"Dear Gold"
'Everything in the world is guilty and live with confidence' Osamu Dazai
A story of revenge after a child-killing beauty is released from prison.
A story of revenge and self-redemption.
My favorite is the mass murder scene. Even if there is no redemption, the rest of his life will bear more. Never forgive.
Yuan Yuan "Why do they all choose to commit crimes themselves instead of handing the criminals over to the police?"
"Because they saw with their own eyes the picture of the child being killed by the teacher. They have no choice. The only outlet for hatred is the knife."
Exaggerated red eyeshadow heels. Snow-white tofu, psychedelic small space. In fact, I don't like movies that are too symbolic, stripped of the sense of reality. It's more like the director's obscene revenge ritual. But that's exactly what the director needs. Let the audience stand at the best distance to appreciate the artwork and think about this religious proposition. ——The mistakes made can never be made up. (The golden fingers are cut off, and it can't be alleviated a little.) We are awake to sin, and we walk forward on the cross bearing our sins consciously. Unforgivable stupid human who yearns for redemption so much. Please be gentler with yourself.
Jin Zi couldn't forgive himself in the end, but still got the hug (salvation) of the angel (daughter). Some mistakes can never be made up, but we still have to do everything we can. Then bear the crime and punishment, and live with hope (Kaneko's little boyfriend, reunion with her daughter).
I like the narrative structure, color, and poetry of the film. As if looking at the religious frescoes in the dome of the church, a fable of self-salvation.
