    At first glance (and with some acquired taste), Ozu's influences writ large in the picture, from inanimate pillow...

    The picture is so beautiful

    The picture is really beautiful, the colors, shading, and lens settings are beautiful and symbolic.

    There are many scenes that left me with a deep image. Among them, the changes in the environment in two scenes just caught the mood of the characters, making people unable to help but sigh: 1. Yumiko...

    slim happiness

    Aside from the pomp and hypocrisy that Japanese people like to add to the movie, it is completely a picture of people's livelihood. The emotions of the characters are always light, with no obvious ups and downs. There is an undercurrent of sadness throughout the film. The woman was wearing black...

    Tone and knot

    The lively and clingy wife, the child who saw the world for the first time, glowed brightly at the end of the tunnel of Yufu's life, but in this tunnel were the constant-frequency monotonous heartbeats of trains, radios, printing presses, sewing machines, bells, and so on. When the bell was...

    Sometimes I just see the light

    The seventeenth film began to trace back to Hirokazu Kore-eda's film. After watching "From Here Again", I decided to watch his work from the beginning again in a very tight time, because I said that I like documentaries but There was no way to develop it, so I saw the director's documentary...

    Everyone has their own weights and measures

    Existence, if you are used to measuring others with your own value orientation, even if you are well-intentioned, you may not get good results. Between life and death, there are many things that we cannot understand by ourselves. Many times, all we need is to let go. Even if there are some...
