Both the narrative style and the propositions of "Sheng き る" are very moving
. The film penetrates into the hearts of the characters from the inside, and focuses on the Japanese society after World War II from the outside
. Wind Man puts the sense of chaos in the moment of facing death. The actor who learned that he was suffering from cancer at the end of the stage has transitioned from the utter pain to the struggles of wanting to have fun and looking for youth, and finally has a self-consciousness. So for a group of women and children, Belie contended with the bureaucracy of public institutions. In the film, Wind Man has repeatedly emphasized that this self-consciousness in the face of death requires strong willpower and faces irretrievable loneliness

090321 I liked the first part very much before the funeral. Although it is a Japanese story, no matter the rhythm, characters, shots, and even the music, it has the style of American film noir, and it writes the death and life of people and the death of the system in both directions. But it was too protracted from the beginning of the funeral. The length of two and a half hours is not within my aesthetic length.

[China Film Archive Kurosawa Akira Film Festival] 4K restoration version. The first half shows the dying person's longing for life and vitality, and the second half turns abruptly, using a technique similar to "Citizen Kane", using the memories of the supporting characters to piece together the last struggle and persistence of the protagonist's life. The ingenuity is praised by the festival. This is not only a critical reality masterpiece that satirizes the mediocre bureaucracy, but also an elegy for a good man who praises the good and the great. Thought-provoking and touching!

Toyo: What help am I?
Kanji: You - just to look at you makes me feel better. It warms this - this mummy's heart of mine. And you're so kind to me. No; that's not it. You're so young, so healthy. No; that's not it either... You're so full of life. And me... I'm jealous of that. If I could be like you for just one day before I died. I won't be able to die unless I can do that. I want to do *something*. Only you can show me. I don't know what to do. I don't know how. Maybe you don't know either, but, please... if you can... show me how to be like you!

Novelist: That's not art. A striptease isn't art. It's too direct. It's more direct than art. That woman's body up there? It's a big juicy steak. It's a glass of gin. It's a hormone extract. Streptomycin. Uranium!
