| Confessions (2010) | comment |
Confessions is a 2010 Japanese thriller/mystery/horror film based on the novel of the same name. It is directed by Tetsuya Nakashima and stars Takako Matsu.Yuko Moriguchi is a middle school teacher in charge of a class of rowdy students. They drink milk as she talks. After declaring her resignation toward the class, she then reveals her suspicion of two students for murdering her 4-year-old daughter Manami. It also turns out that she has hatched an elaborate revenge plan to punish the murderers, due to juvenile law protecting them from legal prosecution. Therefore, she tainted their milk cartons with HIV-infected blood.The film is rife with controversy. Not intended for the young or squeamish, Confessions shows how delicate life is, the ironies of poetic justice, AIDS, parental problems, and many more. Viewers are cautioned for the copious amount of gore and blood in this work. | |

Losing a Shoe in the Struggle | |
| Confessions (2010) / int_16fdd774 | comment |
Losing a Shoe in the Struggle: We see one of Manami's little shoes floating in the pool. In a flashback we see how the shoe dropped from her foot when Naoki carried her to the pool. | |

The Stoic | |
| Confessions (2010) / int_1c5002bc | comment |
The Stoic: Yuko Moriguchi. She basically appears with a completely blank expression that just makes it creepier when she details how her child was killed, who killed her child and how she would punish them. Not So Stoic: She laughs when Mizuki tells her that Shuya loves her (Mizuki) and cares for her and after that talk she walks away from Mizuki and promptly breaks down into tears at a lamp post. | |

Would Hurt a Child: The murderers, especially when one of them knew Manami was actually still alive before tossing her into the swimming pool. Doesn't help that they're practically kids themselves. Yuko Moriguchi, with the specific mention towards the murderers of her child that she does so because the law would protect them despite what they did, simply for their age. | |

Gambit Roulette | |
| Confessions (2010) / int_987be393 | comment |
Gambit Roulette: Yuko Moriguchi planned most of it even if she may not have researched properly. She knew that even if she succeeded in tainting the milk with HIV blood, it does not give people AIDS. However, the paranoia can lead the students into chaos. The most triumphant example is in the end when she predicted one of the murderers would set up the bomb to destroy the school. It also happens that the guy has an Oedipus complex. She planted the bomb in his mother's office. The guy phoned and killed his mother unwittingly. | |

Not So Stoic | |
| Confessions (2010) / int_a8a4b41e | comment |
Not So Stoic: She laughs when Mizuki tells her that Shuya loves her (Mizuki) and cares for her and after that talk she walks away from Mizuki and promptly breaks down into tears at a lamp post. | |

Deadpan Snarker: While reading some of Dr. Sakuramiya's words aloud to the class, two students take their meaning ("take refuge in some other place") as an excuse and leave. Moriguchi simply lets them go: | |

Falling-in-Love Montage: Shuya and Mizuki have what appears to be a very sweet one, all things considered. Then we find out it meant nothing to Shuya. | |

Short-Distance Phone Call: When Yuko Moriguchi calls Shuya on the phone to tell him about the bomb, she apparently was inside the gym all along. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Confessions (2010) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Yuko Moriguchi wanted to avenge her daughter's death (after she also lost the man she loved). Naoki Shimomura just wants to show Shuya he is not pathetic, as Shuya was the first person to take notice of him. Shuya Watanabe wants his "achievements" to be seen and appreciated by his mother. | |
