"Tony Takiya" is a successful poetic film as well as a successful literary film. It succeeded because the director knew very well that this was what it was going to do. Between the words of Haruki Murakami, there is a strange air flow, which covers the whole story, making the viewers slightly touched, but still unable to see the truth of the story directly under the refraction of the air mass. That magical feeling that is both appropriate and somewhat deviated is Haruki Murakami's very special and charming brushstrokes.
However, how to convert such brushstrokes from a blank paper into a three-dimensional film without any deviation has become a nightmare for the adaptor.
I have to say it again, "Tony Takiya" is indeed a very successful film remake. The reason is not that it unbiasedly shot Haruki Murakami in everyone's mind, but that it believes in the focus of its shooting. , so the atmosphere of the whole movie, with this center of gravity, leads the audience to shake, and finally still gathers on the lonely Tony Takiya.
The impression of the novel is really not deep. I still remember that I read this short story under the needs of the classroom. The only thing I remember is that at the end of the chapter, I wrote a sentence for Tony Takiya. Tony Takiya, finally returned to being alone again.
That is the final knot of the novel. It gathers all the emotions in the short story. The movie also grasps this principle, turning this wife with a sweet smile, capable of doing things but having a habit of buying clothes, into a beautiful color block with a point. It highlights the nihilistic alienation of Tony Takiya.
Tony Takigo's real name is Tony Takiya. He is a man with an English name but a Japanese surname, who does not belong to any world. He is a man with an English name but a Japanese surname. He is a man who spends all his energy on drawing the veins of leaves when he learns to sketch for an hour, and does not capture the beautiful and abstract man. So Tony Takiya grew up drawing mechanical illustrations, stubbornly obsessed with those precise details, what beauty, ideas, were absent in his life, until his wife appeared, his life was placed in color, but in While feeling good, his loneliness was intervened, and he began to fear losing his wife, but he was also confused about losing his loneliness.
Haruki Murakami is so charming because of the unidentified narrative in his story, the wife who relied on buying clothes to prove her survival, who only knew Tony Takiya who painted machines, and the girl who later cried while hugging her clothes, There seems to be no intersection between them, but through an elegant and graceful gesture, they tell the loneliness that they can't interfere with without self-pity or self-pity.
The characters of Haruki Murakami seem to regard loneliness as a strange pattern on the palm or a bulging birthmark on the brow, entering life in a destined way, so at the beginning or the end of their destiny, they carry the loneliness of their happiness and know their destiny. Accept joy and sorrow with an indifferent smile.
Maybe everyone's reading atmosphere is different, but fortunately, the director of "Tony Takiya" Ichikawa Hayabusa explained this point in his own precise way, from music, video, acting, and all aspects to shape the belongings. Himself, and at the same time Murakami-style loneliness.
Miyazawa Rie, in the film, uses Tony's wife, the girl who came to apply for the job, to explain the loneliness under those gorgeous clothes in the way of one person playing two roles.
Perhaps the word loneliness is too accurate to describe, because what the novel and the movie have in common is the very vague mood conveyed by the "Murakami style", but the movie tells us through a character that the original sadness and pain, no matter how it is used. No matter how you name it, it breathes and continues like life. The things that the wife takes off for her livelihood are put on and off by another girl. It turns out that thoughts and emotions flow in a person's life through various forms. In the movie, that person is Tony Takiya.
Later, he sold his wife's clothes and his father's treasures, leaving only an empty room. He continued his father's sorrow and had nothing to do with this world. So at the end of the movie, Tony Takiya tried to broadcast the phone call to the girl, which should be the last attempt in his life.
He tried to bring the color that his wife gave him back to life, but the phone call that the girl didn't receive, told an indifferent tragedy in a very Murakami-style tone:
Tony Takiya finally had to be alone.
