      "Our technology has far surpassed our humanity"

      There are so many good films that everyone has been raving about. Because I have seen POWDER, the ending is hitting the tearful eyes of this mushroom Ryo. I feel that there are not many comments, and it is a pity that it does not attract attention.
      To put it simply, this is not a sci-fi show, it mainly discusses human nature. Bizarre events such as albinism's superpower being struck by lightning are all appearances. We use a very unusual person as a model to remind us that everyone should...

      You summed it up very well, let me add a sentence.

      In the end, the four people just started to cry and then someone laughed again. First of all, the four people reflect the four kinds of people in real life.

      Sheriff is sensual, tolerant, and knows how to love, so laugh before crying.

      The police officer (fat man) is a stubborn person. Although he gave up hunting in the film, I personally think it is a portrayal of a defined life.

      Teacher (male), I was very sad at the end. What he pursues is high IQ and enthusiasm for the...

      "Quotes"

      "What did happen? Why won't you tell anyone?

      I let him see. I opened him up, and I let him see. He just couldn't see what he was doing, so I helped him."


      "I think you're starting to find out now that the misery... That you read about is real. The tragedy is, is real in all those stories. Did you think that it wasn't? I mean, my God, that deer hunt , you think that's the dark side of man? Killing for pleasure? I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, but you haven't begun to see...

      The plot is like "Miracle in the Green Mile". This is the real super body, powder explained where the soul goes-everywhere, the air around you, strangers, flowers and trees, there are people you are close to and unforgettable. The movie turns this super-powerful white-flowered man into a white-paper-like child, and it is too basic to watch a man take a shower. The run at the end came so thoroughly, a lonely sad boy. For a moment of disappearance, the crying of the people around, so happiness...

    Comprehend human nature

    What should I do if the hardships I have suffered in the past few years do not come to fruition? If you think like this often, you will often fall into an unnamed bad mood. Looking at this film, you can call it a science fiction film or an ethics film, but I only see people's hearts anyway. Powder, a person who is lonely for half his life, has a peerless and superb IQ, can see through the minds of people, can sense all things such as...

    Return to warmth

    For "Powder", I have a lot of thoughts in my heart, but I don't know how to write. This is a film with a strong critical character
    , taken in 1995. Before that, Hollywood movies experienced a movement back to tenderness. "Powder" uses a symbolism to tell people that the world does not allow the so-called pure existence at all. If you want to survive, then you have to be in harmony with the people around you, and there is no other way....

    Audience Comments

    A mother who was struck by lightning has died after giving birth to Powder, a baby with hairless albinism . Powder's father dismissed him as a freak. Powder was raised by his grandfather and grandmother in the basement of his home, and was accompanied by books every day until the two elders passed away one after another, and Powder became a helpless person. With the help of a sheriff and a female volunteer, Powder came to study at a...
