    It is wrong to expect sudden happiness

    The background is Japan after World War II. The protagonist Noriko is 27 years old. In my boudoir, I like to be with my father very much. The actor, when he smiles, really stretches his brows and eyes, which is very infectious. Professor Zeng Gong is Noriko's father, widowed at an early age,...

    Sorry I can't really empathize

    Based on my current view of marriage, love and family, I really can't empathize with this movie... When I watched it, especially when I watched the long words my father said to his daughter, I thought of what Buckwheat said, "The so-called life The tragedy is the excessive desire for happiness.”...

    There is no Japanese aesthetic that moves me

    The film tells the story of how an "older young woman" was "married" by her father hhh. The plot is very simple, focusing on the interaction between the characters, which is also in line with the reserved and reserved character of the Japanese. The 49-year-old film, from today's perspective, is...

    Choices often come when life is coerced by age

    late spring

    Different from the grand narrative, Ozu is keen to carry out nuanced analysis of post-war Japanese society, especially family society. From this point of view, he seems to be talking about the past of his neighbors, and he can't help but let us sigh and sigh about life. change.

    "Late Spring"

    Discuss family and marriage relationships in an era where people's ideas are gradually modernized. The heroine's inner world is too good, the kind of concern and reluctance to her father, the rejection, hesitation and ultimately helpless acceptance when faced with the traditional imposition of her...

    Ozu's first work in and out of the pit

    Because I like Hirokazu Koreeda and Hou Hsiao-hsien, Ozu Yasujiro is destined to be someone who cannot be bypassed. Late Spring is my first work with Ozu, the same familiar narrative style of long shots, airscapes, scenes and limbs instead of lines, and calm and blank narrative style, but perhaps...

    Awakening of individual consciousness and female consciousness

    Discuss that people are bound by established rules all their lives, and there is no chance of respite at all, especially in that particular era, women can only be reduced to men's appendages. Husbands can remarry after widowhood, but women have the right to choose. nothing. The most terrifying...

    Stressed the happiness so many times

    When I watched it many years ago, I also always looked forward to the appearance of the groom. I wanted to see what the groom who had been discussing for so long looked like? But this time, after forgetting the details of the plot, I no longer wonder what the groom looks like. I think that's what...
