The contrast between the two characters, a dying old man who has been mummified for thirty years, and a young girl who bravely jumped out of the boring cycle. The excessively noisy loneliness of the first night of the old man's indulgence was extremely evident in the scene where a group of men and women danced. The whole film belongs to a big proposition, discussing the meaning of life. Borrowing the perfunctory and inaction of work within the system to express the pursuit of a meaningful life. Seeing the filth of the world, there is still a sincere core.
Akira Kurosawa is very ambitious in the film, trying to express the ignorance of the public, the estrangement between relatives, the helplessness of life, and the dirtyness of politics. But what impresses me the most is the choice of life. Maybe solve this problem and the other problems above will be solved.
What are we looking for all our lives. How to live your own life. What a big proposition, I still have no solution to this at the age of 30.
Is living in someone else's heart still alive? Does it make sense to commit to a cause that benefits others?
Can you be at forty without confusion...hey
