提前一日再相逢

西佳敬（北野武饰）是一名警察，几年前女儿不幸死去，现在妻子（岸本加世子饰）患白血病已到晚期。好意让他去探望妻子的搭档堀部（大杉涟饰），则在任务中严重受伤，导致下半身瘫痪，与轮椅为伴。后来西在一次逮捕行动中处理失当，又导致后辈田中（芦川诚饰）丧生。引咎辞职的他，想着供养田中的寡妻（大家由佑子饰），接近并安慰老友堀部，黑社会紧追着他索讨利息，这一切都令西感到不堪重负。他决定铤而走险，做件冒险的事情，将一切做个了结。最后，西陪妻子做一次没有归途的旅行。

众所周知，雷德利·斯科特（RIdley Scott）与莫比斯（M?bius）曾经在《异形》中合作过，而后者的漫画《漫长的明天》（The Long Tomorrow）也是《银翼杀手》的灵感来源之一。阔别广告界15年之后，雷德利·斯科特今年为轩尼诗X.O（Henessy X.O）拍摄了一部4分钟的广告大片，取名“The Seven Worlds”（轩尼诗官网译为“七重境界”）。2019年2月24日，该广告的60秒版在91届奥斯卡颁奖礼首次播出。显然，雷德利·斯科特又一次“借鉴”了莫比斯，然而这次他仍旧没有提及灵感来源。

大学刚读半年的颂莲（巩俐）被贪钱的母亲逼迫着嫁进陈家大院，成了老爷的第四房姨太。陈府有老规矩，姨太太们傍晚时分要站在自已的屋子前，等待下人送来的意味被老爷“临幸”的大红灯笼。起初因为“新人”身份，颂莲得到老爷最多宠幸，但也因此被其它三位姨太太尤其笑里藏刀的二姨太（曹翠芬）挤兑得叫苦不迭。因为涉世不深，生性反叛好强的颂莲急欲争一口气，使计又成老爷身边红人，不想计被看穿，终败于二姨太手下酿成悲剧。而三姨太（何赛飞）的经历虽与颂莲迥异，却也殊途同归逃不出宿命。

The Kinema Junpo critics were, of course, mistaken to think that Naruse had abandoned his emphasis on women. His next film, Sincerity, features two strong female characters, played by Irie Takako and Murase Sachiko, each of whom have a daughter. The girls are schoolmates, but one (Nobuko) is from a middle-class home and the other (Tomiko) is from a poor family. Tomiko's mother Tsutako (Irie) is a single mother who works from home as a seamstress, while Nobuko's mother lives in an elegant home with her husband, Kei. Eventually, it is revealed that Kei had a romantic relationship with Tsutako, and may be Tomiko's father as well, but he is conscripted shortly after this revelation and goes off to war.This is very much a home front film, in which the women are involved in supporting activities, and the whole town cheers on the new recruits. As Kei is a banker, he is conscripted as an officer. He is introduced brandishing a magnificent sword, indicating his readiness for his call-up, for which everyone congratulates him when it comes. The wartime context is little more than a backdrop to the story of paternity and former love. The complex emotions among the women are conveyed through cutting on eye movements and eye lines, and through the use of the pastoral location.
