The middle-aged and lower-level warrior who had always liked Miss Pengjiang seemed at a loss like a young man who had just experienced personnel during the sudden visit of Miss Pengjiang. He sat beside him honestly, but he always paid attention to adding tea to Miss Pengjiang, and because of the childhood events he mentioned, he was so nervous that he used the dirty socks hidden in his sleeves as a handkerchief to wipe his cheeks, and then his face flushed with embarrassment. But when Miss Pengjiang's arrogant ex-husband Koda got drunk and made trouble again, Iguchi, who sent Miss Pengjiang home, resolutely came forward to stop it. In the subsequent duel with Koda, Iguchi knocked out Koda who was wielding a real sword with only a wooden stick. . Then we were stunned to discover that this shy man was actually such a martial arts master.
Mr. Yamada always has a good sense of the lens. Most of the shots are medium and close, and the occasional close-up shots are always just right. When Tomoko's brother Iinuma mentioned that someone proposed to Tomojiang while fishing, Iguchi concealed his loss with indifference, but when Iinuma said that he wanted Tomojiang to marry the widowed him, a close-up shot, Iguchi immediately panicked. Feeling at a loss, "Even a good friend can't make such a joke." Even if he finally knew it was true, Iguchi still refused. Iguchi, who has gone through the world, is no longer a dazed and ignorant teenager. It is true that he knows that he has always liked Miss Pengjiang. But this will never be a world full of sentient beings and water. How many mountain alliances and vows have been hurt by firewood, rice, oil and salt. How can Miss Pengjiang, who was born in 400 stone, always be wronged in his family, a lower-level warrior of 50 stone? Even if he did, he probably would Can't bear it.
It's just that Iguchi, who has always acted in a low-key manner, was still unable to escape the strife in the chaotic world at the end of the shogunate. In the game of those high-level figures, Iguchi was sent to execute the reluctant vassal of the opposition because of Yingwei who fought last time. Yugosan Uemon, the first master in the country. Wellhead, who could not refuse, called Pengjiang to sort him out before leaving.
There was only silence in the dimly lit camera, with her back turned, she groomed him in an orderly manner, and the sadness of parting spread in the space. The camera cuts to the front, he hesitates to speak, she also has expectations, and soon back to the back, he slowly talks about the doll he gave her when he was a child; he says that he has always liked her, even when she married as a wife, he also After becoming a family, it has never faded; talking about the marriage proposal a few days ago, suddenly his eyes were burning, he stood up, turned to face her, and gathered up his courage to say, "I will definitely return in triumph, by then If I propose marriage to you, will you accept it?"
She was sad, her expression turned, telling him that he had already promised someone else's marriage. He sat down in a slump, finally unable to hide the loss, said some rude words at a loss, restrained how much affection, and walked towards the death duel with unknown results. The camera cuts, she is still sitting there, and she is also a little lost. Wellkou's somewhat demented mother asked, "Are you the young lady of that family?" She replied in confusion, "I am Pengjiang, the childhood sweetheart of Lord Qingbingwei since childhood. ." Tears welled up in his eyes.
When the duel finally ended, the blood-stained wellhead shuffled home, picked up his daughter at the door, and planned to continue his previous life after life and death. But when Pengjiang appeared in front of him again, he slowly put down his daughter and tentatively touched the back of Pengjiang's hand, thinking that the sudden arrival of the lost happiness seemed to make him feel a little unreal. And when Pengjiang cried and hugged into his arms, all the happiness really poured into his heart, and the warmth overflowed the picture. The love that has gone through the vicissitudes of life makes us feel blessed.
At the end of the film, the daughter of Iguchi, who is already an old woman, said lightly at her parents' tomb, "Miss Pengjiang has finally become our mother. But our family's peaceful life only lasted for three years... My father finally died in the fire of the emperor's army. Next. During the Meiji era, most of my father's old colleagues were on the rise. I often heard them say that Twilight Seibei was really an unfortunate man. But I don't think so. My father loved us deeply, and he was loved by the beautiful Miss Pengjiang. The short life is full of beautiful memories. And I am proud to have such a father." In the warm and moving singing of Inoue Yangshui, I silently recited the last narration. It turns out that happiness is very simple, but we all care too much. to go after the standard recognized by the public.
