It's about the identity intermodulation trick that Da Dao Wang's works like the most: Kimura Takuya is clearly the incarnation of Liang Chaowei (played by Zhou Muyun) in "2046", and the train bound for the future goes back hundreds of years ago. People are all blind warriors - remember the sunset warrior Liang Chaowei in "Evil in the East"?
Sunset Samurai has bad eyesight since he was young, and he will be blind when he is 30 years old. At the beginning of the story, he was just 30, and he could not see anything at night; Kimura's Shinzhicheng was injured at work and accidentally blinded. Both of them have wives. Coincidentally, both women have hurt their men one after another: the woman of the Sunset Warrior was taken by her good friend Huang Laoxie on their wedding night; Housekeeping sleeps with men. A samurai suddenly loses his sight. In fact, it is a very dangerous thing. In the darkness, the woman behind him becomes the only support. Sunset Samurai was not blind at that time, so he chose to leave, but Xinzhicheng found his wife "unfaithful" after losing his sight, and reluctantly drove his wife out of the house in a rage.
As the story continues, the sunset warrior's eyesight is getting worse and worse. He knows that he will soon see nothing, but because he misses his wife, he wants to go home to see his wife one last time before he loses sight; Colleagues knew the truth and decided to be ashamed of his wife. Wong Kar-wai once said in an interview that he did not know how to deal with happy endings at all, so the Sunset Warrior was forced to fight with horse thieves in a situation of one enemy and a hundred in order to earn money for the journey home. In the end, he lost his eyesight. It ended in a tragic death (Tiao Shizhong wanted to serve Ouyang Feng as a case study, Duke Yin). Xin Zhicheng fought for his life with all his heart, and finally beheaded the bad man, regained his dignity, and ended up with his wife in harmony.
The regret of the sunset warrior was finally filled by Kimura Takuya written by Zhou Muyun. Every time Yoji Yamada handles the ending, he is concise and sincere, moving but not conventional. Wong Kar-wai should be relieved, right?
