"August Nomad Poems" is a work by Wind Man empathizing with the tragedy of the Hiroshima atomic bomb. He only sympathizes with the Japanese people, but avoids talking about Japan's ravages of other countries
. The atomic bomb blast is a scar that hurts Wind Man from time to time. The film almost gave up Wind Man-style labels such as strong light and dark contrast and unexpected editing
. The whole film is warm and smooth, full of happiness in the gloom, and technical assistance is also perfect, showing the self-sufficient world of Wind Man in his later years
. At the end of the film, the grandmother walked alone in the torrential rain. The umbrella was blown over and turned into a blossoming flower. A lively nursery rhyme sounded in the slow motion with a long meaning
.

As a Chinese, you can see mixed flavors. Regarding this war, even if both sides hold an anti-war attitude, their positions are different, and their feelings are completely different. While emphasizing that they are victims, the Japanese did not reflect on why the disaster caused it. They only saw resentment against the United States and conveyed their apology through the guilt of the American character. There was a sense of national beautification of "I have let go". . Even if he is a master, Kurosawa's vision is limited here. Since murderers don't hold grudges, it's absurd that everyone should forget about it. With the passage of time, those children are now middle-aged, and it is not difficult to understand why Japan is so attached to the United States today, and even regards it as its own protection ally, and constantly whitewashes this war of aggression.
