In Japan, there is a saying called "Wu Ai", which means to give the deepest feelings for all things in the outside world.
It praises the sorrow of the lost life, and appreciates the beauty of fallen leaves more than the green leaves on the branches. The sorrow of the soul is like an expression of the beauty of things. Instagram has been blocked for more than a year, but young people generally remember that there is a color adjustment parameter for those square photos, called Japanese style. The picture is clean, concise and beautiful, with cool tone, fading and slight overexposure as the main features. This kind of photos keeps a time and psychological distance from Xiao Qingxin, and the filter strength will not infringe on the viewer. Seeing the turquoise background of "Haijie Diary", you will be connected to this color tone, and you will feel even more emotional, whether it is Zhi Yuhe or that one is Zhi Yuhe. The movie continues to entertain big celebrities and supporting roles, and the shadows of past works keep reappearing. From "Non-stop" to "Miracle" by Eddie's own, Naomi Kawase to Ryosuke Hashiguchi. How many TV shows about the Four Sisters are there in Japan? From 1965 Xihe Keji "The Story of the Four Sisters", Ichikawa Kun "Snow" in 1983, Obayashi Nobuhiko's "Sister Slope" in 1985, Honda Masahiro's "Four Sisters Story" in 1995, and Morita Yoshimitsu's "Wan Ru" in 2003 Asura, 2015 is Hirokazu Ee's "Diary of the Sea Street", the Japanese drama "The Four Sisters Detective Group", "The Four Sisters of the Huawa Family", and the animation "The Four Sisters of Wakakusa"... From the forest of Yamagata to the sea of Kamakura, "Haijie Diary" tells a story about acceptance, tolerance and life's grace. Shining is the girl's bright eyes, the milky light spilled into the old house, the sisters who have different temperaments but are close to each other, and they are Ji Guang Katayu, whom Hou Xiaoxian says is unnamed and difficult to classify. This kind of aura is also extended to sound, like light and fine wind chimes, the sizzling sound of fried tempura, and the repeated train passing by, pretending to knock on the door. There is also the taste of sardine sashimi that has reunited, Mei Shigure that has not been experienced for a long time, and even Kazuki cherry blossoms that have been deliberately hidden. It is the image world of Hirokazu Ee, which not only connects itself, but also connects with contemporary directors, continuing the master mark of the golden age. What's even more amazing is that, for today's Chinese movie fans, his movies are Japanese or Japanese imaginations-it is difficult for you to find other substitutes.
The glory of the old house depends on popularity. The four sisters went in and out, Zhang Luo cleaned up, allowing the images to breathe and flow, and also made this family story of girly comics plus photography really stand. In fact, it is very simple to take pictures of Ayase Haruka, Nagasawa Masami, and Natsuho beautifully. Just like the movies they have made, otherwise like the beginning, let Nagasawa Yamei wear bra and show off her long legs. But most of the time, especially those close-up close-ups, Zhi Zhi deliberately took them "not so beautiful", light makeup, casual and somewhat old. In the casting, the age difference of the four people is completely established. Like the scales marking their heights, their lives have become the actual evidence of the old house and daily things. Kamakura in "The Diary of the Sea Street" seems to have very few people and a slow pace of life, which carries the meaning of life passing and time resident. Father who has not seen him in fifteen years, a dish 20 years ago, and plum trees in fifty years. With the help of a certain unique form of memory, they have been preserved, entrusting the late generations' yearning and nostalgia for their ancestors. The youthful and bright tonality, the arrangement of trivial diaries, and the movie's desire to make the characters quarrel, have all become difficult things. Either it was quickly interrupted, or it was diluted afterwards. The proprietress of Lianhaimao canteen, she didn't complain about the behavior of the rogue brother, she just kept it in her heart and let him go. If there are any shortcomings in this film, it is probably too light and too slow, close to ideal, incompetent with the world. It tells the leisurely and contented story in a calm and breezy way. Change the previous work "As Father Like Son", the story is too bloody. "Air Doll" is too heavy. It is the "Miracle" that has gone to the childish taste, and the "Non-Stop Walking" that has moved further away. Earlier, it was Zhi Yuhe's movie, which was actually bitter and heavy. It was completely different from today's "a flower, a world, a tree and a floating life". It is not difficult to imagine a dark version or a Chinese version of "Haijie Diary". Perhaps, it is not that the movie is too far away from us, but that we are too far away from the fun of life. A country that has just been allowed to have a second child and is keen to play a junior year, how to enter an Oriental ideal country that exists in the movie. Unmarried, the sisters are in groups, do not live with their parents, and even repeat the wasting stories of the previous generation. They also ask nature to ask for it, but they ask for very few things. Everyone knows how to be grateful when dealing with others and is willing to give back. Just like with data analysis, foreign netizens prefer to give enthusiastic likes to strangers on Instagram. This is courtesy and an ordinary virtue. It is too easy to do, but it seems to be missing from our side.
You can say that, just like Ozu's movies, it never happened in real Japanese society. It is the story of Hirokazu Edema, which also does not belong to today's Japanese reality. But movies always have a kind of magic that can take us to look around, stay away from ugliness, pursue beautiful things, and yearn for a new life. The green plum with full branches, if you don't pick it, will fall on the ground and rot by itself. If you are eager to try and eat it, I am afraid it will be finished. But in the "Haijie Diary", the sisters' approach continues the older generation's practice. Distribute it to relatives and neighbors for making wine. It turns out that plums have matured for a long time, just for your drunkenness. Funeral ceremonies have appeared many times in the movie, which is very common in Japanese movies. "Haijie Diary" tries to eliminate the details related to grief, but hopes that everyone can thank life and feel the beauty of ordinary things. In short, it's good to be alive. As for death, I have all remembered the words that Shu Xilin advised against: It is great that my sister is dead. If it were not for the separation of life and death, the memory of the father, and the belief in the family, the younger sister would not be accepted, and the old house would not be preserved. Let's talk about fireworks and cherry blossoms. These things are really short-lived, but they will appear repeatedly, year after year, appearing in the lives of several generations, as memories that have been extended and passed on from generation to generation, and will last forever. It's like a set of photos, like this movie. [Published in "China News Weekly"] ----------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------
