Far Far Away

About the beginning of a story may have the poor land of Japan's interior and the sea with dark tides.

And the huge shadows left by the departure of one by one are like countless bugs in the heart of this woman named Gongzi, screaming frantically until her face is full of vicissitudes. The sudden disappearance of her grandmother when she was very ill, and her husband's suicide for no reason when he was an adult are all sudden sorrows. Marrying someone again and changing a place, does everyone think that the distant place must be a better place? This time, the gentle husband and stepdaughter, and then the deep self-blame and doubts sounded like bombs.

Legend has it that there is a phantom light in the depths of the sea, which will shine with charming light and lure fishermen to it.

This movie is called Magic Light, and if it reminds you of Green Light, it's really off topic, even I have a lot of respect for Rohmer.

There were very few moving shots, and seeing him fix the height of the camera at that small height, he couldn't help but think of Ozu, the gentle Ozu's usual technique.

It was in 1995 that Hirokazu Kore-eda directed the first virtual film "Phantom Light". The first work won the New Director Award at the 10th Takasaki Film Festival, and the new color won the Gold Award at the 52nd Venice Film Festival. It has won several awards at international film festivals. It was Hirokazu Kore-eda that became a promising and promising new director in the Japanese film industry, and he began to attract the attention of the world film industry.

In 1998, the director's second work "Beautiful Life" won the top prize at the Nantes Film Festival in France and was highly praised in various countries. And in more than 30 countries around the world, more than 200 movie theaters in the United States. It has set off a wave of Japanese independent films all over the world. The third work "Distant" became an entry in the competition section of the Ghana Film Festival in 2001.

After graduating from college, he joined the Association of Television Workers. Mainly engaged in the creation of documentaries, during this period he directed "The Age of No Welfare" and won the Best Work Award at the 28th Japan Celebrity Awards.

The foundation of this kind of documentary is shown incisively and smoothly in "The Next Stop, Kingdom of Heaven", with a large number of documentary-style interviews, handheld photography, realistic set props, lines and lighting, and the strong realism makes this illusory work become In a trance. After all, death and memory, and choice.

For happiness and life, the ethics are completely subverted, and after staying out of the way, they pursue the clues of their predecessors.

At the 57th Cannes Film Festival, it was Hirokazu Kore-eda who made Ichiya Lemiyu and "Nobody Knows" proud, not only the youngest actor in Cannes history, but also the expressionless but desolate director he directed. a drama. Between the unintentional capture of the shot, the framing and soundtrack are moderated. The four children walked side by side under the sun.

I suddenly remembered that lovely 80-year-old lady, the red, cherry and green plantain who lived in her childhood memories.

The film I watched recently was "The Warrior of Flowers". According to the director Hirokazu Koreeda, "The Warrior of Flowers" (花よりもなほ, Hana), a "samurai film" that is playing the banner of "anti-Bushido", is a response. In the present world after September 11, the movie is to learn from the past and persuade people to give up revenge.

In fact, you can't have too intense feelings and expectations for a new film from a favorite director at any time. Even so, the idea of ​​​​changing identities through art and education is still very interesting.

Cherry blossoms fall because they know that they will bloom again in the coming year.

After Maoyan, Junichi Okada was rarely seen again, and he still had that dull face.

The reason is that Shizhi kept repeating his question about reincarnation. Yu Nan in "Illusionary Light" is the reincarnation of his grandmother, "The Next Stop, Heaven" has a constant back-and-forth life style and personnel handover, a kind of representative rebirth in "Distance", to "Flower" "The Warrior" is the cherry blossom of the coming year.

Sometimes standing in one place, watching the distant mountains, the air, the water, and the river gradually receding, the white smoke coming out in the winter, the narrow and stable path with straw on both sides of the imagination. I live a constant life, and I don't experience the complicated family background changes in the autumn.

There is no sadness and I can't cry for a long time. Habitually waiting for departure to say goodbye, torturing himself with any strange posture and mentality and hurting others by the way. Standing still from one place, looking at the past, descending and descending, descending, descending, descending, landing in an unknown unkind place, unable to find a substitute, unable to express my intentions and trying my best, infinitely huge dust and strange numbers flashing on my mobile phone, The blue light screen of the computer is accelerating the persecution of Chen Xiaoliu's life that may not be powerful. Trying to find a deserted temple or a hungry street in the middle of the night doesn't really help.

The entanglement is with the increasing laziness and indulgence of the day, travel is meaningless, and it will become brighter with summer. Then I am an amphibian that can hibernate, and my emotions are always vague. The male protagonists of Hirokazu Koreeda are usually very beautiful, but Tadanobu Asano foolishly appeared for about ten minutes at the end, and the shots were taken very well.

Tsukamoto Shin also laid the cult theoretical foundation of using violence to vent his repression, and Miike Takashi was a practitioner who popularized and applied this theory. Rather than looking at the murderous Hajime, look at the gentleness of Hirokazu-eda.
In the 1960s, he was also a witness that some large film organizations frequently faced the crisis of collapse and bankruptcy in the late 1980s, chrysanthemums and knives, the new wave.

It is a mighty new century, and it has nothing to do with politics. If you want to carry forward the spirit of patriotism and publicize national heroism, please do not attack merrily. The so-called study hard every day and strive to achieve N modernizations, then work hard.

I just want to go to a place where there is peace and no traces of my heart, where the lights of thousands of homes are full of brilliance.
In the light and shadow of Hirokazu-eda, the distance is far away.
