2/ "Have you tried your best for this "why"? 3/ "
Is this "why" of yours valuable to others? "
After watching this film, I couldn't help but ask questions. From the first two minutes of watching this film, I knew that this was a work that I needed to watch seriously, because it actually involved the one I've been asking myself all this time. Question (I didn't watch the basic introduction of the movie beforehand, I just came here for the title, and of course the scene on the swing that I love.)
The first thing that impresses me in my mind is the screenwriter, which is to put the individual to life The interrogation of meaning reveals the individual's reprimand and irony against the government bureaucracy, and at the same time it can even bring out the common family relationship problems in Japan, integrating the three major themes. The fake "Mummy" civil servant is connected.
As soon as the director opened the scene, he told the audience that the protagonist, Xian Sen, had a mortal disease, and if he was cured, it would be in vain. However, I didn't expect that Akira Kurosawa would really ask this deep question so straightforwardly.
[The first question, how much do you lively write? ]
When this "clean heart and few desires", "uniformity" and "restricted restraint" can be called a boring and stupid section chief who has spent 4/5 of his life in vain, when he knows that he is about to die (so miserable, he has to be deprived by a stupid doctor) the chance of knowing the true remaining life time), the first thing he let go of was selfishness. Spending money, playing games, drinking, singing and dancing, women's pornography, the director arranged for a writer to "lead" the section chief to "experience a life of pleasure". As a result, before the end of his life, the section chief became more and more indulgent, but only had a more sinful emptiness. Because that short-lived happiness cannot fill a long life (note the change in the writer's expression when he finally returned to the car, the director is good at choosing people, and only the long face with a clear profile can express compassion and guilt in the dim light and shadow But love can't help it). Is the indulgence of personal desires the same as the meaning of life? Who wouldn't indulge, indulgence is the easiest thing to do, but indulgence for your own pleasure is very selfish, and the director obviously has more feelings than this indulgence.
So, the section chief stopped every night and turned to find a little fresh meat full of vitality, energy and curiosity, and wanted to get a breath of living from her. However, it is always hers, and you can't steal it unless you realize where your vitality comes from. Therefore, the scene of Happy Birthday is extremely important, and its symbolic meaning is also very obvious. As a matter of fact, he was reborn immediately, just like the background's birthday, which opened a new chapter in his life, and the birthday song was obviously sung to the section chief.
The section chief's confusing 360-degree transformation quickly unfolded the story behind it, but the director told it through the mouths of others in the second half of the story. Personally, I felt that the scene in the mourning hall was the real one. (I can't help but think that the Twelve Angry Men have learned a little bit from this passage, but of course it's just my personal feeling, no factual research), because after talking about a person's death, measuring his life changes to others How big can it be? The comments of others are often used to evaluate the success or failure of this person in the past.
Obviously, in a state of drunkenness, the civil servants still have a trace of sincere self to show, and still have a trace of blood in their bodies to do something for the citizens. However, from the alternate shots of your words and my words, and from this story that keeps switching flashbacks, the director deeply portrays the bureaucracy and corruption of the Japanese government, the checks and balances of power, the cowardice, and the shirk of responsibility. , Let it go, the stench in that black box is daunting. So it's no wonder that after sobering up, the idiots are still idiots after all. The only one who had a little hope was the other idiot in his awakening. The director gave him the final shot. I was thinking, this person should be the section chief when he was young, right? The section chief must have worked hard and wanted to do a great job, but it was slowly eroded by the huge government system. However, this idiot is still young, and I would like to believe that the director has left a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, it seems that the life of the stupid section chief has at least influenced another stupid civil servant more or less, and has also won the love and respect of many poor citizens, leaving the park, which is undoubtedly a great meaning of life where.
[The second question, have you forgotten to care for your parents (the elderly)? 】
This line made me compare Ozu's works while looking at it, because it is also the theme of "home". But obviously, Akira Kurosawa's heart is much bigger. Home is only one of the lines here, and its focus is naturally different, but they can't escape the family problem of "abandoning elderly parents" (especially father), which makes people sad I have to reflect on myself, when I treat my parents, do I have the patience and communication in place? Am I also so selfishly abandoning my parents to be happy on my own? Will I misunderstand my parents so nasty in the future? A good movie is one that gets us thinking, even if it seems to some people to be too serious an issue.
[The third question, tmd rancid bureaucratic government, are you doing wool to serve the people? ]
Hehe, twice, the Chinese government also applies. It seems that many Asian countries should have this problem. The bureaucratic atmosphere is like the monsoon. It blows and it collapses. The system is a state machine. What can helpless individuals do? But, do you really think you can't do something? The stupid section chief used his life to write down the proof that it was possible, so those stupid who have the ability, courage, and courage should wake up quickly, don't pretend to be asleep, life is so short.
I wrote so much without knowing it, but in fact, I also have a slot, that is, the actor. Shimura Hashimoto, your eyes are too wide, you know that opening such wide eyes will make people feel that you are expressing "the panic caused by escaping the fact of stomach cancer", "after indulging in indulgence, you suddenly realize that not only did you not forget the pain, On the contrary, it exacerbates the fear of the emptiness of life", "questioning Xiao Xianrou makes Mao full of vitality, and suddenly awakens to the realization that he can still do something", all of them will only be able to. . . Just open those big eyes (don't cut me if you have different opinions, it's purely personal viewing experience). The drama, hey, maybe it's because the black director keeps giving close-ups, it's just that the appearance is not high.
I still can't solve the third question at the beginning, how about you?
To know "how short life is", let's all try our best to be alive.
