director and my country

First of all, the soundtrack inside is amazing! I like it very much, I can give five stars for the music in a single column~

Secondly, the director is simply amazing! Just like me~ How can I tell you, even when I read novels, I felt that Naoko was a lunatic, and it was especially annoying. In the movie, the role Naoko chose was unpleasant in the first place, and the acting was super unnatural. The director must have hated Naoko in the original book for casting and filming, so he worked so hard to blacken Naoko. . .

Also, the editing of the pictures in many places in the movie is super beautiful! For example, the first three good friends are together, such as snow, swimming pool, etc., etc., and so on. However, how did the sex with Naoko shoot so badly? . . pretty ugly. . .

Also, when I read the original book, I liked Midori very much. I remember that Midori gave Watanabe a handjob in the original book, but it was not filmed in the movie. At that time, I was very young, in my teens, and I didn't think it was pornographic. I think the green girl has a good character. Midori in the movie played very well, maybe because she has a certain advantage in appearance, but the performance is very natural and there is no exaggeration like the Naoko actor.

The dead are always seventeen.

This sentence affected me for quite a long time.

In fact, the film adapted from the novel will not be too wishful. Except for Naoko's actor who is a big failure, the rest of the film is not bad.

    Students who have not read the original book said that the film was a bit bad. The transition of the opening shots and the scenes is cloudy and foggy, the narrative is too fragmented, and most of them rely on narration to tell the content. In addition, the love scene takes up too much time, and it is better to use it to make up for the lack of plot; therefore, the focus of the narrative that the director wants to express cannot be found. The commendable thing is the photography, which is beautiful and refreshing. The inspirational sister who has read the original once said that she hoped that Iwai Shunji would come to guide her.

    Nothing but the picture. It is good to choose Matsuyama Kenichi and Mizuhara Kiko.

Norwegian Wood quotes

  • Storm Trooper: Mind if I give you a piece of advice?

    Toru Watanabe: Sure.

    Storm Trooper: Don't feel sorry for yourself. Only degenerates feel sorry for themselves.

  • Toru Watanabe: Nothing can heal the loss of a beloved. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness can heal that sorrow. All we can do is live through the sorrow and learn something from it. But whatever we learn will be of no help in facing the next sorrow that comes along.
