"I've never loved anyone deeper than the sea, even though I'm old enough, most people haven't loved anyone that way, but life goes on, we still enjoy every day, in fact, we live because we don't live like that." 」 - "Deeper Than the Sea"
"The so-called happiness, if you can't learn to put it down, you will never be able to be happy."
As a very bland reality movie, I have seen several movies that Kore-eda like, and this one needs to be slowly reminisced. The adult world is full of helplessness, have the courage to become someone else's past, is a mature person, just because they know the cruelty of life, they should not step on the wrong rhythm, can not withstand gambling.
Give up something at the right time to get a little happiness.
At the beginning of the film, it is a small talk between a mother and daughter, so real that people can't help but want to chat with them. It shows a real life of ordinary people, without deliberate sensationalism or disguise, so that we can have psychological resonance without noticing the differences between countries and cultures.
The background of the film shows the details of Japan's aging society everywhere, and I can't help but wonder, will China be like this in the future?
The male protagonist, like the male protagonist of "Squid Game", is a personal loser, gambling stick, nibbling on the old, divorced, children look down on, nest waste, one label after another, even if it is a big handsome guy like Abe Kuan Lee Zhengzai, he has to become a dirty and greasy uncle.
But the real life is like this, the vast majority of people are ordinary people with their own shortcomings, basically do not even have the opportunity to become a late bloomer. But to survive is already a very important thing to work on.
Then again, I can't help but love every character in it, and the lady who is desperately trying to save the relationship between her son and his ex-wife should be afraid that her son will have no relatives after he is gone. Even if the wife didn't use it well but had come over for so many years, a lot of people didn't show up but would have no intention of teaching him.
Many are the kind of people who are angry but mourn their misfortunes, and I always think that many people don't know how to correct themselves, even if they divorce their ex-wives, as long as they correct them, they can save a lot? I like Machida, a colleague who often helps a lot, and I like Makoto, my son, Makoto, and I may see the shadow of my childhood...
The only thing that can capture the glitz and splendor of life so well is probably Kore-eda.
From far and near, and then from near to far, the camera outlines the ordinary life of a character who can no longer be ordinary, but still makes every viewer feel something, that is, because the life of the film lens is the projection of our life. Kiki Shirin is tepid, and the performance that gives personality makes the interior of the camera full of life.
Life is actually full of drama, because things happen in an inhuman way. But it is not dramatic, because it is trivial and trivial. Everything came quietly, and everything came suddenly. However, the distance of the shot of the branch has not yet looked at life and death as coldly as Hou Dao, and he restrains but still retains an emotional temperature.
Because I always see the person in the painting gradually entering the depths of the picture. It is also worth mentioning the overlooked but just right sound effect that sets off the atmosphere. And that scene chasing the lottery in the rain, doesn't that concern the reality of each of us?
From how my life became like this, to how it was part of my life anyway; from never loving someone as deep as the sea, to being happier because of nothing. I always felt that Kore-eda was implicitly exhorting us not to immerse ourselves in the "sea" we had created for ourselves.
Sometimes life is to withdraw in time and give up at the right time to achieve happiness. But sometimes, it's not that people don't want to get out of the deep sea, it's that they lack a rope that can take them ashore. The protagonist's rope is the typhoon that happened to appear and the unexpected expectation of my father; when will my rope appear?
Becoming a teenager who you don't want to be, looking for the next marriage that is not all love, and trying to close the cracks in the family. Some things are not in time, and when you look in the direction of uncontrollable, life can only continue to go down. Social Darwinism may not be able to accept it, everything is not necessarily going to be good, because it boils down to not working hard enough, not being strong enough.
Kore-eda is too good at photographing the lives of middle-aged and elderly people, and many immaturities and Naruko's disappointment in him are evident in every look and expression. However, after the youth period of fierce quarrels, no one no longer crosses the line to accuse the other party of anything, and silently accepts the limitations of themselves and the other party, and also accepts the unsatisfactory life.
At the end, the picture of Grandma watching them leave waving upstairs is really sad, can life be like this? Life is always like this...
Here is the epitome of many people, when the male protagonist and the mother hold the back on the road, faintly feel sad and beautiful. As a mother, I think she is very good, even if the husband and son gamble, but they have not given up, even if they know the situation of their son, maybe he will be late.
It's like the line: "It doesn't matter if the dream becomes a reality or not, what matters is to have the courage to chase the dream." "When people are gone, no matter how deep their thoughts are, they cannot bring them back, and they should be treated with care while they are alive."
I don't know how to cherish the present, always chase what has been lost, dream of unfulfilled wishes, how to be happy and happy when bound by these is not to give up something. Deeper than the sea, bluer than the sky. Perhaps people are happy in such an ordinary life because they do not love anyone who is deeper than the sea and bluer than the sky.
To die alone without adding trouble is easier for yourself and those who are still alive, but this is a lie, whether you are bedridden for several years and cannot die, or you die alone. Often dreaming is the final answer for you? What do you want to be when you grow up? Have you become the person you want to be?
The movie is very bland, but it has a variety of life.
Abe's sloppy appearance is too good, there are many unsatisfactory lives, and it is also the shadow and resonance of many people.
Kiki Shirin contributed the last superb acting skills of her life, and the people who watched it sighed, and the tears couldn't stop coming down, which was too touching to the heart. Yoko Maki's expression is still so delicate, and she likes her final relieved smile, this is a movie that must not be missed.
Having said all that, what is deeper than the sea? Is it a hopeless adult life that sinks and is torn between debt and debt repayment? Is it everyone's hidden private life? Or is it the contradiction between the principle of dreams and survival?
I think, all include, and more importantly, the old mother's meticulous love for herself, and her sister's feelings of hatred for herself. Life is like a movie, there is no ending, no one knows how the story will develop, no matter what, time will pass day by day, as for how to live, see yourself.
