chivalrous spirit

Watching the movie really "raised the posture", it's a coincidence, I watched the two movies "Red Dead Redemption" and "Intentional Stick" at about the same time, and at a glance I knew that they were plagiarized. The storyline and many details, I was thinking about who copied who. Yes, looking at the release time, it turns out that the Italian copied Akira Kurosawa from the Japanese. There are many famous movies in the black, such as "Ran", "Rashomon", "Seven Samurai", etc. Impressive because there is Clint Eastwood. I understand this koan through watching the movie, and I can see from the side that Eastern and Western people have the same understanding of chivalry, that is, justice, eliminating the strong and supporting the weak, not remembering fame and fortune, etc. Unlike our martial arts works, the harmony of Japanese samurai American Westerns do not have any childlike content. For example, Jin Yong's works are about martial arts and love. It seems that the seasoning without love is not good. It is all about this. I think it also promoted people's cognition of chivalrous spirit at that time. There is no time difference between good movies and nights. I only enjoy them now. I feel like I met very late, but I am still grateful for the charm of the movies.

Yojimbo quotes

  • Hansuke: Samurai, wanna make some dough as a bodyguard? The going rate has hit the roof. My commission's one ryo. Which side will you take? Seibei Manome runs a brothel. All the women you want. But he's going downhill. I'd bet on Ushitora Shinden. The inn at the corner. That's his place. Tell him Constable Hansuke sent you. I'd take you myself, but I'm the law around here. Don't forget, now. I get one ryo.

  • Gonji - Tavern Keeper: There he goes again! The casket maker. Only guy in town making any money. Can't make coffins fast enough. It's best not to have any gamblers at all. One boss to a town we can tolerate, but two is a disaster. Only the casket maker profits from that. Knock it off, you bastard!
