The more complicated things are, the simpler it is to say

This movie by Ozu Yasujiro is a story of a neighbor in the neighborhood, and it mainly revolves around the life of one of them. The film's narrative is very gentle, however, everything just seems to be calm, and there is no lack of dark waves between people in life and between people and destiny in the plain narrative. The adult’s world is sometimes a little more complicated, and the contrast with the child’s world highlights that adults sometimes want to simplify complex things, while children want to complicate simple things.
After reading it, there is a warm and open feeling. Because the child's world is relatively simple and simple, and the experience is less, sometimes watching things is more extreme and complicated, and the other side is sometimes very specific and simple. And as we grow up, our knowledge and experience are also improving. Our minds can actually accommodate hundreds of rivers and become very broad, and we can cultivate into a real sense of calmness and lightness, to appreciate the simplest in life. Or, we may also become narrow-minded people, people with different hearts, and all kinds of people come to exist in this world. This is also one of the reasons for the complexity of the adult world.

    Xiaoyong is very smart, and the parallel montage breaks through the monotony and lack of a single narrative. It was originally a comedy, so it needs some fresh and interesting elements

    It’s really good to watch Ozu as it’s New Year’s Eve. Japan really makes people love it and hate it. The good and evil shared by human nature, starting with small details, are plain and flamboyant, and the current mentality is not enough to create such a story , my anger and depression are too heavy.
