I watched "Princess Mononoke" for the second time the day before yesterday, and the shock was unabated.
It is Miyazaki Jun's consistent theme: exploring the relationship between man and nature. It is said that the original film is four hours long, and it was cut to two and a half hours when it was shown in the cinema, so it was a bit obscure. I saw it the second time, and I still can’t say that I understood it completely.
Shanshan represents the Qilin Forest, the power of the ancient gods. The female head is a typical human being, shrewd, selfish, and tough, who will not hesitate to blaspheme for the development of the iron ore factory.
As for Asuka, it is contradictory. In order to protect the villagers from being cursed by the wild boar evil god, he loves Shanshan that way, works hard to protect her, and works hard to stop the female head from logging. He who was caught between the forest and the workshop was so painful.
"Can't humans and forests coexist peacefully?!"
That was Asuka's sad and desperate cry.
The inferior roots of mankind make this impossible.
Groups of wild boars painted patterns on each other with mud, which is the totem of the god of war.
When the female head shot the unicorn beast with a gun full of buds and small flowers, his strange eyes were so sad and sad.
The unicorn is a divine beast in charge of life and death. He gives life and can also take it away. During the day, he is a male deer with huge horns and numerous forks. At night, he has a human figure, a fluorescent blue color, and he patrols the forest full of tree spirits.
The unicorn beast that had lost its head became a god of death, and countless large hands reached into the forest to search wildly, and the trees wherever they went were all withered, and the little tree spirits fell from the trees one after another, and could no longer send out the "crack" Crisp sound.
Finally, Asuka and Shanshan returned their heads to the Qilin Beast. When they woke up, they realized that he had eliminated the curse on Asuka and covered the mountains with green grass.
Although he loves the birds deeply, Shanshan can't let go of the nostalgia for the forest and the hatred for human beings in the end.
So Asuka said:
"You are in the forest, I am in the workshop, let's live well together!"
When did it start, tears filled my eyes, over my cheeks, and dripped to the floor.
Patter.
Patter.
In my heart, it blooms into a blooming Tumi.
