Departures

Caught this movie in FGS . . . not the best plot I expected from a Jap production but an interesting one that looks at a more unconventional way to look at death. I am quite fascinated at how they treat the corpse with respect.

But what really caught my thoughts was a common scenario is all deaths....even to real life....the sorrows and grief for the departed. Almost all shows how they have neglected the departed ones and how they used to fight with each other. Then after one dies, the other feels the lost.

I suppose we took a lot of things for granted, especially our parents, be it genuine insensitivity or purposeful cold shoulder. Might be the restriction, pain and screams we gotten in the past which cause an imaginary wall between you and them. Only harsh words and indifference are exchanged.

Its not about who's right and who's in the wrong, yet one thing is for sure. You are going to miss each other a lot if one moves on. What's remaining are just photos that have been forgotten but successfully caught the happiest moment with them.
