Amazing Japanese ghost stories have a long history Mizoguchi completed a magical narrative in a single shot, breaking the spatial boundaries between reality and psychology A one-shot panorama movement Long-shot charm Dramatic single-scene settings explain the results, shake the camera away, poetic mood, scene narration, deep into the courtyard space, temptation under the dance of the long shot, and the ghost of the former king singing, the male protagonist is like a dream that can't be woken up, the montage in the long shot is from the mandarin ducks The bath shakes to two people playing by the lake. The time and space transition in the long shot The male protagonist often falls in the ghost time and space. He is like weightless in the desire. The two prostitutes betrayed themselves, the male lead was entangled by ghosts, possessed by a guilt spell, and the music became weird after being reminded by a Taoist priest. He escaped from the space and was captured with nothing to go home. Sleep well, light candles, sew clothes, and light from outside the house slowly enters the room. One shot shows the psychological shot of going to the wife's grave at the end of the day and inserting a re-selection back to the past. The last scene is a blend of true and false. As time progresses, the wife slowly returns to her husband (surreal) The sacrifice of women in exchange for the growth of men

    Mizoguchi has been praised by Bazin and others for his excellent use of long shots. As one of his masterpieces, in many applications in the film, the long-range shots highlight the connection between the characters and the environment, conveying an emotional experience that is higher than that of an individual. It expresses the self-sacrifice of two male characters in power and color and the forbearance and perseverance of women in tragic encounters, both of which have unique personal aesthetics and are full of strong Japanese charm.
