Are you satisfied? If you don't accept it, take a knife!

As a person who embraced communism as a child and capitalism as a youth, I knew what kind of blow and shadow the collapse of my self-belief had on me.
The students in Battle Royale are going through the same forced transformation as I am. It's just that their time is shorter and the process is more extreme.
The students dared to talk back, and Kitano took a knife into his forehead. This is called reality.
The protagonist's father wrote "Come on Akino" all over the toilet paper. This is exactly what I have to say to myself.
come on! Otherwise you will be killed!
The whole island was under the shadow of killing, but the teacher in the rain held up an umbrella for the girl. At that moment, the teacher was a vulgar person, exuding a vulgar humanistic atmosphere, which was a warm and pleasant but useless emotion. After being softened by warmth, is it very boring to face the inevitable mutual killing again?
Children's rejection, avoidance and misunderstanding of adults are inevitable and probably wrong. As a mentor to children, Takeshi Kitano has done a good job without being sloppy, aiming to quickly cultivate children into adults.
Presumably in the teacher's heart, he was also singing "Tell me the truth, I also have a home". When he looked at the weak female student, he would also think of the daughter who hated him. If you are hated by someone you love, you don't care about being hated by people all over the world. That's how men are. So in the eyes of the students, he was cruel and inhuman. Yes, his behavior is indeed inhumane, but he is pointing out the real way of life to students.
When the rhythm of radio gymnastics sounded, and the teacher did the exercises meticulously, I laughed. He's a teacher, he's doing his job, and he never thinks there's anything wrong with him.
After being shot, Takeshi Kitano stood up again because a phone rang, as if he was not injured. What's so strange about this, life is like a drama, so why not answer a phone call in the middle.
In the film, there is often an inner monologue in the tone of an abrupt teenager, um, how pale, these small fresh and romantic, will be washed away by the blood.
Fight with blood to the end!
The little girl at the beginning of the film who lasted to the end, with a resolute and strange smile, is the expression we desperately pursue.
