Life does not know where to come, what is the way back? A good movie has a thousand words, but I don't know where to start! Imamura Shohei's "Narayama Festival Kao" is undoubtedly worthy of this honor. In the movie, life and death are equally great, connecting the tenacious survival instinct of human beings in the living environment with all animals, which is pathetic and hard. The movie is like a book of scientific research on the old customs of ancient tribes. The calm and full of praise lens language brings together an old oriental old custom one by one. In the era of low productivity and harsh environment, the rules and regulations formulated by human beings for survival have nothing to do with ethics, etiquette and shame, and the light or darkness of human nature can be ignored, because survival is the first priority. In the scene where people in a village were buried alive in Yuwu’s house, the people in the camera could not see any emotions from the subjective camera. It was calm and silent, a single movement, soothing music, and the emotions of the audience could not be felt. Everything happened so logically. You are blameless and have nowhere to vent! For most people, don't look down on those who are inferior to you because your life is rich, and don't live with admiration because your life is poor. Everyone is living tenaciously. When there is no food to eat, there is nothing to talk about etiquette, righteousness, integrity, and civilized development! Civilization is also formed first and foremost under the premise of survival. Just because your civilization is a little better than others, to claim to be superior to others and to be complacent, how ignorant and a frog in the well. As everyone knows, putting everything aside, the desire to survive is struggling, and the killing and calculation are all for one bite!
