This time, Hirokazu Kore-eda also started talking about his father. Compared with other films, "Like Father Like Son" is undoubtedly nothing new in terms of plot. A story about two families with very different economic levels holding the wrong child. The background of such a story is not even used in the family ethics films at 8:00 now. The one who is best at the family theme is Hirokazu Koreeda, not focusing on the touching father-son family relationship. It's a story about how a man learns to be a father, and how to choose between blood and family.
The characters of the characters in the film are relatively face-to-face. Nonomiya, played by Masaharu Fukuyama, is an elite father who pursues perfection and rarely accompanies him, while Masaru Nakagawa plays Kuma Dai Saiki, a country father who is careless in the market but often plays with his children. .
Different families, fathers with different personalities, have completely opposite requirements for their children. Whether it is a father or two sons, the protagonist of the film is undoubtedly Fukuyama Masaharu. He is a father and a son at the same time. He is influenced by his father's blood theory. Influenced, he chose to exchange for his biological son, and he dominated the whereabouts of the two families. Because of the unequal social status, he always has a sense of superiority in front of Saigi Xiongda. The plot of the two meeting in the restaurant in the movie shows that Nonomiya has many views on Saigi Xiongda. And Saiki Kumadai also kindly expressed his views on Nonomiya's behavior that he was busy with work but did not have time to accompany his children. When Nonomiya said that he had an irreplaceable job to do, Saiki no longer smiled but said with a serious face, what are you talking about, it takes time for children, and a father is also a job that no one can replace.
Undoubtedly, in the role of father, Nonomiya is also like a toddler, and Saiki's understanding of the role of father is better than him. When the two children returned to their original positions, one ran away from home, while the other could enjoy the warmth of the family.
The movie uses a lot of fixed shots, with fragmented plots to advance the story. Because he went home to visit his father, he made the decision to return to his son, and because of a chance encounter with an old architect and a conversation about cicadas, his life principles that he had always adhered to were shaken. It takes 15 years for cicadas to lay eggs, to larvae, and then to emerge as adults. so long? Does it feel like a long time?
After Nonomiya remarried his father, he also ran away from home, but in the end he found that he had a better relationship with his stepmother, but was estranged from his biological father. The ties of blood and the emotion of getting along day and night are just a measure of time. But now, in the blink of an eye, he has also become a father, and the child has grown up slowly. How many more years will he have the opportunity to get along with the child? The most heart-wrenching thing in the world is that the child wants to support but the parent is not there. For fathers, it is the father wants to have a parent and the child is old.
Most of the movie has nothing to do with earning tears. Every adult and child is calm and peaceful, like a supporting role walking on the road. But when Nonomiya woke up from his drowsy sleep, he touched the paper flower that Keita had given him, and there was only a bare branch left. He picked up the camera and looked at the photos. The front one was all photos with Liu Qing, the back was a few photos with Qing Duo, and then there was Qing Duo who secretly took his photos in an invisible place. That is a child's pure and intimate love for his father, who is trying to live the way you want without talking, crying or making trouble. When Nonomiya, who had been stern, suppressed his crying, his nose was sore, and he also started to cry. Fortunately, Nonomiya was able to understand in time, and gradually approached the child who turned and ran, and finally embraced each other.
After the child is born, you are only qualified to be a father, not qualified to be a good father. In the years to come, the role of father and son will be each other's students. What grades can you get in this course?
