The film "Desire to Live" raises several questions that have been debated in philosophy: why do people live? What is the meaning of living? If you only had the second half of your life, what would you do? This film is like a blow to the people who have been mediocre or even inactive in government...

"Please go to Civil Engineering"

With a sad expression and a hoarse voice, the hero Watanabe's only sustenance after learning that he has cancer, and the only person he can talk about, is his son. After recalling that after the death of his wife, almost everything he did was for his son, but in the...

Why do people live? What is the meaning of living? In life, many people are alive, but they are already dead. This is just like the 30-year life of the protagonist Watanabe in the film "The Desire of Life". The whole film draws on Watanabe's experience and behavior when he is about to die from...

The protagonist ordered a song "ゴンドラの賢" that everyone thought was a love song, but he sang the desolate taste of the short life. When the music played, we were like the people in the picture, looking for the sound and looking at Watanabe. The people in the picture stopped and listened, but outside...

There is no doubt that Kurosawa is a master of mise-en-scene. The film uses scene art to metaphorize the serious ills of the bureaucracy and the loss and emptiness of people in the rapid modernization process of Japan. These designs can be seen everywhere in the film. Secondly, in the common...

Written in the front: This note talks about my own observations and feelings from both narrative and film language. Corrections and communication are welcome. If you think there are still merits, you can also take a look at my 2019 weekly book video report. It's Weekly #1 | Spring Dream , I will...

Probably a good movie is when the whole situation is dark and silent, and you want to stay in that situation for a while because there are so many emotions and thoughts to sort out.

I feel sympathy for the protagonist, the citizen section chief, who sees him being bored and busy for...

Azer is old, this time is really old. Compared to the self-righteous old age of 24, 60-year-old is always the evidence. Time is a blunt knife. It took so many years to draw down along the existing body lines of the human body, like a frog boiled in warm water, pulling people from life to death....

The film is divided into two parts. The first half is the old man's self-examination before his death. He feels that his life is wasted. In the second half of the story, I use the eyes of others to tell the story of what the old man finally accomplished. The characters of various colors appear one...

It's too classic, too classic. Sixty years later, China is still like this. This film has a third-person narrative, telling stories through memory, and jumping and cutting at the same camera, which are all formal innovations. From the comical shirking of blame at the beginning, to the final...
