While watching, I was amazed at the wonderful composition of the picture, thinking that it must be at least the best photography. The narrated female voice with vicissitudes of life, the dark tone of cold and forbearance, in the background of that era, the shackles of inescapable fate wrapped around the little girls from beginning to end, I thought the movie was going to explore the helpless fatalism, but I didn't expect it to be the crowd Find her thousands of touching fairy tales. The picture is really beautiful, the actors are all amazing, and they show the charm of women in all directions from immature to mature, but what is implied is the irresistible patriarchal supremacy. Although the men are bystanders, they all smile with a smile. The geisha who can control the fate of thousands of women, "not mistresses, not prostitutes", stick to their self-respecting talents and kimonos, in order to convince people to believe that they are different from the former, but only they themselves know, apart from these remaining The next one is nothing, "no choice and no secrets".
The story of the little Chiyo period is really like Chihiro's trip to the soup house. I thought that the girl who made a wish in front of the Buddhist temple would never be able to make an appointment with that person in this life. Compared with the cruel life before, the ending is beautiful. Makes people uncomfortable. Originally, there are many things I want to say, the bitter complaint or reconciliation of fate, the pursuit of life goals, the yearning for repressed rebellion and freedom, excellent works can always arouse countless resonances and different interpretations, but this fairy tale ending makes me Tears flowed down his face, but he fell into deep doubt. The plot seems to be broken. Hatsuma, Little Pumpkin, Mr. Shenqiu and the chairman, these super malleable characters, without exception, feel like they are being cut off at the moment when they are ready to go. But it's really too good to cry——"The person I love also loves me", I will run towards you forever and ever.
