Real and frightening, the copulation, killing, nibbling and nesting among wild animals reflects the survival essence of human primitive society, that is, all behaviors are only to meet the most primitive and barbaric physiological needs. The village can be regarded as a microscopic and primitive feudal society, and "sex" in it, as the lowest demand in Maslow's hierarchy theory, is only a tool for venting primitive desires and establishing one's own gender consciousness (for details, refer to...

In this way, the director shows the cruelty and madness of nature's law of surviving the fittest artificially in front of the world, without any emotional tendencies, but only to show that at certain moments, there is no difference between humans and animals. The act of entering Nara Mountain and waiting for death, who abandoned his old age in essence for survival, actually took on a hint of sacredness under the calm and stable demeanor of the old woman in the midst of the heavy snow. Shohei...

Even better than the '58 version, the last half hour up the mountain was so...

In an isolated mountain village, people follow conventions to arrange their own lives, and various behaviors contrary to civilized society occur here every day, running through from life to death. In the life logic created by the film, things contrary to it actually happen from time to time. Therefore, it is conceivable that this isolated place may be the true appearance of a civilized society after it has been stripped of its coat. It's all about keeping life going, it's the most...

All life points to death, and all death is for life. People really seem to be inferior to animals in this place. Every time the animal shots, I want to vomit, and in the end I want to vomit and cry. Can't believe that this film was planned to be edited and released in China? Well, we must condemn the evil capitalism, where people cannibalize people and animals cannibalize people. Slightly look forward to the Kinoshita Keisuke...

Movies you don’t want to rewatch. After the white snow covering the panorama melted in the opening scene, the vision began to become messy and filthy, which also opened the prelude to the display of this unmanned spectacle. The most shocking thing is not that they did these things, but that they did it so sparsely that they didn't show any struggle. I like the interspersed of animal scenes, which means that the absence of human nature is no different from snakes, rats, and animals. At the end,...

It's not erotic, it's purely a tragedy. How to spend this hungry life is a big...

Nara yóu in ancient books refers to a kind of soft-textured tree that takes tussah fire in autumn. ——"Zhou Li·Xia...

In order to survive, anything is okay. It is okay to give birth to a child and throw it away to death, to bury the whole family alive, or to carry the old man to death by cold and starve. Blame? This is a remake of a film from the 1950s by Imamura Shohei. I think if this tradition is true, it is not necessarily the original version of Jin Yong's...

very scary! Life and death, gods, ghosts, and beasts, unmanned sex, mating, sprouting, snake, rat, eagle, bird, rabbit, vulture, Japan, Japan, Imamura Shohei! Contemporary civilized society cannot understand ancient ignorance, just as future children cannot understand our thinking today. Watch...
