Miss the air

An old man named Li Cunbin from Tianjin fled to the deep mountains and lived in the forest for 40 years because his wife was occupied by his brothers.
In the wilderness, you must mow the grass and camp (relying on the iron tripod and rope) to spend the night before the storm comes, otherwise it will freeze to death.
Delsu, an old man of Gothe, made a living by hunting, and didn't want to go to the city for fear that it would be difficult to make a living in the city. He lives in the forest by himself, has no family, and is sad.
Fall into the swift river, let the people on the shore cut down the tree and tie it with a rope. The tree fell into the water to reach him and rescued him.
He was old and had poor eyesight. He accidentally hit a tiger and blamed himself deeply. Later, his hunting skills declined and he was even more afraid. The captain took him to the metropolis, but he was not used to sitting in the house all day long, unable to move around or hunting, and could not camp outside on rainy days, "missing the air".
Finally returned to the forest and was killed by someone who wanted to take his new weapon.
It shows that the primitive way of life that is close to nature has gone. People living in cities are actually very fragile and have lost their instinct to survive in the wild.
But the primitive life of hunting, in today's society, is also extremely unsuitable, backward, and excluded.

There is a small question, whose land is this here?

    At the beginning of Kurosawa Akira's late style, people are in the wild, calm without stimulation, talk when they should speak, and the camera should move when they move, as Hashimoto Shinobu said, he really can't deal with more complex themes and character emotions, nature and civilization It's just a coat, it's good-looking, and it is from the simple characters that the strong emotions are also exuded. The friendship between Dersu Uzala and the captain is true in adversity, and the old man's words and deeds are too cute

    The Ussuri forest, ice fields, and the living environment of the aborigines in the book are reproduced satisfactorily, but the whole film is narrated from the perspective of an overly calm bystander, which is quite dull. Del Su and the captain lack in-depth descriptions, and there is very little dialogue. . I doubt whether it is because Kurosawa doesn't understand Russian and there is a problem with the actor's communication. According to the black samurai movie, he shouldn’t have this dull style
