"Black Rain": The chill of a ruthless fall

It's the first time for me to watch a serious movie with the horror of watching a horror movie.
It is "Black Rain" by Shohei Imamura.
In "One One", Yang Yang said, in the future I will tell people things they don't know. Today, movies are such a presence in my life. Those things that are not known are the actions of the most familiar and most unfamiliar people. It was only because of the movie that I knew that, like the tragedy on earth after the nuclear explosion I saw in this movie, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was purgatory on earth at that time.
Many years ago, you must have seen the famous prophecy about Nostradamus, and you must remember the "great king of terror".
I recently watched two movies about the Hiroshima nuclear explosion and saw that huge mushroom cloud twice. Black, astonishingly inflated, as if to devour everything, rushing towards you. I often have a dream that I am at a loss among the huge clouds like "Nine Colored Deer", and I can't find the direction. You know how terrible it is, and there is no decline. Today's cloud is just as hideous. Thinking that it will drown the world, it came from the sky, it was the Terror King who descended from the sky, and after it came, the world was a waste.
So I am afraid. What a scene in the movie. The various poses, the mummy-like corpses were kept in the image of the moment they were alive. But I'm sorry, that's not the people in the beautiful castle who are enchanted and waiting for the prince to kiss the princess and wake up the princess. People who freeze at that moment will wake up together. It's not like that. Who and who is the dearest loved one, they walked stiffly into another world together, and haven't had time to think, so I hope they won't be a ghost, and the soaring grievances won't remain.
Ye Zi was on a boat outside the island, and the mushroom cloud was rising in the distance. At this moment, black rain started to fall in the sky. On the face, on the hands, it can't be washed off.
Watching the black rain fall down a little bit, how lonely it is to splash ink. This is Karen Mok's song, also called "Black Rain". This song is about feelings, but how can you compare the love and hurt between feelings with this, this is the most terrifying splash of ink, but really, it is a ruthless fall, ruthless. The song sings: The sky is covered with black rain, and we can't escape. At that time, Ye Zi couldn't escape.
Later, she could not marry. Because of being a victim of that disaster, there will be sequelae. So Ye Zi's uncle asked the doctor to issue a health certificate again and again. But one day, my aunt, who was also the victim of the nuclear bombing and who was gradually weakened, looked for Ye Zi. Through the crack of the door, she saw Ye Zi sitting in the bathtub, scratching her hair from the top of her head in a dazed way. Her hair fell, and when she pulled it again, a piece of scalp was exposed... The girl's expression turned stupid, she didn't cry or make trouble, but she was so stupid, no one could stand it - a beautiful and demure person Woman, is saying goodbye to her beautiful black hair, how can you bear it? And she doesn't have that beautiful black hair anymore, why don't you feel sad? The panic under this distressed guilt was originally the most frightening. The calmer the camera is, the more shuddering you are. Aunt couldn't take it anymore, staggered to one side, fell down, and went.
It is said that tragedy is to tear up the beautiful to show you. So what is the dark coldness that comes out from the depths of your heart? Is it a tragedy? no problem. But it's not just tragedy. It is the destruction of human beings by war, the crimes committed by human beings against human beings, and it is what you can imagine and what you can’t imagine and what people actually do—in fact, it is the most terrifying thing for human beings. Tragedy can immerse you, and this one only disgusts you, and you even hate your own species.
Ye Zi said that it was a hot summer, but when it started to rain, I felt very cold.
I know how you feel, how you spent that time. Many women who are as young and as flowery as you are frozen in that scorching scene, and you have left a memory about the chill.
Today, I can actually feel the bone-chilling chill you once had. It comes from the heart, and the heart is chilled, so the hot summer is also the cold winter.
