10 recommended movies starring Masaki Suda! Innocence like a puppy and aggression like a mad dog!
2. “The light shines only there” (14) Director: Miho Wu 120 minutes
This human drama was highly acclaimed both domestically and internationally, and was selected as Japan's representative in the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and director Wu Miho won the Best Director award at the 38th Montreal World Film Festival. .
Tatsuo (Tsuyoshi Ayano) is an unemployed man who has lost sight of life due to past trauma. By chance, he meets the siblings Chinatsu (Chizuru Ikewaki), who works in the night town, and Takuji (Masaki Suda), a day laborer with an ex-convict. Tatsuo and Chinatsu grow closer as they try to heal each other's wounds in their troubled lives, but trials begin to stand between them.
Suda won numerous actor awards, along with Ayano, who passionately played a dark character, and Ikewaki, who also took on the challenge of a physical confrontation scene. In this work, he vividly plays a young man who has a sociable and good-natured personality, but is also overly affectionate and quick to fight, giving momentum and ups and downs to the work, which tends to be dull.
The scene where she is overwhelmed by her own helplessness, clings to Tatsuo, and they embrace is a famous scene that makes you feel a deep love even though it is fleeting. Suda's puppy-like innocence and mad dog-like aggression that he displayed in this film captivated many audiences.
Furthermore, ``Kaito City Scenery'' (10) and ``Over Fence'' (16), both of which were originally written by Yasushi Sato, are collectively referred to as the ``Hakodate Trilogy.''
