The movie "Eel" has been famous for a long time, and after watching it, I know that it is related to fish, but the protagonist is still human. This name always feels like some science and education film. Eel rice seems to be very good in Japanese cuisine, and some people specialize in this bite. Not only is it closely related to daily life, but also the fate of the eel is extraordinary. Swim to the equator to lay eggs, and then swim back. They only lay eggs once in their lives, and die after laying. Every eel that swims back to Japan has experienced a difficult journey. The eel is the purest aquatic life in the world. It only likes to live in unpolluted water. This film is about a person, and he likes talking to eels the most. When he talked to Eel, he was not as postmodern and sexy as Tony Leung talking to the towel and soap. He was just ordinary, as peaceful as a family member. In fact, in this world, there is no one who can speak like this for him. People cannot communicate, especially when talking about their hearts, but it’s okay with eels. In essence, this man is clean, because he is clean and cannot bear his wife's stealing joy and anger and kills his wife. But he is also unclean, because as a murderer, in the eyes of the world, he is guilty and stained. The only thing that can represent his essence of being clean and clean is his most beloved pet, the eel. So, there are two protagonists in this movie, he and his eel. The eel represents nature, and only by living in harmony with nature can he find tranquility. He has an essential identity with nature. Returning from metropolitan Tokyo to rural towns, many Japanese movies in recent years have reflected this theme. Returning to the countryside means a change in lifestyle and a change in concepts, which is to get closer to nature and reflect on urban life. The depression and sorrow of human beings regained the power to move forward in the sincere and warm communication between people in nature. Both "Udon" and "Encouragement" have similar themes. As far as this type of theme is concerned, "Eel" may be the original work. The movies of 1997, to this day, are still peaceful and moving. Its theme is commonplace today, and how to get along with nature is still a hot topic. The simple and straightforward country folks in there, we have felt their enthusiasm in the "Sunset at Three Crest" series, and they have appeared again and again. Perhaps the most memorable thing in this movie is the performance of Yakusho Koji. Yakusho Koji starred in this movie when he was 40 years old. He had just risen to fame when he starred in "Talking Love, Dancing and Dancing". The depression of middle-aged office workers in the performance seems to have become his specialty. The roles he plays are dignified and often don’t speak much , The eyes are peaceful, polite, but always keep a certain distance from people, it is the common ethnic group in modern Japanese cities. As a person with a secret, he chose to restart his life in a small town, and opened a barber shop with the barber skills he learned in prison. In the meantime, in addition to dealing with fish, raising eels, and fishing, he has completely enclosed himself in a shell. But life is still invading him in various ways. Including a woman who is pregnant with someone else's child. He killed his wife, but saved the woman who committed suicide by taking medicine. Life continues with wonderful coincidences. Where to fall or where to get up. The Japanese don't look at the past life or the next life, they just want to live in the present. After the suicide of his wife, he could no longer face the woman under the mountain, and encountered a breakthrough. The woman who was saved by him was also his reliever. Yakusho Koji's performance is very restrained, I can't help but think of Senya. Senyazhi’s acting skills are sighing. The weak and hypocritical husband in "Rashomon", the idealistic "idiot" in "Idiot", and the man with complex personality but pure nature in "Floating Clouds" were all acted alive by him. Yakusho Koji’s play path is relatively narrow by comparison, but it seems that the best endorsement of urban white-collar middle-aged men is none other than him. No matter how courteous these characters are and how they close themselves, he has shown a sense of dignity. No longer the same as the protagonist in Ozu's movie. The protagonists are biased towards the heart, and interacting with people is not their focus. They are always indifferent, but they can still go on firmly. Seeing that Yakusho Koji has a strange sense of stability and a sense of identity, it seems that no matter how difficult the situation is, he can always find a way out. The background of the city gradually faded. He merged into the country and was redeemed. This theme should be the theme of Japanese movies for a long time. Such a peaceful appearance and firm heart is an ideal person-the son of nature. He has a strong self-healing power. He will never forget to regain the connection with nature. The dialogue between him and the eel also represents him. Confess the most secret heart and self to nature. The restoration of mankind by nature is miraculous. People who have lost themselves can always find themselves in the heart-to-heart communication with nature. Perhaps the role of Yamashita represents Imamura's sustenance for the "newcomer", that is, to get along with nature in harmony and gain strength from it. A loser in a city like Yamashita can only go on firmly in the embrace of nature. In the background of nature, living together with a loving and righteous woman, this is a picture of Imamura's expectations for the future and a picture of it. group.
