    The flirtatious devil who eats flowers, who is in love at first sight wearing a forbidden color, that kiss, the whole world...

    It's amazing, whether it's camera movement, scheduling, performance or music, complex textures. The standard of a good movie (there is no one) is a long aftertaste. There may be countless paths of understanding, and I was mainly moved by Lawrence and Takeshi Kitano, how relatively normal two people navigate themselves in chaos and fury. The critique is directed at the distorted power relations from the East and the West at the same time, and the extreme value it has reached in the...

    Two couldn't help crying, the first was when David Bowie kissed Sakamoto until Sakamoto cut his hair, and the second was when Kitano Takeshi, who finally shaved his head, said Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence to Lawrence. This quiet power is one of the best WWII films in my...

    A bit like Rossellini, the dislocated soundtrack and the weird tonality are reminiscent of Sokolov's "The Sun", which uses the generation of specific realistic situations, the abstraction of characters and images, and the occasional divinity to bridge the cracks in logic ( But still reservations about the whole, to see later). A "love" and a pair of witnesses, an impossible secret community, the core of which is the doubt of "correctness", the confrontation between the original perception of...

    Due to the too quiet atmosphere, I watched it several times and didn't finish it, but I know this is a good movie and shouldn't become a red...

    The two music masters in the east and west unexpectedly meet in the film: Ryuichi Sakamoto composed the ending song for the film, "Forbidden Color", and Bowie's leading a cappella in the camp is also pleasant to the ears, although Bowie can only be ranked second male at most based on the role in the film. In the North American release, he ranked first when the film's first cast and subtitles appeared: the theater was obviously considering the box office, which also confirmed Bowie's appeal in...

    It’s okay to be handsome, it’s okay to sing and write songs, and it’s okay to write as a world-class master, and it’s okay to learn to act in movies, and it’s okay to act so well. Let mortals...

    3 hours after watching the movie: So sad...and heartbroken.../ It's been 14 hours since I watched the movie, and I'm still immersed in this kind of heartbreak that I don't know which scene, sentence or plot.....

    David Bowie is full of devastating beauty, Sakamoto Ryuichi is also quite amazing, and Uncle Kitano would still laugh back then. The analysis of the difference between Eastern and Western values, the last "merry christmas mr lawrence" was...

    I watched it in memory of Nagisa Oshima, I didn't know much about the movie before. When I watched it last night, I felt that the plot and narrative were not exciting, much worse than the sensory world. As a result, when I just wanted to play Samsung, I looked at the cast list... Kitano Takeshi, Sakamoto Ryuichi, David Bowie... and they are all debuts! ! A mouthful of blood vomited on the computer screen, and it was directly...
