cobweb of desire

The misty and intricate spider forest is also a reflection of people's true hearts. When we take a self-portrait in the mirror, who dares to say that we really see ourselves clearly? Who can guarantee that there is not a Lady Macbeth in him who has been instigating himself to pursue more wealth, higher status, more power, more fame, or more love and lust, You take risks again and again. The satisfaction of desire is like putting out a fire with pay. The more you want, the more you want. The beaded net of desire is bound, and the more you struggle, the deeper you sink. Desires stand in the wall, but desires are really just sins, can people really be free from desires and desires? How can the inner Macbeth and Mrs. Macbeth play happily?

    Akira Kurosawa almost completely materialized Toshiro Mifune in his image world. Toshiro Mifune in Akira Kurosawa's films is not a flesh and blood person, he is more like the consistent core symbol in Akira Kurosawa's films. Every time he stares , anger, and hysteria are just a twilight-like reproduction of the original image of his body. Like Banderas in the early Almodovar films, it refers to a pure and highly concentrated entity of sensuality and desire. The same is true of Toshiro Mifune. His masculinity and sturdy sexiness are the most dazzling ideograms in Akira Kurosawa's video world.

    Re-watching @phenomena is not only a human tragedy that is universally applicable to Shakespeare, but also Macbeth, who belongs to Kurosawa full of oriental temperament. The atmosphere is minimalist and rhythm restrained, but it expands infinite psychological description space; almost all conflicts and violence are not directly displayed, but fear spews out like a shadow on Mifune's ferocious face due to hallucinations, making people feel chills down their spines. The symbol of desire and the hint of death are all shrouded in a thick fog that cannot be dissolved in the cycle of sadness and reincarnation.

Throne of Blood quotes

  • Taketori Washizu: I am terribly drunk...

  • Old Ghost Woman: [singing] Men are vain and death is long, And pride dies first within the grave, For hair and nails are growing still, When face and fame are gone, Nothing in this world will save, Or measure up man's actions here, Nor in the next - for there is none, This life must end in fear, Only evil may maintain, An afterlife for those who will, Who love this world - who have no son, To whom ambition calls, Even so - this false fame falls, Death will reign - man dies in vain.
