This is a movie full of the spirit of Japanese Bushido. The spirit of Bushido that is still not forgotten by the lower-level samurai is in sharp contrast with the spirit of Bushido that was lost by the upper-level giants. It is a pity that the true representative of the spirit of Bushido, Tsuyun Banshiro died. By the hands of the false Ii family. This may be because the director wants to express that since the era of Azuchi-Momoyama, the world of war is gone, and the samurai who are senior soldiers are no longer needed. One of the reasons for its decline.
When it comes to the set of the film, almost all the story of the film takes place in the Jingyi family. The exquisite and symmetrical Japanese-style courtyard and the bamboo forest during the duel all have a strong Japanese style, which makes me, a person who has been to Japan, feel a little bit. Nostalgia, and even produced: when to go to Japan again, this time to take a closer look at Japanese architecture. idea.
I won't spoil the story here, from when I heard the one-sided remarks of the Ii family's retainers, I favored the Ii family, and then Ban Shilang told the story behind the story. I really feel that Qiu's daughter is a poor person with responsibility. But such a thing is unavoidable. The problem is that the Jingyi family did not do a good job in the aftermath of the matter, such as agreeing to the request of the begging girl to go home, so as to know the truth of the matter, or sending the begging girl's body. It's time to express the most basic sympathy, explain to Hanshiro and pay the corresponding funeral expenses, and things will not change so badly. Unfortunately, the condescending attitude of the Ii family led to this tragedy.
This is a very good movie, niche and thought-provoking. For people who don't understand Japanese culture, this movie will be a bit difficult to understand, but if you understand Japanese culture, this movie will give you a deeper understanding of that The fallen samurai
