I watched all of Jin Min's works after "Weima's House", but the first Jin Min work I watched was the TV work "Delusional Agent", and it was this work that made me admire Jin Min so much. Jin Min's work style is actually distinct. You can almost say that every one of his works is his typical work. In my opinion, "Delusional Agent" belongs to his works with the most profound social analysis. The first part of this film reflects a major feature of Jin Min's work: suspense, a mysterious "baseball boy" created one attack after another. From the perspective of the whole society, this is actually only a partial case, but Jin Min has created a lot of suspense and at the same time shows the fragility of the human social order. We saw that in Tokyo, where the film started in an orderly manner, people who were running for a living were gradually frightened by this incident. Rumors were spread by word of mouth, and their fear was amplified by the media. In this way, a "baseball boy" who has never seen his real body unexpectedly made a The whole society is in chaos. This seems to be an exaggerated dramatic performance, but it has a realistic reflection. It is precisely under the profound social contradictions that the demonstration and turmoil of the society is finally infected and amplified by local radical events, which eventually leads to the collapse and mania of the superficially flashy society. In the later episodes of the film, another feature of Jin Min's work is reflected, that is, the surreal style. Suddenly, the animation becomes more and more absurd, and the social distortion is finally reflected in a surreal environment. Physical distortion. So, here, we see Jin Min's unbridled imagination, a kind of out-of-control picture performance, giving people a strong impact, and finally returning to reality, the return of a seemingly orderly society, as if Waiting for the next reincarnation of anomie.
Suspense + surrealism, this is actually reflected in Jin Min's famous work "The House of Weima", and this film has a stronger flavor of horror and psychological analysis. The entanglement and pain of the protagonist Wuyue Mima in the real and real world and character are also presented in a surreal style. It can be said that the characters and experiences of Wuyue Weima have long appeared in thrillers, but Jin Min has made the chaos under this dual character more bizarre and hideous with more flexible animations. strong infection. Of course, Jin Min's most famous work is still "Millennium Actress", but its style does not express the characteristics of Jin Min that I like to the greatest extent, but the editing of the lens is very distinctive, the time and space are interlaced, gorgeous and moving, I am thinking, Isn't this the funniest movie he's ever made? Although Jin Min's works are famous for their surrealism, as mentioned above, they often point to the reality of society. When I mention it here, I would like to mention his "Mind Jin", which doesn't look like Jin Min, but I like it very much. The Godfather of Tokyo. The style of this work is full of humor, and it even feels a little nonsensical. It is really not like Jin Min's suspenseful and mysterious style, and the chaotic scene of three homeless people discovering an abandoned baby and becoming a parent for it makes the movie Reminds me of a similar Hollywood comedy. However, Jin Min's characteristics are still vaguely reflected in this animation. For example, one line of the story is that they are looking for the parents of their children. This suspense is also constantly interspersed in the film. And the bizarre things they encounter along the way, the absurdity itself is surreal. However, the story is still taking root in reality. What we see is very realistic emotion and pain. The three homeless people also reveal the ups and downs of the marginalized people along the way, but in the end, this film is warm and touching, giving people With the power of devotion to love, it is a unique masterpiece of Jin Min.
Jin Min's most recent work, "Red Pepper", adheres to its consistent quality and style, and at the same time, it feels like a phased summary of Jin Min's animation career. It has the atmosphere and framework of "The House of Weima", and at the same time has the idea of introducing the story into society like "Delusional Agent", and for the performance of surreal reality intertwined with dreams, there are "Delusional Agent" and "Delusional Agent". There are traces of "Millennium Actress", and there is also some flavor of "The Matrix" in the storyline. A variety of elements are intertwined, and the film is still wonderful, but if you have seen his work before, you will lose the feeling of exclamation. Speaking of Jin Min, in fact, he has a lot of works that he has participated in in various forms. For example, an animated short story collection "Trilogy of Memories" shot in 1995, he and Otomo Keyang served as screenwriters, who are full of human future. I was impressed by the dystopian quality of apprehension.
For me, Jin Min belongs to the kind of director who can always look forward to it. He has a distinct style, but each work can always bring you some different feelings. Today, it is a pity that there is no expectation for him. I only hope that his posthumous work "Dream Machine" can be staged as soon as possible, which is also the best commemoration for him. As an animation director, he has shown the skills and profundity that are not inferior to many drama directors, and established his unique style of "deeply analyzing reality with surrealism". He was in his prime, originally a Japanese animation The backbone of his work, he could have presented more amazing works, but all of this is just an assumption now, we can only review his small but high-quality works once again, and experience the endless dreams and endless dreams of an animation filmmaker. fantasy.
