The teacher Uchida described by Akira Kurosawa is a joker, and what comes out of his mouth is not anecdotes or anecdotal nursery rhymes, but it is such a lovely old man that students have forgotten for decades If you don't give up, the so-called lifelong teacher. Uchida-sensei's philosophy of life - go with the flow, be innocent and frank, and not be dragged down by things outside your body. The most important point is that in getting along with the former students, I never let myself indulge in their support. You can drink and sing with the students, but you won't be coquettish with any of them, and there is a social balance between teachers and students, and between people, so everyone can interact peacefully in the seventeen years since retirement. In the film, Uchida's cat (Roya) goes missing, which is an interesting arrangement by the director. In fact, the film does not explain too much of Mr. Uchida's private life, children and relatives, etc. So Roja is Mr. Uchida's infatuation with the previous emotions after entering old age - it may be childhood to parents, teenagers to lovers, middle-aged time Uchida has always looked at the past with a simple concept of war, school and academia, and has always asked himself not to be squeamish or hypocritical, but the appearance of this cat made him suddenly realize how warm and cruel his emotional dependence is. fact. So after some searching and letting go, Mr. Uchida sang the children's song "God of Harvest" with infinite sadness at the banquet with the students, which is the essence of the film. I am the flawless and innocent white rabbit. After I came into this world, my tortured flesh was damaged and exposed to rotten flesh. The god of harvest taught me to wash the dirt with clean water and wrap the cattails. I did so and returned to my original state White Rabbit. The arrival and loss of Roja made Uchida-sensei re-examine his relationship with the world. The mental crackling has always been suppressed by self-deception. During this period of time when he was drifting away from the world that once hurt him deeply In fact, still can not let go. Roja is here to remind Mr. Uchida to truly face his inner feelings. If you are hurt, you will be hurt. The feelings of the students are like Shimizu. Although they cannot compare with family members and children, they are not sweet and mellow enough, and they cannot always be around, but Clear water is clear water. It can carry objects and feelings, but it cannot stop for you. After understanding this truth, Uchida-sensei finally let go. So after the seventy-seventh birthday party, Uchida-sensei returned to his childhood in a dream, left peacefully in the splendid sunset, and his life was fulfilled. I have been in control of the film since the banquet of Mr. Uchida's 60th birthday. Director Akira Kurosawa's sensational techniques have really become proficient in his old age. There is no emotional turbulence in the film, but people are always on fire. Tears. In addition, Akira Kurosawa's films should be watched at an interval between an early and a late period, which is more interesting. Art life, after all, must return to a childhood.
