The editing is gripping, and the social problems in post-war Japan are portrayed penetratingly
"Wild Dog" truly amazes me, and it is indeed the work of Akira Kurosawa. The editing of this 1949 film is very exciting, and it depicts the social problems of post-war Japan thoroughly. The hot and anxious atmosphere of the whole film makes people feel the same. The lines in it are "Maggots will grow in dirty places", "There are no bad people in the world, only bad environments", "I don't know how many times I have seen a living person become a beast for a very simple reason" "Society is It's...

Taking gun hunting as the main line, it outlines the social status quo of post-war Japan, where people at the bottom are living in difficult lives and the economic situation is not optimistic. The so-called "post-war faction" was born, and the social background did cause the growth of crime. People confined to the legal framework lived a miserable life, but criminals were free. But after all, it was himself who made the choice. He was also stolen on the train. Murakami made the choice to be...

I don't like watching too many movies in a day, I feel that it is too late to "clear my mouth" and my mind will become dizzy. But after watching Wild Dog, I regret not watching Heaven and Hell together.
A real master, it's really comfortable to watch, there's nothing pretentious at all, what he sees is life, every character's laughter and tears are abundant, the habitual thief lies down and looks at the starry sky without any scruples, and the young man living in the broken wooden...

There is no bad environment, only worse options
I am not a literary person, let alone a lover of movies. I once thought that watching movies was a waste of emotion and time; The number of movies watched is the sum of my past 2 years. And the person who changed all this is a person who has passed away - Akira Kurosawa.
On the surface, this film is about a novice police detective who accidentally lost his pistol and recovered it all the way. In essence, it tells the story of people's desires and choices. The best story is...

Wild Dogs (1949), the ninth film by Japanese director Akira Kurosawa. The following year, he became known internationally for Rashomon. Wild Dogs is often referred to as a detective or film noir. Akira Kurosawa said that the film was influenced by Jules Dassin's noir film "The City That Never Sleeps" (1948). Despite the appearance of a detective film, the film is more about the pain of Japanese society after World War II, and the different fates of people in a "bad social...

The post-war background is mixed with evil and good, and there are always happy chapters under the conflict and calm. At least in Kurosawa's view, the future will be bright, but it will inevitably experience a lot of inner monologue-like struggle. ps, whether director Hitchcock's "The Train Strangers" has any reference to this...

After Sato's debut, the plot is getting better! Some principles still apply today. For criminals, the police do not need sympathy, and the psychology of the criminals is left to the novelist to figure out (Sato said that emmm is both a post-war faction, Murakami and Yuzuo are taking diametrically opposite paths - people have to choose for themselves Pay the price instead of blaming the environment for the crime. Alas, people's livelihood is really hard after the...

Akira Kurosawa's film language is really particular, such as looking around the station to recognize the criminal, such as the female pickpocket looking up at the starry sky, such as the criminal who gave up resistance and saw the beauty in life that he had forgotten in his life. At this time, a group of children sang The songs have gone through... They are both refreshing and...

Det. Ichikawa: You know this guy, don't you?
Ogin: Who knows? At my age, I've stopped noticing handsome young men.
Det. Ichikawa: You're slippery as the eels on the menu here.
Det. Ichikawa: Help him out. The guy's just a greenhorn. Listen, mess with a rookie and you'll be sorry later.
Ogin: I don't know. You're violating my civil rights.
Det. Ichikawa: Awfully stylish language, there.
Ogin: I can do better than that.
Det. Ichikawa: Like what?
Ogin: Bye-bye.
Ogin: Look, how pretty that is. In the last 20 years, I've completely forgotten how wonderful the stars are.
