Is Takeshi Kitano violent? Is Takeshi Kitano bloody? Is Takeshi Kitano beautiful? Is Takeshi Kitano
romantic
? The film "Zatoichi". Watching the film " Zatoichi
" today, I once again felt the heroic plot of Takeshi Kitano, which is
violent but not bloody. A very romantic and violent plot.
What happens when individuals are put together?
The blind hero in Kitano Takeshi's film is a bit like the hero in Gu Long's novel. He eliminates violence, saves the poor and robs the rich, and is fascinated by martial arts. He never has any moves,
pays attention to speed, and pays attention to winning with one move. It integrates the idealized plots, patterns and ideas in the creator's heart.
Takeshi Kitano and Takashi Miike, two directors who are famous for shooting violence in Japan.
Takeshi Kitano's films, violent but not bloody, are full of a lot of romance in the violence, Just like the dance and music added in "Zatoichi".
The brothers and sisters who are running for revenge for their families, the tap dance that is very popular at the end, adds funny, humorous lines and the fat man who is stupid and slaps it
everywhere . People feel a kind of harmony, warmth, and joy.
The violence of Takashi Miike is mainly related to blood, especially "Killer Aichi".
The suffocating pictures, the unimaginable storyline, and the sudden appearance of each one make people sick The momentary fragment of the film.
Showing blood in violence, and interpreting violence in blood.
Two different directors have different concepts and scales of violence aesthetics, and the feelings expressed in the film will be different.
