Japan is the initiator of the war and the loser. The Japanese government should be the main responsible party for the war crimes suffered by the Japanese people. It doesn't need to say who the leader of the Japanese government was at that time. He was not democratically elected by the people, so he should bear the main responsibility for this war crime. If it is chosen by the Hitler people, then the war is also chosen by them. Therefore, we must be cautious in democratic elections. Democracy instigated by populism is terrible. The slaughter of civilians is wrong, even under the pretext of armistice and peace. This is true in Nanjing, and so is Nagasaki. You can buy the copyright and make a Nanjing version. There is no need to change the script. Isn’t it a bad idea to use Japanese scripts? But Kurosawa is a master, and the shots are really good. Regarding the favor of rich relatives, in fact, many people feel discouraged. It is also a fact. Just like our reform and opening up, there are relatives from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan in the Mainland. That one is not admired in the village. Just like in the movie, the only thing that is annoying is the old man and the child. It can also be understood that the elderly don't care, and the children don't even care. But the middle-aged person is pitiful and feels angry at work. There is a chance to not be angry, but the family rolls his eyes. But it was also changed.
It is said in the movie that time will make people forget this history. I think maybe time really makes people indifferent to this period of history. But it is difficult for people to forget it. National consciousness, political form, history and culture, will keep this memory being recalled. Especially for a relatively single nation and a country born out of a tragic fate. Perhaps there will be a day when people can forget war without a nation.
Everything in the movie is connected. Like a rose in a song that is sung, an ant on the anniversary of a rose. The umbrella in the heavy rain folds like a rose. The scene in the heavy rain, to see this is really like a real scene. The old lady is dedicated.
