The Bad Sleep Well

Master Kurosawa’s films always combine the various aspects of Japanese society with the film philosophy he pursues, and a masterpiece is born. In "Sweet Dreams of the Evil Man", Akira Kurosawa once again offered the theory of human nature evil (this is the same as the director of the old Ku that he admires most), and it seems that he is even the originator of "The Godfather" (seemingly A sharp contrast between a festive wedding and a dark family). Toshiro Mifune and Moriyama performed quite well, especially the former completely lost the feeling of samurai movies. It is still handy to appear in modern themes, and interprets a complex character very clearly (even stronger than those negative characters).



Suspense in the first half of the movie was repeated, and the complex network of characters was simply outlined by the master’s subtle plot and composition. Then, like "The Desire of Life", the high-speed rhythm before the second half of the movie suddenly slowed down, and it even felt that it was about to appear. Something with bright human nature. Of course, the final outcome still has to be understood by the judges personally. If the second half of the movie can also maintain the rhythm of the first half, and let the darkness continue as always, the whole work's criticism of human nature may be more pungent. (By the way, if you ask Hitchcock to shoot the ending, you know, Toshiro Mifune must have a lot of shots.)

    The composition is superb, the subject matter is profound, and the mind is captivating. A wonderful masterpiece by Akira Kurosawa!

    The whole of Japan has been deceived! The process is full of "unexpected" and "unexpected", especially the powerful and anti-routine ending of praise, which brings the movie to a higher level.

The Bad Sleep Well quotes

  • [Nishi drives Wada to the funeral service- his own. Nishi wipes the rain from the windscreen so Wada can look. Wada peers over the dashboard. It is really a magnificent funeral, with wreaths, candles, a picture of him mounted on the top of a wonderful display, and co-workers bowing solemnly. Wada is aghast to find his wife and daughter at the funeral]

    Assistant-to-the-Chief Wada: Why... why are you doing this to me? This is sheer torment! I'd rather be dead!

    [He begins to sob]

    Assistant-to-the-Chief Wada: Please, let me die. I have to die! Wasting this fine funeral-!

    Koichi Nishi: Calm down, now. There's something I want you to hear. You've been to Noir, right? The bar run by Moriyama's mistress?

    [He takes out a large tape recorder, disguised as a valise]

    Koichi Nishi: This is Moriyama and Shirai talking there last night.

    Contract Officer Shirai: [over the tape recorder] What, you came to this kind of place? And so soon after getting married?

    Koichi Nishi: [over tape recorder] You've caught me red handed. I'm ready for a dance.

    Administrative Officer Moriyama: [over tape recorder] Now, now. No need to rush off.

    [Moriyama and Shirai laugh]

    Koichi Nishi: [to Wada] That's when I placed a briefcase with this tape recorder inside it under their table.

    [He shuts the tape off]

    Koichi Nishi: I'll play their conversation for you after they arrive at the funeral.

    [He starts whistling a tune]

  • Public Corporation President Arimura: Nishi's future prospects glow brightly indeed. As for his lovely bride, Yoshiko, she is a talented alumna of Keitoku Girls School and is not only exquisite, but also a rare paragon of unsullied innocence.
