The idea of ​​living

The last time I saw Akira Kurosawa's movie was a long time ago, and I have watched almost all the movies of the black director that can be seen on the Internet. After all, the master is the master. Too arrogant.
At the beginning of Lust for Life, I was shocked by the acting skills shown by the protagonist when he heard stomach cancer symptoms. The old actor is Jiang Shi Lao, and his expressions and actions are very good. Like\(≧▽≦)/!
There will always be surprises in watching movies directed by black directors, and you will not be disappointed.

More than 20 minutes after the start, the protagonist began to recall that the parents, the most unable to let go, are the children.

The desire to live, in fact, can be small or grand.


Suddenly I feel that Shimura Joe's acting skills are good and bad.
The embarrassment of the old man in the movie poster reminds me of Chaplin.
The film's soundtrack comes just right. People once again have to sigh that Akira Kurosawa is the emperor of the movie.
Imprisoned desire. Thirty years of abstinence. The girl commented that he was a mummy, which really revealed the state of life for 30 years. Almost lost yourself for the sake of the child?
The distorted personality... gradually formed in the depression for nearly 30 years, and began to break out unscrupulously before learning that he was about to die...
It can be seen that the era of the movie was still quite conservative.
The helplessness in his eyes at this moment is terrifying.
I've only watched half of the movie, and I always feel that the old man in the following plot will commit a crime,,,,
I actually got in touch with the "Breaking Bad" Lao Bai, who is similar in life,,,, so much like them.

Japanese movies sometimes feel very scary and scary. Especially old black and white films. The strong acting tension of the actors and the right soundtrack, as well as the dense atmosphere that is unique to old Japanese movies, will instantly feel terrifying. And obviously it's not a horror movie at all! !
I have to sigh again Shimura Joe's acting skills. Some actors are like domineering and domineering. As soon as they enter the play, the aura of the entire actor will be unfolded unconsciously, so that the whole role will go deeper into the bone marrow. Shimura Joe is such an actor. Really cool!

I didn't expect the protagonist to leave so soon. The director didn't intend to show the protagonist only. It's more about the people around you, human nature.
In Japan and South Korea, the level of the official university crushes people to death. No matter the officialdom or the workplace, as long as there are people, there are places where there are rivers and lakes.

Watching this movie for Mao, everyone has a little abacus in their hearts? Don't ask me how I know, just look.
It is not difficult to guess that Akira Kurosawa must also be a director who is very good at training actors. Actors of various forms are also one of the biggest features of this film, from the common people, to the members of the citizen department, to the deputy mayor and his subordinates at the memorial ceremony, to his sons, daughters-in-law, and old friends.

The dead pave the way for the living, and that's how movies are. This is even more true for the countless officials who jumped off buildings in China.

The protagonist didn't leave, I was in memory, I was reading and writing -
Baidu Encyclopedia said that Shimura Joe is a late bloomer, I want to say that this late bloomer, this level is so high
, that hoarse voice, eager His eyes, bent at a nearly 90-degree angle, fascinated
a section chief and a deputy mayor. In an Asian society steeped in Oriental Confucian ethics, no matter typical of China, Japan and Korea, it is a huge taboo. If it weren't for the dying, Watanabe would not dare to borrow his courage, the hierarchy is strict.
This look is not good, the protagonist's eyes will definitely speak, no matter how humble his body and posture are, but his eyes will not lie, even if I were the deputy mayor, I would be shocked by such eyes.
Use the stories of colleagues to tell the story of the protagonist's last job during his lifetime.
All of a sudden, the last person with eyes that impressed me was Zhao Dan in "Angel on the Road", which is a model of Chinese film. Such a young Zhao Dan, his watery eyes can really speak.
The movie ends with a group of colleagues discussing how he repairs the park, which reminds me of 1957's Twelve Angry Men. ! Amazing resemblance! It's not the plot, it's the cinematography! Even the acting expressions of those present in the discussion are quite in place!
One is 52 years old and the other is 57 years old. Has the latter learned from the former?
Life is so short, let's fall in love with a girl, before the red lips fade, before the enthusiasm turns cold, no one knows what will happen...
At the end of the movie, a group of drunken civil servants clamored to inherit the spirit of Watanabe, Being a new person, the people in the system are clamoring for change, how can it feel like drunken bullshit, the justice that I want to accomplish is in my dreams, and I wake up the next day and still go to work for some unknown reason? Civil servants all over the world are the same, right?
Not everyone does Watanabe. There is only one Watanabe. Thousands of civil servants are the epitome of the new chief of the Citizens Section.
In the end, Watanabe has only one person who agrees, and he only agrees, but he can't change anything, and he walks into the distance lonely... In


the end, I have to sigh, Kurosawa Akira is really awesome, I pay homage, and the director did this. On, it is also worthy of the master of the masters. Not out of the world. There are few masters of such a high degree in later generations. A movie can trigger too much thinking, and it is all about the propositions of human ethics, social constitution and human nature philosophy.
Every film directed by Akira Kurosawa seems to be a masterpiece. It is a boutique, not only outstanding and excellent, but also outstanding. It is a lot better than other directors. It is not of an order of magnitude at all.
After all, the movie emperor.

    When "Voices on the Street" suddenly broke into the auditory space of the film for the first time, it meant that the omniscient perspective of the horror voice-over preview and suspense temporarily disappeared, and Akira Kurosawa seemed to have borrowed from the "Benshi" of early Japanese silent films. Traditions - Narratives, scenes, and subjective critiques of characters. At this time, the viewer enters the subjective perspective of the old man, but the omniscient point of view and the voice-over have not completely disappeared. They still intrude from time to time. What disappears is the subjective perspective in the second half of the film, and is replaced by a flashback of group images under the subjectivity of space. , Onion-type ghost (psychic)-image, as the last link of the free indirect structure of the film. However, "The Desire of Life" is not a story about the elderly. The elderly are stagnant in childhood. From the release of suppressed pleasures, desires, and love to "creation" that means morality and responsibility, the arrival of terminal illness makes He had to re-examine his state of existence, undergo growth rituals, and age at an incredible rate.

    A person's life should be spent in this way: when recalling the past, he will not regret for wasting his time, nor be ashamed for being mediocre.
