There are thousands of miles between good and great

After watching this film, I realized that there is an unattainable distance between an excellent movie and a great movie. No wonder Woody Allen would say, "As long as you make a great movie like Rashomon, you will have no regrets in this life!"
Simple stories, simple characters, and simple scenes are in the hands of masters. Become an exciting and immortal work. To this day, there are countless latecomers who are imitating and borrowing from the master's narrative techniques and the use of lens and sound effects.
If you haven't watched this movie, it's hard to tell what kind of movie you know is a great movie!

    If you see it early, you will understand something, but some mistakes still need to be inevitably made. So don't bother to think about the things that you haven't seen with your own eyes. You may not reach a consensus with the other party if you see it, let alone hear that it is just a fantasy.

    A fable, a play. ❶Although the three of them are competing to confess their guilt and seem to have a good attitude, they do not forget to maintain their image - robbers: conquer women and duel to defeat men. Women: Forced by a man's gaze to kill him unconsciously. Man: After pardoning the robber's sins, commit suicide and retain the remaining honor. There are different opinions, and there is no way to verify the truth. ❷ Revealing the old-fashioned truth through clear lines, lacking shocking and deafening strength; ❸ Beggars, woodcutters, and monks are like double/reincarnations of robbers, women, and men.

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.
