    The first 50 minutes were very boring, but after going down the mountain, the whole thing was exciting. The outdoor scenery is majestic, and the horse is very handsome, but the duck voice of the princess can't accept...

    In my opinion, this is a film that has no shortcomings, and even excels in every aspect. The horse chase scene cuts several times, and the three boats from far to near are very fast and...

    Different from the previous giant system, Kurosawa's narrowed perspective, using the progress of a trivial matter (fleeing) to express the chaos of the Warring States Period and the entangled relationship between countries, the director is too strong, "selling horses and buying women" carefully It's wonderful, the characters stand up quickly in a short period of time, and the chasing and dancing are really shocking. It is said that he waited for a full 100 days for a beautiful Tianqing shot,...

    The success of this film is not that Mifune's usual majesty and eyes are terrifying, nor is it that the princess is beautiful and deserted, calm, and has royal demeanor, but the pair of living treasures, Qianqiu Mi and Fujiwara Kuzu, who are too greedy. Root gold made them hooked, and since then, they have carried their weight to help them escape. They have never been far away. They are energetic, not only active on the road, but also practice wrestling when they have free time, enjoying...

    No wonder Lucas went to Japan to send money to Akira Kurosawa to make a film, except for the worship and the guilty conscience of borrowing the frame of this film. Although some critics say that the plot of the film is a bit thin, it also proves the innovation of this film in the genre film template. After time, the story of this film has finally become a model essay for this type of film, and even after that, "The Lion King", etc. The mode of outstanding supporting roles and brilliant...

    The whole three-and-a-half-star film is chasing like a horse, being pulled forward without hesitation by a tyrannical force, and the mud and sand are flowing down and sweeping everything. The tension stretched to fullness pulls a large net, and all conflicts are buried. At the beginning of the movie, the two peasants just got rid of the dead pile and walked towards the vast road ahead. The gag dialogue reminds the two gravediggers in "Hamlet". The wretched peasant has a stronger character...

    Archives revisited. How much old Kurosawa liked wide format at that time, there is a shot of Right Seven and Taiping, only half of their body is left in the frame. The two peasants are just like the portrayal of the Japanese, but it is obviously the ideal personality of the director. The appearance of Fujita Shin's moustache was almost...

The Hidden Fortress quotes

  • Princess Yuki: Kofuyu was 16. I am 16. What difference is there in our souls?

  • Old Lady-in-Waiting: I don't know what to do with her Highness. It's the lord's fault. Even if he was lacking an heir, it was cruel to raise her Highness like a boy. Say right and she'll go left, say left and she'll go right. And though she is a girl, she has never shown me a tear. The same with her present behavior. Insensitive to your pain of having sacrificed your sister, she herself doesn't shed a tear, but she still criticizes you. It's too much.

    General Rokurota Makabe: Her Highness is the real sacrifice. Her suffering is having to rebuild the Akizuki clan.
