This scene makes me tear up every time I watch it. I don't even know why, it's like something gets broken deep down in my heart. This movie is one real masterpiece, thank you for uploading this.
This scene has eluded me for so long, but I think I've finally figured it out tonight. It hit me hard. It's such a fantastic film. I wish I could watch for the first time again. Edit: Will elaborate a bit. It's both characters, Horibe and Nishi, painting their way out of their respective problems. Except Horibe hesitates. Nishi has something to keep on living for, that being his wife, in face of what little time they'd have left. Horibe, though? He has nothing...almost nothing. Painting. When he envisions nothing, that's his entire soul, his entire being stolen from him. Completely and utterly depraved of what little he had left. Perhaps I'm looking at this "incorrectly" but that's just my interpretation. I think there are a billion other ways you could interpret this, and honestly, that's the hallmark of an incredible film, an incredible director, the hallmark of a masterpiece. Simply beautiful, and one of the best scenes I've seen in a film thus far.
Horibe is one of the few characters in media that I’d confidently say I identify with. I love Nishi’s story, but I can’t help but think that Horibe’s is far more interesting. I myself have been subject to feeling hopeless and depressed and I’ve even had thoughts of ending it all. I’ve fortunately never acted on them, and like Horibe, I depict violence and very intense emotions in my art. It’s a very good coping mechanism and part of the reason why I love sad media is because when I watch it, I feel like a good person who’s capable of doing good things. So, thank you Takeshi Kitano and Joe Hisaishi. You may have just changed my life forever.
2:57 To me, this but this is one of the most emotional shots on rewatch. Although that goes for this whole scene, this shot in particular gets me. I struggle a lot with artist’s block and seeing Horibe hesitate here.. oof.. that hits me right in the feels.
I think the flower instantly reminds him of his daughter and his thoughts pause over the grief of losing her. The painting before seems to depict a vision of his wife in a yukata, then when he gets past his grief, the next painting depicts a young girl.

@shaska ocelot sorry I didn't know that. He was a pretty good actor, may he rest in peace.
I feel exactly the same thing…
私もこのシーンで涙が出ました😭
Joe Hisaishi’s music in this scene, not to mention the entire film, is beautiful and moving. This movie will forever be one of my all time favorites.
And the paintings are by Kitano!
this music hurts my heart😢
Beautiful and lonely at the same time.
One of THE most wildly beautiful scenes in all of cinema -- thanks for uploading.
One of the best movies I've ever seen. Such poetry, mixed with striking, aching violence. Unreal directing.
the first time i saw this scene i was hit with such an overwhelming wave of emotion, i just started crying silently.
This is the most beautiful movie scene i have ever seen thank you olsy
Cette scène du film est fabuleuse. Le personnage, les peintures et la musique sont magiques. Merci à Takeshi Kitano.
Rip ren osugi... 😞
He was so far away from the feeling of tenderness that it became something abstract.
i just finished this movie. this is one of the most beautiful scenes i’ve seen all year, possibly ever
Kitano is so underrated, and this scene is just a masterpiece within the masterpiece that is hana-bi

@@SpikeykoaLa44 oh yeah, definitely. I never noticed
Best movie of all time. Best soundtrack of all time
When i saw this movie, in '97, I died. Whatever I was before that day, changed forever and completely, and I was reborn as another human being.
Thanks for uploading, such a beautiful scene in a perfectly composed film. Joe Hisaishi's score is one of the greats.
Thank you for uploading ❤️❤️
Thank you
