Many people say that the wild dog will mention the drunken angel, because the background of the story is after the defeat of Japan. But the differences in the roles of the two films lead to different performances. In Noragu, the calmness of Section Chief Sato checks and balances Murakami's impulses, and the protagonist's actions are more restrained. But the two protagonists of the Drunken Angel are both arrogant and arrogant. One is a stubborn doctor who says that you are good to yourself and I don't care, but has to persuade you over and over again. One is the Mafia who want to save face in Yushu's death. One is highly skilled in medicine but is forced to be indifferent to fame and fortune, the other is all-powerful, benevolent and righteous. The conflict between the two is bound to be intense, even ridiculous. Matsunaga insisted on drinking after being ill, the doctor was angry and couldn't ignore it, and the iconic arrogant "Hum" and other plots made the first half of the plot look a little naive and set a more cheerful tone. But in my opinion, this kind of overly obvious arrogance will be deducted. What I can accept and appreciate is the arrogant arrogance of Tsubaki Jiro, who is not so deliberate.
As Okada was released from prison, everything around Matsunaga was peeled off layer by layer. He realized that morality is just the icing on the cake, and that what really dominates is money and power. Without money, the lover leaves, and the land is not guaranteed. Matsunaga saw the silhouette of the puppet on the bed, suggesting that he was just a manipulative pawn. When he overheard that he was just a tool man under the boss, the world of benevolence and righteousness fell apart, and the boss spilled a sum of money, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Matsunaga's personality has collapsed, splitting into three himself in the mirror, and even dreaming of the symbol of death in a dream, perhaps death is the only way to get rid of the filthy society, the door he opened before dying may symbolize A relief.
Benevolence, righteousness and righteousness reflect the values of militarism. It loses the most important medicine in the mouth of doctors - rationality. It can be shattered at any time, leaving only confusion and negativity, and then disappointing people in this society. Matsunaga is such a person, he is reluctant to admit that he is sick, just like not far from admitting that he is like a puppet in a cesspool, trapped in it, and will sooner or later be destroyed. His lungs are like cesspools, and garbage pours in every day, and it's not enough to just clean up quickly. The people around you are all sources of pollution. Only by staying away from them can you be cured. The ever-happy Minamishincho market and nightclubs express the emptiness of people, the appearance of several banknotes is meant to illustrate the omnipresent money-worshiping, the environment is harsh, the sanitary conditions are extremely poor, and the truth can only be shouted from the mouth of a drunken angel. While the audience and Dr. Sanada were immersed in despair and unable to extricate themselves, the girl recovered smoothly by looking directly at the disease. Just as the adoption of a baby by a woodcutter at the end of "Rashomon" made the monk regain his hope for humanity, the ending of "Drunken Angel" also swept away pessimism. The future belongs to young people, and the country has always had hope.
