If you get close, you will die, if you are too far, you will get close

The black image on the wall The vaporized afterimage of the nuclear explosion site seems to be the critical surface between this side and the other side, or the traces/embers of the proof that once existed, pointing to a kind of emptiness, a kind of absence but trying to be remembered of unwillingness. It is reminiscent of the alienation and "loneliness of death" between people in contemporary Japanese society. I remembered the faceless man in Spirited Away, who was also a shadow between the virtual and the real, and the lines it said to Xiao Qian: "Silence しい, Silence しい". The faceless man takes shape because of his bonds with others, and the person in the circuit disappears because he is invaded by endless loneliness.

The thick fog behind Ryosuke and Michiko's driving camera, and the strong and distorted backlight in the room full of "Suke け て" reminds people of Atami Inspector Atami's last school bus was shrouded in strong light when the school bus crossed the narrow boundary, which seemed to come from The other side of the world.

In Taguchi disk, a labyrinth of endless depth is constructed through camera and computer screen projection, and the enchantment with red tape is the same as "the secret room manufacturing method", "permanent death is endless loneliness", people can't escape from the endless, more Terrible is the continuation of the never-ending loneliness to the afterlife.

And people's loneliness does not disappear because of companionship. "Others are hell." When releasing the AT force field, one has to bear the risk of returning to the sea of ​​LCL and self-elimination. will be close."

My favorite is the sentence that Ryosuke said while watching Chunjiang in the train: "I am here. Even if there is no other person, it doesn't matter." Because of the impossibility of reaching each other, people choose love to face difficulties. Maybe it's more impressive.

    4.5 The secret room is the hub, the general brain, the entity that can rule out the irresistibility of time, the enchantment, the curse that blocks the mind, the choice forced by shock, the consciousness, the doomsday leader who controls the no-man’s land, and the The time that distinguishes reality is the holy hand that carves life, the simple concept of possession, the ghost, the ubiquitous communication without the medium, the death that cannot change the status quo, the ghost, the palpable phantom, the inescapable Shadow.

    "Death will definitely come. Anyway, if we gather together, we may be happier. However, we continue to move forward and go farther and farther." The horror and discomfort at the mental level is much higher than the shocking one. Whether it is the image expression or the theme setting, it is better than the generally recognized "Midnight Bell" and "The Grudge" series, my favorite one so far. Kiyoshi Kurosawa!
