"Summer of Kikujiro" written by Takeshi Kitano and Joe Hisaishi. Have you watched this summer?

In September, the shadow of summer is gradually leaving. I carefully grasped the slipped tail, hugged it tightly, and accompanied me to watch "Summer of Kikujiro" again, watching the absurd and funny stories on the screen, and feel Looking at the ubiquitous summer landscape.

People have heard the piano music of "Summer of Kikujiro" played by Joe Hisaishi, but few people know that this is actually the title of a movie and was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the 52nd Cannes Film Festival.

The protagonist "Kikujiro" in the film is played by the director of the film, Takeshi Kitano, a famous director who has directed many bloody and violent films.

This film mainly tells the journey of a little boy (zhengnan) following an uncle (Kikujiro) to find his mother in a foreign country.

The well-behaved and introverted boy meets an unreliable uncle who is bullying and fearful of evil. The whole family-hunting journey leads to all kinds of absurd and ridiculous stories, which makes people laugh and cry and is moved by the kind people in the story.

The role of Kikujiro is not a good person in the film. On the contrary, he is a idle, opportunistic, and specializing in bad things. He is middle-aged, has no job, likes gambling, and asks his wife for money if he is out of money. Things like to intimidate others. By the way, I'm an unscrupulous little person.

But it happened to be such a role, leading the little boy all the way to find his mother, and never abandon it. After learning that the boy's mother had already married and abandoned the boy, Kikujiro tried every means to please the sad boy, gave him an angel bell, gave him hope, and made him forget the unpleasantness.

In fact, Kikujiro has the same life experience as Masao, who has been abandoned by his mother since he was a child. He has never felt maternal love, longing for maternal love.

When he saw Zhengnan cry because of his mother, Kikujiro's kindness was touched somewhere in his heart. The same empathy made him understand the pain of the Zhengnan, which made him double the kindness of the Zhengnan.

In addition to Kikujiro and Masao, the young couples, novelists, fat guys, bald guys, hotel waiters, etc. on the journey are all kind people who give Masao a lot of laughter and can feel a lot of positive energy.

In addition to the storyline, the background music and the shooting scenery in the film make people feel comfortable, cheerful and beautiful music, coupled with summer blue sky and white clouds, green leaves and breeze, waves and beaches, people are in a beautiful world without troubles .

In this summer afternoon, lying on the rocking chair, fanning the fan, blowing in the breeze, listening to the cheerful piano music, biting a watermelon from time to time in his mouth, feeling comfortable and reminiscing about the passing pleasant time.
