Even for those who were confused by the plot, another one or two viewing should clear up any misunderstandings. Ī little bit about Japanese life and culture, the emotions of youth, and devotion to an artist then you can watch this movie and understand it.
incidentally, much of the films drama and marvel comes from this quality. however, respectfully, this film does a fine job of depicting its characters and events in a manner that allows for the viewer's empathy without pointing direct fingers or offering direct solutions.
this film is very much based in a realistic society with realistically harsh and shocking issues and occurrences. this is not so much a problem until the viewer begins to feel manipulated in a propaganda-like fashion. with much of what goes on in the world today, filmmakers feel social commentary is an added bonus or even a main goal to depicting a narrative. the film is nothing short of art.lastly, the film did well to keep free of preaching. by the film's closing the style is not so much regretfully confusing as it is fittingly and fully dramatic, as well as both amazing and beautiful. during the non-video portions of the film, the colors are beautifully rich, with verdant fields and saturated skies.the abrupt, but fitting pattern between flowing, dreamlike camerawork, shaky camerawork, textual discourse, and the eerily sensual, fictitious lily chou chou tracks provide a momentum that is both refreshing in its originality but effectively discomforting. at one point, a vacation sequence is depicted solely through excited and dizzying amateur videography by the boys themselves, humorous close-ups of accompanying girls' bodies included. the camera is often puerile and shaky when showing the boys' ventures and conversations.
visually, the filmmaking complements the ideas perfectly. Including the fragility of relationships and the personas we use based on them, fanatical envy and love contrasted against blind rage and hate, metamorphosis, and technology versus nature.although executed in an arguably confusing manner, consisting of many non-chronological vignettes, the film ultimately succeeds in depicting a modern-day story involving the relationship between two early-adolescent japanese boys, their journey through life and school, their changing identities, and their fascination with and "connection" to the strangely popular musician, lily chou chou.
