I just closed the website (a film that is hard to find, banned everywhere, I managed to find it on a relatively partial website), and now I can't even remember the names of the hero and heroine (forgive me, Japanese The name is really hard to remember, it took me a year to memorize Takuya Kimura's name), but Nakagawa's smiling face, that old photo of Kawada, Mr. Kitano Takeshi (I must forgive me for using the actor's real name, the real name is better Note) The way he eats a cookie... These pictures make me feel very shocked, which is also the reason why this film shakes people's hearts!
Before watching the movie, I was afraid that I couldn't bear it, so I couldn't help but read a small film review. It said that there was a scene where Mr. Kitano Takeshi gave Nakagawa an umbrella and said to Nakagawa, "Be careful of catching a cold!" The joke, I was very sad when I saw it. Mr. Kitano Takeshi is actually a very bitter adult. The setbacks in the workplace and the indifference of his family make him look down on himself, so he always feels that he is looked down upon by others. He made this arrangement for the students to kill each other. , seems only to claim his existence. The scene where the hero kills him at the end makes me sympathize with him. Even if the hero doesn't shoot, he still wants to kill himself! After answering his daughter's call, he calmly took out the last cookie in his life from the box: "This cookie, it's delicious..." Then he died quietly. He never knew how to vent his anger and dissatisfaction, making him hate the world and everyone around him. Only Nakagawa made him feel a little bit warm in his heart. When he walked towards Nakagawa, he wanted to open up. gun? Still want to embrace the last bit of warmth in his world...
Will Kawada (probably the second male lead) shoot at the hero and heroine? I never doubted him from start to finish. If only one person survives this slaughter, it must not be him. He is too affectionate and righteous, and is willing to sacrifice himself to fulfill the happiness of others. Kawada was too persistent and joined this battle royale just to find an answer - his girlfriend Keiko, who participated in the last battle with him, said thank you to him and left him with a smile before he died. He couldn't let go. In the end, he was lying on the fishing boat covered in bruises. It was the moment when his life was about to end, but it was also the happiest moment for him. He told Nakagawa: "I finally understand Keiko's smile at that time. Thank you... I can finally be friends with you. "Although it was a brutal massacre, it also gave him the most important thing.
The heroine Noriko Nakagawa is really eye-catching in this play. Her eyes and her smile make people feel the purity of "there is blood and blood around, but she dances alone in this blood", her simplicity and love It is the theme of this film, and now thinking of her smiling face, my tears are a bit uncontrollable. She has gone through almost every slaughter, but from the beginning to the end, she has never fired a shot or hurt anyone. She has always been a healer. No matter how dirty the place is, she still maintains her original self. . She dreamed that she was walking by the river with Mr. Kitano (maybe she was the only one among all the students who tried to understand the murderer's mood), she sympathized with Mr. Kitano, she spoke to the teacher, smiled, she told the teacher this The beauty that exists in the world... On the fishing boat, she looked back at the bloody island: "It's so beautiful! Although there are so many horrible memories." Although there are so many horrible pasts, these can never be stopped Live her longing for freedom and peace. In her smiling face, we can always find what is missing in our hearts.
In the film of less than two hours, the scenes of the death of forty-two people (including Qiuya's father) were filled. I imagined it should be a very violent and dark drama, but after watching it, it made me feel unusually calm. The love and righteousness between people, the darkest doubts in people's hearts, the most tortured loneliness in life, the most crazy excitement, and the most easily lost self... in this scene of death It unfolded quietly, and the director was like a psychiatrist, explaining it with blood and some peaceful words. "Battle Royale" - one of my favorite films, and I think it will still be a film that will make me feel emotional when I talk about it years later.
