The film mainly tells about all kinds of people and things that the neighbor uncle and the little boy met on their way to find their mother. As a road movie, sunshine, sunflowers, streets, cornfields and swimming pools all make me feel kind and yearning. I really want to get to summer soon, so that I can eat watermelon, watch a play and listen to cicadas singing and fall asleep.
I believe many people, like me, thought the little boy was "Kikujiro" at the beginning of the movie. At the end of the movie, the little boy asked his neighbor uncle what your name was, and the uncle said, "It's Kikujiro, damn it, let's go." Then we know that the uncle who looks unreliable at all is Kikujiro.
Uncle loves money, he is confused, and it is a kind of street rage. He lost all his money before they set foot on the road to find his mother. Two people bet on which rider will win the bicycle race. Uncle asked the little boy to say two numbers casually, so he bought it. The result is that if you win, you say the little boy is a genius, and if you lose, you say, "How can I say you are a genius?" Seeing this passage, I opened the barrage, and the barrage was full of "one dares to say and one dares to believe", which really made people laugh and cry.
Even if we lose money, we will continue this journey. On the way back, they met a perverted gay (really disgusting), a kind hotel manager, a couple with different personalities but interesting, a novelist who traveled around, a chubby bastard, and a social eldest brother who collected protection money.
Tell me a few fragments that impressed me deeply. One is that when they stayed in a hotel and went swimming, the boy asked his uncle if he couldn't swim. Uncle obviously can't swim, but he still keeps his mouth shut. He jumped into the pool with a swimming ring and paddled hard, but he plunged into the water. Seeing this, I always feel that I am such a landlubber (hahaha). Later, the medical staff asked him if he had any serious problems, and the uncle waved away. Switch to the medical staff who are packing things. At this time, we heard the sound of heavy objects falling into the water. When the camera switched again, we saw the uncle who fell down while walking.
In the second clip, two people were found by gangsters who collected protection money in the night market. Uncle also said "boy, wait here" to the boy and followed the group. The boy has been sitting on the bench waiting for his uncle, but his face was hurt when he came back. At this time, the uncle smiled and said to the boy, "I'm sorry, I fell down the stairs." It really hurts to be here.
The climax of the film is that when the uncle took the little boy to find his mother, he found that her mother had remarried and had another child. The boy left sadly and went to sit by the sea alone. In order to comfort the little boy, his uncle grabbed an angel bell from the wild hand and told him, "Your mother left it for you, so shake the angel." But I think the little boy understands that his mother will not come back and the angel will not come. And uncle is actually the boy's angel.
The plot will develop in the future. Uncle went to the nursing home to find his mother. He didn't say hello to his mother. He just looked at his mother quietly outside the window. At this time, he is no longer a person who can fight gangsters or be busy gambling. At this time, he is just a child who misses and loves his mother. There is only one back and one eye. But I still saw my uncle's love for my mother.
Kitano Takeshi, the director and actor of Kikujiro, said, "It's just a group of boring adults, using playing with children as an excuse." . Indeed, in the film, several adults dress up as fish to comfort the boy, play wood games together and watch them play. I think childhood is probably everyone's favorite time.
At the time of writing this article, the epidemic has not stopped, but I believe that medical staff are our angels. The pain will pass. So I think you can go and see the story of Uncle Kikujiro and that boy, and let this warm movie cure you.
