It's true that Murakami's sexual descriptions are quite impressive to me, understated but like a cat, constantly scratching your heart.
This movie is only played at noon. When I came to the cinema at noon, there was basically no one, except for a few aunts who were doing hygiene and a few sleepy ticket
sellers. When buying tickets, the ticket seller asked me if I was I was the only one, I said yes, and then she said that since I was the only one, it would be a loss for me to show it alone, she persuaded me to watch another movie, and sincerely said that this movie is not good, the plot is very erotic, There is also the topic of homosexuality, which ordinary people cannot accept.
I was stunned for a moment, but insisted on watching, she gave me a blank look and gave me a ticket.
While I was waiting for the movie to start, I spent a full hour in the lounge.
It finally started, I walked into the dark theater, no one was there, I sat down a little nervously.
For this film, I wanted to shoot, the pictures are especially beautiful, they kiss in the snowy forest, have sex on the balcony in the rainy summer day, or take a walk in the damp green grass in the cold spring.
The director seems to have warmed the novels of Haruki Murayama, not as bland and unfeeling as the novels.
I just remember that Naoko said on his birthday, "If you are always eighteen or nineteen, you will be nineteen." I don't know if it is the original words of the novel, but according to Murakami's consistent writing style, Will he write such a warm sentence? Isn't his understanding of youth the same as the boy in "Kafka on the Shore"?
Maybe he wanted to say that people today forget what they thought when they were young, and want to remind us that people can be seventeen or eighteen forever, at least in their hearts.
In the end, Naoko completely closed herself and knew that she would hang herself in the winter woods. She said that she did not know what love was and how to get along with others. I don't know the reason why a person is crazy, can't understand, can't empathize, just can't have smooth sex with the person he loves? The movie opens with Naoko's boyfriend, Kiyuki, committing suicide. I can't understand the feeling, and I don't want to empathize with it.
The ending of the movie is very surprising, with a line from the male lead: "Yeah, where am I?" and it ends like this. .
