Regardless of life or death, the feelings in forbidden colors will never dissipate

Watching this movie for the third time and crying for the first time

Yoyoi asked Jack fiercely but weakly, do you think you are an evil spirit?

This sudden appearance of a man has been torturing Yonoi all the time, making him go mad, which is probably the roar in his heart.

Jack's answer is, I wish I was one of your evil thoughts.

But he is not only Yonoi's evil spirit, he is also Yonoi's god. He is his calamity and his light.

As Hara said, when they were supposed to worship at the shrine, they had already dedicated everything to the emperor, and they only lived for the emperor who had never met in this life. So they should have been vicious towards the enemy, they should not have any distractions, they are samurai born only for the emperor, they will not be soft-hearted towards the enemy, they are samurai!

However, they are also human, and they also have feelings.

So Yonoi likes the arrogant Jack.

Everyone saw the anomaly. Lawrence pressed Yonoi several times, and even Hara could see Yonoi's thoughts.

While watching the movie, I kept thinking about why Yonoi treated him so irrationally and crazy. After thinking about it for a long time, the answer was the most unreliable word, love.

Love is coming, how can you stop it.

But he shouldn't have. As a Japanese, how could he have such emotions?

When I swiped it three times, I felt the illusory atmosphere of the entire movie, the depression, and the suppressed mood that was about to pervert.

So these Japanese who are always serious can turn into beasts in the next second, beating wildly and screaming wildly. All of their humanity is trapped under the banner of the Empire of Japan, devouring themselves.

Love is love, but in the world where you live, the Bushido spirit in your heart reminds you that you shouldn't love, which goes against everything.

Love and the principles that she adheres to are madly torn, and they are about to drive Shi Noi crazy.

Yonoi probably thought he was a man who lived for the country, but he wasn't.

He was pushing himself like that, driving himself crazy, and then Jack saved him.

With two kisses, this man with different-colored eyes took Yonoi out of the crazy world, and repaired his own broken heart.

When he saw Yonoi for the last time, he was peaceful, no longer the captain who was depressed to the point of madness.

I believe that in the future, when Jack took away the depressed and crazy Yonoi, he peacefully welcomed his own death two years later, and died peacefully with a smile. That strand of hair was also enshrined by him to the shrine in his hometown. Then let's go like this. When he died, he should have thought about Jack's face, doing the same actions as Jack.

In fact, whether it was during the war or after the war, the original smile and eyes are the same.

In fact, the cruel Yuan is not a brutal person, on the contrary, he is even peaceful and innocent.

It's just that Bushido plated him with dirty rust.

This peaceful and innocent person, with the purest mind, believes in his nation, but does not want to be brought into destruction by his nation.

What was Yuan thinking that night, as a Japanese samurai, he should kill Lawrence.

But as a human being, Lawrence was his friend.

Yuan Yuan probably drank a lot of alcohol that night. Only in this way can he give himself an excuse. I was drunk, so I let Lawrence go.

Alcohol was his excuse, and the principles he followed would not allow him to do such a thing soberly, so he only dared to use alcohol as an excuse to let his good friend go.

In fact, he was the most awake that night, and that was the real himself.

They said he was crazy

As a Japanese samurai, he is really crazy, crazy like himself.

I have mixed feelings about Yonoi and Hara, two Japanese people who struggle with the system they believe in. Fortunately they met Jack and Lawrence.

For Yonoi, Jack is the forbidden sex in his life, his evil spirit, his redemption, and the lover he dared not mention in his life.

As far as Yuan is concerned, Lawrence is a sincere friend and the one who cherishes each other on the battlefield.

Now, I don't think the ending is tragic.

Death doesn't mean anything, it's good enough that Yonoi is lucky enough to meet Jack. And Yuan, being able to get away from everything is good enough.

Regardless of the war, whether they are dead or alive, these forbidden feelings will never dissipate.

Thinking about it this way, even this song is no longer so tragic.

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence quotes

  • Sgt. Gengo Hara: I get it. You think they'll all want to bugger him. So, it's true: all Englishmen are queer.

  • Sgt. Gengo Hara: You're all afraid of queers, aren't you? Samurai aren't afraid of queers.

    Col. John Lawrence: War strengthens bonds of friendship between men, but that doesn't mean all soldiers turn queer.

    Sgt. Gengo Hara: You're not genuine soldiers. You're lowly POWs. That's why you lack discipline and beg me for favors. You should be ashamed.

    Col. John Lawrence: Sergeant Hara, I have nothing to be ashamed of.
