When the kind-hearted child stood in front of the lonely little peach tree swaying in the wind, the mysterious mist of the divine tree descended, a grand magic unfolded, and the gods danced the dance of rebirth. Only when the dream of the peach forest leaves us wandering, can we know clearly: we should respect nature, protect nature, and keep the true nature of our hearts. 1. The dream of the peach blossoms in the depths of the peach forest The director skillfully used the technique of color contrast. First, he used a textured lens to shoot the bright peach blossom in the dark tatami, and then the camera turned to the indifferent girl in a kimono behind the warm red curtain. of the gods. A series of contrasts strongly express the infinite vitality of peach blossoms, as beautiful and gentle as the girl in pink kimono. The director used a close-up shot of a peach tree to imply that beautiful things in nature are easy to lose. In the close-up shot of the boy crying, there is a line that is thought-provoking: You can buy delicious peaches with money, but how can you buy a peach garden where flowers are maddened? If we destroy Taoyuan, we will lose it forever, and we will never get back the idyllic scene. Dream cooking wine is tasteless, I don’t know who the peach blossoms are blooming for? I think that Yingdu is not only for people to watch, but more importantly, thousands of peach blossoms have transformed into our peach blossoms and constructed our natural world. 2. The dream of revering nature and protecting nature When shooting the segment where the gods danced together, the director used a balanced composition method to make the picture of this group of panoramic shots very regular, with a mural-like beauty. The little boy stands at the bottom, and the stairs are ascending in order of gods of increasing ranks. The clever standing of the characters resembles the relief of Christ, implying the law of man and nature: human beings are the bottom layer of nature, and they live by the generosity of nature. Through this picture, people are reminded that if they violate the objective laws, abuse resources excessively, and damage the environment, human beings will eventually be punished by nature. I don’t know when, our identity has changed from dependants and cultivators to predators and end consumers. We should understand from the strong contrast between peach forests inside and outside the dream that respecting nature and protecting nature is an indispensable part of human development and evolution. ring. 3. Returning to traditional culture to protect the soul, Akira Kurosawa showed the audience the performance forms of different gods in turn by moving horizontally, restoring the traditional Japanese kasha culture to the camera, and highlighting the charm of traditional art. In the indoor panoramic shot at the beginning of the film, girls dressed in kimonos are celebrating Girls' Day but they cut down peach trees, which is worrying and thought-provoking: peach trees are the soul of Girls' Day, if even the roots of culture are cut down, They are wearing kimonos only in the form of festivals. The director uses different depths of field and the processing of the main light and auxiliary light to describe this declining traditional cultural world to us, and at the same time shows the audience the large-scale impact of modern civilization on traditional culture, with great ideological depth. Without the peach forest, there is no soil for the roots to penetrate, only vases and tree stumps are left; there are fewer things that can be passed on stably, and fewer and fewer cultural symbols. We cannot let our hearts lose the protection of the peach forest, but should re-form the ancient covenant of co-living with the peach forest and return to the tradition itself. The dream of the peach forest, the sublime of nature. When I wake up, the peach blossoms are still in full bloom, everything is still harmonious, and the world is still gentle.

    It's more like the Black Emperor's summary of his life. Eight dreams, eight life fragments, from youth to old age, from hometown to mankind, dream-like absurd scenes, but clearly a projection of reality. The dream of the movie giant is extraordinary. I personally like the last "Dream of Waterwheel Village" the most. It is really appropriate to understand the wonderful life of the Black Emperor and his works from this film. #资料馆留影#

    The first one is the most beautiful, you can imagine the boy's future, you can imagine all kinds of possibilities. And the other dreams are dead endings, with no hope or future in sight, only devastated and devastated. And only the last dream with hope is so didactic and overly scheming... The original colors of the artwork are all very good.

Dreams quotes

  • Nuclear Plant Worker: The red one is plutonium-239. 10,000,000th of a gram causes cancer. The yellow one in strontium-90. It gets inside you and causes leukemia. The purple one is cesium-137. It affects reproduction. It causes mutations. It makes monstrosities. Man's stupidity is unbelievable. Radioactivity was invisible, and because of its danger, they colored it. But that only lets you know which kind kills you.
