The movie "Betrayed" is based on the shocking true story of Norwegian police who rounded up Jews living in their country and sent them on a ship to Auschwitz. It shows the harsh reality that "I'm not that foolish" is not an optimistic way to think. Such tragedies have occurred many times to this day.

Because of the emergence of SNS, society has become one where criticism is easy. As a result, people have become reluctant to say positive words for fear of criticism. In such a world, after watching “Belle”, I was reminded that even if someone says it's idealistic, I want to be the one who sends out the message, "I want to help someone."

I basically cannot tolerate "revenge," but I want to justify the actions of the protagonist Cassie in "Promising Young Woman." It is obviously crazy behavior that violates the law, but there is room for consideration for the motivation behind it. If you criticize Cassie without thinking, the arrow will come flying back at you. It's a terrifying work.

The question "What is life?" may seem too basic, but it's actually quite difficult. 20th-century biology considered "self-replication of DNA" to be the essence of life, but the discovery of "viruses" forced a reconsideration. We can learn about the essence of life from two works by Shinichi Fukuoka: "生物と無生物のあいだ(Between Animate and Inanimate)" and "動的平衡(Dynamic Equilibrium)."

There are two people who escaped from Auschwitz concentration camp and revealed the truth of the Holocaust to the world with detailed records. I had no idea about such a historical fact. "The Auschwitz Report" is a movie that depicts the struggles of the two people who became the trigger for the world to know about the Holocaust, and it is incredibly shocking.

The movie "Never Rarely Sometimes Always" focuses solely on the topic of "a teenage girl getting abortions due to unwanted pregnancies," while disregarding other various elements. It is a challenging work that drastically cuts down on explanations and dialogue. The silence of the two main characters eloquently tells the story of the reality they face.
