    Akira Kurosawa's final film is much gentler. The love between teachers and students is so pure, which is very touching. This kind of film can well represent the Japanese nationality of respecting teachers and respecting Taoism. The group play is really wonderful. Although all the characters are male as far as the eyes can see, the gentleness and kindness of the teacher's wife, neither humble nor arrogant, still overshadows everyone's...

    The bottle of wine at the end of the film was drunk with the crew in Japan. That night was the eve of the filming. The next day only had a few cutscenes I added at the end and reshoots by the beach. The task difficulty was almost zero, so everyone was so drunk that they had to take them home. Snacks and wine were also brought out. When I saw it, I immediately thought of this passage, which was very unforgettable. This film tells the story of an old professor's retirement. It would be much...

    It is a very far-reaching film with a literati flavor. The first half is great. The actors' performances are very lively and lively, reminiscent of the night banquet of fellow villagers in "Flowers on the Sea", and the cat is slightly collapsed in the back. Chaos vs. Shadow Dancers, Heaven and Hell vs. Evil Man’s Sweet Dreams, August Rhapsody vs. Curly Sunset Love, it seems that Akira Kurosawa’s movies are all paired together, and one style needs to be shot twice to be enjoyable. Notes: No...

    Madadayo, is the title of the film, and it is also what the old professor said the most in the film - the end (nothing). At the last birthday banquet, the old professor said to the children with uneasy confidence: You must find the thing you like the most, then keep it in your heart, and work hard all your life... This year, Kurosawa is 83, the god of destiny Asked if he was ready, Kurosawa gave the answer with the action of...

    The retirement life of an old German professor that began at the end of World War II. Interestingly, the old professor posted at home and verbally declared that he did not like "visitors". Does the visitor here refer to the US military? American soldiers came to inspect when they were gathering, smiled and left. The old professor taught in a boys' school. He directed the collective chorus during several gatherings, including the students who respectfully served him in his retired life....

    Professor Uchida's open-minded attitude towards death is admirable, one of my favorite teacher images in the...

    The last film directed by Akira Kurosawa is faithfully adapted from the diary of the famous Japanese literary master Uchida Baiken. The camera and editing are not as forceful as in the past, but give people the feeling of a more natural presentation. It may be because of Akira Kurosawa's works in his 80s. The only drawback is that he has too much insight into life, like an educational film. . Very...

    The scene of the four seasons in the second room of the old man and his wife is really beautiful. When I watched this drama, I always thought, in fact, the greatest sense of honor in the profession of a teacher is that you have cultivated some excellent students, and they have always been proud of you and passed on your spirit. . . I hope that when I am old, I can still have the time to be remembered by the students, so I have no...

    The curtain call of the Japanese emperor-level director [Kurosawa Akira]. On the "Teacher's Day" today, I specially selected this movie about the life of a "retired teacher" in his twilight years. While watching the movie, I couldn't help but sigh: Japan is really a nation that "respects teachers and respects Taoism"! ? ——The most touching thing in the whole film should be that no matter natural or man-made disasters, Uchida Baixian's wife always depends on him; the montage of the two of them...
