In the film, the protagonist, Haruko, has made a miserable explanation for the fateful life of the female protagonist, Haruko. The director filmed this masterpiece of feminine realism with a forbearing but turbulent tone. The form of the period drama is a reference to the feudal system and ethics, and the fate of women in any era is always the eyes of the artist. Advanced achievements such as the "Women's Rights Protection Law" born in the new era do not represent civilization, but delineate the natural attributes of women's status.
The maid Haruko, who was attached to the patriarchal aristocracy, fell in love with a samurai from a low birth. She was not tolerated by the system at the time, and ended up being expelled from Kyoto and the downturned samurai executed by capital punishment. Grievances and confession are nowhere to be heard, and the call for freedom is just an incompetent protest under the knife.
Haruko’s acceptance as a concubine by the Edo daimyo Matsudaira’s master is succumbing to her patriarchy and her own destiny. What she can change is the continuation of the powerful family’s incense, and for her own destiny, it’s just a disaster in another place. It's just a continuation.
Out of the jealousy of Mrs. Matsudaira and the use of female physiological values, Haruko gave birth to the Matsudaira family and was ruthlessly expelled from the house. She became a prostitute for her livelihood, but she abides by her noble dignity in the face of money. This precious dignity attracted the care and love of her guests. When Chunzi was about to entrust her to this person, she discovered that this person was a wanted man in the government. Fate made an innocent joke.
Misery accompanied by Haruko’s fluency and loss, she temporarily leaned against a merchant’s house. Here, Haruko worked as a servant for the mistress. She had a delicate relationship between women to cover her mistress’s secrets, but was magnified by jealousy. Destroyed, Haruko lives on the street again, until she marries the kind-hearted fan house shop owner.
When Happiness beckoned to Haruko on the road, the kind-hearted fan house owner was stabbed to death by a robber on the way to livelihood. The accidental encounter reflects the flustered social conditions of that era. It seems accidental, but it is the inevitable background of the era that stifles the happy life. .
Chunzi, who was full of thoughts, entered the nun's nunnery, but was deliberately entangled by the man and was expelled from the nunnery. He had no choice but to become a prostitute again. When a woman wants to survive, when gods and Buddhas are indifferent, betraying the flesh is the final law of survival.
After more than a dozen years of Spring and Autumn, the Spring and Autumn Period has passed away. His own son inherited the great cause of the Songping family. For his son's future, Chunzi didn't dare to recognize each other, so she had to take a look from a distance.
Then continue the wandering journey.
That's how the confidante has become a fate. Compassion can be given to charity and appear great, or it can be given to a hard-fought Haruko and appear pale. The grieving Mizoguchi Kenji blindly created sadness without leaving a little room for the light, and in the shadows he could only sigh this solemnity.
