Denis Lavant (“duh-NEE lah-VAWN”) mimics one of these people while following him around Marseille in the 2014 sequel to the short film Walker, which had also starred Lee Kang-sheng as one of these people. A huge apparition of one of these people haunts the protagonist of the surreal horror film The Boxer’s Omen. An army musician who is the lone survivor of an attack at the end of World War II impersonates one of these people in the 1956 film The Burmese Harp. In a depressing close-up from a 2003 film, (15[1])the tears of one of these people stain paper cutouts that are attached to his ears, mouth, and eyes. A boy who is punished for torturing a (*) fish, frog, and snake lives with one of these people in a floating building in the film Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter… and Spring. A group of these people who wander through a forest provide backup for a female fugitive in King Hu’s best-known wuxia film.
