Like most people, when I first saw the title and poster, I thought it was a bitter romantic film. However, after watching the entire film, my heart felt as if it had been violently hit by a heavy object, and it was impossible to restore tranquility for a long time.
In fact, the picture at the beginning of the movie is really beautiful. There are a group of young faces in school uniforms in the classroom, drinking milk while fighting. At this time, I immediately thought of "All About Lily Zhou", a young man in a white shirt in the endless rice field. Then it seemed to be the voice of the teacher speaking, but the students were still playing wildly for themselves, no one cared what she was saying, until she said that she would resign at the end of the month... The students below were so happy that they clapped and cheered, and even left the class without authorization , bullying classmates on the rooftop. One can't help but feel that the classrooms of Japanese middle school students are really bad. The students are arrogant and disrespectful to the teachers, and the teachers are helpless in the face of these lawless children. The teacher's words did not stop, she continued to speak with an indifferent expression. Talking about her personal life, social events, and her 2-year-old daughter's drowning death... She said, "The murderers are students in this class... A and B." The
story started with Mr. Moriguchi's confession, and then related The confessions of the characters appear one by one. Interspersed with great music, a moving soundtrack is an absolutely essential part of an unforgettable movie. There are many bullying of classmates in the film, and the killing scenes are all in slow motion, so after watching the film, you will not feel that this is a bloody film. On the contrary, it increases the delicacy and aesthetic feeling of the film.
Doting and being weak
"Confession"
are all the fault of that woman - Yuko Shimomura.
Mothers in the world are the same, love and protect their children. Naoki's mother, Shimomura Yuko, is a person who loves her children too much and always loves to ramble. Pour everything into the child, even if you know your child has made a mistake, you don't blame too much, but instead pity your child. When the child has a problem, he doesn't know the truth. He just blindly thinks and speculates. It's all the woman's fault and blames the teacher. In the end, when she heard her child tell the truth, the mother completely collapsed. Excessive doting has caused the child's weakness. At this time, if the mother is strong enough, she may be able to take the child out of the predicament. There are also mothers who feel that they are not ready to be successful mothers and that their children make mistakes through their own fault. So, Shimomura Yuko chose an extreme approach, wrote a suicide note, and wanted to take her child to heaven. How could a weak mother be cruel to kill her own child, so in the end she was brutally killed by her own child.
Loneliness and Oedipus
"Confession"
I heard at that time, the voice of precious things disappearing - Shuya Watanabe.
Xiu Zai, who has been living in deep thoughts of her mother, seems to be the cruelest character in the story. He thinks that he has blood as good as his mother, so he has to do something big to make himself famous and make his mother proud. Being too obsessed with one thing makes him arrogant and indifferent. "Following the laws of nature, when a fool meets a fool, a fool will be born." He described his father's life after remarriage in this way. It can be seen that Xiu Zai has ignored all people. People all over the world are fools, and they are all used by him. tool, and no one really understands him. Children who have lost their mother's love look at the world with such eyes and live in such extreme ways. I still remember the picture of my mother leaving. The children of the same age were playing happily while blowing bubbles, but he only heard the sound of important things disappearing. Seeing this, people feel more sorry for this child than they are angry with him. If in the process of growing up, he had not been abandoned by his mother and felt warm family affection, would he still be lonely enough to want to kill? All things, including living, just want to relieve boredom because of boredom.
"Confession"
I don't feel alive - Naoki Shimomura.
Compared with Shuya Watanabe, who has excellent grades, Xiaozhi is too ordinary and too inconspicuous. Always being bullied at school and being called useless. When Xiu Zai had a purpose to approach him and be friends with him, Xiao Zhi's heart was warmed, and he thought he had found a friendship. Just trying to prove myself. I'm also a person who doesn't have many happy memories of childhood, so I can especially understand Xiaozhi's state of mind. Always being bullied by strong classmates, hiding in a corner and crying, hating and hating those who bully the weak, wanting them all to die. The fragile and sensitive heart can finally be with people, and it is natural to give everything and give it all. In the end, he got betrayal. Therefore, he threw Moriguchi-sensei's daughter into the water and drowned, killing her loving mother inhumanly. How ridiculous, Xiu Zai, who has always wanted to kill people, has not succeeded, but he has succeeded. He is not useless, he is a good boy in the eyes of his mother, and he is excellent in learning and sports.
"Confession"
teacher, this class is so weird - Kitahara Mizuki.
If everyone is blindfolded and lost, Kitahara Mizuki is the most sober person in comparison. She sympathized with the teacher's loss of her daughter, hated the bullying of the weak classmates in the class, and was also an insecure child. She believed that the teacher did not put AIDS-infected blood in the milk of Xiuzai and Xiaozhi. She believed that the teacher was just for them to rehabilitate and understand that life is precious. She also believed that Xiuzai would not be cruel enough to kill people. However, everything she believed betrayed her. "Xu Zai is just because he is too lonely, misses his mother too much, and wants to attract her attention..." Only he could see Xiu Zai's mind, she was the only one who understood Xiu Zai, and Xiu Zai killed her. Teacher, life is too trivial.
Mother's Love and Revenge
"Confession"
What is Life - Yuko Moriguchi
Yuko Moriguchi, this teacher is telling her students what life is in her way. An unmarried mother, a teacher whose fiance was infected with AIDS and who advocates to be friends with students, this teacher who has experienced a lot of pain in her life, her daughter was killed by her students, like a prank. What may be more distressing to her is that after she found out the truth, no one regretted it. What is life in their eyes? Moriguchi began her elaborate revenge, saying, "I won't let them go." However, the teacher with an indifferent expression and a strange smile on the corner of his mouth burst into tears in the rain. No one understands the preciousness of life, selfishness, ruthlessness, and ruthlessness have blinded people's hearts. This society already does. Her revenge is to let them go into a living hell, maybe into a desperate situation and then be reborn.
This is a confession of life, a confession of love.
The dark clouds in the sky did not disperse in the end. Like a storm could come at any time.
