 ■ The so-called “blood explosion” which punctuates the conclusion of Akira Kurosawa’s 1962 movie Sanjuro remains one of the most memorable and influential special effects in film history. Production designer Yoshiro Muraki would later recall this scene was filmed in a single take. No such effect had ever been attempted before, as movies of the time rarely showed violence with graphic detail. Filled with uncertainty, Muraki worried the blood spray he’d rigged up wouldn’t impress Kurosawa, so he added an extra 30 pounds of pressure to the fluid pump. At the moment the pump was activated, the additional pressure caused the compressor hose attached to actor Tatsuya Nakadai to blow a coupling which created a slight, unintentional delay before the fake blood began to spray, and caused a much larger gush of fluid than planned. It sprayed so powerfully Nakadai claimed it almost lifted him off the ground. His heart sinking, as he believed the delay and over-pressure had ruined the effect, Muraki nervously glanced at director Akira Kurosawa, but Kurosawa only nodded in approval.

sometimes depression is so scary because you stop being able to achieve any sense of fulfilment. a huge part of being human is looking forward to things and having treats, goals, rewards, outcomes that you strive towards. if you don’t have those things it can be really, really hard to find any sense of purpose. having depression is asking yourself what do i want to eat, what do i want to watch, what do i want to play, what do i want to listen to, what do i want to do, what am i looking forward to, what’s driving me to keep going, and having the answer be a resounding ‘nothing’

While going through a brutal depressive episode once, I had a revelation related to this

Being in a depressive episode is like having an upset stomach and being asked what you want for dinner. You’re not hungry, the thought of eating right now makes you nauseous, and no matter what food you think of or look at none of it seems the least bit appealing to you

But, you have to realize logically that you will be hungry again, and your favorite foods will taste just as fantastic as they have before. In that moment you can’t imagine enjoying dinner, you have no clue what you’ll want to eat, and you may even be unable to visualize what foods you enjoy - but eventually you’re gonna have to eat

This line of thinking saved me from the depths of despair, where I couldn’t imagine myself ever doing anything long-term that would make me happy. I realized that, while I couldn’t visualize happiness in that moment, I knew that things had made me happy before and they would again. Just recognizing that that feeling will pass helped me a lot to get through it
