Two Japanese characters on the crater

Two Men in Crater is a Japanese love movie released in 2020, directed by Haruhiko Arai, starring Kouchi Gongmei and Tasuku Emoto, and adapted from a taboo novel written by Naoko's screenwriter Naoko. The story tells the news that his ex-girlfriend will get married in ten days. Kenji, who has been away from Akita for many years, returns to her hometown to attend her wedding.

When they meet again after a long separation, they look at Naoko's photo album to welcome their new life. It is full of black-and-white photos of Kenji naked with her, which reminds them of their youthful years of following their desires and instincts.

Generally speaking, the motivation and focus of watching erotic films is more because we can see actors challenging large-scale nude sex scenes in the film, rather than what we are really interested in is the story itself. In addition, publishers always use slogans such as "bold" and "naked" to publicize, which makes the audience treat it with a "welfare" attitude instead of taking it seriously.

But in fact, an excellent erotic film like Two Men on the Mouth can take nudity or sex, the primitive desire originally derived from biological instinct, as the best medium to express the characters' current mood and convey emotions that cannot be expressed in simple words.

In the film, we chatted, ate, slept and made love again and again in five days, showing that the reunited couple knew that the woman was getting married, but they gradually rekindled their old feelings because they recalled the past time, and finally they were completely unable to extricate themselves.
