civet cats commit crimes

On Saturday, I turned out Hayao Miyazaki's "Variety of Civet Cats". It mainly tells about the rapid development of cities, many forests have been cut down, farmland has been requisitioned, rural land has been turned into urban high-rise buildings, and the civet cats in the forest have nowhere to live. They use transformation techniques to cause various accidents and troubles to construction sites, construction workers, and surrounding residents, so as to warn people to stop land expansion and leave them a pure land. The civet cats held a meeting, invited people from afar to become masters, and worked together to implement various plans. In the end, people finally realized that it was all the civet cats fighting, but the development of the mountain forest could not be stopped, and the living environment of the civet cats was becoming increasingly narrow. Tragedy where a car is run over on the road is a frequent occurrence. The civet cat finally made a difficult decision. Like a fox, he turned into an adult, mixed with humans, and lived a hard life every day. The topic of the film is very heavy and helpless, and the color of the picture is dark, but "My Neighbor Totoro" looks good. But the wonderful transformation into a big coffee show in "Variety Civet Cat" was very enjoyable, and the two old men who were drinking small wine on the roadside beach were stunned.

DVD online shopping failed, it is Italian version, neither English subtitles nor French subtitles, let alone Chinese. I read it with my daughter in Japanese, which I don't understand at all, purely by sight. Daughter said to give five points. There are comments that Takahata is inferior to Miyazaki in the story structure. But this kind of sloppy narrative and group portrait performance is my dish and my pursuit. As for the political orientation of this film, of course, it is not as simple as environmental protection, but close to the Japanese romanticism: turning the local spiritual world (Shintoism, folklore, ritual and wild...) into pantheism and into "supernatural naturalism". This intention, in a nutshell, is certainly not unique to Japan, and is a universal reaction-experience mechanism of modern capitalism.

In the face of reality, no matter how hard a dream is, it is just an egg. Even if he doesn't want to, Peter Pan always has to make a contract with the society and pretend to live as an adult. I don't know where is home, I don't know how to resolve...

Ponkichi: If we get rid of all the humans, that means... we'll never eat tempura again! Or beef jerky! Or popcorn.
Tanuki: Hamburgers! Donuts! Potato chips! Pepperoni pizza! Chicken wings!
[Gonta is moved by this. His eyes tear and his mouth waters]
Gonta: I can taste it!
Seizaemon: So, then, do you think it would be alright if we kept a few humans around, Gonta?
Gonta: [wiping the saliva from his mouth] We have no choice.

Shokichi: Master, would you re-enact the tale of the young samurai who shot the fan?
Hage: Ah. I'll need some help.
[He transforms into Nasu no Yoichi. He flies towards the crowd. Gonta's eyes bulge as he realizes that Master Hage is homing in on him. The crowd of tanuki scramble. Master Hage lands on Gonta and clings to his back. The Taka tanuki struggles, then hops around on all fours and turns into a horse. Hage rides around the clearing. Water seems to flood into the clearing, and Master Hage rides Gonta into it. Before them is an image of the sea, and three boats. One of the boats has the image of a woman standing on the bow of the boat and a fan on the top of the mast. Hage draws a bow and shoots the fan, sending it flying into the air]
