The pinnacle of spirit!
Philip 2022-03-23 09:02:09
The desire to live! A masterpiece about life and human nature, in this film, Akira Kurosawa reached the peak of his spiritual world. The spiritual definition of life and death, the strong irony of the government, the in-depth analysis of human nature, and the thorough reflection on life are all so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Personally, I think this film has reached the peak of Akira Kurosawa's films. I am fortunate to see such a classic that shakes the soul. Shimura Joe's performance deserves to be evaluated as highly as Mifune. Cooperation, until the end of working together, the only film that did not participate. Even today, more than 50 years later, this film still shines with indelible light, always shining on the faces of you and my innermost heart.

It took the last 50 minutes to question, guess and miss the deceased. Akira Kurosawa is too confident. According to the normal routine, he may use double selling to win the sympathy and tears of the audience, but the director let Watanabe's story line in the middle. It stopped abruptly and was replaced by another group of people with similar identities to the dead protagonist, of course, the living people, and the theme also became deeper in the noise. The protagonist’s psychology has something in common with Wei Ming, who committed suicide by taking poison in "The New Woman".

Several students saw weeping. But I always feel that only those who grew up in East Asian culture really understand this kind of taste, why desires are buried, and why people who suffer always have to endure. Shimura Joe's eyes are a bit like my dad with tearful eyes.
