There is always a man in Aki Korrismaki's films who gets slapped in the back of his head and gets money away.
The doctor refused to help because there was no owner. He walked out of the hospital alive.
He who has lost his memory is like an adult abandoned to the earth.
Living in the crowd, but like Rubinson, growing his own potatoes.
Someone lives in a garbage truck.
He took the opportunity to kiss the old maiden who said that people on earth should help each other. She said you stole my first kiss.
He knows how to let the dull band listen to rap and hip-hop and change the style of music.
"The human mind is narrow, but the vast land is infinite."
Without a name, he would be arrested. The intrepid lawyer argued with the arrested officials about the law.
There are enthusiastic people, but mostly indifferent. Despite this, it is enough for a passionate person to meet one.
Back home, his wife said, "You don't drink too much, but you gamble, play big dick, and lose all your records."

    I saw it in Teacher Lu Shaoyang's class in 2004. Aki’s film really pays attention to light, color and composition. But the film is really cold, and the identity issue is really thorough. This sensational story has a clear Nordic tone. The music is really good.

    Aki Kaurismaki is a director who is getting better and better. His realistic simulation and fiction with a stage performance and a strong sense of theater can penetrate the appearance of reality better. His optimism and existential spirit are somewhat similar to the American news novels of the 1960s and 1970s, with the idea that novels are more real than news. If you don't pay the rent, I'll bring the toughest dog to bite you. He grew up eating raw meat. His name is Hannibal. I kissed you secretly, because I'm not a gentleman. When the cigarettes are finished, let's fight! This cold, comical and hopeful style is also the result of the director's constant revision of his internal perspective in reality, and he is content with knowing what to do.
