The editing part is still very agreeable, while filming and cutting, only the script is really tired to write, with the crew together to improve the script is also quite good, is a little bit of the feeling of on-set tyrant.

Finally, when it comes to how to teach others how to make movies, he said in a very pretentious manner that "talent can't be learned". He doesn't want to convey anything in his movies, but rather wants to resonate with others, and he has trouble explaining what a movie is.

A practicing director who forgets to study technique can't make it. Oil painting composition. The story of well-drawn characters is naturally interesting.

Japanese cinema is celebrated for its refined minimalist dramas and avant-garde experimentation; it also introduced popular genres like jidaigeki (samurai epics), kaiju, and anime. Across both high art and mass entertainment, it often explores morality, impermanence, and the pressures of modern life.
