"Cut the Belly" Kobayashi Masaki hasn't written a film review for a long time in 1962, and I was a little lazy to write it, but this film made me so excited that I wanted to say a few words, it was so shocking, I never dreamed that a Japanese would criticize Bushido Spirit, criticize the criticism in the spirit of his own family, he made me see the shadow of Lu Xun. The film tells the story of the Tokugawa shogunate era (my country's Ming Dynasty), when Japan implemented a centralized system, which weakened the rights of many princes, so a large number of samurai class people became unemployed and became samurai. At this time, a contradiction was formed. On the one hand, there was the spirit of the warrior. No part-time work or farming was allowed, and he could only serve the princes. On the one hand, there is a living in reality, unable to find a job, poor, and unable to afford food. So the cruel reality caused many idle ronin to go to the prince's house to rob and rob them. They said that they would either give money or commit suicide by cutting their belly at his home (many people also went to China to rob their homes, and the Japanese pirates were also formed because of this), and this method became A popular method of extortion at the time. At this time, a ronin named "Begging Girl" came to a prince's house and asked to have his belly cut. Unexpectedly, the prince's retainer decided to take the plan and let him really cut his belly. And he was so poor that he even sold his sword, (the samurai sword is the soul of a samurai) and they insulted him and told him to cut his abdomen with a bamboo sword. A few months later, a ronin named "Jinyun Banshiro" also came to the feudal lord's house and asked to have his belly cut. What purpose did he come with? No matter the spiritual core, the plot structure, the photography, and the acting skills of the actors, this movie is perfect and impeccable. It is decided to be a lost jewel-level movie, and it will be properly included in the Top 250. One side is the ideal, the other side is the reality, revealing the brainwashing of the lower class by the upper class in Japan, as well as the hypocritical hearts of some fake samurai. I suddenly thought about the martial arts films we made in China. Heroes are not short of money, and they are fifty taels out of their pockets. Those who act as chivalrous and righteous people suddenly want to laugh. Do you know how much fifty taels are? I have seen "A Dream of Red Mansions", and 10 taels of silver is enough for a normal family life for one year, that is to say, as soon as he makes a move, he pays five years' salary.
