real reality doesn't make sense
After watching a two-hour movie, I saw the faces of the male and female protagonists a handful of times, and other times they were telling stories in the range of medium shots to large panoramas. Moreover, even in close-up, the actor's expression is very restrained, and it is no different from watching the scenery. This sense of distance, this kind of viewing experience, is really not used to it.
With natural light and live sound, the film is realistic in both subject matter and...

Watching "The Eel", I don't know whether to laugh or cry, a tragicomedy, I can only say this, after the male protagonist Yamashita killed his wife, he whistled to the police station and surrendered. Can't laugh or cry. Eight years later, Yamashita was released on parole, opened a barber shop, and rescued Guizi who committed suicide by taking sleeping pills. Guizi helped in the barber shop out of gratitude. From then on, the movie entered the theme, and I, the audience, were forgetting that...

The movie's promotional poster is a woman's warm smiling face, which is warm enough, but as Zhang Yuan said: "The world is cruel, and the movie is happy." The film "Eel" tells cruelty in peace.
If you read the beginning of "The Eel", you will understand what a mask is and what a hypocrisy is. The wife is preparing the lunch box for her husband when fishing, how tender, how good the love is, OK, you can stop, and then look at her "heart and drip" animal adultery,...

That year, I was the first year of junior high school, and you were senior year. You study civil engineering at Urban Construction for two reasons. First, you can directly arrange a job after graduation; second, you are very good at drawing. I still remember one summer when I went to your house for summer vacation, you would take a ladder every evening and climb to the roof of your bungalow to study. I went down the ladder to find you, and sat next to you to watch the train in the...

Eel - a ridiculous and gritty survival
The distortion and absurdity of human nature are, to a certain extent, just like the smooth snake-shaped body of an eel, crouching and waiting for an opportunity.
Does that letter really exist? Or is it your own fantasy?
Betrayed by his wife, he has long trusted others. He talks to the eel to comfort the loneliness.
The long fish tank, under the dim light, glowed with ghostly blue light. He stared straight at the eel, and gradually, he burrowed into the water, turned into a...

I've finished watching the film and haven't found the red socks... Then I had to ask the people from the raw materials for the answer → [Kitamura, Tama Central Office の police officer, A service]. A passer-by who doesn't even have a line... 嘤夘嘤... The plot is very in line with the bitter face of Koji Koji of the Kouyakusho....

7.7 When such a beginning appears, the expectations for the follow-up plot of the movie will naturally be greatly increased, as if all the great possibilities of the movie will be presented, but it seems that if there is light, there will be no surprise and shock brought by Peach Blossom Spring, but it is deliberate and...

The style is obvious, and the cruel world of adults is still the animal paradise of Imamura Shohei. After the official opening of the story, several scenes in the decoration of the barber shop are familiar. Maybe I saw the beginning when I was in class, but I couldn't finish it when I was in school. It must be the result of being unable to study at that age. The ending is sunny and...
Jiro Nakajima: Is it bad to have such rumors about a guy on parole?
Takuro Yamashita: An eel's all a man needs.
