"Body and spirit will never be united. There must be a higher principle somewhere that makes art and behavior in harmony. That principle that happens to me is gone. The vast atmosphere is high up where there is no oxygen to fill the dead, where people must survive. Wearing a mask, my mind is laid-back, my mind is active, there is no movement, no sound, no memory. The enclosed cockpit and the outside space are like mind and body. Here I see the result of my last effort. Here silence is above...

The film is adapted from the personal life of Japanese right-wing writer Yukio Mishima. Paul Schrader analyzes the character of Yukio Mishima from four chapters: "beauty", "artistic activity", "action" and "unity of pen and sword". This film takes Yukio Mishima's experience on the last day of his life as the main line, and inserts some personal experiences. It presents the loneliness, paleness, and monotony of Yukio Mishima's spiritual world in black and white images. Childhood experiences have...

There are too many complaints. Is the uniform of the shield so ugly? Many details are different from the biography. Morita must win is not round at all. I feel that this movie is a lot of important events of Mishima and some plots of his important works. Tightly spliced together, it feels very bad. What's even more funny is that the subtitle team translated
into , "Shield Society" translated into "Protection Society",... -

This episodic structure is a bit disgusting, but it's really suitable for shooting Mishima. Full of postmodernism, the soundtrack is magnificent. The description that beauty is bad teeth is extremely accurate. Some people seek beauty, can this make a person eternal? Why do I keep thinking of Wang...

I was disappointed that Mishima-kun's incision was not actually shown at the end, and I waited for that scene with straight eyes. In contrast, I prefer "Worrying the...

A man who pursues purity with a naive attitude. Fanatical preaching did not pursue ideological control, but simply believed in spiritual appeal, which is why he became a harmless object of ridicule in the last moments of his...

The chapter returns to the asana life and returns to the owner of the work. Present, past, and memories unfold in three tones. The river-like soundtrack imbuing the tragic fate, the exquisite stage-based art set, gathered in the drum beat: the burning Golden Pavilion, the woman covered with bruises, the slowly rising sun that merged with the sea, and the undead. The understood, roaring righteous...

Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters quotes

Kashiwagi (segment "The Temple of the Golden Pavilion"): [stuttering] It was as s-small as this, but grew so big... it filled the world like... tremendous music. That's the p-p-power of beauty's eternity. It poisons us. It blocks out our lives.
Kashiwagi (segment "The Temple of the Golden Pavilion"): Please, enough of your pride! Beauty is like a rotten tooth. It rubs against your tongue, hurting, insisting on its importance. Finally you go to a dentist and have it pulled. Then you look at the small bloody tooth in your hand and say, "Is that all it was?" That's the way it is.
