stare into the eyes of god

The company's punch-in reminder sound uses the back sound of "Kiujiro's Summer".
Every time I heard it, Kitano Takeshi's eyes would always appear, staring straight at the camera. Through the scene, through the story, it seems unintentional but powerful, directly touching the heart. There is a feeling of condensing time and mind resting.
If every movie can be understood as a story or the setting of destiny, then this kind of eyes is looking through time and space, looking directly at fate, and looking directly at the eyes of God above the story.

As a viewer, watching the whole story from behind the screen, holding on to a kind of superiority that God is with me. Under this look, he was completely slaughtered. On the contrary, this look vaguely reflects the shadow of God.
Sometimes I always wonder if Kitano Takeshi is joking: You are stupid, you are reading the story, but you are also in the story; pretending to hold the eyes of God, but being scrutinized by the eyes of God. ——"Standing on the bridge and watching the scenery, the person watching the scenery is looking at you upstairs"
We bystanders clearly looked at the back of other people's heads, but couldn't see our own. And God is standing behind all the heads.

Perhaps, at some point, we should also turn our heads and raise our eyes to see if we can stare into fate, into the eyes of God?

    I almost cried when the music started. For the 20 years of prostitution Kitano Takeshi, the copyright fees owed to Hisaishi for video programs by various radio stations and television stations must be one billion billion. Take Zheng Nan's drawing diary as a frame clue and capture everything from the child's point of view. The eight paragraphs are rhythmic and rhythmic, and the four dreams have a surreal meaning, indicating that Zhengnan accepts the fact that good and evil coexist in the world, while growing up through constant gains and losses; the angel's third point of view, the unique vision of wheels, dragonflies, etc., violates habits, strangeness and alienation The logical intervention method of the plot makes this seemingly small and fresh work worthy of aftertaste. //2020 movie theater review, the cold humor of jumping and cutting, laughing, crying and healing. "What's your name, uncle?" "My name is Kijiro, damn it. Go away~"

    The loving Kitano Takeshi is a bit dull, the little boy who always bows his head, Masao, the details are always moving and smiling. In the beautiful soundtrack of Hisaishi, he finally realizes that he is Kikujiro.
