director and my country

First of all, the soundtrack inside is amazing! I like it very much, I can give five stars for the music in a single column~

Secondly, the director is simply amazing! Just like me~ How can I tell you, even when I read novels, I felt that Naoko was a lunatic, and it was especially annoying. In the movie, the role Naoko chose was unpleasant in the first place, and the acting was super unnatural. The director must have hated Naoko in the original book for casting and filming, so he worked so hard to blacken Naoko. . .

Also, the editing of the pictures in many places in the movie is super beautiful! For example, the first three good friends are together, such as snow, swimming pool, etc., etc., and so on. However, how did the sex with Naoko shoot so badly? . . pretty ugly. . .

Also, when I read the original book, I liked Midori very much. I remember that Midori gave Watanabe a handjob in the original book, but it was not filmed in the movie. At that time, I was very young, in my teens, and I didn't think it was pornographic. I think the green girl has a good character. Midori in the movie played very well, maybe because she has a certain advantage in appearance, but the performance is very natural and there is no exaggeration like the Naoko actor.

The dead are always seventeen.

This sentence affected me for quite a long time.

In fact, the film adapted from the novel will not be too wishful. Except for Naoko's actor who is a big failure, the rest of the film is not bad.

    In the distorted version of Twilight in Vietnam, homosexuals are forced to transform to insert the opposite sex. Director Chen's rhythm is not fast at first, and in addition to the casting, he prefers handsome men and women, which is too feminine and adds a bit of weirdness to the film. Fortunately, I do not eat Haruki Murakami.

    Years of dream finally disillusioned. Where is the green child who said, "The rain of the whole world falls on the lawns of the whole world." Some things, some people, and some words were only touched at the time. With the passage of time, you will never find a touch. Dismantling the original structure, the characters are reorganized and deformed unconsciously, the pattern, relationship and personality are all out of shape. Under the gorgeous coat, even the feeling of looking back on the past is gone.

Norwegian Wood quotes

  • Toru Watanabe: Nothing can heal the loss of a beloved. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness can heal that sorrow. All we can do is live through the sorrow and learn something from it. But whatever we learn will be of no help in facing the next sorrow that comes along.

  • Naoko: Please remember me forever. Please always remember that I existed and was here by your side. Will you promise?

    Toru Watanabe: I promise I'll always remember.
