Stray Dog

In the past, Cai Lan's column always mentioned the actor Toshiro Mifune. Today, I finally have the opportunity to see his famous work "Stry Dog". Although the film is a work from 1949, the film elements such as shooting skills, scene scheduling, work skills, etc. are not outdated at all. An ordinary "gun hunting" story can be filmed so intensely and so tortuously, director Kurosawa. Ming really contributed. There are two scenes in the film that left a deep impression on me. The first scene is the detective Murakami pretending to be down and out on the street to attract gun dealers. I vaguely remember that it should be the "Asakusa district" in Tokyo (there is a sign on it), Akira Kurosawa. Let the audience take the role of Murakami and watch the life of the Japanese post-war civilians. There is no dialogue in the whole process, but the atmosphere is very exciting, as if I feel like I am in Murakami in the street at that time, which opened my eyes. The second segment is the climax scene of chasing the gunman at the end of the film, especially the scene where the prisoner points the gun at Murakami, which is like a samurai film from a detective film, but the background soundtrack is the opposite. Is the sound of the piano a kind of irony? It feels really good to shoot.

One thought becomes a Buddha, another one becomes a demon, different people's different encounters in the chaos after the war. "Society is at fault, but blaming society is an even bigger fault."

#ArchivePhotos## Kurosawa Akira Retrospective# Going back to the source, all the so-called big names in film today are just standing on the shoulders of giants, oh no, most of them just live and dance in the shadow of giants. This 49-year-old classic has influenced many filmmakers. The combination of Mifune and Shimura Takashi complements each other, and the reflection on war is more touching with the appreciation of "Heaven and Hell" before and after. Crime is just a rabbit in the hands of an illusionist, the confusion of human nature. Anxiety is the real trick. classic work.
