, nor does any passage from the Book of Isaiah. There are many explanations I could give for why this is the case, but the most expedient is that the Lilith mythology did not appear in Jewish tradition until the 8th century CE. Therefore the character Lilith would not have been known to the writer of the Book of Isaiah, who finished his work many centuries earlier.

I don't think though it's necessarily negatively Catholic as your doing that confliction with the church part. Franz died devot Roman Catholic his Roman Catholic faith stayed in tacted. To me it's a shows the brokenness of men regardless of their position.

@@TheBibleisArt Mind you I am not RC. What I am seeing here though is there is a implication that your saying rejection of bishop and the priest Because there outside of the church. I saying that the implication is that they were never part of it. The idea that Franz is build his own church is very protestant one. The church itself is a body made up of the believers and the clergy you need both. How are you saw the clergy acting with just the extension how broken men can be even when they feel like they have the right intentions. What I see with Franz and his family is how marriage is both ment to be building the kingdom of God in one own life The martyrdom that marriage is the both give themselves to the other. Great example of this is at the very end she had to give up her husband, the very man that she helped become principle and good had a martyr her self she had to die a bit inside so he can become fully human/christ like. That's another thing as well the evolution we see Franz his spiritual growth I would not say it him build a church but going down theosis. He is become like in Christ in his emulate of him. To me personally that emulation we see what the great examples are the end of the movie right before he is going to die he comforts a man. He show his peace and love right before his death. In some ways a kind of reminds me of the martyrdom of Saint Ignatius.
