Maybe there is no other Japanese movie that can be produced in a completely free and unrestrained sense in accordance with one's own ideas like Kitano Takeshi 's movie. "Violent Cop" is its representative.
"Violent Cop" is the first film directed by Kitano Takeshi. In the film, Kitano Takeshi plays a villain who has always been rude. Kitano Takeshi had already played many "violent" roles long before he appeared in this film, so the film "Violent Cop" not only inherited Kitano Takeshi's performance in performance, but also opened a series of "violent" films after him. A head.
In fact, for Kitano Takeshi to make a movie as a director, it is not his long-saving wish, but a coincidence. In 1989, Japanese director Shinji Fukasaku was invited to shoot the movie "Violent Cop" written by Nozawa Takashi, and Kitano Takeshi was invited to play the lead role. Before the filming, Shinsaku Kinji invited Kitano Takeshi to participate in the preliminary discussion and preparation work, but Kitano Takeshi was unable to get away because of the electric schedule, and Shensaku Kinji resolutely quit. Without the director of the film, the producer had to consider shelving the shooting plan, but when he met Kitano Takeshi again, Kitano Takeshi accepted the director's errand half-jokingly. So "Violent Cop" became Kitano Takeshi's opening masterpiece.
Some people use "violent aesthetics" to summarize Kitano Takeshi's "Violent Cop" movie, but it is not always true. Watching his movies often makes people laugh and feel bitter. The violence of a man can't carry the feminine beauty of a woman, so when I see the sadness, I can't help but hide my face and cry.
