So many intrigues, so many conquests and revenge, so many massacres and redemptions, they are not worth the fate or the passing of history.

Even the dutiful son, Saburo, who was portrayed as a daring and promising son, could not escape the musket of fate.
On the contrary, the old prince of Hero I died in the right place. After enjoying the flowers and wine in the Plain Castle, he accepted the gift of fate, let him taste being abandoned by his parents and his son, and being blamed by his loyal servants. was taken away by God. He had to die.
At the same time, Akira Kurosawa, who recorded these processes, also achieved his purpose.

Huang Tubaye is incomparably
drunk in his life , but it is a

pity that he can't even taste the last one.

    1. The flames are in the sky, and the world is hell; 2. There is a strong sense of tragedy in Kurosawa Akira's lens, which is an irretrievable destiny.

    Both are historical films, why can Kurosawa make such a poetic and intelligent film?

Ran quotes

  • Hidetora: What madness have I spoken? Wherein lies my senility?

    Saburo Naotora Ichimonji: I'll tell you. What kind of world do we live in? One barren of loyalty and feeling.

    Hidetora: I'm aware of that.

    Saburo Naotora Ichimonji: So you should be! You spilled an ocean of blood. You showed no mercy, no pity. We too are children of this age... weaned on strife and chaos. We are your sons, yet you count on our fidelity. In my eyes, that makes you a fool. A senile old fool!

  • Kyoami: In a mad world only the mad are sane.
