Takahata Isao should be a Japanese director familiar to many people. "Grave of the Fireflies" and "The Fairy Tale of the Years" are my favorite animated films, and I still remember the cute confession of the ten-year-old boy in "The Fairy Tale of the Years": "Then ...that...like...like, compared to sunny days and rainy days, what kind of weather do you like?" "Yin...cloudy", "me too". And "Grave of Fireflies", I watched it a long time ago, I still can't forget the narration of the boy "I am already dead, what was the situation at that time", the boy's sister died of hunger caused by the war, and I was crying. And this "Kaguya Story", which has attracted much attention from the Oscars, tells a Japanese folklore story lightly. The style of painting is very unique, like a beautiful watercolor painting, but also like a sketch. two words to describe.

However, this film did not give me as much love as the previous two films, except that it was a profound improvement and innovation in the style of painting. Maybe because this legend is too far away from me to empathize with it.

    Folklore uses the simple style of painting, new bottles of old wine, and gentle style slowly. Kaguya Ji scorned the powerful and frustrated the pretenders, and couldn't help but smile. It also looks at male-centered social phenomena from a female perspective. I don't want to be an accessory to anyone, I just want to get close to nature freely and happily. Japanese cultural heritage and concepts are undoubtedly revealed in the film, full of Zen and a lot of aftertaste.

    This is undoubtedly the most beautiful Ghibli movie I have ever seen. The watercolors are simple and delicate, and the Hisaishi, which is always syrupy, makes the soundtrack also rare to bring out the peace of mind. Heiankyo, Gagaku, and strange talk are simply a feast for those who love period dramas. . The earthly flowers, birds, fish and insects love, hate, hate, and delusion, and the bliss of the other world is cold and peaceful. Every world is nostalgic. It is better to return. The world of Taketori Monogatari is the ultimate truth, goodness and beauty. Tatsuya Nakadai originally matched the charcoal-boiler~

The Tale of The Princess Kaguya quotes

  • The Princess Kaguya: [singing] Go round, come round, come round... come round, oh distant time. Come round, call back my heart. Come round, call back my heart. Birds, bugs, beasts, grass, trees, flowers. Teach me how to feel. If i hear that you pine for me, i will return to you.
