>Don't date single mothersThat's it? That's the whole message?
he looks like destiny but with better physiognomy lol
>>25637071She was a widow. A bit different to the contemporary sense of a single mother. Anyway, in the movie she was sexy.
>>25637071>That's the whole message?another strong theme in the book is that you should treat cats well.In this respect it's very similar to Jordan Peterson's work
>>25637102Same hair/head-shape but Kris Kristofferson exudes masculinity whereas destiny is effeminate and söy. Completely different auras.
>>25637560Mister...Banall...
>>25637071The main trust is that maturity comes at the cost of abandoning ambitions and the romantic worldview that goes with them. Giving up your personal freedom to marry a woman who owns her own business and raise her kid is the antithesis of having a working life where you don't know where you'll be next week and a personal life where you're only accountable to yourself.
>>25637539>>25637071These seem like good messages
>>25637587he's killed by her kid at the end, though; what's the significance of that?
>>25637570>@grok switch Kris Kristofferson to Destiny and change the album title from "To The Bone"'to "Take The Bone"
>>25637599Irony. The sailor is "saved" from a mundane life but it's definitely not in the way he expected or those championing the romantic worldview envision.
>>25637071>>25637599Sailor = imperial Japan of the 1940sWoman = democracy/ USA/ western worldThe kid = Mishima and his clique of FascistsThe “kid” is disgusted thst the sailor who once sailed the seas and embodied masculinity is now stuck with an old woman and is emasculated as a shop keeper. The kids would rather see the sailor die a painful death of glory (ritual suicide) rather than continue on being a bitch for the “woman.”
>>25637611this seems right
>>25637622Note that as a shop owner the woman’s clothing items are all foreign from Europe and the US owing to her cosmopolitan nature whilst the sailor’s profession is one associated with Imperial Japan (ex, the many naval victories Japan had over Russia in 1905 they look back on with glory).
