(With spoilers)
1. Title
The first finalized name was "Missionary" and later changed to "X Shengji". Finally, the producer of Daiei Films (now Kadokawa Films) said "CURE" was good. There was "Cure" with medical terminology. The meaning of "X Shengzhi" has religious meaning
Kiyoshi Kurosawa wrote this script in the 1990s. At that time, Japanese society had a large cult crime such as "Aum Shinrikyo" (1995.3.20 "Sarin Gas" in Tokyo). If the title contains a religious atmosphere, it will make people The misunderstanding caused people to use the name "cure" (so the name was not supervised), which also created a separation and opposition to the content of the film.
2. Regarding the "red dress" that appeared in the laundry
Supervisor Kiyoshi Kurosawa referred to the French director Henri-georges Clouzot (Henri-Georges Clouzot) in a 1955 film "Les diaboliques" (demon). In the clip, the suit he wore appeared again. This reminds people of "Isn't he dead?" Or "Suddenly it looks like a corpse without a head is moving." It presents a kind of visual horror and The psychological thrilling effect hints at the death of Gao's wife after the film
3. The senior ate steak in the restaurant twice
After the second high-level steak meal (it looks like it was eating with relish in the film), I ordered a cup of coffee and savored slowly.
The first time I went to the upper part of the restaurant was a walking dead hollowed out by the pressure of work and life
At this time, the high part is already a person who has been completely liberated and healed (it also becomes scary)
At work: Killed Mamiya, who had been torturing him. Family: A big burden in life, his insane wife died.
"When the pressure is relieved, the appetite comes up" (in the original interview with Nakayaku Sang), so I will eat up the food in front of me.
3. The woman with a knife at the end of the film
Before the waitress took the knife, a woman who looked like her boss walked over to her and whispered a few words as if to convey an order
Supervisor Kiyoshi Kurosawa had originally arranged "The waitress took the knife and walked into the kitchen and slowly approached the woman who was whispering to her just now. She stabbed her and repeated it, and then the screen switched to the ending ED". There are too many pictures like this, there is no "enough white space" and "open suspense", so I deleted it
(The female boss looks a little stiff because the crew put a protective plate on her back out of safety considerations that "she is about to be stabbed to death")
As for whether the film is a "horror movie", Kurosawa Kiyoshi and Yakusuo San said, "Isn't it? If you really want to define it, then it is also the terrible monster of Takabe. Who knows what he is thinking when he is calm on the surface? Who knows to sink into the crowd? What will he do next?"
