Stressed the happiness so many times

When I watched it many years ago, I also always looked forward to the appearance of the groom. I wanted to see what the groom who had been discussing for so long looked like? But this time, after forgetting the details of the plot, I no longer wonder what the groom looks like. I think that's what this father-daughter relationship is all about. Easterners even shy away from the word Electra. But here is the Electra complex. Noriko made it clear that she was a jealous type, and the Ono she liked was engaged, but she was still happy. I didn't go to the show together, and what I left was just a touch of regret. But when he heard that his father was going to remarry, his reaction was definitely jealous, shocked, angry, and even dejected. The idea that my father's remarriage is a scandal is just a complicated confusion. Of course, there is a premise that father and daughter get along well, understand and care for each other, and live comfortably and happily together. But that can't be a reason for her not to expect other people or other lives. The so-called love, probably the most important thing is the kind of happiness that is incomparable with other people. Live and travel with my father. She was as happy as a bird in spring.

The wall clock hanging on the wall of Qiuzi's house in the film reminds me of the faceless man in Spirited Away.

I remembered the movies "Wangxiang" and "Rainbow Story" that I watched a few days ago. During the war, the people were struggling to survive and could not eat enough. At that time, you can live in peace, and you can eat a good meal and be as happy as heaven. In "Spirited Away", eating is not a problem, but accidentally became a pig of desire. This film is bland and warm, without any horrific suffering or a big desire to devour people. But there is such an indescribable emotion and a tug of choice (the father emphasized the happiness so many times in order to convince his daughter). In short, no matter what the situation, people have to bear it.

    Electra's mind of an older woman.

    The Electra complex is so strong and prominent that the film is a bit bold. 4 and a half stars.

    Prompter: The name of that man from long ago. The scent of wild orange flowers mingles together with the sprig of blue flag in his hair.

    Nô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorus: Iris and blue flag, so much alike: Whose color is deeper? Crying in the trees...

    Prompter: The cicada sheds its brocade gown...

    Nô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorusNô chorus: Revealing sleeves as white as deutzia blossoms, as white as the snow. Day breaks. Pale purple clouds to the east herald Amida Buddha's coming. The pale purple iris opens its petals to enlightenment along with the folds of the heart. All the earth will be enlightened, even the flowers and trees. All the earth will be enlightened, even the flowers and trees...

  • Aya Kitagawa: What's there to think about? Go on, marry him. Good men are rare these days. Grab him.

    Noriko Somiya: But I don't like it.

    Aya Kitagawa: What?

    Noriko Somiya: Arranged marriage.

    Aya Kitagawa: Don't be picky. You'd never marry unless someone arranged it.

    Noriko Somiya: But...

    Aya Kitagawa: It's true, isn't it? If you found someone you liked, would you walk up and propose? You're not that bold. You'd just blush and squirm in your seat.

    Noriko Somiya: That's true.

    Aya Kitagawa: An arranged marriage suits someone like you.
