Thank you, Yamada

I watched "Hanawa" again. After so many years, I watched this movie again because I was bored. I remember that at that time, when I dropped out of school and was bored at home, I watched this movie just to feel a little happiness and prove that I was not so numb. Later, I was convinced by Takeshi Kitano. His narration with tension in his blandness, his poetic lens in his sternness, his silent but complex performance in his heart, he pretended to be ruthless but exuded a gentle character. The fascinated joy when he stares at you with sunglasses, his interesting portrayal of the villain, the romantic to death he expresses, and, most importantly, as a director and starring himself, after being baptized by the boredom of life. The innocence he showed, the movie dream that he still naively dreamed in the repressed society, he just wanted to use his film career and works that he really started after the age of forty to tell us: There are still some innocence in this world. . (Attached a poor imitation of Takeshi Kitano when he was young)
