Sakura Ando still plays a decadent and ordinary girl, and even ordinary people live a more miserable life. After reading her love of 100 yuan, I can't forget her swollen eyes and messy dress. She seems to be explaining a truth: a person who combines shortcomings can also shine.
Only when she went to Douban did she know that she came from a family of performing artists. This film is directed by her sister based on her own novel, and she is the protagonist. This movie is nothing like playing house with two sisters. Among the hundreds of movies I have seen, it is of a good level.
The film is divided into five paragraphs, echoing from beginning to end, with three paragraphs inserted in the middle. Tell the story of the nurse and some old people he met when he was wandering after an unexpected unemployment, and listen to the story of their old age. The film touches a small group of people who are often neglected in society, and it may also be what we will look like in the future.
Sakura Ando plays Saga, a care worker who takes care of the elderly. She is homeless and taciturn. One day, the daughter of a family member made a reluctant request to her: sleeping with the paralyzed old man, he missed his wife's chest. Every story involves the topic of "sex", which is the innate desire of human beings. Even if it is close to death, desire will come out in generate, and this old man named Kataoka is the best interpretation.
In the middle of the night, even if his hands and feet were inconvenient, Kataoka began to lick Sasuke's face crazily. When he woke up, Sasuke instinctively pushed him away. This "push" also pushed the story to a climax. When the old man met the toaster, his clothes caught fire and he died suddenly. Sasuke shouted and rolled down the stairs, and found that Kataoka's daughter had hanged herself, and this woman's rebellious daughter Xiao really looked on coldly. At this point, the three people formed a triangle, which happened to be framed in the tragedy.
The background music is cheerful and jumping, like Joe Hisaishi's concert, with Sasuke's red dress and frightened eyes. However, what is still unsatisfactory is the story behind the story: the old man Kataoka seems to be incestuous with his daughter, and Sasuke's red dress was dyed, which was originally white. The old man likes to watch his wife wear this dress, and later his daughter also wore it. The atmosphere in his home is very strange, his daughter is emotional, his grandson's dress is dumb, and his son-in-law still hates him after decades of absence.
After a period of bad luck, Sasuke was successfully fired. She wandered about the street with her savings. She doesn't know where to go. She just stepped on the train, but fell asleep in it. When she got off the bus, she left her coat, even though it contained 500 thousand yen. When it was discovered, the train had already left. At this time, Zuohe stuck to the fence like a piece of waste paper and looked at the end of the track in despair. That is all her savings.
I couldn't help laughing at the scene when this man hit the bottom, because Zoe's sad face was so serious before the light music stopped. Just like "One Hundred Dollars of Love", her role is always decadent like a tramp, taking away all the bad things, but she will always meet some surprises at the next moment, so I have some expectations.
Sure enough, after seeing the enthusiastic Camfrog, a small gesture of handing money made people burst into tears.
Zuo he passed KTV aimlessly and took the opportunity to pretend to be friends and entered the box together. Although they don't know each other, lonely people don't need to know the past together. Kangfu's children had a fierce quarrel over property, so the old man had to run away from home and planned to spend all his money.
They sang all night, and when they left KTV the next day, Zuohe realized that Kangfu couldn't even protect himself and could not take her home. When shaking hands, Camfrog quietly gave Sasuke 1 10,000 yen. After parting, I took two steps, turned around and gave my coat to Sasuke, who was wearing thin clothes.
In this photo, Kangfu stands in the middle of a sunny road, while Zuohe stands in the shade. Camford's sentence "Zuohe, come here" makes Zuohe very warm. Off-screen, I was also moved by this lovely old man who went out with an oxygen bottle. He suffers from family indifference, but he treats others carefully and enthusiastically with long-lost sincerity.
The old man coming out below, to be honest, I'm a little scared.
An old man who lives alone actually looks more like a mental patient. In the park early in the morning, he did a few strange morning exercises with bare arms, climbed along the ditch again, cut and locked a bicycle on the side of the road to ride freely, ran to the parking shed and stabbed people he didn't like. ...
I don't know if Zuohe is ignorant or fearless. I dare to catch him and threaten him that I witnessed the process of tying the car and walked into the home of the mentally ill old man smoothly.
His name is Mao, and he is a retired car mechanic. His only daughter is unwilling to take care of him. His only friend is a fake salesman watching his10 million pension.
After Sasuke exposed the scam, the naughty Amao became a wrong child. He hung his head and said that it didn't matter if the money was cheated. He just wants to be good friends with Fujizhai, because only the other side is willing to listen to him.
Looking back on the previous story, we will find that he greeted a stranger in the carport in the morning, but the other party ignored him. At that time, he felt angry and swore, which actually reflected his inner loneliness and extreme desire to communicate with others.
Finally, Amao successfully sent himself to a nursing home, where the buildings were magnificent and a group of people lined up on the steps to welcome the new couple. In the public eye, everyone will be proud of being like a king, but he doesn't. Instead, I feel a little frustrated.
Because he lost. After the last friendship was stamped with the seal of "fake and shoddy", he finally could not bear loneliness and compromised his retirement life. Soon, he will join the group of old people, standing on the steps, watching the arrival of new people, clapping and smiling mechanically.
Zuohe drove her precious car and continued on the road. At the next stop, she met a university professor who came back from the army, and her outlook on life was impacted. Her expression level gradually enriched, and the plot slowed down, moving towards the edge of abstraction. I'm beginning to get confused. )
The professor has a wife. Her wife is very beautiful. She studies music. But now she is paralyzed in bed, and the name of the lover she calls when she is unconscious is actually someone else. Unlike others, the professor's loneliness rose to the national level, and he felt pain because of the war.
In the long shot of more than ten minutes, the handsome face of the professor looks old and haggard, and at this time he has fallen into Alzheimer's disease. He repeatedly mentioned the stupidity and evil of war and felt meaningless and sorry for the dead life. He is a soldier retired from Japan. He personally went to the battlefield to confront American soldiers and witnessed blood and death.
He mentioned in the tape he left Sasaki when he was awake that people who are pushed to the limit will shine with spiritual brilliance. Overcome the limit and wake up as an individual. That is the power that can make him move mountains, and it is everyone's heart.
This abstract sentence should be the theme of the whole movie. I think this sentence is to awaken the people's numbness on a large scale and encourage Zuo He on a small scale, because she is still humble and kind in adversity.
At the last stop, Zuohe met the original Xiaozhen, a lonely girl whose mother and grandfather died on the same day.
When they met, Xiaozhen stole something to eat in the shop. After losing her relatives, she lived with her father, whom she had never met. In a room full of rubbish, her father loves to drink and often beats Xiao Zhen. One day, Xiaozhen threw away all the books and waved scissors to cut Xiaozhen's hair.
Xiaozhen's family is very complicated. The film didn't make it clear, but it did push a girl into a corner, causing her to dress up as a woman and overeat. She is not stupid, but she never talks. Only books are her only spiritual outlet.
Finally, when Zuohe drove away with Xiaozhen, Xiaozhen's father couldn't help touching her head, looking guilty and distressed. Xiaozhen also looked back at his father's figure in the car, because the family forgave him at heart.
With injuries on his face and heart, Zuohe drove past rows of houses, over mountains and across the sea. At this time, the light is blurred and the color is gray. Zuo He, who was sitting in the car, had tears in his eyes and looked at the empty front. Perhaps, the old people left behind are lonely and helpless, but the young people on the road are also tired and injured, and they can't see the road ahead clearly.
At this time, the soundtrack is a low and sad female voice. If the first symphony is a joke of fate, then the sadness here is the sadness that rises from the bottom of my heart after being teased.
What the professor said before should be the theme of the whole movie: Japanese people nowadays are unloved and can't find someone to love. They were distorted by a pair of acting and reacting forces, lost their direction, and only saw their confused selves, so they stopped working for others and ended their lives.
0.5 mm. Everyone only cares about themselves and is unwilling to move for others. Even if it is only 0.5 mm, then the reform will not happen, selfishness will continue, and the bound human nature will have nowhere to vent and will gradually distort. ...
