"Okuribito" is a traditional family feature film produced by Shochiku, which exudes a cordial and human touch. The film focuses on showing affection in different family relationships, which can gain the favor of middle-aged and elderly viewers in Japan. But "Okuribito" also has novel elements, that is, Japan's unique cultural aesthetics, such as the process of being enshrined. In addition, the story is easy to understand, there are jokes and sentimental, and content such as cello will not create barriers.

The emotional entry point is very well done, and there are too many people to thank. The mood at this moment corresponds to such a movie crying countless times in the cinema. Thank him for having such a good wife and thank him for his ability to look directly at life and death and his persistence in the world. Witnessed the crying farewell of the storm, and there was also a happy farewell, the yellow scarf was tied, and the stone in his hand was clenched. All the feelings converge in the farewell. We all know that to live is to die. The charm of the day shadow is to magnify the confession and self-reconciliation.
