In real life, people's emotions will always have a process of trying to suppress, and when emotions are suppressed but really difficult to suppress and finally revealed, it is moving.

The dance steps of Hiroshi Hiroshi, a middle-aged Japanese man, will fully illustrate this game that Asians enjoy tirelessly: indulgence and moderation.

In "Talk about Love Dancing", this middle-aged man opens a window for his life in tango.

Originating in Argentina, South America, tango is a dance with clean steps and is popular with intermittent music and special rhythms. Its dance steps close together, as if the human heart is indulging and festival production with the sudden rise and fall of desire.

Seeking happiness is also seeking a comedic effect, "Talk about Love Dancing" allows Japanese people with short legs to learn ballroom dance, let the Japanese who are used to bowing their heads and stand up, and let the Japanese who are breathless in the living space slide around with a shelf on the big dance floor.

At the beginning of the film, the Scottish scholar is quoted to clarify that dance and music are invented by human beings themselves, and can bring about the original pleasures of human beings, which is a kind of spiritual release that is uncertain about what.

The story is very simple, just like the vast middle class in Japan, after hard work, marrying and having children, buying a house and other rules and regulations to reach the age of confusion, the protagonist Sugi, suddenly deeply feel the tedium of life, even if you work hard to pay off the loan can not stimulate the goal of life, in the perennial suppressed mechanical life, has lost the impulse of human instinct.

And a rare curiosity, Sugiyama went to learn to dance ballroom dance in order to get close to a beautiful dance teacher, and fell in love with ballroom dance, from which he experienced happiness; and the dance teacher whom Sugiyama loved also realized the true meaning of dancing from teaching Sugiyama to dance.

The film reflects the harshness of the living space of Japan through a large number of details.

Japan is developed by the Japanese people to follow the rules, robot-like desperate work, at the same time, the mechanical life makes people become numb, in the orbit of the cycle of life to lose the pursuit of the goal, the formation of inferiority, darkness, voyeuristic mentality. Under the pressure of unhealthy mentality and tedious life, people are becoming more and more unhappy, which is a common disease of modern metropolises.

Day after day, Sugiyama said to breakfast every day: I want to eat.

In the tram, Sugiyama read books and was crowded together, the stairs were crowded up and down, and the living space was also full of partitions of horizontal and vertical lines, corresponding to which Sugiyama entered the dance hall, and the space was spacious.

Every day when Sugiyama goes to work, he has to ride through a bridge (road), on the road Sugiyama's body language is happier and happier, and when the road is last seen, the camera shakes from this road to another road, and the space suddenly expands. In a large number of repetitive scenes, the film draws out a delicate emotional vein.

The small space makes it difficult for Japanese people to have privacy, which prompts them to keep their privacy secret on the one hand, and on the other hand, they can't help but spy on others.

The first time Sugiyama saw the dance teacher by the window of the dance classroom in the tram, it was like seeing a trace of curiosity in boredom, and this curiosity became the sustenance of every day, and when he peeked at the tram for the third time, the dance teacher opened the window. Every time the dance teacher appeared, there was a window open next to him.

Sugiyama and Aoki were reluctant to register for liaison offices, and both chose to learn to dance far from home, and Aoki appeared in a disguised outfit with full armor, doing his best to cover up.

On the other hand, Sugiyama spied on the dance teacher several times, the dance teacher has been peeping under the window in the night, his wife and daughter peeping at Sugiyama's clothes, and his wife hired a detective to eavesdrop on Aoki... You can see the Voyeurism complex of the Japanese.

And voyeurism is the unity of indulgence and moderation.

Many Japanese films that explore the emotional problems of middle-aged men seem to have a unified temperament, and even the actors are so few.

In "Talk About Love, Dance", the male protagonist Sugiko is played by Hiroshi Seisho, and of course, the male protagonist in "Paradise Lost"; the supporting actor Aoki is played by Naoto Takenaka, the lead actor and director in "Tokyo Hiwa".

Hiroshi Hiroshi Yukisho began to learn to dance because of his crush on a dance teacher, and this story is easy to come up with. Obviously, the director is not satisfied with telling an emotional story, he wants to elevate dance to a relationship of "dancing and being human".

With this in mind, the film is almost about to become Xie Jin's "Stage Sisters".

And "Talk About Love Dancing" sublimates this almost harsh meaning, properly delicate, moisturizing and silently conveying it, and finally transcends the theme of love and enters a Zen realm of life thinking, which shows that the director's skills are extraordinary.

While doing all this, "Talk about Love Dancing" also has a sense of humor, and the film still maintains a light comedy style. This may also be a technique brought about by "indulgence and moderation".

It is better to follow the tango of Hiroshi Hiroshi of the Service House and get a peek at how the Japanese are dancing, talking about love, and how to have a restrained affair, so that the soul can take a step away and obediently return home.

I'm going to start eating. What about you?
