In my eyes, good movies can be divided into two types, one is a good movie, and the other is a movie that can replace literary works. In Asian movies, there are two directors who give people a strong sense of literature, one is Yang Dechang, and the other is Hirokazu-eda.
In the past two years, the quality of Japanese films has recovered in an all-round way, and excellent works have appeared frequently.
Sorry to watch this movie seriously many years after it came out.
The biggest feeling to me is that it is different from other adaptations based on real events. It contains a great amount of information.
1. Emotional changes. Chronicles of character emotions. Although the time span of the movie is only about one year, in this year, the children went from anticipation to disappointment to despair and numbness. It is represented by many "symbols". You know, it's an emotion for their mother.
Second, the actual outcome. Compared with the original story, this ending has been much milder. However, for the protagonist, brother Ming, in the middle of the movie, he went to make friends with bad boys, play games, and "spend", I think this is an escape behavior under his strong pressure. Presumably every audience is shouting in their hearts, hoping that someone will help them, there are, salespersons, young ladies. People may even think that it is easy to change the ending, but the truth is, these cannot change the ending.
It was Hirokazu Kore-eda, who also discussed family relationships earnestly and frankly in "Like Father Like Son" and "Walking Forward" in the past two years. There are many cases where the same director's style in Japan is found to be consistent. This is probably the craftsmanship they uphold.
