    no reason no answer

    "Phantom Light" has no cause, no effect, no answer. When she was a child, she couldn't stop her grandmother from going out and regretted her life for the rest of her life. An inexplicable accident ruined her ordinary and happy life. Even though she was away from this sadness and started a new...

    Do we really need answers?

    "Phantom Light". It was Hirokazu-eda. 1995.      It is Hirokazu Koreeda who has been making documentaries all the time, and the debut of a feature film (what am I talking about, how many "first films" has Asano made?), it was a blockbuster.     Beautiful shot.     Masterful use of light and shadow....

    Feelings of watching Japanese film work <Phantom Light>

    From the shooting scene, the cast to the photography, you can see at a glance that this is a small production. Usually a small production can reach a certain commercial distribution, which is often an acceptable trendy work, usually a work with a certain depth of thought. Generally, there is hardly...

    It was Hirokazu Kore-eda's first film

    Recently, I have been very obsessed with Hirokazu Koreeda.

    Turning out his first movie, in fact, he already has his own tune. It's just that the tone of this one is a little darker, after all, the heroine killed her husband at the beginning.

    The heroine is tall and has a good figure. Wearing...

    phantom light

    The people around you will suddenly disappear one day for absolutely no reason, no clue, no pain, no pain. In fact, as long as you don't think about it, it's not that serious. Live as quietly, meet other people, and go down together. Just suddenly heard the familiar sound of bells, heard someone...

    A delicate and intense life experience

    The author's narrative is obviously not as good as the later works. The film seems to be composed of many scattered fragments, and the rigid transition between fragments seems to be deliberate. More white space. The characters have very few lines, and most of the time they just watch the character...

    On Film Cultivation and Fixed Shots

    The movie is based on the novel "Phantom Light" by Teru Miyamoto. Miyamoto Teru's novel, in the seemingly peaceful new life on the surface, uses the heroine's inner monologue, constantly narrating the questioning about the suicide of the ex-husband, like the dark sea in the harsh winter, the waves...

    Maboroshi no hikari

    It is not a story-telling-oriented film. It mainly depicts the character’s state of mind facing the separation of life and death. It uses a lot of sounds and symbolic objects to link each paragraph. All the details are emotional stacks for the heroine. "Phantom Light" tells the story of Yumiko...

    Phantom Light

    When Yumiko was a child, her grandmother ran away from home. She didn't understand why her grandmother insisted on leaving. She chased after her but did not stop her. She just quietly watched her grandmother leave. Later, Yumiko got married and lived a poor life, but they still did. Very happy,...

    You need to spend your life on earth, but he is just a passerby

    There should be a reason for all departures, and all the lost hope to be retrieved, but the world is so complicated that it can never be fulfilled one by one. Do you already know why he left? You look back, your eyes focus on his back, he collided with the roaring train with his flesh, and...
