In the Douban movie TOP250, there is a movie that tells an ordinary but not ordinary professional story, "Mortician". In China, people are always more taboo about "death", and places such as morgues are places where ghost stories are frequent. However, the Japanese made the "mortician" a very warm story.
Released in 2008, "The Mortician" was both a foreign film and an era when watching movies was "not convenient enough", and when everyone knew about this classic movie, there was no chance to enjoy it in the cinema. Today, it is the series of lifetimes, the 4K restored version of "The Mortician" is released, and everyone has the opportunity to go to the cinema to see this classic in person.
The mortician tells the story of an unemployed and highly indebted cellist, Daigo Kobayashi, who engaged in the mortician profession for a high salary. At first, Xiaolin was naturally like ordinary people, afraid of death, but after gradually deepening into this special industry, he began to love and admire the profession of mortician from the heart, which represented the respect for the deceased and the cherishing of life.
In The Little Pill's understanding, death is far less terrible than being alive. After all, everything in the world has nothing to do with him as soon as his eyes are closed, but he has to face various problems in life. This is also the real problem that this film explores, that is, how to face your own life, how to love your own life.
