occupational pass the buck, dawdle, numbness busy departments and units of the people's livelihood, he, Watanabe was also one of them. The big dyeing vat of the government agency does not matter whether it is good or bad. After a long time, it turns into a color. It was just a death notice that changed this lifeless old guy.

It can be seen that the old Watanabe was dead thirty years before learning of cancer. After knowing the day of death, he began to introspect, looking for the down-and-out novelist and the sunshine and passionate girl, and resurrected in the birthday song sung to others. The meaning of "birth" in just a few days has surpassed the numb life of 30 years.

The film incorporates some helplessness towards the alienation of children, but unlike "Tokyo Story", the film does not dig deep here, but tends to be a satire of the current situation. This is Kurosawa Akira's delicate mind but full of man's stubborn side. Kick the ball when it's unprofitable, and everyone snatches it after the success. At the funeral, a nearly rogue city hall official said to himself, and was slapped in the left by an unexpected reporter. The brick and crony plastering was not yet completed. The citizens who came to visit suddenly gave another right slap and bowed left and right to bash a group of shameless people out of the auditorium.

Regarding subordinates, wretched people use Watanabe to show their wretchedness with their own salvation; regarding superiors, high-cold people have fallen in love with aliens one after another. What's the scariest, really? fake? No, it's different! What is wrong, okay? bad? No, it's unruly! Absurd rules create absurd groups! ! ! In the second session of the mourning hall, the discussion vs. narration between you and me, it proved that it is easier to pick faults than to do things and it is easier to find a follower. In the end, the police's self-redemption and confession were exchanged for three minutes of blood and blood, and once again gave the clowns a dumbfounding slap.

Good people deceive the sky and do not deceive, do not need to explain too much, do not need to worry about yourself, it took 30 years of numbness and a death notice to exchange for a short life, no time to appreciate the beauty of the evening, would it be wasting life to talk With narrow-minded people?

Life is so short, let the girl fall in love soon, before the red lips fade, and before the enthusiasm has cooled down, no one knows what will happen next. The three-minute hot chicken blood in Watanabe Park will not lead to any change in the status quo. The world is as usual. However, the children in Watanabe Park may have a rooted voice-not too late, before the end of their lives, face it with enthusiasm. This is the meaning of "life". While Akira Kurosawa satirized the present, he still gave hope for the future.

  • 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!
