Since "Never Stop", it was Hirokazu-eda who has been dealing with the subject of "family", which is closely related to his own life. The reason for creating "Never Stop" was the death of his mother, and he needed to make a film about her to get through the grief he had to face in life; the inspiration for creating "Like Father Like Son" was that he was gradually estranged from his daughter because of his work , I fell into thinking about time and blood; I filmed the TV series "The Way Home" because of the death of my father. It can be seen that these films of Hirokazu Koeda are rooted in his own life. His new film "Deeper Than the Sea" is still the same. It is Hirokazu Koreeda who places life memory and life experience among the characters in the film. Many people see "Deeper Than the Sea" as a companion to "Never Stop", and it looks like that. They have a similar character structure (the characters and their positions on the poster are the same), and the details of life that echo each other. From the mother's few words, the yellow butterfly with deep affection has crossed ten years to come again. From the final expression, they are different. "Walking On" says that in the journey of life, children's concern for their parents is always one step slower than remorse, and it focuses on the estrangement between generations; The topics discussed in "Deeper Than the Sea" are closer to the director's previous work "Miracle". It talks about how broken families maintain close relationships after separation, and how frustrated people can live in peace with life. The protagonist of "Deeper Than the Sea" is called a lot. Following his viewpoint and whereabouts, we get a full picture of this family member. He dreams of becoming a novelist and won a literary award many years ago. The current life is miserable, divorced from his wife, and his son follows his wife. He works in a detective agency and gets paid to probe the messy emotional lives of others. As soon as he gets the money, he goes to bet on horses or buy lottery tickets (which he also sees as a dream) so that he can't pay rent, utilities, or even his son's support. It can be said that he is a complete failure. He dreams of writing novels, but he never writes novels again. As a detective, he also used the excuse that he was gathering materials for writing novels. He did not take the job that could bring him income seriously, and would rather borrow or steal valuable items from his family to pawn them. And he pinned his hopes on life on small-probability events like betting on horses and winning lottery tickets. In fact, he fell into the quagmire of life, wandering around and lingering. He became the one left behind by life. It was Hirokazu Kore-eda who said in an interview that about fifteen years ago, he wanted to make a movie with the group as the background, namely "Air Dolls". At that time, due to limited conditions and the subject matter of air dolls was too sensitive, he could not work with the group. representative The negotiation was successful. The filming of "Deeper than the Sea" finally came true. Dandi is conceived as a kind of platform for young people to stay briefly and then lead to a new life. Because of the recession, many people stayed until the children grew up and left, and they grew old with Dandi. "So Dandi, like the male protagonist, has stagnated for a certain period of time." Dandi was left behind by the times. So we can see that it is Hirokazu Koreeda who closely connects the characters and the space of the film. In fact, many mothers, his wife Hiroko, and their son Shingo are also people who have been left behind by life. Many mothers have been trapped in housing estates all their lives. Her dream is to move out of the low-class housing estates where she lives, but her husband and son were "unsatisfactory" and failed to do so. A lot of chasing dreams and escaping from life, Hiroko had to start a new relationship to better take care of his son Zhenwu and his own future. Zhenwu lacks the company of his father and needs to follow his mother to accept a new family relationship. It was Hirokazu Kore-eda that the children in the movie were all precocious, and the character of Zhenwu was inherited from his father. He was weak and cowardly, and faced the choice of life and dreams. All the key characters in the film lead unsatisfactory lives and face life choices, which is naturally reminiscent of Hirokazu Kore-eda's masterpiece "Miracle". In "Miracle", two sons follow one of them to live in different places because their parents are divorced. They have a naive dream that they can escape their hard life by making a wish when two high-speed trains meet. In the end, the elder brother Hang Yi did not make a wish and chose to embrace the world; the younger brother Ryunosuke changed his wish and chose to forgive his father who pursued his dreams freely and willfully. They grow up in an instant, embracing a less than ideal life. "Miracle" takes a child's point of view, the presentation of content is more trivial, and the expression of emotions is also more enthusiastic. And "Deeper than the Sea" is relatively gloomy and low. It is Hirokazu Kore-eda who used a typhoon to give the family a short-lived exit from life, and used the ties between relatives to bridge the imperfections and rifts in life. The mother acts as a "lubricant" for the family, persuading Shingo about her father's views, and working to reunite her son and daughter-in-law. In one detail, the mother wiped off the curry from her clothes for a lot of time, and inadvertently told her daughter-in-law that "no matter how old you are, someone must be there to accompany her", hoping that the daughter-in-law could change her mind. On this night, they bathed, cooked, sat around, and talked, getting along like family members who had never been separated. The title of "Deeper Than the Sea" is taken from a lyric in Teresa Teng's song "Premonition of Parting", which plays on a typhoon night as the background for the mother-son conversation. The mother tells her son about the foreboding of death and the distant return Remembrance expresses the insights that life has given. The mother confided to her son: "I am so old, but I have never loved someone more than the sea." This sentence sounds sad and lonely, but it is very realistic. Love in life will be washed away by time and repulsed by life, so will love disappear? In fact, love continues to maintain the emotions and relationships between people in the form of memory. In the film, Xiangzi met a new boyfriend for life. When he mentioned his ex-husband's many works, she pretended to be calm and very nervous to ask him what he thought of the novel; Xiangzi took her son to meet many. , asked for child support, and chose the location at the second-hand book market they often went to, and instructed his son to search for a lot of books; Shu Xilin complained about her husband and told her son that she had discarded all her husband's belongings, and when he said goodbye to his son, he didn't She brought the shirt that her husband wore during his lifetime and put it on his son. Through these behaviors, we feel the attachment and bond between people, and it is this bond that makes them still have an emotional thread even when they live everywhere. The saddest part of the film is this scene. Many took their sons to the slide in the park where they played games when they were young, and later Hiroko followed. On the night of the typhoon and rain, in such a narrow space, they re-entered each other. The father brought the habit of buying lottery tickets to his son, who saw winning the lottery as a hope to reunite his family. The son found that the lottery ticket was lost, and the family searched for the lottery ticket in the rainstorm, full of rare laughter, and the lost life could only be reset by a small probability. Their joy and encouragement made people feel warm and sad. It feels warm and sad. The light beam from the flashlight illuminated the darkness in front of him. Just like the gestures, gestures and smiles of the characters in the film, there is a light of goodwill in life. These moments of light can warm people's hearts, but they don't really change lives, which are closer to the truth of life. Of course, "Deeper Than the Sea" does not stop at the category of "healing system". For many such characters, Hirokazu Koreeda designed such a scene. After finding their father's inkstone, many people wanted to honor their father with a stick of incense out of gratitude or remorse, but they were hindered by the residue when placing the incense stick. So he carefully picked out the incense residue from the ashes. This scene is taken from the real experience of Hirokazu Kore-eda. He said, "It's like taking bones out of ashes, thinking that my father will be satisfied with his life?" Pick up your own life. A good movie allows us to see ourselves when we watch it. It was Hirokazu Kore-eda who described many ordinary people in life with "dreams far higher than hard work" by creating such a character. It's Hirokazu-eda The brilliant thing is that he never judges the characters in his films, but looks at them with a sidelines and kindness, and leads the audience to look at themselves through their eyes. With the connection and growth of the details of the film, the film develops such a scene. On the night of the typhoon, a temporary reconciliation was reached between the families. The next morning, many took the inkstone to the pawnshop. The boss took out the first editions of many award-winning novels and told many that his father had been very proud to show off to his neighbors how good his son was. Many were surprised that his father would have his own novel. Many signed for the shop owner's wife. At this time, he was grinding the stove used by his father and wearing the shirt his father wore, and he became like his father when he released Buddha. Finally, many reached an emotional and memory reconciliation with their father. The scene is ironic at the same time, and a lot becomes the look of the father he hates. The scene ultimately strengthens the tone of the film, healing and full of life tingling. It was Hirokazu Koreeda who took the complexities of life quietly and lightly. Looking back is Hirokazu-eda's family dramas, from "Walking On", "Miracle", "Like Father Like Son", "Diary by the Sea", until this "Deeper than the Sea", the families in his films often show cracks or The major change is that what Hirokazu-eda has been doing is repairing or rebuilding family ethical relationships in broken families, and creating a world of kindness and new coexistence of relatives. Look at "Deeper Than the Sea" again. A typhoon has become an opportunity for mutual understanding. In life, there is no need to force, I hope to recognize each other; It's a real philosophical realm.
