Recently, I often compare the two classic American dramas "Roma" and "Spartacus", two classic works from the two American drama platforms, with many similarities. Today I found an interesting situation, that is, in the two American dramas, the most powerful male protagonists are dead.
This is very interesting, in fact, both people have experienced a lot of setbacks, inner struggles, and even the experience of falling into the magic path have occurred, it can be said that the heart and body are devastated, and it is not easy to live. In the end, they all gained peace in their hearts and died.
Why die? Now that the heart has gained peace, how good is it to live? Isn't the happy ending pretty? Today we are trying to analyze some of the benefits of the screenwriter's setting.
1. According to historical authenticity, Spartacus was a real slave revolt leader, and spartacus died in any version of the legend. So this fact cannot be changed.
If the screenwriter had written Spartacus alive, let him climb the mountain and live happily with the lady of the city. I am afraid that there are many more people who scold him than there is now, and it is too imprecise. Originally, a lot of the content of this drama was fictional, and you can't say that you can change the history without permission and let Spartacus live.
In Rome, although Urenas is not as famous as Spartacus, he is not a completely fictional character, but a character who appears in Caesar's record book many times. Therefore, there is also a certain number for his ending.
2, the two people in the play are amorous people, both have their own true love, that is, their own wife. Their value in this world is for their loved ones.
The first was Spartacus, who was originally depressed and willing to die, but thinking of his wife, he rushed to the arena and completed the first counterattack. If it wasn't for that thought in his heart, he might not have survived the last moment.
After his wife's murder, he was depressed for some time and prepared to sell his soul to Batitas as a monster that existed only for the arena. However, after learning the cause of his wife's death, his goal changed again, and revenge became the value of his life.
So he embarked on a path of revenge, killing Batitas, killing Grebo, and killing all his enemies. In the end, he still had to leave, because his wife was already buried underground, which was the root of his struggle.
Speaking of Urinas, he also loved his wife deeply, and this old-fashioned man never said anything of concern, but in order to regain his wife's love, he also made many clumsy attempts. Unfortunately, some things are going to happen after all, and Neobi's secret becomes a tool of political struggle, which ends with Neobi committing suicide.
And Urenas also began to exile himself, until he was sober and remembered his children, and the family-oriented man repented. But when he learned how the children would be killed, he became a demon.
But the ending reversed again, the children were still alive, and Urenas regained his senses. However, knowing the child's hatred for him, he exiled himself again and followed Antony to Egypt.
Urenas's heart can be said to be scarred, and at the last moment, in order to help Polo protect Polo's son, he was seriously injured, and Polo worked hard to send him home. In the last moments of his life, he also got the understanding of the children and could calmly meet his wife.
From the above analysis, it can be seen that although these two people are dead, this is the best ending, because they left peacefully. That's the ending they want in their hearts, and it's hard to sigh.
Sometimes I think that living in peace is a very happy thing in itself, cherishing the present and being with my wife and children, it is really good.
