If you want to write something about Hirokazu-eda's movie, it is most appropriate to write it when you just finished watching it, otherwise, after a while, you may forget what he said. It's not that the movie is bad, but you will feel that what he presents is our daily life, as if it is no different from what happens around us.

But even if you want to write something right away, you find that you still have no way to start. What to write? Love and hate? But aren't they all plain as water? I seem to prefer to sit quietly for a while after reading it, and let my thoughts drift and return to silence.

Life experiences are different, and everyone can always feel what they want when they watch a movie. This movie is called Haijie Diary, the so-called Haijie, a small town by the sea, Kamakura, quiet and peaceful, suitable for the quiet time of the years, for me who likes quiet, such a city has already immersed me in it . I feel that I can record every moment of my life here day after day, year after year, like a director, and then write down the daily laughter and scolding on the memo, and finally bury it in the ground.

So I think it is Hirokazu Koreeda, who never expects a wonderful plot, this is not his mission. Just like this movie, although it tells about the conflicts behind the four sisters' acquaintance, acquaintance, and getting along, those are very ordinary scenes, just like our life, there will be things that make you happy, painful, and confused, but after everything , after all, it is just a seasoning of the day. The hut left by my grandmother is still there, and the plum tree in the dean is still there. Every year, plums are still picked to make wine, and some of the extra is still distributed to the neighbors.

The days are still dull, and so are my words and this film.

    In front of the Kamakura old house, the seasons change, and the fallen leaves are lush, golden and snow. Although it was silent, it contained all the thoughts and emotions of the girls. The shame of falling in love and the regret of giving up and wailing have melted into the dependence between sisters. A cherry blossom petal in the hair, a rain under the eaves, and a mark on the door frame, all become alive with light and shadow. The presumptuousness on the beach, the tenderness in the courtyard, the relaxation in the room, finally understand that company is the most beautiful poem.

    #BIFF# is Hirokazu-eda getting closer and closer to the master. There is a harmony between pastel tones, diary and even translucent English subtitles. Use a lot of details (such as food) to express the moving beauty of daily life (in the family), without procrastination. It is very concise and powerful. The English title tells the protagonist of the whole film: the half-sister, so the coexistence of the four has become a way of understanding the previous generation. The flow of seasons (the fireworks show and the cherry blossom show are so beautiful) is also very vicissitudes!
