In the late 16th century Europe was in the grip of a ferocious witch hunt, where thousands were tortured and burnt at the stake. The church was fully behind this terrifying crusade against the imaginary enemies of Christianity. In France and Germany alone up to 40,000 people may have been killed as witches. But England and Scotland were almost untouched by witch persecutions until King James himself decided to launch his own, personal war on witchcraft.
In 1597 King James VI of Scotland published 'Daemonology', a handbook on how to recognise and destroy, witches. The book explored the threat that 'those Detestable slaves of the Devil', posed to James himself. It fuelled waves of witch hunting throughout Britain.
The legacy of James' 'Daemonology' continued throughout the 17th century, and led to the torture and execution of hundreds of women in a series of infamous witch trials. No-one knows exactly how many men and women died in these trials, such as the Pendle trial of 1612, or how many others were killed in cases that never came to court. The documentary reveals the purges in many areas of Britain drew directly on King James' book. Also for the first time, remarkable new archaeological evidence from Cornwall, suggests that witchcraft was actively practiced for centuries, even during the most intense periods of witch-hunting. Experimental archaeologist Jacqui Wood has excavated strange pits lined with swan's feathers, and filled with animal skins and human remains. She believes the pits were ritual offerings inspired by witchcraft beliefs.
3.5吧 下载好几天了 昨晚终于看了 这种催眠类型的片子 不能晚上看 还是要下午看 能理解女主那种孤独而骄傲的独居 但是这样的主题说实话 挺多同类型的
居无定所、安居乐业、游牧民、西部开拓者……从美国传统来看，有些灵魂是注定“被流浪”的。当一类矛盾与民族性紧密关联时，它的化解本身就是矛盾了。
她的无助、孤独，都随着内心对大自然的吸收而逐渐消散，即使同住的人不在了，依旧能回到最初的平静和幸福。赵婷，不简单。
平淡却不平庸，简约却不简单，大象无形，减法的处理刚刚好。摈弃猎奇和冲突，却深切感受到导演走进并了解了这个游牧民群体。围绕着女主对爱人和生活方式的执念，最后跟游牧民领头人的一番掏心交流，给本片的主旨做了一个回甘诠释。
我们灿若星河
想看这部现象级电影很久了，刚看完忽而发觉今天是妇女节。美丽的意外。
人有多种活法，选择自己喜欢的方式就好。别人能不能理解你的孤独，不重要。
赵婷导演非常稳啊，完成度相当高，影像很扎实。这电影手法现代，也很美国。前半段很碎的剪辑，节奏拉快，夹杂着动人心魄的自然长镜头，能看到一些泰伦斯马力克，后半段慢下来，其实总体社会议题谈的不多，更多还是对人精神、情感层面的探讨和挖掘，诸如生活的意义，人生选择（人是本性和环境的混合产物，环境、人生际遇发生骤变，有人回避，有人妥协，有人直面，有人遵从本心），何处才是我们真正的归宿。科恩嫂表演绝对一流。配乐确实铺的略满，基调上苍凉感可能不够。看好夺奥斯卡BP或directing ！
拒绝港湾，回到最初梦碎的地方，然后再转身继续走下去。真正的公路片。
3-2 等不到电影院上映了，所以直接下载看了（结果后来导演又被cancel）。看完之后才后知后觉电影的余味，就真的是无依无靠到处流浪，年老力衰没有金钱，子女也在他们自己的世界里好好生活着。
Simply brilliant. Breathtaking.
偶然摧折或自然地老去
是我记忆里最在路上的电影了，像候鸟一样的离别与相逢。没有在时代而是归结在个人上找到一些本质的原因，也算是讨巧的地方吧。但如果没有办法深入谈一些时代群像的东西，可能对于这个这么好的题材来说，观众确实很难满意。
Simply brilliant. Breathtaking.
祝贺赵婷。讲点电影外的，那些人争执的国籍或者自豪感什么的，不过是自卑+民粹。
苍天明眸有时过于灼热
观影过程如同全程把额头靠在冰凉的车窗上，看着沿途的人，荒地和山脉，一动不动，一言不发。有时玻璃上晕了呼吸的水汽，就用手掌擦擦。
我也不是一无所有，我会整理好自己的行囊继续前进。
3.具有相似性：t house、断舍离
一处悬崖下有上百个燕子窝，燕子飞来飞去倒映在水中，那一刻彷佛我和燕子一起飞翔。如果心是一片旷野，活着便为了这样的瞬间。（再次，她不叫科恩嫂，她叫Frances McDormand
