All black piano keys

"Metropolis" would be basically a dull movie without the song you're listening to now.

"Metropolis" is the posthumous work of Tezuka Osamu, director Rin Taro asked Otomo Keyang to assist in the screenwriting. The style of painting is strictly in accordance with Osamu Tezuka's original work: the character is a triangular outline with a calf thicker than the thigh, like Astro Boy, and the eyes are as bright as a girl's manga. The momentum of the scene is huge, but because I was upside down and watched "Steamboy" first, "Metropolis" can only be insignificant. Scenes, buildings and other CGs are used a lot, and the characters are still pure 2D. Due to the condensed content of the long-form, the emotional explanation is very superficial, and the story is still a vulgar subject of human and machine thinking in the future society, which made me very uninterested in the first half.

But in the last 10 minutes, when the building was about to collapse, and Kenichi was pulling Tima, who was hanging in the air, Ray Charles' voice broke through the air and broke my heart. Choosing the right music, choosing the right music, choosing the right music, choosing the right music can save a movie! The song is called i can't stop loving you, and it brings the film to a sad yet perfect ending.

I originally liked Ray Charles very much, his voice, his life after watching "King of Soul Singer". Just a few days ago, I saw an award-winning draft of this year, an advertisement for a music radio station or a piano shop. It seems that the picture is just a row of pure black piano keys, which simply reads: I miss Ray Charles.
Yeah, miss Ray Charles, miss his dark world.
