Today, let's talk about the movie "Noriko's Table".
Noriko No Shokutaku / Noriko's Dinner Table (2005), Kata nayako, in the process of going out.
Director Yuan Ziwen is most famous for his ability to come up with some exciting images, and the originally unremarkable film immediately looks intriguing under the eye-catching lens he suddenly created.
In recent years, films such as "We Are All Super-Powered" (2013) and "Real Devil Games" (2015) have played this kind of way, and the extremely curious pictures are placed in the absurd story, vaguely telling a big truth.
"Noriko's Table" also has a very eye-catching point: 54 female high school students from all over Japan, holding hands and smiling, collectively suicide on the subway in Tokyo.
The subway rushed by, and the flower season teenager who was smiling like a nightmare one second turned into a screen full of blood in the next second.
The most critical scene of the whole film is thus completed.
The key scene of "Noriko's Table" also appeared in Yuan Ziwen's previous work Circular Suicide (2001).
The two films do have a connection.
The story in Noriko's Table takes place before, during, and after the Cyclic Suicide incident, and is intended to help show the story behind everything that happens in that film.
Don't look at the label of "Kiko's Table" is labeled "horror", in fact, the story is a literary film that explores family affection, with some eye-catching shots that Yuan Ziwen is best at.
Except for the fact that there is too much plasma in some shots, the rest of the content is endless monologues and reflections.
Noriko's Table won the 2005 FICC Award at the 2005 Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic and the Best Newcomer Award at the 2007 Yokohama Film Festival (Yuriko Kikaka).
The story of "Noriko's Table" seems absurd, but it is actually closely integrated with real life.
For more than 20 years, Japan's economy has been flat, and everyone feels extremely empty.
Work, study, and life are all full of boring tastes.
In this context, the family rental service of pretending to be a loved one to rent out oneself was born. They can parasitize in this way, and they can escape the real world.
Noriko, a girl who ran away from home during her rebellious youth, met Kumiko, who was engaged in family rental through online chat. In this way, Noriko followed Kumiko into various families.
Not long after, Noriko's sister Yuka followed her sister's footsteps and came to Tokyo to join the family for rent.
Their father, Tetsuzo, began a painful journey to find his daughter in order to find him.
A group of troubled teenagers who have run away from home, without being exposed to society, begin to provide psychological comfort to people with emotional needs.
As long as the money is in place, the family can rent it out, the family can also buy and sell, and the most ironic thing is that the people who provide the services are the people who abandon the original family.
It is a great irony to expect love from these loveless people.
The home rental service providers are very paranoid and don't know whether to say that they are too deep into the play or too dedicated.
They escape their original identities by pretending to be other people's families. Sometimes you can even die for it, like teenagers who like to go to extremes in adolescence.
The girls who are in the flower season are only on the road to extinction because they are depressed, and the whole process is not enough to move themselves, which shows that the consequence of destroying the fighting spirit of young people is to lose both.
Noriko and Yuka's parents always like to make choices for their children according to their own wishes.
There is no doubt that parents will be good for their children, but there are some deficiencies in methods and methods.
Parents give results directly, but do not explain the process.
Chezo did not communicate much with his daughters, only a few words of dialogue during the meal. When choosing the future path for the children, they only give simple and rude conclusions, but do not have the patience to explain.
If Tetsuzo had been able to do a good job of thought guidance with reason and emotion, I believe that Kiko and Yuka would not have made such a sad result for everyone.
The biggest significance of "Noriko's Table" is to take it as a warning, find problems with your own family, and strengthen communication and psychological counseling.
The family is the cell of society, and if the children's ideological problems can be solved at the dinner table, there will not be so many tragedies.
The hunting picture contains practical significance,
The absence of emotional appeal is a warning.
