so what to desire

Tetsuya Nakajima's film style is unique, but "Desire" is a bit out of the ordinary, far less shocking than "Confession". "Desire" hopes to tell a brutal, magical story, but the excess of violence makes the film a venting, messy patchwork. At the beginning of the story, the jumping shots and the staggered time feel good, but when the tension of the story becomes stronger and stronger later, the line drops. The scene where Kanako kisses the boy who was raped (forgot his name) was going to be like Shuya Watanabe in "Confession" (I still remember his name, it means that the protagonist of "Confession" is much stronger than that of "Desire" A lot) was shocked like a nosebleed, and was disappointed, leaving only a false clue of a skateboard shoe abruptly softened the climax of the movie. At the end, I thought it would extend the imagination of the film with the sudden change of Matsuko's expression in "Confession", but the result was not satisfactory. After reading it, I can't help but ask, what do I want, and I don't think the answer is satisfactory. Just as a superb horror film is psychologically terrifying, this type of film can be said to be a failure if it doesn't give people the long-term thinking of the soul.

    The next wife, pine nuts, confession, desire. Whether innocent, obsessed, crazy, or mysterious, Tetsu Nakajima is also using his unique method to build monuments and biographies for all kinds of women. It seems that Duke Cao wrote the Red House in order to make "the boudoir pavilion clear", so that everyone in the world knows that there are people in the boudoir, whose behavior and knowledge are all above mine. Although its shape is different, its quality is the same.
