The novel is beautiful, so let's adapt it like that

Adapted from Haruki Murakami's novel of the same name, "Norwegian Forest", directed by Chen Yingxiong, written by Haruki Murakami himself, starring Kenichi Matsuyama, Rinko Kikuchi and Kiko Mizuhara. It tells the love-hate entanglement between college student Watanabe, Naoko, Midoriko and others. The composition of the picture is beautiful, and the tone is well established. Those who haven't read the original book may have no clue, although I didn't understand the original book very well.

Everyone has their own forest, maybe we've never been there, but it's always there and always will be there. Those who are lost are lost, and those who meet will meet again. In addition to describing the impulse of primitive lust, there is also this passage in the original book that I particularly like: "Everyone has a forest of his own in his heart. Lost people are lost, and those who meet will meet again." The movie was indeed not shot. good.

    Maybe it will be better if the time is about 3 hours... Kenichi Matsuyama looks like

    "Norwegian Woods", which I watched in a very slow and very long time span many years ago. The whole story has been forgotten. The only thing I remember is the erotic descriptions, Naoko's soft shoulder line under the reflection of the moonlight, and the silver fluff on the skin. Carefully kissing Reiko's skin, which is no longer young, and tapping her tongue on the wrinkled area may have a memory error, but it was also the most beautiful part of the Norwegian forest at that time. But the movie, not at all

Norwegian Wood quotes

  • Storm Trooper: Mind if I give you a piece of advice?

    Toru Watanabe: Sure.

    Storm Trooper: Don't feel sorry for yourself. Only degenerates feel sorry for themselves.

  • Toru Watanabe: Nothing can heal the loss of a beloved. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness can heal that sorrow. All we can do is live through the sorrow and learn something from it. But whatever we learn will be of no help in facing the next sorrow that comes along.
