Fireworks

Life drives people to a desperate situation, a journey with no return. One small detail is very touching. Takeshi Kitano covered his wife with thick clothes at the hotel. His wife was lying on her side, with slow tears on the sides of her eyes, and the two were speechless. But touching. Finally, the wife who is running out of time gave her husband a sentence of "Thank you, thank you for everything", and the music rang, breaking the heart. Life is so difficult. Two gunshots ended everything and the pain.

Kitano takes the screenwriter, director, and starring role in the film. This is a wizard. The silent and speechless man with facial paralysis he plays, breaking through the shackles of the system and reaching the depths of morality, half as flowery and half as fire, beautiful and dazzling flowers and burning fire symbolize love and violence. Fragments are broken and repeated, but the core of the film is complete and impeccable. We always feel nothing for the suffering of others.

    The male pig's foot Kitano takes less than 20 lines, and the heroine has no lines. Hisaishi made the soundtrack, but there were several places where he deliberately used muting, and the effect was better. Kitano's gentleness and romance, and a little bit of his usual jokes. It's bloody, the girls are cautious. But the paintings inside are all pretty.
