"Trolley Mania", the first color Kurosawa Akira film, with a fateful and pessimistic ending, is an important and tragic work in the director's career. Suicide, although attempted suicide, also deeply affected the director's future works and outlook on life, and even influenced Hollywood producer Akira Kurosawa's "Ran". As a turning point in the second half of Akira Kurosawa's life, the director's life can be divided into three stages, 40 years. 50 years. In 1964, he was the heyday of glory, and then his life was full of twists and turns. In 1964, the proposal for the Tokyo Olympics planned by him was rejected. Warner's "Tiger Tiger" budget was accused of seriously exceeding the standard. The company kicked him out of the crew. Japan's film industry developed in the 1950s. , With the impact of television in the 1970s, the film industry fell to a trough. The director was also covered up by the torrent of history. When I returned to the work, I personally felt that the color of the film was rich, and people of all colors were supported by the theme color. For example, two families were mainly yellow and red, like the five-color army in Zhang Yimou's "The Great Wall". , is also like the color of the army's flag in Akira Kurosawa's "Chaos". In terms of plot creativity alone, the boy in the film simulates the scene where he is a tram driver and operates the tram without physical objects, which reminds me of Chen Kaige's award-winning short film "Hundred Flowers Deep" place".
