The Brave (1997)
10/10
a new arrangement with the devil or Faustus
25 July 2004
Raphaël is an indian. (Johnny Stepp). His family is without any money. A sort of devil (Marlon Brando)seems to like tortures and die of the indians. It's a terrific thing when we know how He did for the Indians. When this old big devil wants with $50,000 the death of Raphël (the same name that the angel)we can't to think to his daughter (Cheyenne)who suicided on 1985. During this strange deal Brando dare quotations of Jesus: "Give to Cesar what is due to him and to God what is due to God!" In this sequence of the picture we can found the misery of the indians territories like the evil of the human condition.The name of Raphaël is suggesting the bible book of the Angel Raphaël who helps Tobias. "El" means God in Hebrew. We may consider this picture as a parabal where we are each other victims or devils. It's an opinion, no more
