Film evaluation of echo sonata

In the 95-minute film, there are few scenes with dialogue. 80-90% of the scenes are Reiko Kobayakawa's one-man show, but she expresses her feelings entirely by her body movements, with almost no climax and ups and downs. A typical housewife in Taiwan Province Province who is "imprisoned" by life is presented with vivid fragments of life. Her husband has been working in the mainland, but he has been unable to contact her. When my daughter grows up and leaves home, she will go to the hospital to take care of her grandmother for a long time. In the ward, she met a seriously injured and unconscious woman.

The long shot of Reiko Kobayakawa slamming out of the door can be described as the crowning touch of the whole Sonata of Return to Light. The door that has trapped Reiko Kobayakawa for a long time also has various functions and metaphors. This goalkeeper will be a door that will be knocked down in the life of every audience who has a voice for this movie.

Of course, the theme of this Taiwan Province provincial literary film is not inspirational chicken soup. It has injected the gentle and sharp eyes of the elderly into the film market full of youth films and small fresh meat. After all, "the backlight of youth" is just an unsustainable moment. When Reiko Kobayakawa put on her makeup, new skirt and stilettos, she happily looked forward to an adventure. The unexpected encounter with her daughter turned her back into the prototype of menopausal women, waking up from a dream and only fleeing in a mess. It seems that what you can really grasp and retrieve in youth is not material and appearance, but some kind of mood and emotion. When a strange man in a hospital bed holds Reiko Kobayakawa's hand, youth connects them like electricity. (Netease Entertainment, Hong Kong News Network Evaluation)
