The family in "Tokyo Sonata" all fled and escaped in the later part of the film, but they all returned home in the end. In order to escape, they chose to return to the psychological transition.
Dad: The foundation of authoritarianism at home has collapsed. Apart from the fact that the unemployment is exposed, it is a shame, and the son feels guilty after a mistake. The last thing he wants to be seen by his family is that he is also seen inadvertently wearing a cleaner's overalls. The so-called The man's self-esteem was reduced to ashes. In addition to the shame and despair in his heart, the first thought that came to his mind was to run away. The reason for the return is not well understood. One thought is that he was hit by a car and woke up, feeling the value of life and his family, and still chose to go home. The other is that it is better to live cowardly and humbly than to die, since face is precious, and the price of life is higher, so I still choose to go home.
Mom: I was very tired of the hypocrisy between my family members; I was very tired of my husband's lack of communication and communication, so at first, after the robber came, I half-coerced and half-voluntarily left with him. When I saw my husband working as a cleaner in the shopping mall (doing nothing without discussing it with me), and when my husband was seen, he ran away and left (couldn't bear it, escaped reality), I was even more disappointed, and I didn't want to meet him For such a family, so try to escape. Reason for going home: My understanding is that at night Mom tried to kill herself, but was rescued by a robber who woke up to find that the robber had driven into the sea and committed suicide. When she was walking helplessly by the sea, she happened to meet the sunrise. It is possible that the sun shining on her face also gave her hope.
In fact, I think the second half of the episode is rather ridiculous. My mother clearly fell into the sea, so how could she survive in such a cold day? Besides, they drove a long distance to the beach, how could my mother go back? Even if they could go back , How could it be possible to be still at the seaside at sunrise, and still come home in the morning to make breakfast for the child? Similarly, how did the father and the child walk back? The first half is reality, and the second half is magical.
The eldest son: I don't like a father who pretends to be a poser, and yearns for the "freedom" represented by the United States. After experiencing it for myself, I realized that the so-called freedom is not as beautiful as I imagined. Disillusioned and want to go home for warmth and comfort.
Younger son: Because his father did not support his dreams, he also abused himself at home, and was influenced by classmates who ran away from home. After spending a night in the detention center, I felt that I had nowhere to go before I subconsciously went home.
Maybe this movie is a good movie, but I don't like it. Whether it is good or not and whether you like it or not are two-dimensional evaluation criteria. Whether it is a good movie is relatively objective, and whether you like it is a subjective evaluation.
While watching this movie, I kept smacking the table with anger, gnashing my teeth at the hypocritical and uninteresting family life of the Japanese, always wanting to rush into the computer screen to rescue innocent children, maybe this is what a good movie can bring to people negative touch. This movie also made me feel the difference in family culture between China and Japan. Their families are too polite and indifferent, and they must not marry Japanese in the future.
