If it weren't for the image of the gust of wind
On the stage of the theater, the characters wander
switch screen
Monologue (confession) to state the case
Cloud meets tense drums
Shadow of leaves flashing figure struggling solemn face
The fast-moving footage also has a real substitution of wobbles
Medium shot of two people chasing after the shaking shot
Fierce women are cruel
absent questioner
The slain who is always silent in the secondary narrative (because he always exists in other people's stories)
Motif narrative: wife kills husband, robber kills husband
Akutagawa Ryunosuke's Opposition to Narrative, Against Structured Narrative, Against Authentic Language
Is it true what the dead husband said?
The wind rises, the soul rises.
hideous soul
Forgive who? Are robbers pure evil? What is the wife? What is a husband?
big still sweat
(self-confessed narrative
Abandoned woman's self-narrative --
So the self-narration of the two men is nothing but an attempt to restore their dignity
As a result, sin will come to everyone, and no one can be blamed.
And the tall, determined woman ended it all.
The noble and fierce fight ended in a clumsy farce.
The funny thing is that this narrative is also dispelled. Great.
The last story is the saddest
Looking down at the long shot - ironic; looking up at the close up shot - sincerity
What do you think is true? What do you think is good? Do you think you are upholding justice? Do you think your soul is saved? Do you think the eyes of compassion can really light up the world?
But what do you think, how much do you think you think?
