The host's words at the end of the documentary "Towards the End of Life": "To think about how to leave the world is actually to think about how to live." Movie. "Desire to Live". The film comes from Akira Kurosawa's thoughts: "Sometimes I think about my own death, and this "Desire of Life" is the product of those thoughts." Today is gone forever. "How short life is, let a girl fall in love. Before the red lips fade, before the enthusiasm becomes cold, no one knows what will happen tomorrow, no one knows what will happen tomorrow; Before the hair fades, before the flame of love goes out, today is gone forever, today is gone forever...". This is a song that is used repeatedly in Kurosawa Akira Kui Shiming's "Desire to Live".

    "What have I done in the office for the past 30 years, I only remember being busy and boring.", "Busy and boring", isn't this the true portrayal of most jobs? Irony and tenderness go hand in hand. Haven't seen such a great movie in a long time...

Ikiru quotes

  • Novelist: That's not art. A striptease isn't art. It's too direct. It's more direct than art. That woman's body up there? It's a big juicy steak. It's a glass of gin. It's a hormone extract. Streptomycin. Uranium!

  • Kanji: [singing] Life is brief / Fall in love, maiden / Before the crimson bloom / Fades from your lips / Before the tides of passion / Cool within you / For those of you / Who know no tomorrow...
