Hayao Miyazaki, no matter what kind of story, his works can always give people a kind of magic that penetrates the soul. At the age of 72, his works never involve the real past, but "The Wind Rises" is called "The Wind Rises" by himself. Although the animation of "Mountain" is based on Japan's most sensitive World War II topic and fighter designer Jiro Horikoshi as the protagonist, it still tells a story as pure and dreamlike as a cloud. The movie "The Wind Rises" is not a movie prepared for children like "My Neighbor Totoro", but a movie based on Jiro Horikoshi to show Hayao Miyazaki's exploration of Japan's dream in the face of World War II. Personal experience is the main line, but the ideas are given by Hayao Miyazaki, because there is no real example of Jiro Horikoshi's "anti-war" in the existing materials. In Hayao Miyazaki's "The Wind Rises", Jiro Horikoshi is an aircraft designer who loves aircraft and pursues designing the most beautiful aircraft all his life. His dream has nothing to do with war, but because he is in a war-torn era, as an aircraft designer, he does not have many choices. Through the expression of Jiro Horikoshi's "dream", when he was young, he longed to fly, and he met the Italian aircraft designer Caboloni in his dream. After that, the encounters between Jiro Horikoshi and Caboloni in the dream ran through the entire movie. Discussing planes, Caboloni's helplessness about using planes for war, and the white plane designed by Jiro Horikoshi, which symbolizes peace and dreams, if the truth in the movie is Jiro Horikoshi's deity, then the one in the dream Jiro Horikoshi is Hayao Miyazaki himself. In this way, the film depicts a character who is eager to pursue his dreams but has no intention of war. Jiro Horikoshi in the movie is more like the combination of his real character and Hayao Miyazaki. A unique work that expresses the persistence of Jiro Horikoshi's dream and a purity that has nothing to do with war and beyond. As the title of the movie "The Wind Rises", "wind" has become the most important element throughout the whole movie. On the one hand, he becomes the carrier of Erlang's dream, and on the other hand, he becomes the fate of Erlang and the female main dish Hoiko's love in the movie. In the movie, it was "wind" that made Erlang and Nahoko meet on the train, and it was the wind that made the two know each other in the hotel. In the end, Nahoko's passing was also the wind. This work interprets the obsession with dreams in the war years. At the same time, it also shows a kind of gentle charm in Miyazaki's films. This charm is not the vulgarity of "no love is not a movie" in many movies, but the release of the dream of Jiro Horikoshi. There are war scenes in the movie. It is well known that Japan's defeat in World War II is a well-known ending. After the success of the Zero plane, "The Wind Rises" directly skipped the war and faced the last Horikoshi Jiro Yumeng also passed through countless planes designed by himself. The wreckage, walking out of the dark clouds, "The wind is blowing, we have to work hard to survive" This is the farewell of Nahoko passing away with the wind, and it also symbolizes the post-war Japan. Although it bears the bitter fruits of the war, it still works hard for the dream. Fight and live bravely. The reflection on the war in "The Wind Rises" is not a sermon, but a surreal criticism. On top of this, the pursuit of dreams, if you have a dream, you should live by the wind. This may be the last stay of Hayao Miyazaki. to us.
