About "I Want Vengeance"

I believe many people will be attracted by the name of this movie, I want revenge. To whom to take revenge and how to take revenge. But it may not be understood by the end. I checked the film reviews online, and it turned out that the film did not clarify the relationship between the protagonist's experience and his murder. But is it really so? If so, why did the protagonist kill the woman he loves the most and the child in his womb? In the end, why did the ashes stop in the air?
Who will the protagonist take revenge on? to his father and wife. And the way to get revenge is to kill unrelated people. The eyes of the people around you are emphasized many times in the film. The protagonist's mother who loves women the most has murdered, and their mother and daughter have been living in pain. It is for this reason that the protagonist kills them in order to prevent them from continuing to live in pain after he leaves. And his father and his wife who betrayed him continue to endure the talk and rejection of those around them because they have a son and husband of a serial killer. When his father visited him, he called him a coward, saying that he would only hurt unrelated people, and the protagonist was very angry after hearing this, but he didn't have a seizure, because he knew that he didn't hurt his father in order to make him suffer more.
But what causes the hero's mentality? Or the opinions and opinions of the people around you. His family was different since childhood, Catholics. His behavior can be said to be a kind of resistance. But is he really heinous? In the film, we can see that he also has love, for the woman he likes, for his mother. Including a scene, after he kills people, the camera directly turns to his mother who is far away from home.
So it's like the murderer in the Ten Commandments. The bear slaps the flies on the benefactor's head with a brick. We use violence to suppress violence.
But the saddest thing is the terrible social pressure, how terrible the strange eyes of the people around me are. When you think about watching the movie, if you can think of this, do you feel shivering in your heart? Maybe this can be called the last horror movie.

    Tonight I'm Ang Lee, I'm so fucking shocked, I filmed Li Beng LeBao so indifferently and steadfastly, I was completely absorbed in two and a half hours and came out and took a few deep breaths. The Japanese are too miserable, all kinds of authoritarians are pressed in their hearts, they neither dare to resist nor lie flat, so they can only let go. This level of oppression is really unbearable for human beings, and if there is no mutation, they are really strong. Terrible.

    Revisit! Imamura Shohei's pursuit of a documentary style at this time makes this film perfectly in line with the characteristics of the adaptation from the police case file. The time, place, and background are all explained in detail. Under the guidance of the documentary, the director still added a lot of cinematic language, and the male protagonist has no purpose. Killing people on the ground, killing as the purpose of existence is also in line with the creative purpose of Imamura's anthropological film, which contains reflections on the modernization of Japan, and unexpectedly appears a surreal mirror at the end
