keep living

The film I wanted to watch two years ago has only been completed today. Maybe I will continue to live, and maybe there will be an unexpected turning point. The

film is nearing the end, my mother is crying on the beach, the sea is flooded all over the body; my father is hit by a car On the side of the road, unconscious; the youngest son Kenji was taken to the detention center for evading fares; the eldest son Aguiyuan was in the Middle East battlefield. The seemingly hopeless plot twists and turns. There are two clear tire marks on the beach, no one Knowing if the robber drove into the sea, only to see his mother standing by the sea, her face becoming more and more clear; Dad woke up on the side of the road full of fallen leaves, staggering along the road; Kenji was freed from prosecution and thrown out of custody So; the U.S. military has reduced its troops in the Middle East. My mother came home and said to Kenji, who was sitting alone at the dining table, "I'm hungry, I'll go and eat." Dad appeared in front of the mother and son in a cleaner's clothes, wounded. The three of them ate quietly.
In the last few minutes, everyone slowly gathered for Kenji's piano performance. It seems that no one expected that such an inconspicuous child would play an appealing tune, without applause, in the crowd Under the watchful gaze, the parents and the younger son disappeared into the camera.

Let me talk about the next two scenes that I find amusing:
1. Agui asked his father to sign before joining the army. Half a head, my father's momentum was weakened in an instant. I couldn't help laughing when I saw this...
2. The robber didn't grab the money, so he was ready to leave. He opened the door and went back to take off his hood, and heard the police car Tweet ran into the door again, only to see Koji Yakusho's face dangling there.

    Whether it is to escape or deceive, no matter how cruel life is, it is necessary to live in desperation, even if it is full of despair. . . PS: Kiyoshi Kurosawa's idea is very good, but the film mutates from realism to "surreal magic" at 2/3, especially the housewife and the thief having sex on the beach, I don't like it, well, I will continue to watch it tidbits go

    I really love it, the ending is so beautiful, and I cry so much. Whether it is the theme type or the scene scheduling, Kurosawa Kiyoshi is a top-level supervisor who can constantly surprise people! So directly put so many social propositions in one breath in this one, which has triggered drastic changes in personal/gender/ethnic mentality, which is still very rare for him, and the constant mention of China makes people I feel a deep sense of anxiety in Japanese society. Life may not be able to start all over again, but it may be possible to become an existentialist overnight. Hope will also appear in the process of constant existence and struggle, right.
