Appreciation of the movie "Little Forest Summer and Autumn"

The opening chapter is about a small village located in a valley. The sky above the valley is shrouded in milky white moisture, like a fairyland.

Protagonist’s narration: Looking down from the mountain pass during a clear break in the continuous rain, Komori seems to be sleeping under steam, and the water vapor in the soil is scrambling to be emitted. Komori is located at the bottom of the basin. The water vapor from the mountains is constantly pouring in, and the humidity is rising... As a result, a lush small village surrounded by green fields appears in front of you, peaceful and peaceful. , and have no fight with the world.

The film is composed of beautiful and poetic scenes of rural life. There are few characters and few lines. Most of them are the protagonist working in the fields, cooking various foods at home, and a lot of narration. As a result, the film has a tranquil atmosphere that other films do not have.

Sow in spring, manage in summer, harvest in autumn, store in winter, follow the laws of the four seasons. Work at sunrise and rest at sunset, self-sufficient, somewhat like the paintings of Grandma Moses, full of warm life atmosphere.

Every line in the film is rich in philosophy and in line with the consistent Japanese aesthetics-plain, simple, yet thought-provoking. It is the protagonist who never relies on or searches for anything. In silence and hard work, he slowly re-understands the meaning of life and returns to his true feelings about life.

"Fruits that fall on the ground can only rot slowly. They work hard to grow and bear fruit, but in the end they are in vain. - Let's make you into jam."

"Cooking can reveal people's hearts - is this the color of my heart now?"

"It is difficult to change the habits of childhood, and childhood experience is very important."

I remember when I was a child, in autumn, my grandmother picked the unripe red bean pods, tied them into small handfuls with straw and steamed them on the rice pot. They were our after-dinner snacks, tender, fragrant and fresh. Or peel the red beans and cook red bean rice. With that natural food aroma, I can eat two more bowls of rice. The shells of the pods were peeled off, and grandma wove them into little crabs, which crawled on the table one by one, which was extremely interesting.

On a cool morning after the frost, my neighbor was drinking a bowl of soup made from fresh red beans. The heat was pouring from the large, simple, thick magnetic bowl. It was a particularly warm and delicious happiness. .

These are childhood memories that will never be forgotten again.

In the early morning, Shizi walked through the deserted fields. She said, "The rice will grow up listening to the footsteps of people." The water in the rice fields was almost dry, so she squatted on the ridge. Listen. Hearing the sound of running water, she walked over and found that the mole had drilled a hole into the field bank. She stretched out her foot and stepped on the hole.

On a summer night, she sat alone under the lamp and read a book. Uninvited guests kept coming towards the light outside the house: moths, unicorn fairies, fireflies...

While picking Hudana seeds, she said: "I am a country girl, and the only thing I can compare with is my physical strength, but he I can catch it, but I can’t, and I feel so unwilling.”

These are the beauties that belong exclusively to movies, and are life processed through art. It comes from life, but abandons the trivialities and hardships of life. Just like Tao Yuanming's poem: "Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the Nanshan Mountain." But in real life, it is: "It is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil."
