I finally took the time to watch this movie, and I can't say how it feels...
The film begins to narrate Matsuko's life in the form of a large number of flashbacks: Matsuko lived a colorful life when she was a child, but her father always favored her sickly and frail younger sister Kumi. To win a smile from her cold father, Matsuko learned to make faces. And this was also recorded by his father with a camera and obtained by A Sheng. When Matsuko grew up, he became a music teacher according to his father's wishes. Life was good, but a small incident changed Matsuko's fate: student Aaron stole money from the hotel and was ordered by the school to investigate Matsuko. The kind-hearted Matsuko wanted to help Aaron took other people's money, and was framed by Aaron, and the school expelled Matsuko. Depressed, Matsuko went home and set her fire on her sister, who was doted on by her father and was deeply jealous of her, and then turned around and ran away from home. Matsuko falls in love with a poor and down-to-earth writer with a rambunctious temperament, but the writer commits suicide due to world-weariness. In turn, Matsuko becomes the mistress of a friend who is jealous of her boyfriend. She thought she could get true love but was ruthlessly abandoned. With no hope in life, she began to become a bath girl, and was deceived by a playboy boyfriend. Matsuko killed him in a fit of anger. She wanted to commit suicide and met an honest hairdresser. Caught and spent eight years in prison. In prison, Matsuko learns hairdressing for the hope that has just ignited. After being released from prison, she finds that the barber already has a wife and daughter, and Matsuko leaves with a faint blessing. Matsuko, who is back to work, happens to meet a fellow inmate who has a purpose in life, but also meets Aaron, a grown-up who has a crush on her and brings her grief. Songzi, who is eager for a new relationship, fell in love with Aaron wholeheartedly, but Aaron fell deeper and deeper into the underworld. In the end, he was chased and disfigured, and Songzi suffered a broken leg, and Aaron also went to prison. After Aaron was released from prison, he didn't want to hurt Matsuko any more and left resolutely. Matsuko, who couldn't figure it out, locked himself in a hut, overeating, and lost the purpose of life. kill. The tragic experience of Songzi deeply touched the young A Sheng, and when Songzi encountered difficulties, he was not blindly depressed, but moved him with the spirit of optimism, perseverance, kindness, and unconditional love for his beloved. Think pine nuts are gods and give people the same love as gods. Therefore, the title of this film is "The Life of the Hated Matsuko". In fact, it is not Matsuko who is hated, but the ugly people who are unfair to Matsuko, or the abstracted reality of life. Matsuko certainly has her human weakness, but the social reality makes her suffer and suffer, which is dehumanizing. Dreams are free, but very few people realize their dreams and live a happy life. So... the vast majority of people who are not so lucky either sigh sadly or indulge in sadness... or end their life hastily... or laugh and prevaricate, and be wrong...
