In the summer of 1988, Takuro Yamashita, an ordinary employee, received an anonymous letter exposing his wife's affair. After witnessing the cheating scene, he stabbed his wife to death in anger and went to jail. Eight years later, Takuro was released on parole and opened a small barber shop by the Tone River in Chiba Prefecture. The experience of the year made Yamashita no longer trust others, and deliberately avoided communication with others. The うなぎ he raised was his only conversation partner. One day, when he went to the river to find bait, he rescued a female Hattori Guizi who had taken an overdose of sleeping pills. Guizi stayed in the store to work in return for Yamashita. Guizi with a bright personality made the business more and more prosperous, and Yamashita gradually became more cheerful. Gao Qi, whom I met in prison before, came here to work in garbage collection after he was released from prison. His constant exposure to the ugliness of the mountain made him embarrassed and disrupted his otherwise peaceful life. And Katsura's former lover, Dojima, also found this place and wanted to take her and her money away. Although Yamashita had to return to prison to continue serving his sentence in the event of a conflict with others, he took courageous actions to protect Guizi

The last time I watched it was four years ago. It seems to have watched it three times. This time I want to score five stars. Although I think the ending can be better (not referring to the boat on the river), there is no doubt that "Eel" is already a perfect movie. Shohei Imamura’s precise characterization and control of the characters on the axis of film history at any moment are first-class
