Synopsis
Sometimes silence is the deadliest sound.

Writing about movies is hard lol, writing about Silence is hell.At the ripe age of 22 I still don't know where I stand on religion, I just have a lot of opinions on it that nobody wants to hear about. But what I'm trying to say is I feel like with a film like this, a film as subtly extreme and exhausting as this, your view on religion is going to impact how you take in this movie. Which is why I think the most impressive part about Silence, aside from how it looks, is the objectivity of it, I think. It's taking you in with open arms and dragging you through a whole lot of honesty. Brutal ass honesty. I did a lot more thinking than I did feeling with this one and I'll definitely be coming back to it some day. Yet another classic gangster film from the one and only Martin Scorsese!

"Those five in the pit are suffering too, just like Jesus, but they don't have your pride. They would never compare themselves to Jesus. Do you have the right to make them suffer? I heard the cries of suffering in this same cell. And I acted."
I remember it vividly; like a memory still lingering fresh in the mind. It was my first time attending the sacrament of reconciliation, and I was just as nervous as the many other students lined up in waiting for their turn at the confessional. One by one, people entered and exited the booth with a degree of rebellion and solemnity. It eventually dawned on me that my time had arrived, and taking a…

"Go on, then, Rodrigues, pray. But pray with your eyes open."
I remember reading a review of this when it came out that dismissively compared it to Shinoda's original adaptation, arguing that Scorsese's emphasis on Endo's rumination on faith came at the expense of the novel's critiques of colonialism. It struck me as a blinkered, surface-level reading of the film then; now, it seems downright oblivious. Scorsese has worked with strong scripts for so much of his career, but he communicates visually, one of the few filmmakers who can shoot impressionistically and expressionistically with equal skill. It is hard to ignore how both Rodrigues and especially Garupe recoil at every Japanese person who approaches them, instinctively afraid even though nearly…

This is, for me, one of Scorsese's best ever works, if not THE best. Few filmmakers have ever explored spirituality in such a compelling and complex manner. Truly astonishing, and even better on second viewing.

The single most overlooked and underrated Scorsese
Brutal and thought provoking doesn’t even come close to describe Silence
Just the way it’s shot on location with the most beautiful looking sets is more than enough to etch this movie in my mind like a stone carving scriptures into the wall
Career best performances from everyone involved and just the absolute highest sincerity of approach to this type of theme
Marty, you’re a gift

Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver further prove they are two of the most convincing and diverse actors today. Unlike Hacksaw Ridge, in my opinion, the faith in this film was handled beautifully and very respectfully. I absolutely adored Silence.
