The first search was Utada Hikaru's version of "FYI", and then I saw on Baidu that there were many versions, and by the way, I knew the origin of the song - the movie "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence".
So, I watched the movie today, and I also found a lot of music versions, such as guitar, guzheng, folk music and so on...
I don't know why, watching this reminds me of "Yu Fa Du". Obscure things are surging. Maybe because same-sex love is often unspeakable, right? The public still rejects it from the mainstream. Although I don't think it's against it, if it really happened around me, it would still feel weird, right?
One of the places that impressed me the most was the scene where Lawrence and HARA talked at night in the sick room. The Japanese say, you are cowardly, don't you feel ashamed? "We don't call it a shame, it's part of the war, and we certainly don't like being captives, we're waiting for victory," Lawrence said. The Japanese say, sophistry, you are just afraid of death. Lawrence said suicide is a coward's escape. The Japanese said again, I have dedicated my life to the emperor. Lawrence said, aren't you still alive?
Lawrence is indeed Japanese, not only in language, but also in culture. He feels a sense of cowardice and insecurity in the entire Japanese nation. Vulnerable people tend to look violent, while truly powerful people look humble.
JACK, in my opinion is a child, his heart has been stuck in the garden of childhood, and his brother's singing is still haunting in his dreams. One of the most defining characteristics of people growing up is that they no longer remember childhood hurt and guilt about a friend, or that the self-blame for that incident has faded away. JACK, maybe he put things in the box and never forgot. 32 years old, but alone, because I feel that I will hurt people, and I can't protect the people I love. He said he embraced war. Because he found escape (or redemption?). Inoue was attracted by his self-confidence and heroic spirit, but he did not know that the temperament of laughing at the thirst for drinking the blood of the Huns came from the repression and release of past experiences.
The captain was about to lose his head, he stood up, started the music, sorted his clothes, walked over, and stood in front of the well. A hero? However, why do I see a desire to die?
However, I can't see Jack's bad thoughts about Inoue, rather, he saw Inoue's heart and saved the captain's life by doing so, but he also solved the knot in his heart.
As for the ending, I don't have much thought so far.
Hara can dress like that, chant and write every day, and the attitudes of the two camps towards prisoners of war are really different. BTW: Hara, why didn't you kill yourself? What do you call Bushido spirit?
