The Japanese film Confessions – a profound discussion of human nature and life

author:Daily recommendation of the shadow

Hello everyone, I am Nichiren Youying. Today I recommend the Japanese movie "Confession" for everyone.

A person's growth will determine a person's personality, and the distorted personality is like a broken piece of the puzzle, and if it misses a small piece of it, it is no longer complete. Perhaps there is a demon in everyone's bones, either hidden in the unknown or rampant without reservation, so that the former becomes good and the latter is called evil.

Synopsis

This is an ordinary junior high school. At the class meeting of the first grade B class, the class teacher Yuko Moriguchi (Takako Matsu) stunned all the students. A few months ago, Moriguchi's only daughter (Aisuke Ashida) was found dead in the school swimming pool, and the police finally determined that it was an accident, but she knew that the real culprit was actually two students in her class. Morikochi declared to PrisonerS A and Prisoner B, who are protected by juvenile law: "This matter will not end like this, and I will punish you in a way that is beyond imagination." ”

Moriguchi immediately quit his job. Prisoner A came to school as usual, but Prisoner B stopped going to school.

The new head teacher is a hot-blooded young man named Terada Yoshiki (Shosei Okada). He found that there was bullying in the class, and the target of bullying was the top-performing prisoner A. Terada severely condemned the act, believing that someone had provoked the incident out of jealousy. For Prisoner B, Terada decided to make a home visit to persuade him to return to school.

Ever since he was frightened by Moriguchi's announcement, Prisoner B has been hiding in his room, not only not going out, but even not cutting his hair or taking a shower. The mother who doted on her son was very sad to see him turn into this. She was very dissatisfied with the teacher, convinced that in the death of the class teacher's daughter, the son was not responsible, he was just deceived by a bad friend and helped a little.

No one expected that Terada's home visit would lead to an unexpected situation.

Is the root of sin the evil of human nature or the unattainable love?

Is the Japanese violent aesthetic film Confession a satire of "the beginning of man, the nature of goodness" or an interrogation of "the sound of the disappearance of important things"?

Clear shots, lyrical music, pure and unsullied noise, smiling and a clean school uniform were my first impressions of the film. Beautiful slow-down, beautiful fantasy, time-lapse of large clouds floating in the sky, it looks like a two-hour MV. Perhaps this is the most typical feature of Japanese cruel youth films - the coexistence of beauty and ugliness, gentle and sharp peers, the companionship of lightness and pain, and the most romantic tones and music to let people see the most cruel and sad pictures. This contrast is probably the most ironic.

This is a movie about "revenge". The film confesses from the perspective of five people about the unexpected death of the daughter of the unmarried female teacher Moriguchi Aimi - the Moriguchi teacher who lost her husband (fiancé), the dark girl Kitahara Mizuki who collected many poisons and tried to commit suicide, the inferior and timid teenager Naoki B, the mother of Naoki who doted on her son, and the perverted teenager A Shuya who missed her mother desperately for her mother's attention. Five people, five different stories, five similar fates.

This Japanese movie, when watching the whole film, I can only say that only Japanese people can make such a movie. Because, no race, as perverted as they are; No race has revealed this perversion so profoundly as they have. You can't help but admire them, of course not to admire their perversion, but to admire that perversion can also be so vividly expressed, and you can't help but admit that maybe you are not as extremely perverted as they are, but these perverted factors, as long as you are human, in the cells of your body, it will definitely lurk.....
