I lost a lot of tears throughout the whole film, especially when Songzi repeatedly scribbled on the wall before his death the phrase "I'm born as a human, I'm sorry". The director jumped out to ridicule himself while putting his goddess in a desperate situation, using too gorgeous color pictures and malicious imitation of countless bridges. Actually, I think the film is very masculine. This divine woman with a sensual body and a baby mind who would give everything for love is entirely a male imagination. Such a selfless and undefended woman who was only born for emotion was carried to the altar to satisfy the audience's empty emotions. Although Pine Nut suffered almost all the misfortunes in real life, it is still a myth rather than a real fable.
Matsuko really has a classical beauty, she belongs to the age of the gods. The director brought his goddess to a modern age full of fragments, trying to explain something by destroying a beauty. It doesn't work, it's totally two worlds.
