The movie "Shoplifters" directed by Japanese film master Hirokazu Kore-eda and starring Lily Franky, Sakura Ando, ??Mayu Matsuoka, Hiroshi Shiro, Miyuki Sasaki, and Shirin Kuki will be released nationwide on August 3 Released. Today, the film's "Hope Never Dies" poster was unveiled. This poster was designed by Huang Hai, a domestic film poster designer. It is also a special edition signed by director Hirokazu Kore-eda that is only authorized for use in China. In the picture, the vivid Japanese floating world The painting style is eye-catching, and the image of the hand holding an umbrella is unique and full of meaning. The director himself particularly liked it after reading the poster and praised it greatly.

"Father" and "Son"

The "Hope Never Dies" version of the poster released this time adopts the traditional Japanese ukiyo-e style as a whole, implying that the film shows the modern society of Japan. The various forms of life are a modern Japanese "ukiyo-e". In this poster, the Shibata family is playing in the waves on the beach. An umbrella is held above them, providing a small shelter for the happy family. However, although the umbrella can protect against wind and rain, it cannot withstand the wind and rain, which seems to imply the fate of this family in the film. And in Chinese, "umbrella" is homophonic to "san", which also metaphors the helpless ending of a family being separated. The family in "Shoplifters" has no blood relationship. Destiny brings them together and love keeps them together. However, this patchwork family is not recognized by the law. They make a living by committing crimes and are not tolerated by the law. , in this sense, their "home" is fragile, just like the umbrella in the poster, which will be destroyed by wind and rain at some point. But what does that matter? No matter what kind of ending awaits this family, their happiness, warmth and love together are real. As long as this love is still there, the hope and courage of life will not be lost.

In the movie "Shoplifters", a group of unrelated people form a family and become each other's most powerful support in this cruel society, giving each other the most precious love. They are obviously a group of strangers who meet by chance, but they show their sincerity to each other. This kind of "bloodless love" is calm but deep, seemingly indifferent but extremely sincere, and silent but has already occupied the hearts of the audience. More than a month has passed since the film was screened at the Shanghai Film Festival, but the film, which won the Palme d'Or, continues to move the audience. "It's been a long time since I watched it, and I'm still dominated by that warm and sour emotion." , I dare not recall it but I can’t help it.” “In a reorganized family that is not related by blood, I see the true love of each other.” “The simplest love can steal hearts, and the best movie is worth savoring again and again.” This is the charm of "Shoplifters" that can make people have endless aftertaste. I believe that after the film is officially released, it will bring a new round of emotions to the audience.
