The most abstract movie in Kurosawa's late period! The first paragraph of the fox marrying a daughter symbolizes the primitive worship of mankind to nature. The second paragraph of the peach blossom fairy symbolizes the symbiotic relationship between man and nature. The commander in the third paragraph symbolizes the devastation of the war to the human heart. The fourth stage of climbing is a symbol of nature's redemptive grace for man. The fifth horned monster satirizes human nature's greed. The sixth paragraph, Van Gogh, symbolizes the pursuit of beauty in nature. The seventh stage of the nuclear power plant hints at the future of mankind.
"Dream", the master Kurosawa's ultimate aesthetics and warnings, is a film worthy of praise. Fox rain marrying daughters, peach blossom dancers, brave climbers, officers returning from tiredness, drifting away from Van Gogh, nuclear power finally exploded, the devil is also afraid of death, and intoxicated in natural villages. All dreams use harsh aesthetics to tell the universal laws and warn the world. . Xiaogu follows, the gong horns, and a person's life is naturally very short. If you have a note to see you off, you will win the respect of nature.

    dream. Akira Kurosawa's masterpiece in his later years, like a dream but not a dream, eight surreal dreams, covering all the intricate human and natural world. Whether it is prophecy or reflection, the old man's final life attitude is worth savoring carefully and slowly. In addition, the height of the visual color sense of this film has once again reached the extreme, the beauty is almost suffocating, and the master's talent is indescribable. "Chaos" and "Dream" have proved it all at this point.

Dreams quotes

  • Nuclear Plant Worker: The red one is plutonium-239. 10,000,000th of a gram causes cancer. The yellow one in strontium-90. It gets inside you and causes leukemia. The purple one is cesium-137. It affects reproduction. It causes mutations. It makes monstrosities. Man's stupidity is unbelievable. Radioactivity was invisible, and because of its danger, they colored it. But that only lets you know which kind kills you.
