What Scorsese's 'Silence' Teaches Us About Filmmaking [light spoilers]

Рет қаралды 149,093

Күн бұрын

Martin Scorsese’s nearly thirty-year passion project, Silence (2016), has finally been released. Silence had been in development with Scorsese since 1990 when he signed a written agreement to direct the adaptation of Shūsaku Endō’s 1966 novel of the same name. Scorsese was given the book as a gift by Archbishop Paul Moore after a screening of The Last Temptation of Christ and Scorsese read it a year later in Japan while he was working on Akira Kurosawa’s Dreams. Join me as I take a look into the production of Silence. This is not a review; this is what Silence teaches us about filmmaking.

One of my favourite movies of all time. But I understand that this movie is difficult to digest even for the more seasoned movie goers. So it seems natural that it didn't get much traction.

You can see Scorsese's love of the cinematic medium in every frame of his work. We are so lucky to have some really prolific filmmakers left who don't need to compromise their vision as much as many in the younger generation of filmmakers do.

Wait? Many filmmakers in the younger generation compromise their artistic integrity and vision? That couldn't be more wrong, especially today as we're about to hit another golden age of film. And many of the older generations compromised their artistic integrity more than today's filmmakers ever could or will.

As a Muslim, I thoroughly enjoyed this brilliant film; it was emotional, heart-wrenching, horrific, beautiful, and tragic. Although the story is told through a Catholic lens, I think it is applicable more universally to religious faith in general. The film can be interpreted as a metaphor for the struggle of traditional religious faith in a highly hostile, secular modern world. Far from any longer being able to stake a public claim, traditional religions must struggle against incredible odds to even continue to survive in the private sphere. Hats off to Mr. Scorsese!

Thanks for your perspective! I hadn't considered that interpretation, but it really makes sense.

I would tend to have a more forgiving look at the Japanese of this period. The Japanese looked at what happened to the Philippines being steamrolled by the Spanish who were there to supposedly "protect" the Christians. It might be better for them, politically, to crush the public display of Christian faith. Note that I say public. The entire Inquisitor office in this movie was shown to be practical rather than fanatical. They recognised that they could never truly change a man's belief. The act of stepping on an image if Jesus is like a loyalty test: "would you put your loyalty to the State before your loyalty to the faith". This question transcend religion and faith; it goes further: just swap faith for ethnicity, race, etc ... It was, like they kept saying "a formality". At the point of the show, the Inquisitor's office was very lenient, compared to the Jesuit priests' home kingdom's actions. During the Reconquista or Spanish Inquisition, they non-Christians had a choice of not converting and get burned on the stake or convert, get strangled to death, given a Christian burial, and supposedly go to Heaven. Compare that to a simple act of stepping on an image of Jesus (the act of making an image is variously thought as icon worship by different colours of Jews, Christians, and Muslims anyway) and you can get off, it's surprisingly lenient.

One of my favorite things about Scorsese is not his use of music (although he knows how to use some fucking good music) but rather his lack of music. The most emotional scenes or climax in many of his movie play with no music and minimal sound. This strips away any emotional manipulation and makes the moment seem so much more real. It makes it feel so much more powerful to me.

Great video as always! Pretty cool to see you do a 'What I Learned About Filmmaking' video on a recent release. HUGE SPOILERS BELOW I thought the film was great, but one of the few problems I had with it was that final shot you mention (the shot I assume Scorsese had been planning since Mean Streets). The beauty of the final act was that we didn't know whether Rodrigues has denounced God or not, and like your video mentioned, Scorsese and Garfield had plenty of discussions about the themes where they would conjure up more questions than answers. So it seemed totally incongruous to me to end the film with such a definite shot revealing Rodrigues' true colours in a film that was mostly about ambiguity and secrets. Maybe it's just me.

@RMVideos92 7 жыл бұрын

I definitely agree that the final act's brilliance lies in the ambiguity of Rodrigues' faith, especially in the scene where Kichijiro is taken away. Do you think perhaps the ending would have been stronger if Rodrigues had his hands closed in the casket in the final shot, so as just to suggest but not confirm he may have been holding the cross, or would you not have had the shot there at all?

@helloitsokay 7 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure. The shot it technically excellent but without the big reveal of the cross in his hands it would seem odd and out of place - you could argue it's the only 'god shot' in the whole film - but there is probably a way it could have been done with the ambiguity still intact.

I think my only criticism of this film is that while both the Japanese society and the Jesuits' Christianity of the time are well represented, they did little to show the cultural backgrounds of the Portuguese priests themselves. You know, the nuances beyond the obvious religious beliefs. Portugal was of the most religious countries in Europe, even considering 16th century Europe as a whole, or how Portugal was one of the countries that were the most aggressive or unwelcoming towards reformation for instance. I think that if the Jesuits emulated the actual Portuguese catholic/Jesuit culture and thinking of 16th century Portugal it could have conveyed more...substance? I think that's the word. But regardless, it is a very good film and I love it.

Another actor, Don Kenny (Garrpe), still resides here in Tokyo, and did kyogen for many years.

The film is leisurely paced. I like movies set or filmed in Japan.

I'm super interested in this content, but I'm sorry... I just had to turn it off after 30 seconds of that awful noise in the background. Why?? Anyways... best of luck, as I see you have plenty of subs who don't mind it.

You must be one of those Roman Catholics who wanted to keep the Catholic pedofiles safe and didn't want the priests to face justice.

This film is genuinely an experience that anyone should sit through. It doesn't just apply to Christians, but technically to anyone who has convictions about something. Why can't Christians support art instead of propaganda pieces of shit like God's not Dead????

Because real Christians understand that while God's Not Dead isn't a very good movie it's about real Christians and Silence is about a very cruel cult.

The Jesuits came to Japan, preaching great sermons, while secretly selling Japanese women and children as slaves abroad. So the Japanese goverment thought the Spain's Christianity is a dangerous religion. There is no way to talk about this movie without this premise.
