The style changes before and after, but not abruptly. The characters transition from moral dilemmas to legal dilemmas, and finally to social structural contradictions. It can be said that they have good intentions. It is pointed out that all dilemmas may be fundamentally because of capital and class differentiation. A bit...

The first half of "Heaven" and the second half of "Hell", the camera followed the process of solving the case, and made a nearly folklore-style depiction of post-war Japanese society. The framing and camera movements are calculated with unrivaled precision, and the romantic music of the club dance and capture scenes is impressive. Gonto, played by Mifune, is a self-made model of the bourgeoisie, while Yamazaki's poor are blindly jealous. In the socialist reasoning, Akira Kurosawa still infuses...

The English title "High and Low" is very appropriate. The whole film is like a big lift lens. The front, middle and back three paragraphs have their own distinct subjects in narrative and video, from the rich fighting for power to the various executives. From the middle of the job to the bottom of the lingering, from living space to behavior, the film's viewpoint goes from top to bottom, and outlines a clear line from "heaven" to "hell", and what Kurosawa did is not that kind of A camp-based,...

A masterpiece, good sentences make up good chapters. Genzheng Miaohong's black detective film, honestly reasoning and telling stories. The plot is in-depth step by step, and the rhythm is smooth and smooth without any delay. I didn't expect that Emperor Kurosawa would make genre films so easily, domineering and powerful. In the opening chapter, the textbook-like composition, position and group play scheduling of the indoor play also show the master's handwriting! There are a lot of discussions,...

The first half revolves around whether to pay the ransom, and all kinds of coincidences finally converge on one point: Can other people’s children be saved? The scenes are all concentrated in this small living room, a kind wife, a humble driver, and Quan Teng who is hovering on the edge of his personal moral bottom line... A picture is wrapped with many faces of their own pain. The second half describes the complete process of recovering the ransom in detail. In the lengthy report, there is no...

The Ukiyo-e is sent to the detection of the case, and the perspective is extremely grand. In fact, this is a social realistic film. The scheduling in the first half of Mifune Toshiro's residence fully shows Kurosawa's superb narrative ability in a single scene. The characters move Starting from the drama, each composition is precise and full, the characters are in and out of the painting, and the group portraits in the depth of field have various levels of performance, and the...
