Do we have to be either good or bad

I heard the news on television yesterday the new version of the classic novel Journey to the West, saying that since the author has been criticized for this show so that viewers have even tried to organize a demonstration against him. One of the most devastating have been identified by the people is the story of a love story between the Monkey King and Lady White Bone (I found this funny translation of Bai Gu Jing online, the first glance reminded me of Lady Gaga, after all, both) have a unique aesthetic style in their clothing. Personally, I've never seen this new version of the journey to the West, some people may think that I know of no right to judge, in front of me really show me exactly. But if we are only the idea of a friend of Monkey King and the lucky girl who happens to be white Bone Lady, I do not see quite as something negative.

First, Monkey King to find a friend is certainly not a new idea. I remember a joke told many years ago, when Steven Spielberg collaboration with Zhang Yi Lu towards the West movie, the first question, Zhang Spielberg will have to ask: How many girlfriends have a monkey?While the joke ITSA, but offers a humanistic perspective on the nature of the Monkey King, except that as Superman. Secondly, I found people are pretty tough with the selection of the White Lady bone to be lucky girl. In a bloody battle, the design of Venus, the transition is indeed dramatic. But it is impossible?

People tend to see things in black or white, you can recognize easily for us. But not using this kind of attitude is definitely good for us to truly appreciate the complexity of our species. In an era of Agatha Christie, the question is, in crime fiction is always: Who is guilty? Given that, in modern times, we have one more: Why he / she must do. The why part is more important than that, because the hero is one hundred percent can carry a terrible act for a good cause while a devil is capable of doing something beneficial for selfish reasons. On the other hand, is always a hero, not a hero, a hero was born in May with a demon, then it is likely that the devil hero before. You do not have to be good or bad, however, we can not, because both of us. As the main character white bone, regardless of its importance as a person who has no heart, if he should see a soft side. It was a lover can be located, or a parent caring for an unfulfilled dream. Anyone can love to do good or evil.
