Tokyo Literature and Art Times

Shigeru stood outside the wall of a large house, and immediately changed the scene, giving it to Takako in the room.

Takako was sitting in front of the floor table, with her elbows on the table, her palms dragging her chin, and she looked straight ahead with no expression on her face.

What's ahead?

A window, and... a shoe, up, down, up, down.

Ming Cai couldn't laugh when she saw this. This scene is not only funny, but also really sweet.

But next.

The shoes didn't look attractive enough, and Mao picked up a rock.

Clap!

Ming Cai couldn't bear it any longer, and laughed.

Not only her, but the whole theater was full of laughter.

It seems that many people have done such a thing?

Anyway, it's really funny.

Until Takako appeared, the two of them got better again.

Next, the game started again, and the orange peeling girl also followed.

Mao didn't miss out this time, and he even won an award.

The girl peeling oranges had complicated eyes, but in the end, she chose to leave.

On the ferry back, Shigeru and Takako were sitting on a bench, and the two of them were in the center of the picture.

By the way, I just realized that this movie seems to have always been like this, always putting the characters in the center of the screen.

But this time, it feels very special.

Mao is taller, about 170, Takako is shorter, but Takako holds the trophy.

The two of them were like this, without any lines, the sun was setting, and there were smiles on their faces.

What a nice view.

Ming Cai really felt so beautiful, but inexplicably, her tears burst again.

This is Takeshi Iwata alluding to her again, that's it!

That time when he gave up the big prize to that bastard, it caused a lot of trouble in the city.

In fact, what Ming Cai thought was very simple, just like this scene.

He took the prize and then, when we were together, gave himself the trophy to play with.

that's enough.

but……

Ming Cai smiled again, she was laughing at her stupidity.

Look at the two people on the big screen, only innocent people like them can do this.

Thinking of it this way, is Takeshi Iwata mocking himself?

Even if it's sarcasm, it's sarcastic right!

Suddenly, Akina seemed to have figured out something.

She would like to thank Takeshi Iwata, this love film is very well done.

But next...

The camera turned and returned to the familiar road.

But in the beginning there were only roads, and the sea in the distance.

Unlike before, the sky is gloomy today.

Fortunately, Mao appeared in the lens.

He walked alone, from the left to the right of the camera.

No, wasn't it always placed in the middle before?

Until Mao took the surfboard and walked out of the whole shot.

Is something going to happen?

Also, Takako was not seen.

why?

Ming Cai shouted in her heart, she was inexplicably afraid, until Takako appeared with an umbrella.

Oh, I see, it turned out to be because of the rain, so Takako was a little late.

It was nothing, she also went to that beach, that black sand beach.

And when Takako's flower umbrella appeared in the camera, it was obvious that it was an overhead shot. The flower umbrella formed a sharp contrast with the black sandy beach. What about Mao?

The white waves kept coming up, and a lonely surfboard was pushed to the edge of the flower umbrella.

Seeing Ming Cai in this scene, she was dumbfounded.

Do not know when it started, tears wet her clothes.

For the first time, Akina completely cried for this movie, she didn't think about herself.

Takeshi Iwata, you are really too much.

In this shot, you are like a devil, destroying the beauty that was built up for the audience before!

Takako picked up the surfboard. She didn't cry, but took it to the uncle. The uncle drove her and the surfboard to the beach of the competition.

Takako glued a photo of her and Shigeru on the surfboard, and then put the surfboard into the sea.

The uncle didn't say anything, and the car was quiet in the distance.

Takako and Shigeru on the surfboard were smiling.

"Silent Love" drifts to the depths of the sea with the surfboard...

Seeing this ending, Ming Cai's tears still couldn't stop, but there was a smile on her face.

She is sure.

This movie is great, this love is also great, this summer, the sea, the black-hearted boss, the orange peeling girl, the truck driver... all in all are great.

Chapter 081 A movie with tears and laughter, but can it win awards?

applause!Still applause!

Although applause in the screening room doesn't really determine whether a film wins or not, Thierry is satisfied.

The old white flag of France returned to his homeland, and he read "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" again.

This movie really left a deep and beautiful impression on him.

At that time, when he was in the hotel, he watched it several times, and every time he was moved to tears.

Thierry decided that this was an extremely good film, and that such a film should have made it to Cannes.

And now, he's eager to see what the jury thinks about the film, which, after all, is his recommendation.

However, Thierry hesitated, because the chairman of the jury this year is a German.

Wim Wenders.

Last year, he won the Best Director award at the Cannes Film Festival for "Under the Berlin Sky."

A German is the chairman of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival, which makes the old French white flag unhappy, and it is reasonable.

However, at the moment Wenders, the German director was completely moved by this film.

Originally, as the chairman of the jury, you don't need to watch every selected film like the judges, but this "Summer, Tranquil Sea" is different.

Before Shohei Imamura's "Black Rain" failed to enter Cannes, Wenders, who is a German, knows why.

What if the quality of this love movie is not good enough?

Wouldn't that be a shame for the Cannes Film Festival?

A German, for the sake of the French film festival, Wenders really didn't consider himself an outsider.

In the screening room, the jury has its own special viewing seat, with a row of small tables in front of the seats for them to take notes.

But the film quickly made the judges forget to take notes, as did Wenders.

The love between two deaf-mute people is so touching...

Love doesn't need words at all, and that alone is wonderful.

In the end, Mao didn't come back. The scene of the umbrella and the surfboard made the big guide cry.

Generally speaking, these reviewers try to control their emotions as much as possible.

But soon, Wenders laughed again.

Why do you laugh?

After the surfboard floats out to sea, Shigeru reappears.

Of course, this is a tidbit and Takako's memory.

In the memories, Takako and Shigeru have experienced a lot together, and there are many things that were not recorded by the camera before.

For example, Takako was on the beach with a surfboard under Shigeru's gaze, simulating surfing.

First, he was lying on the surfboard with his hands in a rowing posture, and then suddenly got up and stood on the surfboard with his legs slightly bent and his hands balanced, as if he was riding the waves at the moment.

But in terms of posture, there seems to be nothing to see the waves of the sea.

Although she only looked at her back, it was really vivid, which was so funny that it made people laugh.

Why wasn't this scene included in the main film?

Oh, it's probably the last ending, the hero's death was too sudden.

Wenders knows that his mood has been controlled by the director of this film, but he can control it. This is really a good film.

With that said, this movie definitely earned the shortlist for its high quality!

Wenders really broke his heart for the French film festival.

It must be emphasized that the jury of this year's Cannes Film Festival is really not small.

In addition to Wenders, there is a particularly compelling big director.

Krzysztof Kieslowski.

He was born in Poland and is now a French citizen. He is not yet 50 years old this year, but he is already a master of film.

Last year's "Murdering Short" won the Jury Prize, and in 83, "The Fan" won the top prize at the Moscow Film Festival!

Although the Moscow Film Festival is not as famous as the three major European countries and the Oscars, filmmakers around the world are very aware that the artistic level of the Soviet Union is very high.

The bald and messed-up film master looked solemn at the moment.

No one could see his emotions, and in fact, he was thinking of a shot inside.

Almost all the shots before "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" put the characters in the center of the picture.

And only before Mao died, he went surfing alone with a surfboard.

He walked in and out of the camera.

Obviously set the stage for Mao's ending.

This Iwata Takeshi is a master!

The jury also includes a well-known European music master, George Dinesch.

His movie soundtracks are world-renowned and he has won 4 Oscars so far.

In Dinesh's mind, his lifelong enemy was an Italian named Morricone.

Well, even Dinesh admits that Morricone is really good, he is not only prolific, but always shocks the world.
