The truth of life

Among the movies I have seen, "Rashomon" is undoubtedly a masterpiece. It reveals the truth of life, like a sharp blade across the skin, both painful and quick. The truth is that there are only facts in this world, not truth. The more narrators, the further away we are from reality. Everyone sees the world from their own point of view, abides by the rational person assumption in economics, and pursues the maximization of their own interests. Warriors, robbers, wives, and farmers are no better. Therefore, truth is ugly and truth is not important. When things happen, the key is how to face them, how to solve problems, and give tomorrow an answer and reason, rather than being entangled with the past. Walk into "Rashomon" and then walk out of "Rashomon", and you will become mature alone. This is the charm and value of artistic masterpieces.

    "The ghosts living in Rashomon escaped because they were afraid of human cruelty." The originator of this type of film, but relatively weaker than the original, there is no doubt that such a movie could be shot in the 1950s. The shock brought by this movie can be imagined. The naked lies, weakness, suspicion, and distrust in human nature, the film is a bright mirror, straight into the hearts of the people. ★★★☆

Rashomon quotes

  • Commoner: It sounded interesting, at least while I kept out of the rain. But if it's a sermon, I'd sooner listen to the rain.

  • Priest: A human life is truly as frail and fleeting as the morning dew.
