Moving

I don't know what degree to call it a god, I don't know if Erlang is really the first person in sushi, I don't even know if Erlang's sushi tastes like the sushi made by other people No, after watching this film, I was just moved and shocked by this thin old man who looked like my grandfather.
The five characteristics of a good chef are mentioned in the film, and the deepest impression on me is the love of cleanliness, love and efforts to improve their skills. What Erlang wears most in the film is his overalls, white shirt, and metal glasses without borders. Seeing him, I just feel refreshed. I don't believe this is an 80-year-old old man. After all, under normal circumstances, many old people can't take care of their own hygiene at this stage. other people's eyes. After watching the video, I was thinking, where is Erlang's god? Erlang said a word, he said that in his dreams he would make sushi, and he said that many ideas emerged one after another in his dreams. It is impossible to pretend to love this emotion. Otherwise, why do they have to supervise the apprentices to massage the octopus every day when they are already so famous all over the world. I haven't been successful, I haven't got a job yet, and I don't know if I'll love my future job so much, but I'm sure I'm longing for Erlang's purity, for his fiery and lasting love for his work. He has heard the title of "the first person in sushi" so many times, has been praised countless times in person, and seen countless satisfied smiles from customers, but he still regrets his sense of smell, and is still constantly trying to improve himself. Perfect technology. Such people are deaf in their ears and blind in their eyes. They will not hear and turn a blind eye to many things. Such people will feel as if there is a blue sea and blue sky or a golden wheat field there.
The climax of the film can be said to be a complete presentation of Erlang's "Sushi Symphony". Classics first, improvisations second, and return to tradition at last. The most touching thing is Erlang's meticulous observation of customers. The film also includes close-ups of Erlang observing customers. I don't know how to describe it, but watching the whole process will make my eyes watery. He is a professional, and has achieved the ultimate professional.
In fact, what impresses me more is the portrayal of apprenticeship life. Zhenyi said that there was an apprentice who did not persevere for a day, which shows that perseverance is not easy. Ten years after ten years, day after day, I don't know how many people can persevere, but I am sure that if it is just to gain a false name or to make money, I am afraid that there is no way to persevere. I can't imagine the mood of the apprentice at the moment when I have been bad at frying eggs and finally got the approval of Erlang. I just thought, if it were me, I must have given up 100 times 1000 times.
I like the last shot of the film, the kind old man, on the train that he takes every day, smiles cutely or shyly.

    This is the real god

Jiro Dreams of Sushi quotes

  • Yoshikazu Ono: [on one of his fish vendors] His grandfather was known as "the god of sea eel." He was a legend. I've never met him in person, but that's what I've heard.

  • Jiro Ono: When I was in first grade, I was told "You have no home to go back to. That's why you have to work hard." I knew that I was on my own. And I didn't want to have to sleep at the temple or under a bridge so I had to work just to survive. That has never left me. I worked even if the boss kicked or slapped me. Nowadays, parents tell their children, "You can return if it doesn't work out." When parents say stupid things like that, the kids turn out to be failures.
