1979 復仇是我

影片的處理極為冷靜，對那些較為血腥的鏡頭，基本上都是採取中、遠鏡拍攝，使得在緊張刺激的場面裡產生了冷靜的旁觀者的氛圍。影片最值得玩味的是幾個主要角色之間微妙的關係，其中父親持斧追砍兒子、媳婦進行勸阻母親卻在一邊偷看那場戲是幾個角色之間衝突的最高潮。通過對津岩冷峻性格的塑造，揭示了犯罪者深刻的內心世界和復雜的社會因素，具有廣泛的社會意義。影片曾獲1979年《電影旬報》十佳獎第一名，並獲得了最佳編劇、導演、男女配角獎，還獲得了蘭綬帶獎、每日電影競賽獎等多種獎項，併入選了日本名片200部。

Based on the true story of Iwao Enokizu (Ken Ogata) and his murderous rampage which sparked a 78-day nationwide manhunt, Shôhei Imamura’s disturbing gem Vengeance Is Mine [Fukushû suru wa ware ni ari] won every major award in Japan on the year of its release. Both seducing and repelling with its unusual story and grisly humour, Imamura uncovers a seedy underbelly of civilised Japanese society.

Unfolding through multiple flashbacks, Ogata delivers a career-defining performance as a day-labourer and smalltime con-artist who, after killing two of his co-workers, embarks on a psychopathic spree of rape and murder. Eluding the police and public, Japan’s infamous “King of Criminals” passes himself off as a Kyoto University professor, only to become entangled with an innkeeper and her perverted mother. Five years in the making, Vengeance Is Mine transcends the limitations of run- of-the-mill criminal studies by presenting a portrait of a killer imbued with a poignant, tragic banality.

本片獲1979年日本《電影旬報》十佳電影第一名。

A thief, a murderer, and a charming lady-killer, Iwao Enokizu (Ken Ogata) is on the run from the police. Director Shohei Imamura turns this fact-based story—about the seventy-eight-day killing spree of a remorseless man from a devoutly Catholic family—into a cold, perverse, and at times diabolically funny examination of the primitive coexisting with the modern. More than just a true-crime tale, Vengeance Is Mine bares humanity’s snarling id.
