    The expressions on Luohan's faces are different. Those who have not experienced the world seem to be comical, while those who have experienced vicissitudes have seen all the joys and sorrows of the world. The film is still very artisan, except for the individual plots that feel a bit too coincidental, both the plot concept and the movie viewing experience are excellent. The only puzzle is that the film used Tanaka silk, who was nearly fifty at the time, to play the heroine's life since she was...

    The beauty Mizoguchi wanted to show was probably formal, or something closer to another representation such as a puppet show, if there was one. Although the camera can be seen moving, but the plot with empty settings is really unintentional. I finally understood the truth of what Oshima-san said without...

    One of the 60th anniversary festivals of Cinefan Mizoguchi, Hong Kong Science Museum. The two scenes where mother and son meet were filmed really well. So the pursuit of true love is the beginning of the unfortunate fate of women. Is this a comment under Mizoguchi? The opening scene extends from the background of A-Chun to the prostitutes selling spring on both sides of the street. A-Chun is like watching his lost youth and can only look...

    The use of empty lenses and the scheduling of indoor space are very charming. The dramatic condensed life of a woman satisfies my imagination of the Japanese style in the feudal era. The costumes and movements of the characters are very classically beautiful. But why am I so bored, I never felt that way when I watched Akira Kurosawa, too many still shots, weekend...

    The life of a woman who was persecuted by insects and ghosts. A noble girl, seduced by a man with so-called true love, a liar, originally wanted to seduce her to run away, but it was revealed, this thing knew the consequences of the exposure and said a lot of nonsense (punishing him by beheading is the only advisable thing, at least not. Like some "criticized women who have been abused by domestic violence"), the lord's horses ran to the market and harassed the women like picking goods, and...

    The film is adapted from Ihara Nishizuru's literary masterpiece "Lady Generation". This kind of theme depicting the happy scene of Edo is naturally suitable for Mizoguchi Kenji, who is lingering. Mizoguchi Kenji also made a drastic adaptation based on the original work, changing the private sexual demands of women into the theme of social oppression and objectification of women that he is best at, presenting a tragic epitome of women in the shogunate period, thereby focusing on criticizing the...

    The subject matter is very similar to Zheng Zhengqiu's Zhang Shichuan's social film, and it also has a deep inner description. This should be criticized in the period of the left-wing movement, because it is purely present and not "revolutionary". Of course, no one can match Mizoguchi's long mirror like a picture...
